But this feels like a troll.

If this was a joke, bravo. If not, you need to be banned from the forums.

I just finished my first game of B178 on ns_summit. After this i really need to say some words because of this:
<!--sizeo:7--><span style="font-size:36pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>AAAAAAAAAAAAA</b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec--><b>WESOME</b>!!!!!!!!!
This is the best built you did since a long time. Actually i cant remember every built. I need to tell that i really had liked NS2 already, but in this game i had this NS1-feeling for the first time, that made NS1 my favorite game for so many years.
Skulks are hitting and walking so much better, the new blink is unbelievable, and the new evolvemenu is really nice too! I dont have time to go for every thing which i recognized so i end the list here. (need some sleep now ;) )
Only the minimap was a bit broken(only some icons were the ones which they should), but the blips looked very good. ;)
Performance was also improved?! (game ran totally fine)

Really, really great work UWE!!!! Thanks for that!!!



Sry if i made some language mistakes. Its late here and my english is not the best. ;)

ZycaR

I have update today morning ... but for god sake WHY I need to spend whole day in work ? :(
I'll test it once I'm back at home .... rly rly rly want to try this build!

BTW: How is progress on Occlusion culling ?

peregrinus

What does this mean?

' Optimize relevancy determination on the server '

Typhon

Its the work the server does to determine which game entities (buildings, players, etc) each player should be informed about. If this query is highly inefficient, it could be the major issue holding back large games.

"Refactor SetTeamNumber() to be less ridiculous"

less ridiculous?

lol

Typhon

Yeah, ridiculousness is a conserved value, so in order to increase it elsewhere they have to decrease it in setteamnumber().

If you just look at the numbers, it's obvious it'll be OP even when all the features are implemented. The "fix" if you can even call it that, is utterly simple. Change one number in the code.

Quite simply, its a way to adjust animations within the game engine, I read somewhere that the animations werent blending (will-it-blend) just jumping from one animation to the next. It smoooths it, yer know..curves.

peregrinus

Thanks. I wonder will it make a very noticeable difference?

Hopefully fixes Whip jumpiness during growth. There are some animations that look odd in transition, such as Gorge and Fade taunts, maybe this will smooth them out.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Allow scan to make blinking Fades visible<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

So does this mean fades will be able to be damaged while blinking if scan is used? I hope so. That would be a great feature for a commander who pays attention.
