"this area is too crowded", even in empty spaces on photoshoot server

that means a large area (larger than default zoom) centered from your tee has more than 48 tees already. which is just to make sure we don't lose any tees in the final screenshot since we can only display 64 tees at a time.

03:16

is the map basically full now?

03:20

pause and look around, if there are clusters of tees in any direction of you that basically means a no-go. usually going up or down helps since that could avoid clusters either above or below you (edited)

there should be space, some space on the right side of the map, a lot in the clouds

03:39

if there is no space easily accessible at some point we can just give everyone infinite jumps so they can find a space in the sky, since most "good" spots are probably already taken

03:41

or reduce the area threshold by a tad

@louis Yeah, let's do that. For average players it will be hard to reach spots

for some reason my client don't get info about joining team, but in server i join it. because for my pov i am in team0, but i can only hook my dummy in my team. but even worse that when i try to use dummy hammer, dummy does not aim in my position. and in the end when i swap with dummy, my main got disconnect

@eidderFsT for some reason when i use zoom while in spec with no auto zoom (older client) it wont reset zoom to my default setting

13:05

bug

i don't understand

13:06

what older client, like 18.8?

yes

then how would i know

zoom command just wont work when spectating someone

oh you mean you are spectating 18.8

yeees

nightly or RC

nightly

ok

its just that zoom command is now binded to only enable auto feature

13:08

when spectating someone

ye it was fixed in a pr

13:10

haven't merged yet

ok ty

that one probably is gonna take sometime, i think we are removing spec cursor and auto spec cam from 18.9 and pushing it to 19

you can also try this artifact https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/9468 and give more feedback

2025-01-04 18:07:33 I chat/client: — Could not connect dummy: Too weak connection (not acked for 100 seconds) a typo?

where

15:09

acked?

yes

that stands for acknowledged

15:10

so not really

what

acknowledging a packet is usually just called an ack packet. that didn't arrives so the server have not acked (edited)

even discord doesn't like the word

ye that's just programmer jargon probably

well rn dont have anyone to test it

eidderFsT

ye that's just programmer jargon probably

guess it's fair

15:12

idk why player should know it tho

♂S1mple♂

idk why player should know it tho

true

15:12

first year i thought it was a typo as well

15:12

xD

probably doesn't really matter, if we say server has not responded for 100 seconds people will still post a screenshot asking what happened anyway (edited)

Maybe a more traditional "Connection timed out" would cause less confusion

16:38

Even if it sounds very TCP-ish

we already have a timeout message i think?

could the server show acceptable places using laser door for instance ?

maybe, the current way i does it, the server doesn't really know where is acceptbale until you press k

18:00

it check whether that exact spot is acceptable

18:01

honestly, if we got 128 players support sometime the area check could be a lot more manageable (edited)

idk if it has been reported already but

after clicking connect dummy, sometimes it disconnects u from server and reconnects u

20:58

(basically does the same as killing u)

Which server did this happen on?

21:11

sometimes it just wont connect

GER2 isn't the same hoster, so that's weird (edited)

Oh I saw it

21:16

Basically first time you connect a dummy it forces you to reconnect

1

yea

I think this is a bug with the REDIRECT function of the client (edited)

21:17

I'm checking it now to understand

If the dummy connection asks for a REDIRECT, even the normal/main connection will be redirected, not just the new dummy connection, no matter if the TOKEN key is different, both will be redirected(reconnected) (edited)
