DDraceNetwork - mapping

there is a map with minimap already

battlefield

@Lady Saavik which mod shows players on minimap?

Ah, found maps. it used clever parallax trick but showed only current player's position.

So it was a navigator minimap, not a radar one like mine.

how do you test ddrace maps before submitting them? @louis (edited)

and they're just playing map and if bug found -> report

open a lan server by pressing run server in the main menu

17:11

a black box should open with the password

17:11

on the browser, go to LAN tab and join ur server

17:11

press f2 and type in the password

17:12

then you can type sv_map mapname in f2 to change the map

wow thanks!

that could be pinned to this channel (edited)

I think that would save some time to the next person answering this very question

Lol it worked. I have never played one of my own maps

@PopCorn181 no way really.We couldnt tell

@PopCorn181 id recommend when your on that LAN server to open editor so u can make small changes while you test, type "reload" in f2 to update those changes

20:36

you can also type super / unsuper in f2 to help get around the map faster (infinite jumps and wont get frozen or teleported) (edited)

is it possible to move the "Proof" border?

21:05

its out of place by a mile and its very annoying

@PopCorn181

@Дядя Женя Next release will make this a bit easier btw: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/3128

Add add_map_votes command for easier local map testing by def- · Pu...

No need to tell new players how to manually add a vote or load a map from rcon

1. Open your ddnet client folder 2. Open file autoexec_server.cfg 3. set sv_rcon_password "YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE" to something simple you can type fast and remember 4. set sv_map "YOUR_MAP_NAME_HERE" to any map name that you're saving to. So it will load this map automatically when starting the server. I'd recommend using any buffer-name, so you can save new map with that name, run the server, try it. If you don't like it at all - just rewrite the file with a new map on other day. If it's ok for you - continue mapping and save it with real name after. 5. use reload command in F2 (rcon console) to reload the map if you made any changes in editor (remember to save changes in editor before doing reload) (edited)

@deen generating vote-list automatically? (edited)

yes

@deen anyway I don't care 'cause every time I try to make a map I'm stuck with trying to make somewhat non-ugly design and fail

Curious, if there are people who would be happy to make visuals for existing map with all the game layers set up
