A FEW THINGS THAT SHOULD BE IN 1.2 AND SVN

[Dan the Man]

1. Easter eggs (sv_alloweastereggs, sv_returningfire, etc...) that were found in 1.1
2. A /givemaster and/or /giveadmin command that gives master/admin privilege to a specified player, without having to give them admin password
I'll add to the list as I think of more...
I didn't really see much use to remove those easter eggs...

[Dan the Man]

I noticed that you removed a lot of easter eggs from 1.2... Can you put them back? Disabled by default, obviously, and maybe not in the main command&variables list... but just there as easter eggs instead of not there?
Also, as this game isn't very realistic, and the weapons are very futureistic and energy based, the exploding jammed weapon in 1.1 is a good idea, and it's toggleable.
You should put all the extra functions (that you removed from 1.2) in 1.1 into 1.2, just disabled by default (can be enabled) and you might not have to put it into the main command and variable list. And also, for jamming weapons, make the variable ranged, things like when weaponjamming = 0, no jam; 1, realistic jam; 2, explode jam. Then weapon modders like kr1egsgott have more options in 1.2

returningfire kept having too many regression issues as I changed other things, and seeing as it wasn't a serious part of the game (it was a random April Fools joke from 2 years ago that was accidentally left in a release), I made a decision not to maintain it any further. I won't be reintroducing it, there are better uses of my time.

weaponjamming is still a variable, and is simply disabled by default:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

GVAR(0, weaponjamming, 0, 0, 4); // 0 = off, 1 = drop the weapon, 2 = drop all weapons, 3/4 = 1/2 + explode

[Dan the Man]

Sounds nice, I just discovered that variable today
Without alloweastereggs, is rainbow colored projs still available? (col[1|2] = -3) Because those look really good.
Also, do you have something similar to /giveadmin or /givemaster? It's built in to AssaultCube servers.
keep up the awesomeness!

^ Yes they are. "givadmin" sounds kind of neat. It'd be like op'ing someone on IRC. Though really, if you trust someone enough to have admin privileges on your server, you should be able to trust them with a password.

My wish list:
Grpahics and gameplay;
+ Trembling camera: discussed here
+ Soft-focus with pointing the gun: like Modern warfare 3 (is just an example)
+ Permanent blood in the map. (i think that in the sauerbraten svn is availible)
+ Support for gamepads like Logitechs and Xbox360 controller (for windows and linux)
+ Radio online in-game
+ Online monsters.
+ More online and offline traps.
+ High-res weapons.

Editing:
+ A better particicles creator, like in Platinum Arts Sandbox (search in google)
+ The possibility to change the editing keys.
+ Procedural maps.
+ More options and simplicity in cube deformations
+ Support for vehicles
+ Real time player or model animation editing.

I think that this is a lot of work, but together we can get all the goals.

Ability to see one's legs when looking down.

That is all.

Wishlist:
- A playerbase understanding that you cannot make huge wishlists of features on the day before the release (or close to the release, at any rate) because it gives quin withdrawals and the release gets delayed again.

I want 1.2 tomorrow. Don't cause another delay...

[fawstoar]

Sorry. :/

I too want 1.2 as soon as possible.

I've really only been playing SVN and i suggest anyone who wants to prepare for 1.2, hop on that as well. Seeing as 1.2 is coming within the next couple of days, might as well fill up the SVN servers until then. And plus, everyone will be ready (or at least mostly) for 1.2. If you wanna catch me playing RE, you'll find me on SVN. just saying.

1.2 is on a feature freeze, it'll come out soon.

Wishlist: People who realized that SVN wasn't a hard concept and actually couldn't be easier, thus resulting in more people playing SVN

Snide remark aside, I have actually seen more people playing SVN, and that's pretty cool.

+ Permanent blood in the map. (i think that in the sauerbraten svn is availible)

With the amount of gibs that can be spewed with a good headshot or obliteration kill...that would cause horrible lag. There's a reason the blood and gibs disappear after a while, keeping them would cause them to pile up endlessly through the match, not only painting the map with decals, but causing horrendous lag.

I've actually been talking my friends into downloading Red Eclipse AND the SVN version, via the Unofficial RE SVN Bundle. Makes things a breeze and helps you feel like you're part of the development process for the game.

Was playing 1.2 earlier, and noticed a couple people talking about the flamer..again. What ever happened with the flamer in 1.2? Was it changed? or is it same as 1.1's flamer?

It was nerfed.

Me too, like Crysis and other fps games!

This. The difference is pretty noticable, but people still rage at me when I use it. Then again, that's half the fun.

With an optimizated procedural blood and permanent death bodies, i think that this cannot make lag. At the moment we have blood based in images. I think that Red Eclipse (and other cube based games and mods) are perfectly optimizated for online.
