[Torr Samaho]

Take it easy buddy, it'll all work out.

Hopefully this is the last alpha before the final release. If you want to speed things up just revert any changes made by Zalwea and you're good to go.

Can we not? Thanks.

I know you're trying to joke around but don't incite anything

In the June 25 version, the Players Can Walk Through Each Other flag appeared to be not working, but it seems to be working in this version.

[Sean]

Oh yeah this is on TSPG since this mroning

Here's some x64 Linux builds: tar.xz + debugging info.

Maps that rely on voodoo dolls are broken when survival is enabled,they disappear.
I encountered this on Map23 of valiant and did some testing with the exact dmflags and just toggling survival with full map resets.

I did a google search and this popped up.

I just went through this map on survival with all dmflags set to 0, used "kill" at the exit and then went through it again. The map seems to work okay. I also made a box map with voodoo doll and the voodoo doll survives full map reset. What dmflags are you using?

[thevarian]

I used the flags on the tspg SNS server. I just disconnect via console and tested map23 like that.

I think it's reported as this one: http://zandronum.com/tracker/view.php?id=2510

[thevarian]

Understood, although before I tested on singleplayer multiple routes became impossible to progress during online play due to the terrain not shifting from voodoo dolls.

[Empyre]

There is implementation for voodoo dolls in the single-player with multiplayer emulation mode. Could this be related to that?

Voodoo dolls and ingame joining are conceptually incompatible, so Zandronum has to do some workarounds to make them work to a certain degree. There are several cvars to tune their behavior: sv_coopspawnvoodoodolls, sv_coopunassignedvoodoodolls and sv_coopunassignedvoodoodollsfornplayers. One of the limitations currently is, that the clients know nothing about the dolls, only the server does. Because of this the dolls are invisible on the clients.

For finalizing 3.0, the most important questions is whether anything voodoo doll related worked in 2.1.2, but does not anymore in 3.0. So, does 2.1.2 work any better for you in this regard?

obviously the above stuff from the devs but careful next time. I just kind of laundry list checked some compat flags to get a little closer to boom. I plan to do full rigorous flag setup whenever I get to it. voodoo dolls have worked pretty well in this port though so the default settings must be good.

I tested valiant online using zan 2.1.2:

-default dmflags, voodoo dolls works

-dmflags matching as close as possible tspg sns server, voodoo dolls works

And if you do exactly the same (in particular with your own local server if you did that with 2.1.2) with the latest 3.0 beta the voodoo dolls do not work?

[thevarian]

I apologize for this goose chase i just noticed the sns server is version 170625-1906 and when i tested the default dmflags and exact dmflags the voodoo dolls work on 170709-2004.

[Torr Samaho]

No, problem. I'm happy to hear that 3.0 works as it should!

(Running some servers on a raspberry pi3 - I'm discussion issues I have now and did not have to that extent with 2.1.2)
