Community made patches and improvements

[[-z-]]

Someone would have to give t he okay but I don't believe anyone would be upset about adding Racetrack and ONS reborn respectively. However, for an ONS map, I'd still like to see improvements as detailed above.

hey MirceaKitsune, you might want to follow this thread http://www.forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?t=3760

I'm sure if my first patch goes in you will be tempted to use these features, specially for last campaign levels.

Cheers

The problem is that well, over my plans for this campaign list each gametype category needs to have at least 4 rounds. And since for ONS there's only 1 map I would need to play the same map 4 times which would be really annoying for the player. Also for Race there is no map in the official version yet, so I wouldn't have what to add at all.

Either way it's late now and I have to go to bed. Tomorrow however I plan to take a look at putting some Keyhunt in too The only thing I strongly want to keep is the arrangement of the gametypes, as I really believe it's much nicer to have gametypes come in categories one after another rather then have one of that and one of that all mixed up. Anyway yeah, will look more tomorrow. Also feel free to add what I made so far to the SVN if you want, I can always make more updates and post them here. Have fun with the current code so far.

Well I meant doing them as bonus rounds in between the matches you planned out:

5 DM, 1 Race, 5 DM, 1 Key Hunt, 4 TDM, 1 Race, 4 TDM, 1 Key Hunt, 6 DOM, 1 Race, 4 CTF, 1 ONS and 3 championship levels (LMS, Arena, 1on1 DM).

The two maps I suggested are created by Morphed, a member of the team, Racetrack and ONS Reborn (Which I thought was in SVN). I think there is a good chance these could make it into the game.

They aren't looking incorrect to me.

Really? They look like this to me. (with darkplaced rev 8858 and nexuiz rev 5097)

The thing is, this is how they are intended to look. The arrow is the direction of the axis where the WP is. If the waypoint is behind you, that direction is inverted. Can't help that, it's how it is designed.

I agree that this is not optimal, although mathematically correct. I just could not come up with a better formula for doing this. However, cs_project is certainly working correctly - the thing is, it cannot be used for this in the "exception cases", when the waypoint is outside the screen. A better approach would be pushing the waypoint forward without changing its xy position until it is fully in view, instead of taking the origin-waypoint axis.

There is now code in svn that does this "forward-pushing". Try it.

Said and done. Regarding the new campaign list, I squeezed in four Keyhunt challenges after the CTF series. There are now 35 matches in total and things should be even more fun now. This is the best I can do regarding gametypes however, the campaign is already long enough as it is now and there's no more room to add more gametypes not even as bonus levels between the matches... doing so would brake the balance of the list which I tried hard to keep as smooth as I could (however if a gametype will be proven more interesting then another in the future I will certainly replace, but 5 gametypes for the campaign should be enough). So if Div thinks this is ready for the SVN I hope it can be added in

Updated code below.

As for race maps, I'd suggest that darkzonerace, hookrace and racetrack could be added to the official release.

About warfarerace I am not convinced, it has bad flow for me.
