Units Database

[oldngrey]

Hi,
Am making a return to FA after many years and was fascinated by the new units in the FAForever client.
However, the units database link on the FAF website isn't accurate, as I am sure you already know.

Is there anywhere I can link to see the correct icons and all the units?

Thanks in advance.

Which parts aren't accurate?

I just assumed everyone here knew how the FAF client units were different to the stock FA game. I'm the noob after all
I am using the table at http://www.faforever.com/faf/unitsDB/

Sometimes the icons are different - eg for the T3 armoured assault bots and sniper bots.
There is a unit that isn't in the table at all - the T3 AA tanks.

There might be others, I'm too new at this to spot all the differences yet. I've been watching Brink's videos and sometimes I am sure I can spot icons that aren't in the table, but I'm not sure (720p and all that).

So, that's why I asked if there was an accurate list of all the units and icons.

alternate db here http://spooky.github.io/unitdb/#/ AA guns included

dunno about icon differences however

Thanks biass.
The icons look okay to me. I like the way I can filter things in and out on that link.

Well, i don't think a "noob" can read the correct DPS values out of this mess:

So somebody should manually add the T3 AA to the old database (which is way clearer IMHO).

ok so the spooky unit db just has some calculations incorrect.

but the "official" units db is up to date with patch 3640 or so - and we cant update it easily because the original creator left and now we need permission.
and yes the t3 tanks are missing from there due to them being introduced at the time and to let people judge their balance on feeling rather than statistics.

but really for most cases its pretty accurate so that's alright. i prefer it over spooky because i think its clearer.

in the end the only really accurate source is the game itself, if you ever get your head around reading unit blueprints and debug hotkeys then it becomes pretty easy to check the most up to date information.

hope this helps.

Exotic_Retard,
Don't forget that there are some incorrect icons too - eg Sniper Bots show as + instead of - and the tanks like the Percival show + instead of X
Since they appear to be links, they might be fixable without source code.
