[quakenet] <fokkonaut> im in ddnet 9.0.2 not 11!

!!

[quakenet] <fokkonaut> test

[quakenet] <fokkonaut> or if its not possible to hide just the weapon, is it possible to have ninja but without freeze skin? (like cl_show_ninja but serverside?)

what does sv_high_bandwidth actually do?

@noby send snapshots every tick instead of every other tick

how does this change the gameplay for people

[quakenet] <Learath2> you learn about changes in input and serverside events sooner

07:38

[quakenet] <Learath2> heinrich5991: I have time now if you want, like an hour

should it be enabled by default then if the server has enough bandwidth to support it?

[quakenet] <Learath2> @onby, doubt it will change that much

@noby it says 'for LAN'. not really necessary if bandwidth is not free (as it is on a LAN)

08:45

note that your players also have to support the additional bandwidth

08:46

@fokkonaut by adding a new weapon, you'd need to change the client as well

08:46

the client thinks that weapon 5 = ninja

i am on weapon 6

do you only want to modify the server? or both client and server?

server only

08:50

ddnet 9.0.2 btw

the client doesn't know any weapon higher than 5

08:51

so you have to send a weapon <= 5 to the client

if i send 5 and modify the ninja?

if you send 5, the client will show a ninja

cant i edit that?

but the weapon you send to the client doesn't have to correspond to the weapon you use on the server

08:53

see: the client decides what to display depending on what number you send it

08:53

you can't change that as you apparently don't want to modify the client

08:53

but that's just what the client will display

08:53

your server can keep track of totally different weapons

will the client always show freeze when i use ninja?

08:54

i mean without cl_show_ninja 0

the client will always show the ninja if you send "weapon 5"

so its not possible without client modification?

what is not possible without client modification?

having no weapon or ninja without freeze

the ninja has a weapon too, it's the little sword sticking out on the side

08:56

having no weapon is not possible AFAIK

ye i want the katana without the freeze skin

08:57

possible?

not without client modification

08:58

I find it funny that you call it "freeze" skin as opposed to "ninja" skin

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> Learath2: still available?

ok, thanks heinrich (edited)

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> ok. the question is how to properly support ipv6 with http masters

09:06

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> clearly, we should support multistack servers, that is, servers offering their service over both ipv4 and ipv6

09:06

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> how should the register process for something like that look like?

09:06

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> the server doesn't necessarily know its external ip address

09:07

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> should the server alternate between sending the register command over ipv4 and ipv6?

09:07

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> thus letting the master server know about both addresses?

09:08

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> how should the server detect that one of ipv4/ipv6 doesn't work

09:08

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> what about the masters? with the above proposal, they'd have to be dualstack ipv4/ipv6

[quakenet] <deen> heinrich5991: just send it once over both ipv4 and ipv6 with some common token?

09:18

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> do you mean the "initial register"?

09:18

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> i.e. the servers have to send some kind of heartbeat to the masterservers anyway

09:18

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> what you say sounds kinda good though :)

does tw support ipv6 when playing or its just ddnet that doesn't support it?

09:19

(ddnet ger)

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> tw kinda supports ipv6, but not in good ways

09:19

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> you can connect to a server via ipv6

09:19

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> additionally, ddnet does not offer its service over ipv6

i usually have better connection with ipv6

09:19

it's weird

09:19

yeah

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> maybe you're behind carrier-grade nat (CGN) for your ipv4 stuff

09:20

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> do you have an own ipv4 for your home?

i do

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> i.e. can you host a teeworlds server if you forward ports?

09:20

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> ok

09:20

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> mh

i find it weird too

09:20

but when playing over ipv4 i get weird disconnects, and when i do it over ipv6 i dont

09:20

only with udp

mh. weird but not unimaginable ^^

[quakenet] <deen> when we have both ipv4/ipv6 servers, client needs some net_prefer_ipv6, since some isps provide only native ipv4, others only native ipv6 (and routing problems might be stronger with either as well)

09:36

[quakenet] <deen> heinrich5991: alternating between all ipv4/ipv6 with the same token sounds fine

09:37

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> okay :)

[quakenet] <Learath2> heinrich5991: here now

10:10

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> read above

10:12

[quakenet] <Learath2> same token, alternating protocol sounds fine

10:13

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> kk

@heinrich5991 is it possible to make the name invisible using SetClientName?

you mean setting an empty name?

yes

are you sure you want to set the empty name for everything on the server, including server info, rcon status?

10:21

or are you just doing it to hide it from players using name plates?

yes

10:22

i mean

which of these questions is a 'yes'? ^^

i want the name tag to be not visible for players playing with nameplates on

ah

10:22

then the other solution in Snap is likely the more correct one

10:23

i.e. in src/game/server/player.cpp, in CPlayer::Snap:

10:23

const char *pName;
if(name_invisible(m_ClientID))
    pName = "";
else
    pName = Server()->ClientName(m_ClientID);
StrToInts(&pClientInfo->m_Name0, 4, pName);

(edited)

10:24

and instead of if(name_invisible(m_ClientID)), you can put any condition you like

10:24

e.g. if(g_Config.m_SvHideNameplates)

ok ima try that

[ddnet/ddnet] Issue closed: #1196 No votes in Canada vanilla server

i dont understand what the code does (edited)

10:28

tbh

10:28

but it works

the Snap function?

10:28

or the if statement I added?

yours

10:29

why no {} and why the else?

the Snap function decides what to send to the client

10:30

and usually, the client gets the normal player name

10:31

the line looks like StrToInts(&pClientInfo->m_Name0, 4, Server()->ClientName(m_ClientID));

10:31

but we now change what name we want to send to the client, depending on some criteria

10:33

i.e. if whatever condition we want holds (the if), we want to hide the player name (the line after the if), but if that condition doesn't hold (the else) we still want to show the normal player names (the line after the else). the next line (with the StrToInts) takes our new variable pName and writes it into the same position as the code did before

aaaaaa

10:35

amazing

10:36

okay one more thing, how do i send chat messages now? :p

10:37

if (m_PlayerFlags&PLAYERFLAG_CHATTING) { ShowName = true; }

10:37

something like that?

that's a little more complicated

10:37

the correct answer is probably: just prepend the name to the chat message and live with the extra ': '

with the code i posted its possible but you would see my name every time my chat is opened xd

yes :/

10:39

tthanks so far heinrich

and it doesn't work for chat messages that you bind

10:39

np

true

@heinrich5991 pName = Server()->ClientName; (edited)

11:02

that doesnt work, how can i get it to work?

11:05

nvm

why do u reinvent the rad @fokkonaut u know we have all the stuff already ... https://github.com/ChillerDragon/DDNetPP/commit/e3dbd083c4db43b8505d3f1c637d51158596f300

[quakenet] <deen> RUS disk is mounted read-only, seemsto have some problems

[quakenet] <Learath2> [6106553.048818] EXT4-fs error (device vda1): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 13, block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 8962 vs 8690 free clusters

15:35

[quakenet] <Learath2> [6106553.068101] Aborting journal on device vda1-8

15:37

[quakenet] <Learath2> deen: are you working on it or should I try? both of us messing with it at the same time doesn't sound like a good idea :D

15:38

[quakenet] <Learath2> actually I can't really do much in this case, as I wouldn't (possibly can't even?) touch it while the system is booted

How do I create a timer of 1 second? I want it to start when I shoot and to stop after 1 sec. (having a var true for 1 sec after the first shot)

16:21

nvm xyd

where are the over head emoticons set in the code? so wheres the part that tells the server which emoticon to make?

[quakenet] <deen> I'll try making a backup of RUS and reboot to see if it's fixed

[quakenet] <Learath2> deen: got the backup?

[quakenet] <deen> yeah, rebooting now

reboot is gud

[quakenet] <deen> but I'll be gone in 15 min again, doesn't seem to be booting up :/

18:34

[quakenet] <deen> wrote a support ticket

18:34

[quakenet] <Learath2> deen: well is it a managed server? if not doubt it's their problem as it probably isn't a hw problem

18:34

[quakenet] <deen> why?

18:34

[quakenet] <deen> sounds like broken disk to me

18:35

[quakenet] <Learath2> but it's a virtual server, a broken disk should upset more then 1 customer

18:35

[quakenet] <deen> yeah, so I ask them if it's a known problem

18:36

[quakenet] <deen> I don't even see a setting to reinstall the OS in their web interface, so dunno what else to do

18:37

[quakenet] <Learath2> Oh I see, then I guess we wait.

nice ddos

[quakenet] <deen> ah, found some vnc at least, running fsck

18:40

[quakenet] <deen> working I guess

18:43

[quakenet] <Learath2> did you regenerate the journal?

i have one thing to say

21:05

projectile code sucks

yes

21:07

thanks

tell me how to make plasma projectiles slower pls
