What should we focus on. (Page 1 of 3)

Be able to see who's playing on a server from the serverbrowser.
Capture the flag!
Some sort of highscore?
Register a nickname?
More maps, or a decent mapeditor so the players can create maps and then upload them (here) or something.
A new weapon: Grenade-launcher, It would be great to have grenades that doesn't explode when they hit the wall/tee, instead explode after a second or so.
Anyway, this list may not have something that you should focus on for the next version but I thought this was the best place to post it.
Bye.

Sounds great.
Im not sure how the highscore should work, I just thought that a little statistics would be fun. Nothing major, but without a 'registered' nickname i belive that's gonna be hard.

And i realize that if 5 people have grenade-launcher it could be a bit chaotic.
Perhaps some sort of rocket-launcher that can take one bounce on the wall before explode? I think it would be nice to have some sort of weapon to reach anyone who's 'camping'.

Something else to fix:

The game should restart when the second player connects. So the first player doesn't have full armour when the round starts.

I thought about that nick registering thing and this is what I concluded. It's not something that will happen soon. There are a lot of other big tasks that needs to be done that are more important. It's something to think about perhaps 6-12 month and lets take that discussion then and look where teewars are then.

This rooms thing is possible to implement but it seams to be unnecessary logic to maintain when you can setup several servers on one machine instead. One main goal that I have with the code to Teewars is to keep it down as much as possible and not go out on some wicked mission . Keep it simple and clean, Teewars will benefit from this in the long term in forms of stability and ease of development.

We want more weapons because right now there is just four and you start with two of them.

* All weapons should have their purpose and not overlap each other too much.
* To kill with a weapon the target must be on the screen. We don't want spamming weapons.
* A weapon should not be able to do 10dmg on one firing.

Here are two ideas that I've come up with.

Sludge Gun

    * A weapon that shoots sludge at players.
    * Makes them move slower and heavier.
    * The more sludge the slower they move.
    * Stacks up to 2-3 times.
    * Low damage.

Mjolnir / Lightning Gun

    * Fires a lightning going straight forwards.
    * If it hits a player, it deals X damage
    * It jumps to players in the vicinity dealing X-1 dmg until X becomes zero
    * Should not deal as much damage on first target as rocket or shotgun
    * Should be used in situations where you fire at multiple targets more.

I'm gonna collect ideas at http://ix.teewars.com/trac/wiki/WeaponIdeas

Ticket added: http://ix.teewars.com/trac/ticket/96

Grenades: Makes the game to chaotic, we tried it
Flamethrower: Goes under the same category as grenades, usually very fuzzy, it's very hard show where and why you get damage.
Machine gun: Has no specific case of usage. And minimum damage that can be done is 1, so basically it will be a pistol with auto-fire.

Cross-hair: perhaps as an option yes.
Sensitivity: Oh yes, how did we miss this one?

Destroyable terrain: It's a cool thing but I think it can also destroy the game play. It would make it harder to move around on the map and such. The technical stuff around it isn't very nice either. But, perhaps some sort of destroyable stuff in the future, but not all.

In-game weapons display: Requested quite often, will make it into the game soon, but not 0.2.1 because it requires net-code change.

Climbing equipment: Hook rules Kinda makes the climbing equipment useless.

Stealth pack: hmm, Quake 1 tried this and I've never seen it since then. I think it can make players kinda frustrated. Perhaps a powerup like the ninja with some extra ability.

In answer to red com:
The standars crosshair system should still be availible, but you should also be able to choose a crosshair to have with all weapons.

Weapon ideas:

Poison dart:
The player gets one dart and throw it a short distance and it flys in an arch.
When a player is hit by the dart the poison makes the tee swell,
like a baloon and starts to rise from the ground making him unable to move
(except with the hook) and more vurnable to attacks (like double damage),
the poison would last max 2sec I think.
The dart does no damage by itself.

Throwing dagger:
The daggers would decline after some distance when thrown and not go in a straight line like a bullet.
Should do much damage as they are hard to hit with them.

Sticky bomb:
Thrown like a grenade but will stick to walls and tees and detonate after 1sec.

Stake gun:
Fires a large pole that goes through tees.
Say if there are two or three tees in a row it will hit and damage the first,
then continue through him and hit the second one and damage him
and then through him to the third and damage him.
(Maybe only go through one tee and maybe do less damage after each 'go through')

that'd rock

An installer for the Windows-version maybe?

If you feel that you don't have time or energy to learn how to use installers (like NSIS), I can sacrifice myself to make them (^_^) (both installers for the whole game and for updates).

Filtering for the server-list can be a nice feature, especially in the future when there may be alot more servers running.

Yeah, freedom is a bliss. However, most Windows-users are used to installers and in worst cases doesn't know how to use a zip (O.o)... exe and zip is the best solution, since everyone gets what they want.

(and as I said before, I can make an installer if ya want ;P)

minimap!
