Hello ddnet admins & devs So me and a bunch of other people were just wondering about what happened to the account system and if there will ever be one to potentially come. It would be nice to know about the problems and plans surrounding this topic. Especially as it seems like the whole community wants something like this implemented (i. e. the survey that was done in the past in ⁠announcements ). Probably the whole community would like to know about what's actually going on there so that perhaps solutions could be found. Be it by funding and therefore paying the devs if that is the problem or by anything else (depending on how this whole thing turns out), I think many people would be glad to help. Best regards

This is not an answer to your question it's more of a hint I thought I would provide since I can.

I appreciate your willingness to help but we don't plan on reading old discussions over and over again. An actual conversation about pro and contra and a final summary and therefore a solution would be nice.

did u actually read that thread

no I'm blind, I cant read

louis

did u actually read that thread

the last message you see as user without a github account is from the 24 of July. Most people have no idea how to use github or what it even is

you cant expect everyone to know whats going on there. we just want a little transparency and talk about the whole topic and what we as a community of which most cant code or costribute in a technical way, how we could help in any other way

That's the last message of the conversation for everyone

that github thread is very transparent, anyone can add their own comments

and read the past discussion

alright well didnt know that since a dont have a private github account. Seemed like the discussion cut off at some point. but none the less it kinda shows that the topic kinda just died out and we want to revive it (edited)

Github just shows that if you want to add a comment (aka participate in the conversation) you need an account. Otherwise, it does not cut the thread which lets everyone see it in its entirety. But I agree with louis, this thread wasn't created for nothing and its not like it has been several years since the last comment. There have been proposals made in this thread and I think if you really want to get accounts added you should first look into it and understand what's going on (edited)

I agree on this, atleast read the last comments from july. Its even interesting if you dont have much IT-knowledge. But on the other hand the account topic is such a big topic for every player and would be a big big step in the game. So maybe we should discuss and communicate it more openly, not only on the developer side but also on the players. An idea could be to form a small team of devs, experienced players and well established people of the community and discuss it in a smaller group. Write every argument, ideas and plans to implement down and present it to the community afterwards instead of this "chaos" rightnow. (edited)

It’s not like funding wouldn’t incentivize someone ton work on this feature but I guess if you were serious about it you’d have to set up a bounty. Lots of devs have ideas but they don’t have the time or patience to implement & test it as it’s something which would need extensive work in all faces of DDNet rn (client, server, website, probably discord too). Maybe someone with a real draft would finally get started if there was a bounty

01:59

It’s also something that’s not easily agreed upon so perhaps DDNet staff should set up an in-game announcement or something promoting the GitHub discussion

02:01

This really is an all hands on deck situation so some feedback from admins would be appreciated

I remember hearing that deen is onboard

Ewan

the game isn’t installed

I thought it's possible just to copy the file to right path during compilation or smth :/ (edited)

morning

gm

Hi, is it normal that logfile will create in AppData\Roaming\Teeworlds path ?

i guess

Hi, is it normal that logfile will create in AppData\Roaming\Teeworlds path ?

ig u can use a global path if you need to have it somewhere else for some reason

10:37

or change storage.cfg

in older version it's save in same folder of server or client and i don't have any storage.cfg file

10:39

is there any flag to set location of save log ?

Hi, I want to process the local live chat to create an local website where you can process it. To accomplish that I could use a Network Sniffer. The Problem is that I don’t know what requests i have to look out (UDP Port) and I don’t know how to / if i can decrypt the requests (edited)

u can do that on linux with fifo iirc
