DDraceNetwork - mapping

For me this is just A problem with old maps

06:11

As nobody uses blue tele Anymore just for specific parts

[Serious] Why are Kobra maps so popular?

They are long and relatively easy

@Blade maybe because it is the default map that comes when u launch a server without any config options

08:42

it comes with that map and the default map is also kobra

so people play them for a long time, others see relatively full server, so new players join

08:43

@noby actually we don't ship Kobra anymore

rly :o

08:43

whats default now

That's an interesting point noby

i know it was default for a long time

and the map was popular before we started shipping it

oh

I specifically requested maps like that from Zerodin, because long and easy maps will be popular

Well it's not easy for noobs yet they still play it and spend 100+ minutes. You're probably right though deen, as players are on there for a long time it has more visibility in the server list

imo its way too long (and as a new ddr player i always fail it)

that's how it's supposed to be. need to take a few days of practice to finish it

hard

08:46

someday ill finsh it :X

@noby wanna finish it together? :p

someday when im ~~high~~ patient and skilled enough

1

Nah, more like in half hour max

09:33

I will teach u or possibly drag thru ^^

come play fng instead

09:41

@noby If I play fng for a while, you come play Kobra?

sometime probly

09:51

its like 5am so not tn

.-.

09:53

right, I keep forgetting

but maybe idk actually xd

what does it mean if a tileset is "not divisible with 16"?

the height and width of tileset images must be multiples of 16

18:28

this is the tileset

18:28

can someone modify it so it isn't bugged?

^ image has a width and height of 600

I mean it works just fine in game, it just gives me a warning it 'might' cause visual bugs

im not sure what kind of visual bugs this might cause, my best guess is that flickering on multimap

why dont we autoscale it

do you have a tool for it?

no but it should be implemented imo

maybe its better to require the mapper to input a correct image, since its probably just going to get blurry in the scaling process with undefined edges

it does autoscale it

this one's better anyway

but we cannot predict what pixels are for what tile

18:34

if its not a clean tilemap

why does it show a warning if it autoscales it then

bcs the map is buggy

but it wont cause visual bugs

it will

18:35

as i said

it will look ugly

18:35

but it wont cause bugs

u wont know what pixels are meant for what tile

it might *

imagine u have 17pixels in a row, but have 16 tiles in a row
