DDraceNetwork - general

im curious about how many map finishes + points were collected today

doubt its much more than anytime when an easy map gets released

we just reached (9)nameless tee

00:10

ayy (10)nameless tee is in

00:11

*"(10)nameless te"

(100)nameless t

me coming to raise it up to 12

i wonder at how much it can go

63

raise server cap to 128 feelsamazingman

I can do a broadcast

of what

Anything

00:23

Was thinking of broadcasting the discord

can you broadcast "noby is the biggest troll"

ddnet is number 1 on new and trending on steam

00:29

best game

@Learath2 broadcast everyone to sub to louis

should make something fancier for that picture

a new background would do wonders

00:36

would be fine imo

ye ravie make it

00:36

also pls redo the trailer please please please

Did that broadcast go through I wonder

ok just tell me what resolution it needs to be, too lazy to do research

in all these impressive images from other games the simple ddnet logo deffs gives more attention xD

@Learath2 i got a broadcast with the dc inv link

u can make something impressive and still attention-getting

Gr8

thid bg is nice

00:38

make smth similar mb

00:38

idk

264 players atm on steam

Choose from hundreds of available maps [...]

00:44

thousands technically (edited)

Only hundres of good maps

please make a new trailer that doesnt have block mod in it, thanks

make a trailer that shows some actual gameplay and not weird cascading hammerflies

9

+

ye i want to remake trailer later

i can make good trailer once i install linux

I can do stuff like banners/icons if needed

make trailer thumbnail poggies

Make new trailer quicc pls

zzz

Better trailer more ppl

i just uploaded a low effort guide vid

@louis I could I guess

i guess i'm working on a trailer now

00:50

p.s. if any video creators wanna know a trick, if you set gravity to 0 you can get cool sliding shots on maps

Welcome to ddnet *dramatic shot of a boring part Where all hookers... Get hooked...

The current trailer is a little hard to understand for someone that doesnt know the game

Yes, the weird Teeworlds mods

Remove seasons from perma novice server please

00:52

It literally has an edgehook

remove multimap from perma novice

Its definitly isn't one of the easier novice maps @deen

it literally has faily parts

I've had this idea, but it's kind of a lot of work, to play through all novice maps with somebody and rank them all in difficulty

ok with me

ye i kinda compiled a mental list of map rerates while i played them (edited)

00:53

(for solo)

but doing this would require playing all novice maps, some possibly more than once

I don't mind helping with the short ones

ah

01:00

for a trailer i need a group of tees to do hard maps tho

Test server

replay bots exist

yeh test server could work

Replay bot?

01:01

yes

wtf there arent any empty usa servers help

Perhaps we should create a discord to gather minds to make the ultimate 0* novice

01:11

We need one ASAP

yes

rls tangerine

01:14

literally

01:14

its literally the perfect map

at least save it from the void

its a t0 novice basically

01:14

great for people to learn mechanics

01:16

unlike multimap where people block eachother in a 1 tall tunnel...

01:16

multimap isnt made for 20 tee groups

01:16

should release maps that are made for big novice groups (edited)

https://discord.gg/yTUCHP

Wtf bacon

Typo

01:21

Need a map faster than ever with flooded steam rls servers

@deen enable that you can see other players keypresses as default. this will help a lot with explaining and stuff

hi xd

multimap is not a good map for beginners

01:50

seasons is way better

3

01:50

multimap shouldnt be in q :/

01:50

deters people

hey does anyone know why I keep getting banned, it says "(blacklisted by DNSBL)" i literally just made my account and haven't done anything yet

@jabrone23 are you using a vpn

oh maybe

02:04

ok thats probably it. thanks

ye if it still has an error you might have to ask an admin

@Shyzo but it also adds quite some noise, I'm not sure about this setting :/

It's a good setting for beginners, but yea, probably shouldn't be on by default, there used to be an f1 command to enable it, but I don't think there is anymore? So trying to explain to beginners how to enable it is a bit annoying. (Or the command isn't as obvious to find anymore?)

04:28

People learn a lot from watching other players do parts, keypresses allow you to mimic easier

@Skeith cl_show_direction 1

Aaah, it got renamed. Good to know, thanks

Ok, we can try enabling it

04:30

what about antiping, should it be on by default?

Uh, probably not.. It makes people teleport around like crazy, sure, it can be kind of annoying to try and figure out the delay on the hook, but making the game look glitchy might be bad (edited)

yeah, thought so too

I think having a more detailed options menu or something on startup explaining each setting would be useful? Or pointing them towards the settings

@Skeith any idea about USA/CAN player locations? Should I get a server in east or west coast additionally?

04:32

@Skeith yeah, but a bit harder to implement quickly

ddnet sucks too much without antiping tho

Idk, the difference between 10-100 ping is negligible to me PERSONALLY, but that's because I've played for so long..

ok, so then I'd increase the current server first. unfortunately that needs some downtime, will do later

Maybe new players would appreciate lower ping, but I also feel like they're not going to expect how much it affects them in this game

60 ping was unplayable for me when i started

04:35

even if the other person is right next to you you have to hook a few blocks under him

yes IMO high ping is veeeery unintuitive

04:36

you have to hammer before the tees are close

Yea, a lot of people don't join servers based on ping though

if you're doing throws, etc

04:36

i wouldn't mind either enabling/disabling it on default but i think there should at least be a message explaining to the player (edited)

04:37

what antiping does / how to turn it on if they want to

60 ping is not even that high

100+ u need antiping

05:09

people should be joining by ping

05:09

stupid if they dont

60 ping is not even that high

@plsplsplslol I got antiping from 50 ping

big wave of new players

️

how can i make a sever?

@Lukão you can open DDNet-Server

05:41

its in the same folder as your ddnet executable. if you're using steam, it will be in local files.

05:41

btw this is absolutely insane, a full USA server

ye @louis

05:41

<3

05:42

but seems like most novice maps are too hard for new people

05:42

new begginer server type maybe?

i think we just need easier maps

2

@louis ty, and how can i choose the map?

@Lukão when you start the server there will be a message with something like Password: 4nboe9

05:45

press f2, enter the password in, and you can type sv_map ctf5 to change maps

05:45

you must download maps and put them in %appdata%/teeworlds/maps to load different maps

thanks

we could take some existing maps and make then novice

05:54

something like Solo version of Kobras

3

3

rls tangerine

05:55

actually

05:55

just take solo maps and make them t0 novice maps

Yes

05:55

Pls

also someone join my tangerine server :( im trying to get nobos to join

or make new 1* maps that would take 2min to finish

0* novice with no points, just literal teaching, even if that'd be existing map modified-to-be-even-easier

hoooly shit guys. 200 player on china

maps like zap or something would be good

06:24

to teach one mechanic

imagine still having 16p servers

do they all have disabled chat or just ignore my tipps xd (edited)

yes

china server with map seasons died, a lot of ppl had 240+ min run in the last winter biome

06:59

og nvm it back!!

omg nameless tee number 3 using hook coll

cutest day's of ddnet

@Kicker connection is not so good to China, so the servers seem to time out for us, but I hope for players in China it's ok

2

good day fellas, how was the first day of newbies invasion?

skadi just go to china

07:30

lmao

07:31

to play on novice china serv

07:31

xdddddd

@deen china is ok for me tho. Some lagjumps but i could play a bit and explain NightL how to do that rank 1 feelsamazingman

@ᶰ°Konͧsti its ok for you, cuz you always play like you have ping 500

maybe its a strategy

07:44

super high ping sometimes messes up automatic cheat detection

07:44

07:44

@Patiga nice default skin

was there any planning in the eventual release of ddnet on steam

07:45

to get players to more easily get in to the game idk

the plan was to hope that players show new people how to play i guess xd

i mean its pretty good at how it is right now

+ having the perma novice servers

07:46

and a button for 'learn'

are those new?

07:46

perma novice

the last two things are pretty new yes

i got some crit for the learn tab tho

07:46

when i clicked it, i didnt expect it to take me to a website

07:47

i didnt really want it to

07:47

idk if that should be the default

well its not up to me but imo it makes sense, because the alternative is rewriting a whole browser ui within the client to view the same info

hi guys

hi

i really enjoy this game

9

:D

07:47

welcome

i discovered it by accident on steam

07:48

btw is there a way i can create a private server so i can play only with my friend?

yes

best accident of ur life

what kind of server do u want?

novice

so ddrace

07:48

https://ddnet.tw/downloads

@torskyy slided into that game in 2012 via ubuntu Software center and today im addicted, so take care kek

if u download from this link it should come with a server executable

07:49

and u need to make an autoexec_server.cfg file in the same directory with settings like sv_name and sv_port, and then make sure that port is forwarded

07:49

would also recommend setting sv_register 0 if its a private server

07:49

and that should be all u have to do

autoexecserver.cfg is already in the file

really

07:50

it wasnt when i downloaded it lol

just need to edit it at password for example

well edit* autoexec_server.cfg to set sv_rcon_password and also add maps if u want

i think its at steam too

07:50

this one?

learn2play is thus far best map for noobos

1

When u download the client file it comes with server and cfgs

yeah

07:50

ddnet server

07:50

if u want to add more maps they go in /data/maps

the best thing is this game is so good and only like 20mb

yeah back in 2013 i played it with 35kbs mobile internet speed xD

07:52

as long the server is not that full it works fine

are there 1 player maps tho?

ye

Yes, called solomaps

07:53

Or race

race is prob better

07:53

than solo

if u want to find the easy maps call vote "random unfinished map" and in reason "1" that gives u a random 1* map

if i leave the port 8303 will it still show up in the public servers?

07:54

oh, sv_register 1 is for making it public

07:54

sorry

пацаны пиздец канадские сервера работают

07:55

го в канаду траву курить

07:55

@everyone syka blyat

u

@torskyy 8303 is default port

07:56

sv_register is what makes it public

07:56

i would personally not recommend using this option if ur hosting on ur own network

07:59

@deen thx CAN server gives me the best ping of any server rn lol

Steam is killing it right now

hi @Ama

Hi deen

08:01

Now we only need 3 map releases A month like jao wanted

can i invite my friend to my server if i keep sv_register 0 or not?

And novice maps should be creative or not released

sorry for a lot of questions lol

@torskyy this is the place to ask those types of questions

08:02

and yes u can

08:02

u just need to forward the port and tell them ur ip

08:03

sv_register just makes ur server register to the master server so everone can see it withotu being told the ip

how to forward the port

in ur router settings

08:04

google how to forward port on [whatever kindof router u have]

can i somehow do it without forwarding the port

i dont think so

08:04

unless u want to use a service like trashmap

08:04

but thats not the same as actually hosting

08:05

can u not forward

sv_register 1 doesnt mean everyone can join, the servers have a password by default dont they?

no

08:07

sv_register 1 means everyone can join

08:07

if u want a password to connect u have to manualy set this

08:08

maybe what u r thinking of is the fact that the server automatically generates a rcon password if u do not set one

ah true yeah, switched it up

but again if u are hosting on ur local network would strongly recommend not registering it to master (edited)

Someone please make a tutorial how to respawn, players are rejoining the server or spectator mode to respawn kek

3

how to respawn 1. reinstall tw

2

That moment when all the other servers except South Africa gets new players:feelsbadman-1:

08:15

:feelsbadman-1:

Can we enjoy for a moment that we got hundreds of new people on teeworlds/ddnet? Wasn't really online in the last days and this just seems like a dream brownbear

waiting for this so so long .. awesome .. thank you all who made this true ddnet

1

u gotta force new players to learn the basics

08:21

have a screen that tells them "K to respawn" and "Q to spectate"

08:22

and they have to sign their initials before they can go further

q?

isnt it q

08:22

freeview mode

maybe

spectate mode

i think they have changed the default binds since i downloaded it

i mean i could even make a diagram that visually shows them all the basics
