Great work! This is amazing!
I had one problem about the server: there are no coloured name tags but on the screenshot shown there are. This makes it confusing because I've been killed by my own team mates even when I had the opposite flag...
But other than that this is great. I like the idea for the different classes. It would add more to the game. I'll be looking forward to it!!

[rubenwardy]

What version of Minetest do you use?

I can't remember when colored tags were added.

[horse_lover]

0.4.12
But I played this on android, maybe that's the issue? I'm currently traveling so I cannot try it on my PC...
BTW I'm talking about the server, not my own singleplayer game.

[rubenwardy]

Colored name tags must have been added in 0.4.12-dev. I'll look into changing the player skins.

Added colored player skins.

I think there should be a setting in a conf file for pregenerated bases.
One of the issues i have on your server is that when both sides have a good fortress it is fun, but when someone wins and game restarts it is too easy to get enemy flag as one could just run in and grab it without dying and the matches become annoyingly short and not as fun as i feel they should be.

[rubenwardy]

I'm working on that. There's going to be a new map which makes it harder to just go from one base to another, with lots of cover.

[lightonflux]

Played on your server rubewardy and the thing i missed is colour coded chats. Every player was prefixed with the team name / colour, but a colour coded chat would be easier to read.

And team channels would be a nice addition to the game (or modpack?).

Not possible with Minetest currently, without being hacky. The code has been made, but not merged.

Use /t your message to send.

I have a problem when the game ends the server goes down in "Resetting the map, This May take a few moments ...". I could find that

Code: Select all

minetest.delete_area (vector.new (r, r, r), vector.new (r, r, r))

It causes the error, how I can fix it?. thanks.

Tengo un problema, cuando termina la partida se cae el servidor en "Resetting the map, this may take a few moments..." . pude encontrar que

Code: Select all

minetest.delete_area(vector.new(-r, -r, -r), vector.new(r, r, r))

provoca el error, ¿Como puedo solucionarlo?. Gracias.

[rubenwardy]

You need to actually give me an error message for me to do anything about it.

I have no problems with my server, the only crashes I get are engine bugs, which happens roughly every 6 days. Segfaults.

[Carlos]

leaves no error message, or debug.txt,
When you remove the line minetest.delete_area (vector.new (r, r, r), vector.new (r, r, r)) the server is not shut up

I Minetest 0.4.13

Crashes without errors posted to debug.txt are usually segfaults.

What minetest version do you use?

To find out more we'll need to make a debug build. What operating system are you running on? If you're running on Linux, you need to install gdb. You then need to compile minetest using cmake. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug
And then run minetest by doing

gdb bin/minetest

Then in the console that appears type:

run

When it crashes, then type

bt full

Keep pressing space to see all the output, then copy and paste that here. It's possible that it may expose passwords depending on where it crashed, so look for "password" or "pass" in the output and censor it before pasting.

Thanks.

[OrangeSoda]

tbh it gets a bit boring when you play on the same seed over and over again, maybe the seed should change once a month, I'd love it if there was a huge lake between the blue and red team's bases and you'd have to use a boat to get from one to the other.

[Carlos]

OS: linux kubuntu 15.04 64 bits
Minetest 0.4.13

The program does not stop himself, he stops working

this is all that appears:

Can I be a IRC ?

[snowflake]

I think the games needs more than 20 players because everyone wants to play

[prof-turbo]

You're may be talking about the server, not the game in itself.

The fact is having a powerful computer running all the time is not possible for everyone, and Minetest uses a lot of power from the computer. If it could be better, it would, but actually, I think rubenwardy can't do that :).

Also if you want to talk about the servr from now, please refer to this topic : viewtopic.php?f=10&t=13157&start=175

[rubenwardy]

Updates:

• Kill history
• Fix grenades and make them less rare
• Fix chatplus bug
• Fix kills being counted twice
• Change nametag color on flag pick up
• Remove rules mod
• Add irc support to ctf_match
• Better team creation code

[stu]

Very nice, this game just keeps getting better. Can I ask you why you changed the grenade's time_from_last_punch from 1 to 2? I never did fully understand how that is supposed to work.

[rubenwardy]

I was debugging, trying to work out how to make grenades damage players. Turns out that it was a bug in ctf_pvp_engine/ctf/team.lua:register_on_punch_player, not shooter. So, it was testing that I forgot to undo.

[snowflake]

This Game was Amazing when i frist joined....
i started to choose this as my fav server and played on it like many times..

BUT now
the server is so laggy, its called lag spikes. Calinou posted github page about this
when someone walks it will take like 10 seconds and they move.
This Prevent killing and gameplay

[snowflake]

another thing is - what happen to IRC>.

i tried using kiwi and freenode . it didn't work

[rubenwardy]

I disabled the mod that I think is to blame, but I will be trying to fix that mod.
Due to some users abusing the IRC channel by fighting through it, I limited it to only authorised users. That's no longer the case though.
