- Decrease attack from 50c with 2x vs buildings (3x vs gates) to 80c
with 1.5x vs gates.
- Increase charge attack from 40c with 2x vs buildings (3x vs gates) to
100c with 1.5x vs gates.
This was SVN commit r14178.
- Add 'Siege' to the RestrictedClasses of towers, wall towers, and
fortresses. A fortress by itself should not be able to shoot down a
catapult, it should require some defense. This also nerfs building a ton
of towers and fortresses, which was previously very difficult to
penetrate and led to long, boring wars of attrition.
- Increase armor from 2h/10p/5c to 2h/30p/10c (matches siege rams).
- Increase attack from 30h/0p/30c to 0h/20p/35c. Would like to add techs
to increase damage further.
- Reduce splash damage to 0h/15p/30c from 40h/0p/40c.
- Increase maximum range from 68 to 75. May increase this more or add
techs.
Motivation is that siege catapults are relatively weak late-game, as
they have great difficulting penetrating fortified positions, leading to
both sides turtling. Additionally, this makes them roughly as strong as
siege rams, having less damage output than rams but having the ability
to attack from a distance. This balances out the civs without rams and
gives the ones with both rams and catapults an additional choice to
make.
This was SVN commit r14174.
Replaces glBegin/End with glDrawArrays, GL_QUADS with GL_TRIANGLES, and
replaces glPush/PopAttrib by resetting the viewport manually.
Adjusts GLSL shaders for these changes.
This was SVN commit r14152.

The idea is for siege towers to be useful for siege, but also for
cleaning out large numbers of units. Previously they were very good at
the latter and useless for the former. They should still be very
powerful units, but not uncounterable and massing siege towers
(previously unbeatable if enough were acquired) should no longer be
feasible.
This was SVN commit r14135.
