🎉 Features 🎉
Alliance System (Thanks to @Boobcat)
- /ally <player name> to send an alliance request to another player
- /allyconfirm <requester name> to accept an alliance request
- /disband <player name> to end an alliance (after a 30s delay)
- Allies are shown as blue in unit/building highlights and the minimap
- Allies win and lose together
- Allying a player will not automatically ally you with their allies
- Effects that don't friendly fire like creepers should also not affect allies
- You can still force attack allies using A + left-click
Translation Compatibility (Thanks to @PROMETHIA)
- Added language support for:
- Danish (da_dk)
- Polish (pl_pl)
- Russian (ru_ru)
- Ukrainian (uk_ua)
- Brazilian Portuguese (pt_br)
- Chinese (Simplified) (zh_cn)
- Chinese (Traditional) (zh_tw)
- Some languages may not yet have support for Alliances since it was just added
- If a string in your language is not available, it will default to English
- Due to a difficult-to-resolve bug, you must restart your client when switching languages for it to take effect
- If you would like to contribute translations, please see the localisation channel and the pinned posts
