DDraceNetwork - questions

@Immortal it's a movement prediction tool

00:01

basically guarantees what you see is where you need to aim

00:01

comes with some player stutters

00:01

since it takes a bit for it to calculate where you need to aim depending on ping

Hey can someone help me pls? I am currently at a boarding school. I want to play DDNET but they have some kind of rules for internet usage, steam, discord, Teeworlds and so not works. I heard that with VPN it works. So i tried it. Steam and Discord works fine with VPN. But i get banned from DDNet and KOG when i try to connect (reason = VPN). Pls help me. Are there other methods than VPN? I just want to play xd @Moderator or who else (edited)

stop breaking rules justatest

They use VPN at school to use Discord

xd

if you have a dedicated ip address then admins can whitelist you

I dont think they will do that just for me

09:27

Why should they

depending on the vpn you use, you can buy a dedicated ip address

09:28

some vpn's come with a free dedicated ip address too

09:28

@deen do you have an idea how to solve this? (edited)

is there a key to change to fulscreen because i keep having an issue where i start it up and it is half off the monitor and i cant do anything about it?

you can bind it

ok thanks

@Deleted User you can either delete your whole game config or if you're able to see the console try setting your gfx_screen_height and gfx_screen_width to your regular monitor resolution

09:35

e.g gfx_screen_width 1920 & gfx_screen_height 1080 for full hd monitors

i fixed it now, but last time i tried doing that and it didnt work

@murpi my ip from Hotspot Shield is 185.171.126.83 but idk if it is a dedicated ip?

09:50

well it does not change at reconnect

09:51

oh the last number changes

@Deathman I'll whitelist the ip range, try connecting again in 5 minutes

wow thx

And sorry for the trouble, I know how annoying this is

@deen i will stay at this bording school for at least 2 years. it would be sad if i could not play ddnet for 2 years xd

I've been suggesting to make the vpn rule weaker

09:54

I think it's preventing too many players from joining

09:54

but I'm not sure about the tradeoff, since many blockers will try to use VPN to keep blocking

i can understand why it was added. but yeah it is annoying for people like me

09:56

but still thx for whitelist

does it work?

hm it still says that i got banned for 10 minutes. Maybe i need to wait 10 minutes

@Deathman still unable to play?

yes xd

@deen

idk if this goes in mapping or not (im new so im sorry if it does) but how do i change maps when im hosting my own server, because right now all i can host is gold mine.

you need to add other maps in {server_directory}/maps

11:10

and then type change_map {mapname} in F2

wait so i load up the ddserver then do that

if you have another maps, so, type change_map {mapname} into console (edited)

in the ddserver console

11:12

ddnet-server*

o

launch ddnet and join your server

ok

type password and then you can change map

im sorry where do i type my password

11:14
