DDraceNetwork - developer

@Robyt3 you already did so many prs on tw (which is dead :c) but hey, you make ddnet a better place aswell :) Thanks for all the fixes and features

sleeping a night over the account discussion and have to say i still kinda dislike the solution in total. 1. the account lists that would need to be refreshed (and downloaded) all the time 2. the advanced complexicity of how runs are considered authed 3. using registry to play hide and seek 4. trusting only the email and that alone. i'd say a fully centralized approach can do anythign you want while still not being so complicated. 1. a session can have a key pair. so the game server can ask the auth server if the session key is connected to an account and can cache itself how long it wants to trust the session in case the auth server is down.. else it can always ask it. 2. if auth server is down u either once connected to the game server and it remembers you. It could still use the session id to verify if it was related to an account. I generally dunno if this can't get messy 3. yeah dunno, just don't save the key on the computer. problems solved 4. we could make steam authing and other methods a higher priority. I dunno how a forced strong password is worse than sending an email that probably also has a bad password xdd I feel like you want the advantages of decentralized account system. But you don't have them Teamspeak 3 has a one time key, and this is why the teamspeak 3 approach works. If we'd do that aswell it would eliminate especially point 1. & 2. which is a huge mess IMHO (edited)

fast, click it!

e.g. lets say what happens if u join a kog server. the auth server is down u finish a map. You change the keys KoG can't auth your finish player complains the rank is missing. The stupid worst case that might never happen. The player won't understand why it cannot work. Or creating an account while the auth server is down.. kinda sounds scary too

Then don't allow account creation in that case? Could be as simple as pinging the server and or providing an api to check if it is running.

Adding a messagebox to the client that tells the user that the account server is currently offline and that they can't make accounts at the moment makes sense too (edited)

Yeah obviously. But this was something Heinrich didn't seem to want

08:13

Probably BCS it's again less decentralized

08:13

So understandable

I'd suggest using an already existing protocol like OAuth2, so you can for example use Keycloak and federate User Accounts between multiple instances

[ddnet/ddnet] Issue opened: #6458 logfile command not logging local console to file

Recently the "logfile" command doesn't work for me, my local console doesn't get output to the file that was specified in the "logfile" command. It seems like the text file stopped updating on 2022 December 5th, and hasn't been updated or modified since then. I tried to delete the file so that it hopefully creates it again, but it didn't. Here's some of my settings:

loglevel = 3 logfile = innerlog.txt

(I changed loglevel from 4 to 3 in an attempt to somehow try and fix this, neither worke...

Zwelf: ban ^

he can still see it on matrix if i deleted on discord right?

no

08:53

its double sided bridge

08:53

but it says that u deleted the message

User was "iriska"

done

Then why do old edited messages stay

bencie

User was "iriska"

It was a bot

08:54

Someone invited them

08:54

Ban the inviter too

he knows the name

1

08:55

Also can you take away permissions to invite bots?

08:55

Or is that Discord being trash again

they arent bot accounts i think

all users on matrix appear as bot here

they are normal matrix users

just like me

Oh so they did post it on matrix

its the bridge that flags it as bot

08:56

(or better the bot itself is the bridge ^^)

the bot does nothing but generate webhooks and read messages to send in matrix using a similar mechanism (edited)

09:49

the webhooks are what show as ‘bot’ (edited)

we really need them for all channels

09:52

matrix is so cool

yeah

The finish would never be lost though, finishes would belong to keys until the account is resolved.

yeah thats pretty cool, but my point is not that its not cool

I just wanted to say it won't be lost. That's all

@Ryozuki when a client is 0.7 client it will not send the skin json stuff at all?

12:44

some ppl are still missing skin data in server info, but its only individuals

it should send 0.7 skins

ok

12:44

so they are simply not parsed as default

12:44

good to know

12:45

but good way to know which nobos play 0.7 xdd
