tee for windows: http://www.robvanderwoude.com/tee.html#TeeNT

I don't have a lot of time to spend on this. With my setup on windows + TortoiseSVN, I can't easily apply your patch and see what the differences are. I've found TortoiseSVN sucks in general with patching support. When I ask for constructive feedback, here is what I mean. Instead of saying "Bec...

Luke, The approach I was using was the one suggested by Your_mom. Maybe you could explain to me why this is such a huge deal that you felt the need to tell everyone not to use my patch. This is what I'm running, this is what I'm maintaining. I'm not maintaining the changes you made in your patch. I'...

!!! GROSS RESOURCE STANDARD VIOLATION: Do not use that patch! >_< Umm, way to overreact? Maybe take this in stride instead of yelling. Technically, any of the ways we've ever run the CTF code violate this rule. Since we've been forbidden to upload new DTDs with new zone types, even though this won'...

Build didn't fail, but running it did. Very simple fix. Looks like the directory naming changed, and all that needs to happen is for the new directory name for "winlibs" to be updated in the codeblocks makedist.bat file.

Thanks!

I upgraded Sty to the SVN 0.2.8 branch. Only noticed one issue so far. Can someone fix the build_codeblocks/makedist.bat file to reference the "winlibs" directory instead of "armagetronad_winlibs"?

Thanks!

Starting a new thread for the patch as the old one has too much old stuff.

This patch was built from the SVN 0.2.8 branch. Please check that branch out from SVN, apply this patch, and build.

Great ideas guys.

EagleEye: Will it be better with ed's style map layout? I think that will improve things.

ed: I put your base/flag layout in my current map to see how it would work.

We'll see how it goes.

ed: I could put in multiple map spawn points, but that sounds like a lot of work. I like what wrtlprnft suggests, I think that would be easier for both implementation and for the map maker (and for dynamic updates). So, I'll add a FLAG_HOME_RANDOMNESS config. The flag will start out at the home posi...

Well, with the HTF support in, I could technically create a server config that does one flag CTF. So, instead of having a flag assigned to each team, there would be just one flag. Any ideas on how the rest of the config should be changed for a game like that? Or just regular Sty CTF except with one ...

ed: I think I'll experiment with some more fortress style physics. xevic: Good suggestions, I'll give those a try. I'll try out a 30 point max for flag holding, after which it goes back to center. I think you're right about less people too. Fonkay: My little connection isn't that great for running a...

Nah, lets start fresh. Let sleeping posts lie.

Ah, thanks Your_mom, appreciate it.

How about shortening up the wall length? I want to try to promote dog-fighting. I just changed it to 50 from 200. I could go shorter even. I decreased the rubber a bit too. If it still isn't working out, I'll try changing the hold time so it gets sent back home, but that will just make people camp t...

Hold The Flag is up now on the Pig Sty, based on a suggestion by Your_mom. Hold the flag to score points. Current settings are 10 points every 10 seconds. Automatic respawning. Thats about it. Let me know if you see any issues, like it, hate it. I'll leave it up for a couple days just to make sure i...
