@heinrich5991 how dare you suggest @ChillerDragon try something before asking?

?xd

09:11

is this some sort of joke im not getting

it's meant to refer to you always asking before you try anything or research

nice github finally added troll emote

Image attachment

09:13

oh thats so true @Learath2 but usually before opening a issue i do research

09:13

to make sure not a simple include is missing

I'm guessing your compiler defaults to some old c++ standard

yea

09:19

and cmake has to tell it to use c++11 or sumsin

09:19

i was searching ddnet6 cmake for that but didnt find it

09:20

oh btw @Learath2 send help on client coding. I am looking for a spot to do reset/initialize stuff. I want to requst gameinfo and cache the gametype until reload or reconnect or some other action that might change the gametype.

09:22

maybe i shouldnt have done brew install gcc troll

troll

what version of gcc do you have?

@ChillerDragon i'm noob i know but i try to do my part xD, i try to talk with fanta today but it's disconected

1

@ChillerDragon why bother caching it?

im not sure about requesting it every tick

09:52

for is zoom allowed check it worked fine but ddrace scoreboard was struggeling a lot

09:53

Rant: I hate people who are late to things

12:05

Friend says lets meet at 1300, still hasnt arrived and its 1500

12:05

I spent 2 hours looking at reddit

12:07

</rant>

This guy has the audacity to come 2 hours late and sit in front of me browsing his laptop

12:31

</followup-rant>

true friend

12:44

much wow dev rant btw xd

very relevant

Hi, why won't we add login/register and save user race maps on logged in username to prevent people from finishing maps for other people by changing their names?

First of all you'd already have thousands and thousands of "cheated" times already (edited)

14:41

Idk about other reasons ask @jao

14:41

I'd want the same but I guess I will just be glad that I did everything myself

Yeah true, we can do a check for location and if IP of map finishes are in 2 or more different locations then we know it's a possibility of a cheated time

Haha imagine the work that d be

Unless the people stay in the same house

No way anybody would do that

Just right a bash script

So what about ppl who changed provider?

14:43

What about ppl who finished on vacation

14:43

Doesnt work as ez as that

Tough luck

You'd need a fixed account system and ppl would still share

14:44

See you could do both a script and a fixed account system

14:44

Yet nobody would do that work

14:44

Nobody cares I guess

14:45

Some people are already famous for getting finishes so I guess you gotta live with that and accept it

@justacityboy its not that we have a bunch of bored devs who want to implement a account system. And also how do you handle the existing username to new account matching?

Yeah true , was just wondering

if you want to remove finishing for other it sounds like blocking names. I dont see how that would be possible.

14:46

Explain the 500 users who use nameless tee as their username that the cant play anymore

There will be more benefits to implementing account system, but I guess it's not required just a nice to have

It would ve been nice to have

14:48

but I am afraid its too late for that

I understand

@ChillerDragon lol obviously if we blocked name we wouldnt block nameless tee

14:59

@justacityboy also we dont store ips for more than 24-48h so thats literally not possible

so it would be excusive for a few players only? @snail and why store ips?

15:02

there are 27 players who play active under the name NeXus Nexus etc. I know two Blue's and two ChillerDragons etc etc the list goes on.

two chillerdragons

15:03

you and your dummy

XDDD

no

15:03

me and the real one

15:03

he started playing a few years before i did and plays mainly nade based gametypes

Haha in the real world there can only be one ChillerDragon whoever registered first

your dummy is the real one?

@justacityboy yeah

15:03

thats how things work usually

15:03

i dont see why that wouldnt work here

rip Nexus

if ur name is taken just add a later or a character

or you have a system like discord

15:04

chillerdragon#01

yikes

@jao ye too but imo tw is too small for that

It would work well, just means everyone will start over with times

if we had accounts it would just straight up be better to have distinct names for everyone

kinda annoying for basic names tho

well thats how it worked in thousands of games

15:04

and online stuff

tell me when the registration is open ima register them all and sell accs like Waschlappen/jail_did_snail_eleven/deen for much wowo big money

blizzard has battletags too

now yes

15:05

but i.e in warcraft 3 they didnt

We can still allow basic names, there scores just won't be recorded, it will be like a guest user?

or WoW player names

thats shit too

@ChillerDragon Hahaha

you lose competitivity

Is this the account debate again?

classic

15:06

once a year someone has this great new idea of acc system

Why don't we use the accounts of the ddnet forum?

nobody uses forum lol

@ChillerDragon Maybe it's time to pull up ours socks and start something

Fixed names: People can claim your name before you, you keep your points Non-fixed names: You get whatever name you want, we need to clear the ladder

some people in this community actually only play the game

We talked about this like a billion times

@Learath2 What was the conclusion?

People don't want to reset the ladder, nor do they want to risk losing their name

@Learath2 bridge discord <=> ddnet account whe

15:09

when

I was implementing a non-fixed name account system, but people were so pissed about the ranks getting reset, I just got bored

How do we genuinely know who's name is the real name? Since a name doesn't belong to anyone with no account system

That's exactly the problem, it'd be first come first claim with fixed names

15:10

and I don't want to do that

15:11

What I was making was like steam, where your name doesn't matter but you can know who your friends are

also bridge steam acc into ddnet for acc system pls

15:11

lea

And points obv belong to accounts

What about using email as unique instead of username

tee_thinking

1

but in top5 u see the screen name

15:11

rather than the account name?

15:12

i.e if account1 gets rank1 as Learath2 and account23 gets rank2 as Learath2 aswell, would ranks 1 and 2 both have same screen name?

15:12

when u type /top5

If email is unique in registration and screen name and username could be the same or different that scenario would happen but not often @snail

15:15

What if we have two ladders? One for current system and one for new account system

yeah thats always what i had in mind

15:16

legacy points

15:16

and new system

Yes and we can display legacy points times in game, but have a nice website to display new system points and ranks etc

but we already have so many point systems

top5 I didn't really think about, but the usual idea is to show the account name not the display name

15:22

can't really beat fixed name systems in that regard

15:22

but then you need to accept the risk of losing your name to someone like konsti

Don't think it will be the end of the world if you lose your name since you can always add a number

@Learath2 because when u have an account name and an actual display name, ppl usually put random shit as account name

15:23

coz they only care about the display name

we can put the

15:24

last remembered display name

[5:23 PM] upgradedspicy: Don't think it will be the end of the world if you lose your name since you can always add a number

15:24

lol thats really lame

tbh there is no great solution

Yeah true

[ddnet/ddnet] Pull request opened: #1932 Add toggle keyboard shortcuts button to demo player

16:46

16:46
