Hey,

SLJ: No, the old maps will not work with the new game. I'm rewriting everything from scratch. I might not even call this RTR, so I should really open a new thread.
Simba: You'll be able to play in the browser as well as download a package for any operating system of your choice.

jolomifenemigho: The game sadly doesn't have a single player mode anymore. Someone posted a link to an older version that still had it.

Before I do that, have some more audio
Some menu noises, I spawn into a game, then someone else spawns and walks and jumps around a bit and shoots.

I submitted a bug to Chromium for some problems with the webaudio API implementation in Chrome, so hoping that gets resolved soon. I got a response really fast, so that's cool!

Wow. I'm exciting for all this. It's very interesting that it works in a webbrowser as well.

I would like to ask if my server also is stable? I have forgot to check up on this for a while, but will of course do so, if people are interested.

I sent a suggestion about a game mode and an entire system that is super popular in modern shooter games to the dragon's skype. I'll paste it here incase anyone is interested

I think  area capping is a very nnice mmode to make. a looot of new and  old video games have it. the battlefield series are  known  for this mode
basically there's an  area. if you and your teammate stand there,  you capture that area. to hold the capture progress the enemy team has to  find their way in and stand their ground
people rush into the cap areas and get gunned down by  defensive lines and such
Games like insergency have like 4-5 zones, calling by phonetic names. like alpha  bravo charley and such. players coordinate and  try to take over the entire zones
some other games like squad and battlefield one  have set  names. like "Albadri village" or "Factory"
For honor also has this system,  some people here have played it, im sure they've seen it
I also wanted to talk to you about making a point based system for the game.
basically each team has a set amount of  points, or called "tickets" by mainstream gamers. each time  a team mate dies, or an area gets captured, your team loses  tickets
whichever team's tickets gets down to 0, they lose
there are also some mechanics  to drain tickets. like losing a zone that's close to your base. as long as your enemy has that zone, you lose 2 tickets each 30 seconds

some more clarafication on the area capture system: Basically, when team alpha  has players inside the zone,  a progress begins. when it reaches up to 100%, the area will be captured and owned by team alpha.
at what evver point if team bravo has even one player inside the zone, the progress of capturing or simply capping for team alpha stops midway. if team alpha loses all players in the zone, team bravo begins reversing the progress, making the zone "Free" or "nutral" then, they start their own progress of capping

Here is a version of the game with offline capability, hosted on the Audiogames Archive. Be aware that multiplayer functions will be unavailable, and the game will check for, but will be unable to download, updates.

Hey,

you're talking about RTR, right?
The way I do speech in RTR is pretty weird, and the new game will handle this much more gracefully. The only way to add servers to RTR is to send me the details and I will add it to the server list. This will also change with the new game.
The new game will also have a much more stable server under linux, so that's good.

Also, might you be able to write a more comprehensive readme, and add a learn game sounds feature so people know what sounds mean?
Also, if we build maps, I think there should be a Readme for that, like in Scrolling Battles Your World and STW. Likewise, if players get stuck, you could use the Scon command to move them to a new location.
I'd be interested when you have the new update released. :-)

I'd need an authoritative DNS provider, because then if the IP address changes, it will update all resolving DNS caches within a short amount of time. I'll take a look, but what do you hope tal call your new game?
Also, what programming language is it being coded in? I noticed that all server.exe files are written in a terminal interface instead of a GUI. Why is this?

@SLJ, your server is fine and very stable.
@slender, thanks for posting the link for rtr single player mode, i really appreciate it.
@ghorthalon, you mind adding a sterrio sound test in the new game so players could know which is the left and right speakers?

@jolomifenemigho: Thanks for your comment. It's very nice to know that the server is stable.
@Ghorthalon: Thanks for all your replies. I have a few more questions about the current version of the game:
1. Previously, I had a big issue where players didn't got logged out of the server. So players who has left the server was still on the players list, and the server got filled up by 50 players or more because the list didn't got cleaned. But suddenly, this got fixed. Do you have any idea on why this was happening, and how to stop this from happening in the future?
2. I would also like to know what map send is on the server side. Does it mean I can create a map and the server will send the map to all the players who connect?
I'll keep my server running, but I think I'll focus on the new game instead of making a lot of things on the old game. I have the feeling that we might have the new game in a few months. Will the maps in the new game have full 3D so you also can go up and down? Properly fall down and loose some health if you don't watch out? That would be awesome...

Burak is right, it reads the values as milliseconds. It's all fine.
SLJ:L Yes, there will be height differences and losing health to fall damage. As to why this was happening, probably some network error. But the server is badly coded either way, so I'm not too surprised.

Map sending is broken, it won't work. Some missing entities probably happened because I updated the maps from dropbox and someone might have changed them.

The new game won't have all these issues.

And I don't think I need a speaker test. Control panel, sounds, select your sound card, applications key, test. Plays a downward tone in left speaker, upward tone in right speaker. Besides especially with HRTF it will be pretty obvious if they're the wrong way around.
