Did you ever notice...?

I knew they were lazy when they made TPR, but when they made TSK they weren't saints either...
Edit: it might be a bit hard to see. I recommend looking at the red/white mushroom to the right bottom of the sword fighters on the left. You will recognise that mushroom in every picture and the trees near it are all the same. The first picture shocked me the most, that two forests so close to each other on the same map are exactly the same.

Wilderness:

Battle for Coal

TSK 11:
And I probably still missed some.

Maybe thats the way forest brushes worked in their map editor?

I doubt that a forest brush would generate the same forest over and over again. As I've also seen several mountains being copied troughout TSK and TPR, I suspect this is copied as well.

maybe they did it because it was cheaper to reproduce then make it compltely new.

I completely forgot about this one. It's so obvious:

It's embarrassing how lazy they were when they made TPR 14 was. Clearly, it wasn't tested (enemies are allied to you, only 60 stone with no stone deposits, etc.)
Terrible mission. Actually, the entire second half of TPR sucked in my opinion.

Interesting find(s). Surprised I've never noticed this before, let alone anyone else. Blatantly obvious! It makes me wonder what else was copy/pasted...

Are these things fixed in the Remake yet? I mean, redoing a few bushes here and there is nothing. Shall I do it?

I, personally, don't think that they are problems that need fixing. Better to leave the original campaigns alone as much as possible.

Yeah, copy-pasted or not, they are a "cut piece". I mean they are as they are. We only do minor script tweaks to make sure balance is right.

And still, some of the scripting changes made in the SRs were unnecessary in my opinion. Changing the food in the storehouses to add fish, for example.

What do you mean by SRs?
