FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

The reason I haven't been adding any real new features recently is because I've been on holiday and I have exams in two weeks.

My issue tracker / todo list is here: https://github.com/rubenwardy/capturetheflag/issues
That specific request is here: https://github.com/rubenwardy/capturetheflag/issues/37

High priority are the things I'm going to do next: https://github.com/rubenwardy/captureth ... 20Priority

Ruben I am sick of players dating on the game.When the two are not in the same team they skip the match every time which annoyed me a lot. So I request you to make improvement in this a ban the players who constantly try to skip the match.

Thanks

Ruben, these guys are playing peaceful and not letting anyone win. Their names are

gogosing,ThePuppetSong,_imzecutest_

I hope you take some action against these people.As the match is not ending because of these guys.

Can you ban the player named "guillaume" from the server? He's always destroying his own team's base and stealing stuff. Also, sometimes he goes on a team, destroy their base, then disconnect and join the other team... So annoying. --'

Btw it would be useful to have a votekick function, but i already know there would be too much abuse (just look at the votemap problems to know that) ... --'

Yes,is true i build a sniper tower three times and guillaume destroy it.
And the game get a bug,yesterday and this day,i'll respawn out of the base and other players too

I think it's actually normal. It avoids spawnkilling. ;)

Why does the crossbow not work for me? Every time I fire it, the arrow lands at my feet instead of in the other player's body. Do I have to hold down a button or press shift?

bug?

See the shooter mod's topic, that's been reported

That's the new random spawn position feature.

Why have wooden doors been removed? It's a good way to monitor who comes into your base without having to break in the walls. :/

The shooter mod crossbow problem is fixed, so we need to update that mod on the server.
Also, it would be nice if stu's wieldview mod was installed so you know what kind of foe you're going up against in pvp.

With this you could trick your enemies making they think that you are wielding a wooden sword, but you have a high-tier one in other slot hehehe

Reverted the change that added lag.
wield3d has been installed.
Grenades are now in chests.
Added doors.

Ruben, can you remove night or at least make it a bit brighter? I have eye problems and I become completely useless at night.

Use torches?

EDIT: Read the wall of text only if Minetest really has moonlight. Either way, torches are not happening for CTF like games. NO.







Not practical. You should understand why. Who can fight in the dark of night, carrying a few torches, with a dangerous enemy who has the sense to get away from torches and that you will not know where is once he's gone, and covering large amounts of ground, going back to pick up them when you run out, AND have night blindness, and ever be good for anything? Hopeless beyond discussion unless you have something like infinite torches. And don't dare tell me to get more, because I can't; I'll probably be dead anyway or the match's gonna end. Others' eyes may adjust, but mine can't. Ask my doc. I was BORN with this.
And I can't, I won't, I shouldn't, and I have had enough of staying behind and fixing a base that I can't even see properly and is already well protected anyway. Not to say the fact that I can't tell most of the time even when someone has punched right through because most of the match is pitch dark and I don't know even when I'm being attacked.
And sorry for sounding harsh and retarded and self centered, but I love PvP and CTF a lot, and it's extremely frustrating when it is only optimized for perfect people.

It appears you have listened to my request. Thank you Ruben.

Ruben, two people were spamming and I spam-reported them. Sorry. I have been reported too now although I only wrote a few lines. Again sorry. Can you not ban anyone?

Ruben I dont know if this is a glitch but my points are not increasing my in game name is hey

EDIT: My points only increase if I capture the flag else if I don't the game only gives me 1 point

Please fix this

Again their is this glitch I recently earned 1772 points and on the leader board it only increased by 100 rather than it should have been increased by 1772. My points before the match were 5348 and it should have been increased by 1772 which is 7120 but on the leader board it was 5448.

This is making me lose a lot of points So please fix that
Here is a screenshot of it

Please give me my points.

That's not how the score board works, and that's not a glitch. You don't get given points, there are no points. Instead you get scored on your kd, captures and attempts.

those sort of cheats are trivial to detect, i suspected he cheats cause he kills ppl (ask player ULTIMATE and others) from far away but this is definite proof ( open image to zoom, player "Lentario"):

But can he not use guns?

Yes I know that dude from another server.
Saw he flying too. Banned.

Hmmmm.
Flying?
Although one thing that I don't like is how such people get mentioned everywhere in the most shameful ways in their absence. H4X3Rs are indeed annoying though

ABJ, please don't talk if you don't know, I have experience in Minetest, and in moderation and administration, in fact, this guy is harmless aside from the fact that he cheats in every way possible. As an "example", I know he from Amhi, where I was an admin until it closed, he is a nice guy, never harmed anybody. Even recognized me when he saw that I was playing, and acted friendly (even though I baned him from Amhi).

Cheating is bad, the person itself doesn't needs to be like that. But if you go against the rules, prepare for the consequences.

I noticed that "Spawnkill problem" we just couldn't survive, everybody else were idiots and didn't even help us out!!!!

Avoid insulting your teammates please, you are warned.
