#12486: balance

by rsw on 08/21/2009 02:18

Sometimes I am like a god with the shotgun. Are the weapons pretty well balanced and I am just that surgical with the boomstick, or is that icky feeling I'm getting due to me actually being a cheap whore?

The guns are deliberately unbalanced. While there are situations for each weapons, the shotgun is generally considered the best weapon overall.

That said, playing mostly with the shotgun isn't cheap: it's playing smart. Use what the mapper provides to your advantage.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but:

When I upgrade, will Sauerbraten still be compatible with Mac OS X Snow Leopard?

#12493: Save & load functions!

by DHK on 08/24/2009 02:40

Ya, a really cool game if there were \"save\" and \"load\" functions. You don\'t see too many GOOD games without them. DHK

I must say I don't agree with you K1P57A. The great thing about Sauer is that it does not follow any single design theme. I believe that the lack of urban maps is mainly because of lack of urban textures. The texture sets available are mainly egyptian and middle-age, hence the amount of maps in those styles.

If a solid, complete urban texture set was available, then I would bet that there would be a lot more urban maps :D

#12497: Master, Admin

by serthigh on 08/24/2009 22:40

Does anyone know how to become a master or an admin in a server? When I try to claim master in a server, it says I have to use the "/auth" command to gain master. Anyone know how can I access this?

#12502: Setting up shortcut on desktop

by ubuntupreferred on 08/25/2009 22:36

#!/bin/sh
# SAUER_DATA should refer to the directory in which Sauerbraten data files are placed.
#SAUER_DATA=~/sauerbraten
#SAUER_DATA=/usr/local/sauerbraten
SAUER_DATA=/home/jim/Desktop/Downloaded Games/sauerbraten is the way I have my start up script set up. This is where the files are located. When I double click the shortcut nothing happens. I have gobby installed. Can someone please help me figure this out? It\'s been awhile since I used a computer. I have gobby installed if that would help...

It's the space in "Downloaded Games". Unix doesn't like spaces.

by Hirato Kirata on 08/26/2009 01:42, refers to #12502

In case Stealth is right, do try doing either of the below
1) place a \ before the ' ';
2) surround the path in double quotes; ie SAUER_DATA="/home/anonymous/My Games/sauerbraten"

#12505: Re: Setting up shortcut on desktop

by SheeEttin on 08/26/2009 04:10, refers to #12504

Doubtful. I bet the problem is "double click[ing] the shortcut".
Because first, Linux doesn't HAVE shortcuts. (The closest thing is a symbolic link.) Second, whatever he's double-clicking on, it's probably not going to do anything.

So. Assuming your entire Cube 2 directory is at the location you mentioned, the most likely method of success would be to run "/home/jim/Desktop/Downloaded\ Games/sauerbraten/sauerbraten_unix" in a terminal (or just "./sauerbraten_unix" in a terminal in your Cube 2 directory).

I don't know about Gnome, but in KDE, double-clicking a shell script will usually run it, so you might just try double-clicking on sauerbraten_unix.
