Some question

[Mag1cWalker]

Hi i have some quick question


1. How to setup boxes?

2. Is there any way to change GUI?

3. How to turn on that list of players with pings and CPU usage in right down corner of game screen?

1. How to setup boxes?

If you're talking about deployment boxes prior to game launch, that's shift-click-drag.

2. Is there any way to change GUI?

In-game, only the minimap can be changed. However, you can go and dabble in LuaGUI for a bit, but I don't know how that works.

3. How to turn on that list of players with pings and CPU usage in right down corner of game screen?

I don't know, I'm missing it myself in the latest release.....

1) Drag a square in the minimap while keeping shift pressed. You can find other useful tips by pressing the "Help" button in the lobby.

2) Yes, but you'd better wait for the next version before tweaking it, the GUI will be improved a lot.

3) Type ".info".

edit: Heh, no reply for more than half an hour then three people answer at the same time.

1) In the lobby, Start position -> Choose in game. Then shift+drag on the minimap to make boxes. Point at a box and press delete to erase a box.

3) Type /info on the in game chat (optionally followed with a number to determine sorting order).

EDIT Bah I'm slow

Ever since the new spring, i have to type .info each time a play a game. Is there any way to make it enabled all the time?

ShowPlayerInfo=[int] in your settings file.


Disabled= 0,
Allies = 1,
TeamID = 2,
PlayerName= 3,
PlayerCPU= 4,
PlayerPing= 5

.74b3 has some whacky ingame editable lua gui stuff.

I know - I just said I don't know how to do it myself.

Just wait till you see it...

Just played a couple singleplayer games with a config from the "ctrpanels" thread. I love it.

Where abouts is my settings file located? (windows)

[Mag1cWalker]

Where is that damn setting file? :)

[Ling_Lover]

in windows its in the registry...

in SY -> Spring or something... too lazy to check it now... someone will come and tell you the real location

It's under

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SJ\Spring\]

I found it by opening AF's nanospray file

This is weird, mine is set to 1 already (stored as hex). Yet each time i play a game, i need to type .info

REED MY THREAD.

[YHCIR]

Here is the thread that explains it all.
the .info player status registry bug, and where your spring config/settings are stored.
http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewt ... light=info

I never found that thread because i was just looking for where the windows settings were stored, i was not looking for a bug.
