The Shitty Wizard is an inside joke within the Valve staff. It refers to a single person who is "responsible for all Dota 2 bugs". Adrian Finol, a senior programmer at Valve, is the inspiration for the character. Dota 2 contains many references to the Shitty Wizard. He is mentioned in a voice response line by every hero.

yea seems about right given that the first finish of deen is 2013 https://ddnet.org/players/deen/

deen should know the date

will there big birthday event?

the dude that made homebrew is now building a blockchain package manager to make it even slower than brew :D

Whenever I talked shit about this dude people came in to defend him. Look at what he created...

I was always wondering: why don't we have a tile-size option in the editor so it's possible to map smaller/bigger tiles then the default?

Teeworlds supports only one tile size

Learath2

Hm, what do you mean?

for example, you use a tilelayer in the background with parallax, but since it's "further away" you want smaller tiles for a better distance effect

Hm, is this currently doable? I don't know if we have zoom levels for layers

13:25

It might require a map format change again

We have zoom layers, but it's documented nowhere, I managed to break it and it's unclear to me how to map with it what I want to

wait what you can zoom tiles?

in the editor, yes

how o.O

group->custom zoom, press zoom button on editor top (next to grid)

indeed i did not know that thats fancy

13:30

so you want to se a size of the tile instead of a general zoom? how is that even different

parallax

13:31

you can for example put smaller tiles in your fg

13:31

or do some detail work in different sizes

13:32

or the zoom in the bg doesn't make my tiles small enough, but I can't control it's value

a

and working with parallax and zoom is really REALLY confusing

so you need more fine grained control

13:33

does that thing even work? do clients see it resized in game?

oh no, they don't ?!

13:34

Now I don't get this feature at all

Learath2

Hm, is this currently doable? I don't know if we have zoom levels for layers

Do you think I should open a discussion? I would be willing to implement it as well (edited)

If it does not get applied to the actual map file then it is probably some ddnet editor shinanigan and not supported by the current map format.

13:37

If that is the case one would have to create a new map format.

13:38

when having map format questions always ping patiga he is the guru

does the map format never receive updates? Also makes me question slicing, as if it's also "hacked in"

13:40

@Patiga ping

most of the map updates cause compatibilty break so old clients can not load the new maps

13:42

like for example the ddnet client not being able to load maps made with a 0.7 client (yet)

if you change tile size, it can only be a visual (detail) layer and could therefore be only marked as detail and maybe not even served for other clients (or they ignore it)

13:45

"but Assa, people will draw over gamelayers with half tile size"

serving two map files is actually what is being done with 0.7 maps on bridge servers but adding yet another map format is additional complexity im sure there will be some backlash

The idea is, that you expand the map file format but only in ways which get ignored by other clients, you can't load a ddnet map with a 0.7 client anyway (at least fully, missing layers like tele-layer)

I think you can mostly load a ddnet map in 0.7

13:49

only the tilesets are missing

yea this way is fine but not the other way around

heinrich5991

I think you can mostly load a ddnet map in 0.7

multimap: telelayers are missing, probably other stuff, too. I know from my material experiments that sound layers get ingored entirely (edited)

13:54

So we could just let the clients which can't load a map with that feature ignore a non-default-tile size and force it as detail for now

[ddnet/ddnet] Issue opened: #6394 Resizable tile size discussion (only visually)

One feature I always wanted were resizable tile layers. I want to map smaller or bigger tiles in order to provide more details and I personally worked around it by creating extra tilesets. I also know that a lot of people want that feature, but there might be some caveats:

Adding a sizeX/sizeY parameter for a tilemap might require a new map format
Other/older clients can't render this properly
Gamelayers and other technical layers shouldn't change tilesizes

A couple months ago I asked for a way to diagnose a stutter, I remember getting some good advice but I can't find it by searching :/

16:37

So anyone any good ideas on how to diagnose a stutter with no apparent reason?

Learath2

@Jupstar ✪ for the last couple months I've been getting some very harsh stuttering. Do you have any idea how I could go about diagnosing the issue?

.

Aha, thanks. So I was going to grab an old version that doesn't stutter and use the benchmarking tools

deen

I will be quite busy around that time, so can't organize anything

What about asking some other guys to organize it?

Simon

What about asking some other guys to organize it?

you could do that, yes

20:23

or help organizing something

I was thinking of a maybe a little bit more known person
