It just jumps a little bit. Small thing but still.

in the AoS classic and OpenSpades clients, grenade velocity is player orientation + player velocity.

for instance, this line (i think?)

I am trying to build the newest version (0.1.3) and it gives me tons of errors regarding "glx.h".
I can't find anything related to this error online, and I was hoping for some help.

You can see the errors below:

e.g: aos://127.0.0.1:32887:0.75

(This is supported by all other clients)

According to the map a player captures a tent on location A3, but a chat message says it's A2.

If you e.g. destroy some trees, then do a /rollback, the client will behave weirdly, making the placed blocks fall even though they are attached to other blocks. This works fine in other clients. Reconnecting will fix the weird behaviour.

I guess instead of the players weapon, you are accidentally hiding all weapons

I got an error when compiling. ( http://pastebin.com/PAc5NFbZ )
Here is what I put on each directory - ( http://pastebin.com/jd6uxpC6 )
I'm quite noob on building stuff, so it might be very stupid mistake..

Anyway, thanks for this brilliant new client :)

Steps to reproduce:

• turn on /fly on server
• Press ctrl in the air
• Fly to orbit with no way of stopping yourself

You know the one with glx_major_version, where the workaround is return 1

Uhm, I have a question. It's simple, how do I play it after compiled?
I press F2 and the game shows like a normal aos, without any block and with an aqua background color, and a super-bugged SMG xD.

Hello, it's a technical question. With this, i want to know how the vxl engine that uses betterspades to load and save maps work... because i want to load ".vxl" maps in my project called Battlexel (https://github.com/Edgamer63/Battlexel), to load ".vxl" maps into map editor (my project)... I think i know that AoS (Original) & BetterSpades uses maps dimensions of [x,y,z]: 512,512,64...

What i want to know from a simple map (vxl), is the count of total blocks in map, the position of all ones [x,y,z], and the color (24 bit (RGB)).

And how to save to vxl map.

I have an example of how my map engine save maps more easily to understand and with a very smaller size.

for example, the block id here is 70:

The high, in this case, is the "Z" position.

color_x and color_y are based on colors of block palette (i will implement RGB colors Support anyways xD):

X
Y

vxl_70_high="0"
vxl_70_color_y="2"
vxl_70_color_x="4"
vxl_70_y="6"
vxl_70_x="12"

in this case the block have a high of 0 (floor), position x,y : (12,6) and color red .

Well, this applies to all items in a map... because it can be used for intels locations, base locations, even choppers, tanks and mg xD.

For example:

Base_1_x = "50"
Base_1_y = "50"
Base_1_high = "3"
Base_1_team = "2"

Base pos is [x,y] = 50,50, with high of 3 blocks and team is "2" (Green).

Thats it, could you help me? :3 , i still being newbie in programming hahah ... but all i want to do, is to expand the game more... because i think my project would support very big huge maps created by community.

Previously, it was possible to do ./client -<address> to connect to private servers (unlisted, localhost, LAN party, etc), but now this is no longer possible.

I suggest re-adding both the old method and a new user input textbox in the server browser.

To reproduce this bug simply start reloading a gun and switch, for example to grenades or any other tool.

After the reload time elapsed and you switched back to the gun, it's already reloaded, but it shouldn't be because the reload process should have been canceled when you choose another tool during the reload process.

I'm playing normally more every time I'm going to type something in the chat the first letter does not appear but only appears from the 2nd onwards only this happened weird

I should really contribute a CI config so the builds stop breaking :)

So, uh finally reporting a non-nitpicky issue. When typing in team chat, the message gets sent with a type of 0 aka CHAT_ALL not CHAT_TEAM.

Looking at a member of the blue team would fill my screen with the colour of the team, this blocks the view of my enemies

I select shotgun (3) and it sets me as rifle (1)

At the end of a match the client crashed.

Instead, it glitches around happily

Those are extensions to the 0.75 protocol supported by PySnip and piqueserver (perhaps even pyspades) that allow the server to query the client name and version and a few other things, as specified here.

While not very useful right now, except for statistical purposes, it can be used in the future to improve UX and for new features via feature flags while optionally remaining backwards compatible (e.g. an "all vs boss" server checking if a given client supports Entity packets as you proposed and otherwise kicking the player)

Well i see a really important Bug in the Last Release, that is a Weapon-Packet Error, or imprecisions.

https://youtu.be/Av72lmX5xBc

well, this happens after I tried to change my weapon, so it does, but... this is the bug that happens, and i'm not really sure why, but i notice it because it will improve a bit more the game performance.

It's really strange, it suddenly change from SMG, to the last weapon , that in this case is RIFLE.

Well, Keep Going on with this amazing work :D , i will support you as i can.

Hello my friend! :D ...

• I suggest to write the "reload" text, more upper, because the weapon aim, like "smg.png" are drawn on the text, and normal player will not be allowed to see the text of "Reload". In this example, you could see only "Eloa", and not the whole word "Reload".

• And, I don't know where the keyboard checking is, but... I recommend to delete the first char in a lapse after the key checking of the chat message, because if you press the "T"(Global Message by default), shows the message line, but with an unwanted letter "t" on first character. Also on the Team message it is the same case, but with letter "y". That's why I recommend to delete the first character.

I expected this to exist, but it seems it does not

Ideally, both coarse (A5) and in precise coordinates

The intel looks a lot larger than in vanilla

I installed all the libraries, manually moved, renamed, and uncommented all the things you needed me to, and it still does not compile.

Here's the console output I get when I try to run make:

Everything it needs is installed or in the src folder outside of build/. There's no reason on my end for it to fail, at least not one that I can see. What am I doing wrong?

OpenSpades accepts removal of blocks directly above sea level by the server, but BetterSpades rejects them.

Right-clicking while holding the block will allow me to place them as fast as I can, whereas left-click has a small cooldown inbetween clicks.

Well, this is an idea to make BetterSpades more beautiful... to add an option to load non super shading kv6 models to next release in the year or when you want. xD

Pls reply... I really want to help with ideas :) Keep up your work friend! :D

PS: I thought of this idea, just because I made Deuce graphics like this and more, but not using Ken Silverman's engine. In my own Project that I dev for years, (and I keep doing) called : "Battlexel" ™ (AoS related but in 2D!)

I would like to create some wiki pages regarding controls and compilation/installation on linux. Please invite me as a member of the repository or make the wiki public.

In classic and openspades, the shotgun is able to be fired after 1 shell is loaded, if it was empty upon beginning of the reload. It should also be able to be fired at any time during a non-fully-empty reload, and betterspades does not do this.

UPDATE: i added -ldeflate to link.txt in build/CMakeFiles/client.dir/link.txt and now deflate issues is gone but it still fails at drwav:

CMakeFiles/client.dir/src/sound.c.o: In function sound_load': sound.c:(.text+0x908): undefined reference to drwav_open_and_read_file_s16'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

line 9 in dr_wav.h is not the #define statement and the file also has deprecation warning in it
(drwav_open_and_read_s16() should be drwav_open_and_read_pcm_frames_s16() according to it)

title explains it all, pretty much. You just get stuck at (0, 0, 0).

Having to check out everything manually and copy everything manually makes this a bit of a pain. I'm doing it right now but if you'd like I could help clean that up so nobody else has to put up with the somewhat fragile approach that has to be done at the moment.

The project already uses features defined in the C99 standard such as single line comments (// comment). Some required 3rd party libraries already use C99 data types. Thus using them in BetterSpades itself would make sense.

stdbool.h defines the boolean type and macros for true and false
stdint.h defines fixed width integer types

For example the code uses the unsigned char type on multiple occasions to indicate a single byte number between 0-255. The corresponding standard type would be uint8_t which would document the contents of the variable since it is not a character as a char would imply.

Even with default resolution, the larger Fixedsys font does not seem to be rendering at correct scale.

When the window is set to fullscreen, the same scaling problem occurs for the small chat font as well.
