How do you solve #matchmaking for an unknown Open-Source game? We are currently trying an IRC based chat mode that is bridged into #Discord and @matrix so players can organize matches with a bot announcing them. Thanks to @freegamedev for hosting.

I hereby announce a new stable release of https://OpenHV.net If you ignore the 23 release candidates over the 2 year development span than the previous release looks like a mere prototype. This version has more content, polish and contributors. It feels like a real #RTS game from the #90s with a few modern twists.

We just released https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=openra.vscode-openra-lua version 1.0.0 which adds full IDE support to write custom #Lua scripted missions for OpenRA.
