DDraceNetwork - announcements

You might have noticed that the statistics displayed by @DDNet in the generated points, profile, and map imagery are outdated. We're facing out-of-memory issues while parsing our rank database to its own database. Use ddnet.org's profile function to see more up-to-date stats until I resolved the issues on the bot.

DDNet 18.2 is supposed to release in 12 days, assuming no bad bugs are found. Please test the Release Candidate to prevent problems being only discovered after release. Report bugs in the bugs channel or directly on Github: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/8233 Windows 32bit: https://ddnet.org/downloads/DDNet-18.2-rc1-win32.zip Windows 64bit: https://ddnet.org/downloads/DDNet-18.2-rc1-win64.zip Linux x86: https://ddnet.org/downloads/DDNet-18.2-rc1-linux_x86.tar.xz Linux x86-64: https://ddnet.org/downloads/DDNet-18.2-rc1-linux_x86_64.tar.xz macOS (arm64 & x86-64): https://ddnet.org/downloads/DDNet-18.2-rc1-macos.dmg You can also test the release candidate in Steam by clicking on Settings -> Properties -> Betas and opting into the Release Candidates. This will automatically update you to a new release candidate when it is available, and to the next release when no new candidate is available. So you can always leave this setting enabled to help us test new releases earlier. See https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/8233 for included changes, ideally test their behavior specifically. But just playing as you do normally also helps. The highlights are:
