I think it'll change the range to be 0 to 11 roughly. the cubes will be so small, you can pretty much lag yourself to death on a size 10 map :).

Also all the maps will look like shite, least till you type /remip, then the lighting will be, so you have to /calclight 3 too, then the PVS data will be messed up too, so maybe a /genpvs as well.

it's up yo you if it's worth the effort :P

/bind END [remip; calclight -1; genpvs]
;)

Oh, and I must find the time to play around with miniature gridsizes. Should be very interesting.

Wrong place, mostly. I didn't make the censor, but it seems to me that if you want to talk about that you should make a separate thread (and not accuse a prominent contributor of wrongdoing in the process). Start a thread about the issue if you think it's important enough that it needs one.

Define your question better instead of repeating it; we all heard you the first time.

#10338: Re: Question

by Titanic12ship on 04/03/2008 14:27, refers to #10337

Ok. I wanted to know how to make an alias for the speed of an elevator in a config, so that if you push a button on the menu, it sets a value, then when you push another button it makes an elevator based on the values you chose. I already have a lot of it done, but I can't figure out how to make an alias that controls the speed of the elevator.

#10339: creating maps and server games

by arenacreator on 04/03/2008 18:04

right so I downloaded Sauerbraten or Cube 2 yesterday and all I can say is absolutely amazing. The possibilities just screamed at me. I spent a good hour messing about with the map editor and creating maps or as I like to call them, arenas is defintely something that I would be interested in. I'm completely new to the engine and I know that I've only tapped the surface of the possibilities with this game engine. Now I'm someone who hasn't achieved much in life so what I would love to achieve is to create a server with multiple arena designs where people can come from all over the world to fight. I know quite a lot about computers and Windows XP Home Edition which I believe helps. I have a few problems though. Firstly, creating textures and modifying the terrain is pretty straight forward but I cannot seem to work out how to add entities such as monsters, weapons ammo, so help would be very much appreciated. Maybe i'm getting too ahead of myself, but once I've got some worthy maps up and running I definietely want to look into server gameplay. This engine rules! See ya!

Mmmh. You've been around a bit now Titanic12Ship ... and I seriously doubt if your question really adresses the issue ... I'm actually a bit curious about what you mean with "I've got a lot of it done" ... because - the answer to the alias question is ...

my_elevator_speed = 42

there - an alias ... does that help you?
I bet not.

Maybe - if you really want some help on this - you should post a "work-in-progress"-CubeScript-node on quadropolis showing us what you've got so far and asking for help ...
... if we see the CubeScript we'd be sure to be able to give better help/feedback.

It'd probably also help to post in the mapping thread. ;)

by tentus_ on 04/03/2008 23:10, refers to #10339

Hit the tilde key while in editmode (the ~ under ESC) and type
newent entity X Y Z
with "entity" depending on what you want (monster, trigger, bullets, etc) and XYZ being any numberical values attached to that entity. The best reference for stuff like this is http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editref.html

To see your monsters and stuff, save your map and then reload it in SP mode.

#10343: set up private

by olddaddy on 04/05/2008 01:02

Hi all, I am your worst nightmare, a newb but an older newb with a question. So yes, I appreciate your patience.

I am trying to setup up AC as a private server, basically, my son wants me to game against him, ok, fine, however, I want to set up my computer as main, and he can then join me. I have a 4 port router and Comodo firewall, not too concerned about allowing requests, that much I can handle. I am not sure what settings specifically I use to set it up as private. Last time I used private, I had a slew of people on there. lol. So I have been reading but still a bit confused.

Thank you

-mlocalhost

pass that to your server binary, then it will not register on the masterserver, thus nobody will know about it and then they can't connect ;-)

HTH ... and have fun fragging your son :)

by MeatROme on 04/05/2008 01:39, refers to #10344

Well, newer protocoll suggests you're not using the latest release ... I'll just hazard a guess here and assume you're running on a linux and installed the game (which (incidentally)) via the distros package manager ...

Well : Don't!

The people that "took charge" of these packages don't really seem to be very active - the packages are chronically out-of-date.

Go to the sourceforge repository and download the current release!
I'd give you a link, but I dunno if you want Sauerbraten, AssaultCube ... or whatever ... the links to sourceforge are available (or at least obviously reachable) from the main page of each of those games!

HTH

#10347: Map saving problems!!!

by theparticle010 on 04/05/2008 03:10

I've been having some problems with saving maps, I can save and load them fine when I am in cube 2 but when I search for them in packages/base directory I can't find them, and a couple days later I find 2 of the 6 maps in my home directory, and the others I can load and edit in the game, but I can't find them anywhere on the whole computer!!!

I am using Linux.
