What are the sort of things that the playerbase can expect from the next Sauerbraten update? Gamemodes, user interfaces, or graphical updates?

Easier way to defining the sunlight in the SVN by moving it around on the skybox.

Also, an editmode compass :P

#64: Weapons and enemies descriptions

What about adding to the interface a new menu with description of all weapons and enemies of the game? It could include weapon damage, speed, explosive or not, precision and enemy strength, weapon type.

kinda pointless. only a few handful still play SP these days. as for the weapons, they're not all that hard to learn. speed is irrelevant, which ones explode.. you know that. precision varies by the amount of spread applied on the minigun and shotgun for each shot. their damage is easy to learn, the rockets will do a maximum of 75 damage and the rockets can do over 100, both for a direct hit.

and of course, god forbid we check the docs (documentation), they struggled to make this for the sake of everyone. http://sauerbraten.org/docs/game.html#items_and_gameplay

and yes, i know, a bit hard raz, however you and i both know, "read the docs" has been posted the 9515th time, so i am just being fair here. :P

The fact that it's available on a web page doesn't forbid to add a pretty GUI with some nice images :)

(If you think so you could also remove the options menu then, since you can still edit the conf files reading the docs...)

I was thinking of doing so, the options menu is a fucking mess. I had started remaking them all in a more fashioned manner where everything was categorized, but i eventually dropped the idea since i had made some new stuff and i just had to try it all out. Supposing i recover my files sometime, i can start working on it, and who knows, i might finish a stable version by the next sauer release. :P

#69: Gamemodes

by Lonewolf199 on 06/17/2011 21:28

I think we should leave all gamemodes as they are. I wonder why instagib is so popular. I like capture or ffa a lot too.

its not just on the web, its also in the main sauer folder, under the file-folder "docs" besides, unless you want to spend a long time writing useless crap that has already been written, than why post it? no one else is going to make it for you...

accidental double post, too fast, my bad... i agree that the default game modes we have now shouldn't be changed, however, adding new game modes might be in order, afterall, a new game mode might bring in new people, and it would make more fun... i still like the assassin mode we used to have. XD

A bigger clock, in the HUD, like QL one, showing game time. Options to configure it as countdown or countup and size.

So, maybe, FFA (and CTF), will became playeble for people who don't use c++ timer.

Am i hearing you right? "Their damage is easy to learn, the rockets will do a maximum of 75 damage and the rockets can do over 100, both for a direct hit." I do not understand?

Untrue,

Grenades to 71 damage at max (this is pretty rare, because to normally do 67 damage).
Rockets did 120 damage, but should do like 105 damage now (I'm not sure of that anymore), because of a patch so rockets wouldn't overrule the hole gameplay.

What are you playing? sauer-mod #895? Those values are still correct in justice.
