I think specs shouldn't be network clipped

19:45

This way you can record nice demos as spec

How do 0.7 teleports work? Are they on their own layer? Are they limited in number like 0.5 era ddrace teleporters? Single input, single output?

what mod are you talking about?

21:48

@redix

0.7 doesn't have teles out of the box

(yet)

uh oh

Oh did you never end up merging in race?

no AFAIK

21:49

race was deemed to be alive and well working on its own at the time

is there a candidate race mod?

candidate = candidate for inclusion in vanilla?

21:52

or = race mod for 0.7?

I meant it as the first one, but judging from your response, I'm guessing nothing is there yet, so the second one is also fine :D

I think this is @redix's race mode

21:55

@Dune is that correct?

yes

21:57

Learath2: the race mod that would make it in teeworlds would be lighter in features than what you'd usually make, and in 0.6 they decided that there is little point in making one because it couldn't compete with teerace anyway

21:57

However there are some efforts for client-side integration which @redix is leading

21:57

He's also open for suggestions for features that one would want in there, he wrote a message about that a while ago

21:58

Embedded image

Hmm, he doesn't seem to have an extra layer for teleporters, I wonder where he is storing the data for them

21:59

redix: here?

21:59

Oh, nvm he does have an extra layer

you could open a 0.7 race map to understand how it works

I'm doing a rewrite of ddnet for 0.7. Was just looking around to make sure I don't end up too far incompatible with a race mod if there is one that's prevalent

That's cool!

22:01

There is a map converter tool that does 0.6->0.7 for tilesets and teleport layers

22:01

it doesn't handle ddnet stuff but it might be a good starting point

22:02

https://github.com/axblk/teeworlds/issues/34 (redix wrote it)

There is already a direct port of ddnet that fokkonaut made and I think deen made a converter that sorta works for it. But I decided to go for a clean rewrite with the version bump. DDNet is quite a lot of spaghetti code anyway

that's cool, do hit up redix with ideas for client side integration if you have any, and chances are it could make it in the game before the end of the year

22:05

I'm not sure if the client-side integration will recognize teleports anyhow though

22:06

does the ddnet client do anything with the teleport info from the game layer?

it unfortunately can't because ddnet teleporters are random

22:06

if there's more than one OUT teleporter

(we never came up with a good way to predict that)

with proper integration, it should be predictable by the client, so maybe drop the randomness for race there

is that a feature or something you want to drop?

people would probably call it a feature in 0.6

I did come up with an idea though, maybe we can feed clients the possible out positions when they are close to a teleporter and use the teleporters number to predict where we are headed

people called a bug a feature, where the grenade would explode twice if it hit the wall the moment it timed out

@heinrich5991 is it actually random, I don't quite remember the semantics, It might have been actually checking around the out tile to see which one is emptier

I don't know Learath2's plans for ddnet 0.7

22:09

no, it's rand_int()%num_teles

22:09

that's spawning you're thinking about

Oh really?

22:09

Why don't we just seed it then?

yes, pretty sure

22:09

we can do that

why did we decide against that?

no implementation yet

22:10

need to find a way to satisfy players so that no ranks are invalidated

Okay, that's what I might go for then

nice

After I finish up teams though, turns out deep copying CGameWorlds, not that easy :P
