Is there a documentation on how to do categories for votes, like brutal, novice etc (edited)

00:10

Ok just read something on discord, so I have to basicly create different .cfg files for each category and add a vote "add_vote "exec easy.cfg"" to switch the config files?

yes

I have a problemo

14:27

DDNet doesn't want to open

14:27

cause

14:27

idk

14:27

lol

are u banned

...

14:27

The client

14:27

The console loads

14:27

and the loading screen comes up, doesnt even move and closes

14:28

Also 0.7.2 is SHIT

why

what why

why is it shit

First I don't like the ui

14:29

I like the customisation settings for Tee

14:29

and the gameplay is annoying

14:29

It looks like some chinese company tried to make a ripoff of TeeWorlds

they made gameplay changes?

I played run guy map

14:30

you know the 1 gap thing

14:30

where you rocket to avoid the gap

y

well

14:31

you basically cant do that

14:31

you always fall into the gap

14:31

You can barely do it

how so, what's different

You just fall into the gap

14:32

to avoid it you have to throw another rocket

I don't think they changed anything gameplay related tho

Well yeah

14:32

but this seems like a bug

14:32

or a bugfix

or maybe the mod you played isn't done well

I mean

14:34

its vanilla

run guy is vanilla?

But slightly modified

14:34

no

14:34

You know like

14:34

you dont have any commands

14:34

but like ddrace

the hole is tele? tele doesn't exist in vanilla so it might be that

Im saying that I dont think that its the mod

14:35

because in vanilla 0.6.5 you could do the gap thing

14:35

because your movement speed is so high that you miss the gap

14:36

but here even with great speed you fall into the gap

14:38

What's with https://ddnet.tw

14:39

Fucks sake

what do you mean

ddnet.tw seems to time out for me

works for me

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> works for me, to

14:43

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> o

but everything else works fine

14:43

Whats the cmd thing for flushdns

14:44

found it

14:45

nope

14:45

unplugged the ethernet and still not working

14:46

Maybe im blacklisted?

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> unlikely

What the fuck

14:47

DDNet client doesnt want to open

14:47

and I cant access the website

Maybe currently bad internet connection or other network problem that make your connection be intermittent.

hey guys

14:58

I would like some insight on creating a Teeworlds client

14:59

I already have a fair amount of knowledge of C# and I know that Teeworlds is written in C/C++ (edited)

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> creating the client is probably the hardest part

15:01

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> if you get the protocol etc. running, I'd suggest to create a server first, that should be a bit easier

I've already got a server

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> oh nice :)

15:02

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> can one see that somewhere?

well you can join it if you want?

15:03

if that's what you're asking

he means if u coded the server

oh

15:04

no

reread :P

Do i need to to make a client tho?

why u want to make a client?

15:05

its lot of work form scratch, i bet u would have more fun coding another thing

to have some modifications/customization options

1

then i would modify the client from the current source in c++

yeah that's what i was thinking

15:06

sorry i didn't make it clear

FuckFuckGo (edited)

...

DDNet still not working

it is for me

@Deleted User so you're asking how to modify the C++ client?

Idk whats causing the problem, it worked yesterday?

@heinrich5991 yes exactly that

15:07

and how to compile it

that depends on what you want to do ^^

15:07

ah

15:07

what platform are you on? windows I guess if you're talking about C#?

yes but i also have a linux partition

OH WHAT

@Deleted User https://forum.ddnet.tw/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5765 < this should hopefully work on Windows

okay ty

development happens on https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet (I don't know if you've used git/github before)

DDraceNetwork, a mod of Teeworlds. Contribute to ddnet/ddnet development by creating an account on GitHub.

ik what it is but I've never actually used it for anything other than getting the source code for Unreal Engine

^^

Which IDE can I use for developing it on Linux (specifically Arch Linux)? (edited)

clion altho, not free

oof

vscode is great

15:11

but not a ide

15:11

and its free

15:11

(its nearly a ide tbh) you can get a cmake plugin to have nice code insight

well then how would i compile it?

u dont need a ide

15:12

to compile

okay

you need cmake

and is there a makefile with the source or something?

cmake

15:12

generates it

okay

the ddnet github repo

15:13

shows a bit

15:13

how to compile with cmake

thank you very much

remember to get the dependencies

15:13

and also the git submodules

(that's automatic if you follow the instructions)

what's a git submodule? (sorry I'm a noob) (edited)

its like a reference to another git repo

okay

@heinrich5991 Can you help?

15:19

Teeworlds 0.6.5 is completely rip for me

15:19

DDNet not working DDNet Persian (idk what it is but it doesnt work either) TeeWorlds Official 0.6.5 not working (edited)

15:20

TeeWorlds 0.7.2 is working though

15:22

HAHHAAHAAHAHAHAHAA NICE

15:22

0.7.2 not working now

can you tell us what goes wrong?

I open the exe file

15:22

the command prompt loads as usual

15:22

The loading screen comes up

15:22

doesnt move

15:22

and the window closes (edited)

hmm. the trick now would be to check the console output

15:23

onfortunately it's behind the client window

15:23

*unfortunately

15:23

could you start it from the console?

How?

depending on your windows version, right-clicking in a folder might give you a "open console/terminal here"

yep

15:24

I know that

then type "teeworlds" in the console

15:24

that should open it

same thing happened

but now the log should still be there, right?

nope

15:26

https://fuck.light-the.me/use-stylus™/96rlvt.png

did a second console window open or what?

No second console

[freenode] <heinrich5991> hmmmm

type teeworlds "logfile xyz.log"

same thing

15:27

oh

15:27

got it

15:27

15:28

tried again and got the same thing

I'm sorry, I don't think I know what goes wrong or how to debug it

Alright

15:28

Thanks anyways

np

I'm just gonna try something

15:29

hm

15:30

i tried it in the ddnet file

And I think I know whats the error

16:24

ddnet.tw doesnt want to load

16:24

the connection times out

16:24

so that may be the reason?

oh yea, maybe

16:27

hmm. but why doesn't ddnet.tw load

Yeah I'm trying to see that

16:28

Can you check if my ip is maybe blacklisted?

I don't know a place where your IP would be blacklisted

16:28

can you check what IP address of ddnet.tw you see?

16:28

I see 31.186.251.128

same

16:29

but doesnt want to ping

for me, it does

hmmm

16:29

Wait I think i know

16:30

Troubleshoot problems

16:30

it should say all is fine

16:30

now put ddnet.tw

16:32

hmmm

16:32

https://fuck.light-the.me/use-stylus™/regmtf.png

Embedded image

16:32

god fucking damn it

16:33

Can you screenshot to me this

16:33

https://info.ddnet.tw/info?name=Aca%5E

16:37

Okay now

16:37

while master1.tw.com and master2 are pinging like normal

16:37

master3 and master4 are timing out

that's normal

16:38

at least master3

16:38

master4 is ddnet.tw

16:38

You can send me your ip privately

16:38

maybe it got blocked somehow

Alright

Btw the "I fall in the 1 tile even with alot of speed in run guy 25" bug, is not a bug and it's like this since at least 7 years

18:08

(and probably forever but I didnt play before that)

hey

18:19

so i complied the source

18:20

and when i try and run the file "DDnet" (edited)

18:20

Linux just tells me to select an application to run it (edited)

how do you run it ? ./DDNet in console ?

18:34

i never had to chmod +x my binary but maybe you should

18:38

okay it works if i do that

18:39

but how can i make it run regularly? In the properties it's set to be allowed to run as an executable

18:43

well i don't know why i doesn't work when you click on it, what DE/WM are you using ? there should be a way to create a launcher or just a script that launchs it when you click on it but it won't be the same solution for every DE/WM

18:46

with gnome like thingy you can create .desktop files for example

18:49

with kde i don't know i never used it, with openbox it'll be another method, with any tilling wm you'd use dmenu or just your console, it really depends on your environement

@Fudgy try it on 0.6.5 and then try it on 0.7.2

19:08

It's a big difference

@Deleted User It's a DE called Budgie (by the developers of Solus OS)

19:19

i think .desktop files will work

19:19

but how do i make one?

@Deleted User i mean you need to learn how to use google.. .desktop files have a .ini like syntax, they live either in /usr/share/applications or in the ~/.local version of that directory.

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=/path/to/executable
Name=Name of Application
Icon=/path/to/icon

It took me like 3 seconds to look for that, you can even download an graphical app that will create entries in your menus directory. If the .desktop gives you the same thing as when you click on the binary you just create a one line executable bash script that runs the binary and you point the .desktop to that script

19:29

okay thank you

19:33

I never use bloaty DEs i prefer tiling wms so i never use .desktop files i'm as clueless as you on the topic, you can find everything about .desktops files using google, as i said you can even find posts about your specific DE and how to use a graphical application to add anything into your menus

19:35

so just to clarify

19:35

by compiling the source

19:35

I'm not creating a standard executable?

19:37

you are creating a normal executable by compiling, that's how every binary executable is created (edited)

19:37

then why wouldn't it just run normally?

19:37

it does since it works when you do ./DDNet

19:38

there's no "normal" way of launching executables, ./DDNet is a normal way of executing it

19:38

if i wanted to run firefox, I could install it from the package manager, or i could download the .tar.gz from Mozilla and just double click the file called "Firefox".

19:38

I dont have to ./Firefox to run it

19:39

no, you can run "firefox" in console it'll work because the firefox executable is placed inside /bin or /usr/bin, and your console known that every executable in those folders are executed when you type their name

19:40

your firefox package certainly includes a .desktop too

19:40

well it's not in /bin

19:40

it's in the downloaded folder in my downloads folder

19:40

it can be in any directory

19:40

i just double click and it runs

19:41

what, firefox is in the download folder ?

19:41

yes

19:41

that's not how i run it

19:41

but it's an example

19:41

that i've done before

19:43

when you install a package files are moved in some directories then you can just use "firefox" and it"ll run them, when you compiled it nothing moves around the executable is where you compiled it

19:43

a package also contains .desktop files and so on

19:43

but this isn't an installed package

19:43

yeah you compiled it

19:44

my point is that i can run firefox without having to install it or do anything

19:45

so why can't i do the same with the ddnet executable?

19:45

if you did not install firefox it was already installed by default so it's just like you installed it

19:45

no

19:46

without having firefox installed

19:46

i don't know why your DE doesn't want to execute DDNet just by clicking on it, if it's chmod +x it should do that

@heinrich5991 hey! I don't know if you discussed it earlier, but many players have huge lags on 11+ versions of ddnet client. Lags are gone if you switch back to 9.0.2. I have the same problems. That is a big problem for kog, because some players switched to ATH client for smooth gameplay

@Deleted User my point is that since when you're doing ./DDNet it works, the issue is coming from your environement/DE configuration or something, you said it's already chmod +x so i have no idea, i don't know why it doesn't work just like that i've never used your DE. So using a .desktop should work easily, if it doesn't the .desktop can just launch a .sh that launches DDNet, that'll work

19:50

the DE environment shows the file to be a "shared library", if that helps

19:50

@Deleted User I never said anything about chmod +x

19:51

Thanks for helping anyway

19:51

"In the properties it's set to be allowed to run as an executable"

19:51

Sorry for being such a pain

19:51

yes

19:55

you're not it's just that i can't tell you what's wrong i never used your DE and since it works when you do ./DDNet the issue doesn't come from the executable itself it comes from your DE or something like that, "In the properties it's set to be allowed to run as an executable" should mean that it's chmod +x

19:55

okay

Okay so

22:00

About my problem

22:00

If I click on the command prompt

22:00

it slow it down

22:00

so it waits a bit

22:00

and then i just get a fraction of the loaded ddnet

22:00

but I cant move the cursor

22:01

and in 5 seconds it closes

22:01

So I actually was able to see one server and players playing

22:01

So what I might do is just slap another installation of windows and fuck it

install each piece of ddnet until you get the whole ddnet

22:50

problemsolved

How can I start multiple servers with a single config file, I mean I somehow have to add different ports

23:10

Can I do something like ./DDNet-Server -f autoexec_server.cfg -port 8304

23:10

and in the config file it says sv_port {port}

You are trying to run two servers with the same ip address but with different ports?

23:15

@Deleted User I tried with 0.6.5 and 0.7.2 and other clients

23:15

I'm not saying it's a ddnet problem, it's a teeworlds problem

Why shouldnt I? Works fine

I mean

23:17

It's gonna eat RAM

23:17

and shit

23:17

you know

What would it change with different Ip, its still on the same Server

23:18

I wont have ram problems

It may or may not be possible to run two servers with the same ip but different port

What are you talking about

what are you talking about

Of cause it works, I can run 100 servers without a problem on the same ip with different ports

23:19

DDnet runs like 10 servers on the same ip

23:19

with high traffic (edited)

Alright then
