Age of nations (Lua RTS Project) is being updated

Hi guys,
i'm currently updating my RTS Homebrew project Age of nations.

http://www.tofup.com/image/2603.jpeg

New features and Screenshots

* The Player has ressources to manage: Food, Wood, Gold.
* Possibility to create new units: Each units created requires a certain quantity of food, which reduce food ressources.
* Each units created is independant from others.It has its own health, his own job, and many other things.
* The Population Limit is fixed to 20 units.
* Each unit can look for food, look for wood on a map, to increase the player ’s ressources.Just give him the order.
* All natural ressources such as wood and fruits are limited.When all fruits were taken on a tree, it disappears from the map.
* Many others features are being coded.Just come back sometimes to be informed, and see new screenshots of the game.

Note: Those who want to make beta-test are welcomed.Just leave a comment and contacts for response.

Wow, I think I remember seeing this before. (Correct me if I'm wrong) but it has made progress from other LUA coded RTS to say the least. I have further progress is made until you have a fully playable RTS at your hands! ;)

I use it all the time.
The lua based sh** you're talking about is the stuff coded by complete newbs that don't know what they're doing.
There are alot of great lua games.

I also don't see anywhere on here that it's even coded in lua.

Are you serious?

I know sometimes some projects in LUA appear somewhat useless, but not this one by far! I mean yeah there has been LUA "Ports/remakes" oh games but they only get so far. This project however is showed massive progress in so little time...

...I'm not wanting to push the coder in anyway, but I think we have a PSP RTS coming to our hands. ;)

Thank u OjDon.I'm sure it won't be easy, but i"ll make something really good.I release it with the source code, because what i want other coders to increase the work.

Alright so back to the subject:

New Update:
- The Player can Build Towers
You select the Player and thus select the tower building icon.See what this requires as ressources.

http://www.tofup.com/image/2663.jpeg

the tower building is ended.Now units proceed to other tasks.

See the current tower skills

Last new features:

The player can create 4 types of units
- Peasants
- Soldiers
- Archers
- Riders
http://www.tofup.com/image/2667.jpeg

There's still a lot of things to fix on the code, but nothing that i can't overcome...from now on :Jump:. Release will be for this evening i guess, or tomorrow.I do thanks all of you who've encouraged me and gimme advises, and all beta-testers.

I will not encrypt the source code.Any developer can have alook at it and if anyone has a great idea to simplify the code, or add nice updates, he may jut lemme know by PM.

Thanks all.

I found a bug! I dont know if you know this one... you probably do, but: when you press on wood, well, at least if you press it first, you cant click any other object!
