the new buttons caused me to close my game so many times

07:29

on accident XD

07:30

cause the settings button used to be the 2nd on the right

07:30

and now its the 4th

i think this is fixed

Is it?

07:31

Nope, it's not, just tested it

07:33

I think it only works when you have >20 mins on the timer

wtf is happening to that menu

Lol @deen should home button be in game?

i think the browser mini icon should also be there

the "close the entire game" button in the upper right should ALWAYS remain the right-most option, the fact that it got moved breaks user expectations and is absolutely just asking for trouble

ye

08:57

or option for confirmation all the time

08:57

instead of on kill protection

08:57

i never realized how much i expected on it being there until it was moved lmao

the close game button should still be all the way in the corner there is so much precedent in UI design across literally everything these days that close buttons are located in the corner position

uh

IMO the green news button should be the left-most of the right corner buttons, especially if it's not always there (I must admit I haven't updated to the version that has this change yet, but the change is pretty discouraging for me)

idc if there are other buttons i just dont like the position of the quit button

10:39

would be fine with it if there is confirmation 24/7 (or a setting to enable that)

in these few days i closed game like 50 times by accident

Should the "close menu" button or the "close game" button on the very right, is the question though

"Close game" button should be on the rightmost position, that's the most intuitive position and the "Close menu" button is useless because ESC key does the same thing

unless theres some way to open the menu without clicking esc/some other keybind, the close menu button is pointless

"Close game" button should be on the rightmost position, that's the most intuitive position and the "Close menu" button is useless because ESC key does the same thing

We had to add the button because many new players didn't figure out that escape works, so they rejoin the game or call a vote to close the menu

1

how did they open the menu in the first place???

I could try putting the "close menu" button on the left side

11:28

maybe accidentally, maybe hitting escape

11:29

but this was a common feedback when watching new players, that they couldn't figure out how to get back into the game

hmm interesting

I'm planning to put it on left side now, like this: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/5888

1

that close panel button (in game) looks so... weird? or is it just me?

Ar1gin

how did they open the menu in the first place???

Tbh i also can't imagine it. But maybe the shutdown button is also not the most intuitive even tho i think it is xd

deen

but this was a common feedback when watching new players, that they couldn't figure out how to get back into the game

then i'd say those players have a bigger problem than the menu

12:34

no offense

.

There were lots of efforts in the last years to make DDNet easier for new players to get started with. The existing player base didn't need those, but it's still valuable

Next up on DDNet: UI Tutorial map

honestly I considered an UI tutorial in the wiki at an early point, because it is just really hard to get used to. we had some ideas of how it could work but never followed up on those

Was the rocket changed ?

Pipou

Was the rocket changed ?

Yes it was 2 tick before now it’s 1 tick, I think so it’s way faster in ur map for example

exirus found another speed save thing as well

13:41

@eXirus

Oh ok

13:41

I tried playing the map and I knew it wasn't that fast before

Yea it feels weird af to control it now

I had the same feeling

Your provider needs to support that and you have to activate that to use those servers (edited)

The answer to all the why questions in this game

Even the question that goes: "Why is Stefan so bad at the game"?

We would like to use D tier instead of bad in that case.

@fokkonaut GER3 ddos server is down

you sure? that was Ger2

Since you pinged fokkonaut imma use this moment to say that ger3 is very good now in terms of stability, and ping

@Meekrioz abuse

exirus found another speed save thing as well

Anomynous was the one who pointed out the speed tech on Fireball to eXirus btw, just wasnt able to get a good first run with it as quickly (and then subsequently got demolished after getting a good run)

unless we're talking about different speed strats somehow (edited)

Sometimes while using the in-client auto update feature it fails and tells me to look at the log. I've been unable to locate this log though. Can someone tell me where it is located? Also an idea: perhaps a clickable link in client to the log would be neat?

22:18

I want to know why it fails.

22:21

I've looked in appdata/roaming/ddnet - no file called "log.*" neither in my ddnet.exe location.

22:21

Also no files called "*.log"

22:21

So "check the log" is quite vague honestly

it might be the log you can see in f1

22:24

not sure though

Froggie

@nishi u down for teeish mine 4p ?

yes

it's discarded after closing the client

heinrich5991

it's discarded after closing the client

Well, that's a bummer.

A bummer is, that your pfp is giving me nightmares

nishi

yes

we did it :D

22:58

t0 time

22:58

we lost people along the way but for some reasons a lot wanted to give swap

22:58

so i got saved once

cant join ger6 because udp seems to be filtered?

you might have ipv6 enabled by default in your router settings without even know it it. first good step is to make it sure you have ipv6 enabled in your network card properties: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/networking/media/configure-ipv6-in-windows/network-properties.svg make sure its on like here: https://miro.medium.com/max/640/1*IUIAy0t2KA7LbT582lIVzg.png
