Thanks ~
Hi, I'm Icy.
I love creating maps, especially for good old FNG.
Now, I would love to host my own new OpenFNG server, but would live to change few things in it which I don't prefer and add some new ideas to it.
But as I'm a terrible programmer by myself right now, I'm asking for someone's help.
Is there anyone who could help me?
Let me know...
Thanks in advance!
If you're a terrible programmer you might want to work on that first 
That being said, what modifications do you have in mind?
Oh, never though you would actually reply me... but makes since since it's you mod.
Well I would like to add few thing into fng - like armor piece, which would block one shot to the bearer.
Anyway... were do you suggest me to learn C++, to be effective in future programming in Teeworlds?
I can code teeworlds to make a mod or some kind, but I don't really sure what you want.
It's totally okay if just "a few" like you said.

Oh that's great! So would you be willing to help me? I would be so happy 
But first, let me ask - have you ever played OpenFNG mode?
Just so I know if you know the rules of the gamestyle by itself xD

Of course, one of my favor mods.
Ok, great.. Mine too since old FNG, hehe.
I wish you could fix 2 things for my server, that's not like a "new thing"
Would you be able to add ticking to frozen tees?
And would you be able to add command for repetitive hammer?
I don't really catch with you.
Could you be more detailed?

Hm, that depends a bit on your situation - if you're absolutely new to programming, i would stay away from C++ until you know at least one less complicated programming language, so that you don't have to swallow both, the basic concepts common to all languages AND the shitload of complexity coming with C++ in one go. Attempting to do that tends to frustrate newcomers and eventually drive them away from programming.
I'm gonna suggest what i always suggest, for a solid way of starting programming:
1. get a unix-like operating system (i.e. GNU/Linux or *BSD)
2. get a copy of 'The C Programming Language, 2nd edition' (commonly refered to as the K&R)
3. Work through the book, doing the exercises
That should provide a reasonable starting point into the twisted world of C++
I don't really catch with you.
Could you be more detailed?
Alright... Umm, I need to learn more words in English lol...
So, in actual OpenFNG: when I host a server, there is no repetitive hammer. Like if you hold "left" mouse, it will just swing once, instead of repetitive swinging as in old FNG. Could you fix that?
And in old FNG, there was ticking sound every second for frozen tees. Would it be possible to add it there?

Wow, that sounds frustrating. I think I will rather take the graphical path in my life - graphics, video, animation, etc.
Yes, that's what I've heard - C++ is getting more and more complicated. So what you're saying is that it would take me at least a year to get some results...

Huh, it's not really getting harder as time goes on, it's just hard.

A bit less if you're motivated, but yeah, you're not too far.

Okay, this is kind of easy. But I didn't actually know how was it like in old FNG, like what sound to use, how long will take between two hammer swing.
I'll make a simple change of that. I can adjust if it's not you suppose to be.
and, I can only build a windows binary.
Can you compile by yourself if you are using a linux server?
or you just using windows for server?
Well, that's just the easiest thing and the most crucial. (for me )
- the ticking sound, which was used is named "wp_noammo-03.wv"
- hammer speed is 8 times per 1 second (but it's irregular - sometimes a bit faster, sometimes a bit slower)
Edit:
Yes, that's even better - Windows is good for me.
Done!
Windows 32-bit:

You have to add these command to your config to enable your feature:
sv_tick_sound 1
sv_super_hammer 1Umm, why did it say, when I've downloaded it, that the file is dangerous?

OMG you are THE best! I would like to hug you right now!
Anyway, would you dare to add some harder stuff?
Edit:
Forgot to say Thanks! in that excitement...

Because it is potentially dangerous. Never run the .exe from the internet. Instead you should get the patch to the teeworlds source code, review it, apply and compile yourself. That is the only way to insure you aren't running any kind of virus or backdoor.

Don't worry, I trusted him

Maybe... what kind?

Alright, now I know this would take much more time to create, but just to give you an idea...
Now, imagine a typical ninja powerup - when somebody picks it up, he would get resistance to 1-10 hits (set in config file) displayed in *shield icons* - 1 shield would represent one hit you could take without freezing, and the Ninja by itself would freeze anyone who would he cut through. Is it possible?
To sum it up:
- ninja powerup working
- adjustable number of hit being able to take
- ability to set "ninja powerup" respawn time
So what do you think?
First, try sv_ninja settings in the mod.
I don't know is that you want.
Tried that, it makes it visible, but nothing happens after picking up.
Alright, but you know what? Don't work on that for now, I'll think think things through much more.
---
But one thing I had in mind for a long time - and I know it would be fun thing to be added is working shields.
If you wish to help me add anything, then please do this.
- add option to have shields visible in maps
- set how much shields does one laser shot takes (for example 3 - so 3 or more shields would block a shot, but 2 or less wouldn't)

Okay, I'll try. Maybe it will be a new mod branch. XD
Oh, thank you, thank you. You are so kind!
So when you're done with it tell me, I will post you name in my maps as a honor.
Till then, I will set my server up.
Icy ~
hey freddie i sent you a pm so as not to threadjack
TsFreddie please tell me every progress of modding, because I am so excited about this thing.
You can even give unfinished projects for testing.
