Spring RTS Engine

Is there an active teamspeak server that peeps regularly hop on?

Of course there is. We're all on it. But we're on strict orders to never give Dragon the connection details.

I think TS would be really cool for team games, but how to prevent your enemy from listening in?

This would be the killer application of a new lobby

Well simply you would just password the channel. I can imagine it would be a lot of fun to have a TS server going Only issue I can think of is language as we have such a diverse pool of languages due to the predominantly European background of spring, and different levels of proficiency in the spoken English language.

Plus I'm from the UK, so we suck ass in languages

TS is closed source, we can't integrate it.. but there are probably open source alternatives although I haven't looked into it.

Well yeah, but it's quite the task to open a chan, set a pw, and pm it to everyone in your team; then if the game has to restart do the whole thing again. I'd love it, but setting that up for every game might be a bit tedious.

Springie could be updated to do this automatically I guess, that would be really cool.

But while language might be a bit of a problem, when talking slowly I think the problem would be overcomeable.

Just sending a TS channel name and PW automatically before the game starts, and doing it again if someone from one team joins another, would be cool. Of course, an open source VoIP program would be even better .


edit2:

For open source VoIP stuff see this place.

I won't be managing it however so someone needs to take the server admin role.

See SmuG had a TeamSpeak server for quite a while before iamacup killed it out of the blue (ARGH) hence I'm asking.

To address the first point: I'm actually quite normal ( ) IRL and on teamspeak

or no

But i might be able to host my own now, MMHMMM O_o

Teamspeak improves team games. FACT.

So yeah, it would be quite cool if there was a general spring server.

i didnt kill it, i didnt know it was dead


MOAR MOAN = MOAR COOL!

anyway, its back up.

edit: ive moved it to the new server, because the uf one is going walkies soon anyway.

http://www.smuggoat.net -> look on the right-hand side. And I should have some sort of rudimentary Teamspeak stats info up on the main page of th site by the time you read this.

zoombie is caboose.

dragon represents 99% of all smug activity and that's without even playing games.
