Package: warzone2100 Version: 2.3.4-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream Apparently, many 2.3.2 versions had a bug that effectively ignored armor throughout the game. This obviously is unfair, as it makes armor research a wasted effort. This also caused weapon balancing in the game to become badly influenced, for example rendering machine guns much more powerful than they were supposed to be.
>From 2.3.6 release announcement: "This one fixes the armor that was ignored since 2.3.2, crashes when using translations and several other problems (see below)." May I suggest an update of warzone2100 for the release, as version 2.3.4 has severe gameplay deficits, and after all no other application is depending on warzone2100? Backporting just the armor fix will not work, as weapons balancing had been adjusted in the meantime; just re-adding the armor will likely break weapons balancing the other way then! Also there are additional fixes, including some crashers, in 2.3.6 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages warzone2100 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-10 GCC support library ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 7.9+repack-1 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libglc0 0.7.2-4 QuesoGLC GLC implementation ii libglee0d1 5.4.0-1 extension loading library for Open ii libglu1-mesa [libglu1] 7.9+repack-1 The OpenGL utility library (GLU) ii libogg0 1.2.0~dfsg-1 Ogg bitstream library ii libopenal1 1:1.12.854-2 Software implementation of the Ope ii libphysfs1 2.0.1-2 filesystem abstraction library for ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime ii libpopt0 1.16-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.14-6.1 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-10 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtheora0 1.1.1+dfsg.1-3 The Theora Video Compression Codec ii libvorbis0a 1.3.1-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libvorbisfile3 1.3.1-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii warzone2100-data 2.3.4-1 data files for warzone2100 Versions of packages warzone2100 recommends: pn warzone2100-music <none> (no description available) warzone2100 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
