>There’s usually only “one” direction to counter being chased
Depends where the opposite direction is leading to. It could lead to a pocket made from map features or buildings, or a combination of both. Or it could be another group of enemy units waiting. If you end up in a place like that the only way to escape is running towards the chaser. Another problem is that you want to be running in the clear Usually you’re moving a group of units not just one, that means your units need lots of space to pass all at once if the chase is taking place in a base. If you don’t have enough space a queue is created and the enemy will catch up with you.

For that matter, there are more than "8" directions.
The part included in "avoiding", includes "threat assessment"; which then yields the most obvious line of retreat.
"Dispersed" troops do not move in an orderly manner, and based on the type of dispersion, are "out of command" for a particular amount of time.
And if the second is too close, they then too get dispersed when the first line breaks.
The idea that "they'll have lots of space" is counter to the whole concept maneuvering and how to pass defiles.

When games like this are "free for a week", it's never clear to me whether that means you have a week to get it for free (and then keep playing whenever), or it means it stops working after a week.
I've seen both, and they never really make the distinction all that clear...

Epic has an ongoing "free game of the week" program. The games they feature are free to download for that week. The game does not have any time bombs, and will keep working after the week is up. At least, that's been the case so far.

With Epic, "Free" means "It's on offer for one week, but if you buy it and pay us nothing during that week, it's yours to keep and download when you want to".
I got GTA V that way some years ago.

With Epic it works like Steam with offers like this. The offer is good for a week, and if you take advantage, you get the license indefinitely and can even redownload it later. It's added to your "Epic Games Library" and available for download to you in perpetuity.

Pausing to highlight all the guards along the way is a nice touch, and should be a great help for the noobs.

I wonder how much money they are spending on this? I guess the point is to get people on the Epic store, but in my case its not really working, since I generally just take the key and unlock the game in steam

I don't see an appropriate forum for this. I'll move it if there's one.
I'm brand new to CI with Github, so forgive my ignorance.
I'm trying to upload a file to AWS S3. Here's the script:
name: Deploy
on:
workflow_call:
jobs:
deploy-development:
name: Deploy to S3 Releases directory (client_builds)
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
timeout-minutes: 20
environment:
name: Development
url:
steps:
- name: Configure AWS Credentials
uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v1
with:
aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
aws-region: eu-west-1
- name: Create Output Directory
run: mkdir output
- uses: actions/download-artifact@v3
with:
name: MyUpload
path: ${{ github.workspace }}/output/
- name: Rename output files
run: |
cd output
for f in ; do mv "$f" "${f%.}-${GITHUB_REF/refs/tags//}.${f##*.}"; done
- name: Upload installer to s3
run: aws s3 cp output
The very last line:
run: aws s3 cp output
fails with "Unknown options: s3://client-builds/releases/".
This script has not changed, so I'm not sure what's wrong.
Can someone shed some light?

I don't understand. Isn't that was my script is using??

This is part of an actual production powershell script that I use for recursively uploading documents from a local directory to S3 using AWS CLI in Powershell (of course). I refactored it to use your variable values.
$localdir = output
$bucketname = "s3://client-builds/releases/"
& aws s3 cp $localdir $bucketname --recursive --profile YourProfileNameHere

Thanks. That looks like it's just doing the same thing.
One thing I think I figured out is that this part
steps:
- name: Create Output Directory
run: mkdir output2
<ul>
<li>uses: actions/download-artifact@v3
with:
name: Line2-Win-Next
path: ${{ github.workspace }}/output2/
doesn't seem to be creating the output folder.
When I removed the wildcard asterick from the last line, the error message changed to
upload failed: output/ to s3:
Question: In this step
steps:
- name: Create Output Directory
run: mkdir output2
Running on linux. From this script, is it possible to see if that folder exists, and if so, its contents?
