hmm The vote thign looks a bit complicated, perhaps a button with a window doing it, or maybe setting it in options as a macro then typing "!startvote macro"

The bot doesn't seem to end the rtsspring.exe automaticly. I'll check that today.
Edit:
Ok the bot is still working...
I just made a stupid mistake with hitting the "Relais chat" box instead on autoclose.

Anyway everything seems to be working fine so far.

Now I found another "old" bug.
the administration problem is back.
If someone comes with a "ee" Nickname he/she also gets the rights that the player "Squeegeez" has.
Another example would be "connor" and "nn", or if I come with "fern", instead of Dr.InfernO.
I hope you can fix it fast.

v1.3981

added a window to cast votes
restored stats tab in help form
decreased waiting time when opening the zoomed minimap
rejoin : don't have map when they start ? hit rejoin and pop you're in !
works only when server is accepting new connection (when you choose start position)

Maybe fi the new Version thign gave a changelog and a direct link to the download rather than this thread or a bounce page... Also could you make the bounce page oepn in the same window or a enw tab rather than in a new window, it's annoying having to look through my cluttered taskbar for windows

can u play with people using the TA spring lobby client or only people with this lobby?

AF · Post by AF » 05 May 2006, 21:22

you cna play with anyone on the same server, regardless of client

okay, several times I've been experiencing severe lag (memory hogging, CPU spikes, not network) that has been making AltaMod lock up on me for up to ten seconds at a time, and in today's instance, booting me off the server regularly. I don't know what's causing it, but after I disable my ban and foe lists (which are empty at the moment) and all the sounds.... it seems to be going okay for the time being.

the sorting seems to be quite consuming
i have a spike when i use /befriend as it resorts the whole list ; same when you launche the client
but in normal times, when new ppl come it doesn't resort the entire list

To rencourage development. I've made an Alternate splash screen ^.^

It's based on Betalord's splash, I hope you like it.
Any crits and suggestions are welcome

altaric · Post by **altaric** » 10 May 2006, 22:29

i can't realy crit it .. i suck at shiny things as you can see :) i added it in ....

V1.399
new splash (thanks Zenka)
post game start options
shortened launch time
fixed %r (welcome message)
version message now goes to #main => can't say you missed it !
removed mod finding system .. nobody used it anyway

explanation of the post game start options :
delivered with a default template (you gotta activate it tho ; prefs > general)
for now, it understands :
reposition : repositions the window for windowed players
share : sets share dots (metal & E) as you tell it to
wait ms : to add a delay to your stuff (in milisec)

I always get sync errors when I use this, any idea why?

Sync errors in game?
Kinda odd, the lobby isn't of much influence.
(well the lobby could send the wrong mod/map info to Spring. But I kinda doubt that is happening)

And yey! my spash screen! ^.^

altaric · Post by **altaric** » 11 May 2006, 18:43

you got syncs even with regular client ?
-> redownload the mod
sync is a hash made on mod info and some other stuff

i just checked, i don't have red sync on XTA6.0 (first game that poped below my mouse :)

Hello all

This is my first post !!

Okay, i use the cool Lobby Altaric's Mod and i would suggest somethings :

1/ i wasnt at house but i decided to let the server online, my friend has done some battles on it and before to launch a new game he was disconnected due to his ISP and the badthing was he locked the battle (!lockbattle) before ! so my server was online 4 hours for nothing, it would be cool to add a check when the server is empty (just me in spectator) and is locked to unlock the server to prevent this type of problems.

2/ two boring things :
1 - the autoclose rts option is never saved
2 - the numbers of players of the battle (when you create one battleroom) is never saved (always is scaled on 4)

Thanks for readed me.

Regards, Vincent.

> This is my first post !!
welcome aboard :)

> !lockbattle
you can use PMs to unlock the battle
!lock battle was made to be used when a problem occurs and need an admin to fix

> the autoclose rts option is never saved and players
i'll fix that

VinZ · Post by **VinZ** » 12 May 2006, 19:22

i get the exact same issue. i tried hosting a game with a friend to quickly try it out and he couldn't do anything. normal client works fine though.

it seems your lobby doesnt work anymore, since the last update to 1.399 your lobby is invisible,
