Hello, I've got a new update live for Soil. This time it is possible I have finally fixed multiplayer, replays, some other bugs, and that's about it for this update.
Here's hoping I won't see any "determinism test failed" events on server

This new update introduces "sensors" mechanic, coupled with new long-range attack order, alongside some new models and bugfixes. You can now also wishlist (but not download yet) Soil on steam. store.steampowered.com/app/4173780/...

This update's main feature is added support for modding and translations. Soil now also has option to use AppData/Local folder for saves and settings or "portable" like until now, surely an exciting feature...

Huh, seems like copy-pasted link to older video, and that for some reason doesn't display preview correctly? Anyway, here is the latest

Under the hood it runs on this library enet.bespin.org (reliable UDP). On top of that most of what is sent is player's orders, which is just the "deterministic lockstep", so I wouldn't go as fas as "invented"
Yes, custom. It started as a learning project, so I went that way. Using one of the big engines would be much faster though :)
This update includes new campaign mission, space shockwaves and gas rendering optimizations, alongside other smaller improvements.
