the messages seem to be working again, did anybody do anything?

hmmm..do I need to update spads due to the latest server changes? there's these warnings on the logs: 20190224182525 - NOTICE - [SPADS] Initializing SPADS 0.12.4 20190224182525 - WARNING - [SPADS] Skipping auto-update at start, another updater instance is already running 20190224182525 - NOTICE - [S...

The messages from my spads hosts, when players join/leave (#mf) and !promote (#mf, #main, and a bunch of others) aren't showing up on the chat.

Is this a known issue?

Note, i've made a pull request with various changes to the SL battle list:

I've posted about my game in particular, sometimes about new releases, sometimes refer the other spring games, the spring "ecossystem", but 99.9% people don't seem to give a shit, often I get no feedback at all. Other times spring related stuff seems to grab some attention and get some positive feed...

nebula2 is the autohost account. Should I be using a single account for all replay uploads?

My hosts haven't been able to upload replays after each game ends. The "Failed to upload demo file!" is shown on the h This only happened since the last few days, and there haven't been any changes on the hosts game or engine version. one of the users in question is "nebula2". running the replay_upl...

True, he did say so.

I'm not sure this is a good idea. 103.0 may have an engine exploit, but what % of games are actually affected by it? For example, a new player has been trying to play the games and crashing while starting, and it seems it's caused by GL compatibilty requirement of 3.0 for engine 104.0: [GR::CreateSD...

this seems exploitable:
- false negative : a cheater with a nearby laptop can move both mouses simultaneously every minute or so to fool the algorithm
- false positive : spectator was afk or just paying attention to another window and didn't move the mouse

This is interesting. It seems to be trying to sell itself as scalable to huge numbers of units and possibly players in each battle with people joining mid-game (not sure if any of it is actually true). It seems like it's using a modified version of techA units. Despite its flaws in movement animatio...

buuump

So the interior of each building is visible and the actual buildings are the walls? i've thought about a garrisonable building mechanic for spring games with humans walking around where each building would consist of: - raised terraform for the roof, so units can walk on the roof and have turrets an...

I didn't argue that they should be allowed, I argued that the penalty should be relatively low, depending on intensity, recurrence, etc. Besides this thread, was there any other action taken? If someone that usually plays and is sometimes rude suddenly "disappears", is there a way for others who use...

I agree such offensive words shouldn't be used, but this case seems to be a kind of joke message sent by pm to trigger Forb (it worked).

It should get warnings and a perhaps a short duration temp ban, not public shaming.

It's not like we're swimming in players..
