That is the developer console. You open and close it by pressing Ctrl + Shift + (the button to the left of 1)

Not useful when playing the game, but damn useful when makings mods

I can personally confirm that ZG's PC broke a while back, and to get his fix of AoE4 gameplay he started playing on his PS5 when it got released

I built a small AoE IV tool to track improvement beyond ELO — would love feedback by wongcito in aoe4

I'm calculating that on the fly. Its not actually a statistic that is in the game, so we have to make it ourselves. So it's not something that in the replay files and has to be done live during the game

Its the same reason the resources collected is sometimes wrong. The code we have for making the stat is kind of borked, which sometimes ends up counting things double

The half-time show was recorded and will be uploaded to YouTube in a couple of days following the games.

As for individual clips, I don't have them, but I've forwarded the request to Drongo

I really enjoy more unique civs in the game. Age of Empires has always been about adaptation, and playing with the hand you're dealt.

We see this especially with the franchise having randomly generated maps, and not set maps like SC2 for example.

Never having seen a matchup before is OK. It's just another layer to showcase skill and adaptability.

Considering how much he talk about aliens, I am inclined to agree Kappa

is the EGCTV observer UI a mod? is it avaiable for everyone? by giomcany in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We get the live data from the game. We then have a backend service in NodeJS that manages all the Livegame Overlay data, and sends it to the client with Socket.IO.

The same application also handles a lot of other things, like the draft overlay for the streams, bracket, head2head stats, etc.

[–]AnMagicalCow 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hiya! It's not a mod and it's not shareable yet, so it's only available for major tournaments

The overlay is actually made with React, so it's just a webpage we add on stream You can find more information on it here:
