Ddnet becomes virtual machine when (edited)

When can we run ddnet on templeOS

you need to prayOS first

use arch

Linux Mint is cool

It’s a bit cringe to use kali as a daily driver imo :DWhy do you ask? (@ᴿᵉˣᵉᴺ)

I just asked, but I know the problem can't be solved anymore.

@deen can you try again with my last two comments? https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/5599

i was searching to know if there was a tool that showed the most optimal way to order fields to avoid unnecesary paddings etc for c++ structs, like rust does this automatically, and thats why u need repr(c), and i found a SO answer from the guy i mentioned the other day that knows shit load about asm: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56761591/how-do-i-organize-members-in-a-struct-to-waste-the-least-space-on-alignment (edited)

the world sure is small

15:20

c++ not guaranting long to be 64 bit and stuff sure is hell

15:20

for this to be portable

You can use fixed width integer types if it's important to your application

i guess, i was mostly curious anyway not doing any real thing

Ah

actually i wondered if our protocol structs could be optimized

15:24

by reordering the fields

15:24

which would probs break compat

Protobuf when?

actually thought about this

15:27

we can use it for ddnet 2.0

i also finally understood the atomic seqcst and stuff thanks to this https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/atomics.html

Atomics - The Rustonomicon

The Dark Arts of Advanced and Unsafe Rust Programming

15:30

never rly looked into it before

15:31

and i found a funny text there

15:31

Rust pretty blatantly just inherits the memory model for atomics from C++20. This is not due to this model being particularly excellent or easy to understand. Indeed, this model is quite complex and known to have several flaws. Rather, it is a pragmatic concession to the fact that everyone is pretty bad at modeling atomics. At very least, we can benefit from existing tooling and research around the C/C++ memory model. (You'll often see this model referred to as "C/C++11" or just "C11". C just copies the C++ memory model; and C++11 was the first version of the model but it has received some bugfixes since then.)

>

Trying to fully explain the model in this book is fairly hopeless. It's defined in terms of madness-inducing causality graphs that require a full book to properly understand in a practical way. If you want all the nitty-gritty details, you should check out the C++ specification. Still, we'll try to cover the basics and some of the problems Rust developers face.

ddnet 2.0?

Voxel

ddnet 2.0?

my theorical version of ddnet written in rust that breaks all compat

15:31

and that will never exist

has it been decided yet if the useless new shields are gonna stay? the new layout of extras.png depends on this a bit

@Ravie are the HUD and Extras finalized, or does it need more visual changes? Teeskins needs a clarification before we do changes.

@Cellegen there will be a change soon, we're planning to merge some stuff into a single image

Okay, notify us if it's finalized

15:50

also where did you guys localize the basic assets of each category? (hud, extras, gameskin, etc)

@Cellegen where the default are or where to put custom?

the defaults obviously, since you see the custom ones

15:57

I have beta

default is in data folder where the game is installed

[ddnet/ddnet] Issue opened: #5652 Inputs while speccing and GAMEINFOFLAG_BUG_DDRACE_INPUT

From what I can see, this flag is used to tell the client not to send inputs while specinfo is active, and that it should not reset inputs while chat is opened. I dont send this flag on my server to be able to use "click to spectate" feature from 0.7 because it's very helpful and intuitive. Is there a way we could send inputs while specinfo is active without losing the ability to set inputs to "hold" when using chat or /pause? Maybe a separate set of input data, used for spectating?

oh... perhaps the Assets Directory shouldn't be linked to the appdata's teeworlds folder, but to the main directory instead

16:23

let alone, should be efficient to abandon local directory entirely

Cellegen

oh... perhaps the Assets Directory shouldn't be linked to the appdata's teeworlds folder, but to the main directory instead

what is the main dictonary for you? ddnet?

16:25

or client?

steamapps directory -> common -> steam's ddnet -> etc

16:25

the data directory is where i point at

16:26

this is what the Assets Directory button shows, where all the custom assets may go to

16:26

but then if you want to search for the basic assets, you have to use the main directory

so the default assets should be "installed" to appdata?

no, rather it should be installed inside the Assets folder on the main directory like this:

16:28

for better accessibility

that wont happen

the steam directory is often in Programm Files (x86). So it might require admin permission to write there.
if client updates it might overwrite your customizations
if u uninstall the game everything is gone

shouldn't be difficult to make the folders and preload them from there, if c++ won't have any performance issues with it

16:29

oh

generally never use the client data dir

Then how other games deal with that?

what games?
