DDraceNetwork - general

@Laeni I understand why they made it like that. Learning how to hook well took me a few years in Teeworlds, and usually you don't want your players to feel frustrated for a few years before they can start playing properly

07:59

My idea for hookrace was also to simplify the hook aiming

That would kind of destroy the long term motivation tho.

What?? Impossible game mechanics that are almost impossible to master are the best!!!!!

08:24

Why do you think i play dd

Tw hook is best hook

Vanilla Teeworlds is best Teeworlds.

10:26

Or DD and FNG perhaps

Or XXLcityTOWN64++ perhabs

11:02

xD

Naow

11:20

Say I (edited)

Waking up and realizing I've lost all my Teeworlds related files

11:46

11:47

Goodbye maps, and skins, and gameskins

11:47

Also my many clients

what happened?

@Holi reload back up

I don't know

12:00

I woke up and turned on my pc

12:01

And it was completely reset, no login profile, default applications

my settings were reset too yesterday for some reason

That's why you back up your settings.cfg

i've a backup for everything exept the friendlist

No, I lost almost all of my files, not just for Teeworlds

12:04

I've lost over 16k osu beatmaps as well

Aren't you using a temporary user (if you are in Windows) ?

I was the only user able to login

@jao rip friendlist hahahaha

Registry issues um Windows usually make you start in a temp user, and your files are preserved in the old home folder

12:06

um->in

I'll check when I get home

12:07

But I need to upgrade my PC soon, I'm running a Dell from 2012

Huh? But friends are in settings.cfg (edited)

@Kyosuke

ye ddnet should just follo da wae

@Holi before you destroy everything, mind uploading your downloadedmaps for me? :>

There's nothing in there

13:46

I'm also in school right now

@deen I understand the motivation behind simplifying the hooking mechanics, and Remnants is definetely easier to learn, however that sacrafices a significantly higher skill ceiling. I would guess that more than 90% of all teeworlds maneuvers would not be possible with remnant-esque hooking. However: Remnant, through a dash mechanic reintroduces skill somewhere else so i guess that it might balance out in the end. Anyways, thanks for the input

There is nothing quite like Teeworlds, and there never will

[5:47 AM] Miza: Also my many clients :ban:

@Laeni well, my idea was for the hook to automatically aim for interesting points. Basically an aimbot for hook to make cooler moves easier

15:04

and you could of course switch between selected points or hook somewhere manually

ban deen

Removing pixel perfect hooking basically kills ddrace

@deen interesting idea for a beginner's mode, although introducing interesting points would likely, on many maps, reduce the amount of ways you can finish a part with the assisted mode on. with some fleshing out this might bea a great idea though, as I feel like any learning tools for ddnet would be great for newcomers.

ddnet tutorial

™️

what did ddos, it's not GER Server, only Fun xD

@jao is these all the tutorial maps from top server? i hope its for once a real tutorial that explains really the basics like freeze means you cant move and only 3 secs after coming out, and such stuff

you think the one on top doesn't fulfil that purpose?

it had no design and i couldnt tell from the gameplay.... so does it?

18:11

i btw meant that all other tutorial maps became very hard very quickly.. like "this is hookable"...... "now do a edgehook"

xd

18:12

you probably didn't see the correct map

there were several that said something like tutorial. can i get a sneak peak? ;)))

"Tutorial"

18:15

i don't know if they will ever finish it tho

b-but you said comming soon :/

Let the community help mapping, how hard can it be to finish it

;-;

very hard
