Re: Where did everybody go?

Hopefully everybody should be waking up from the summer sleep soon.

Re: Why were global.c/global.h implemented?

It seems previously there was a bunch of extern definitions were in client.h. As the client code base was separated from the server code base, it was probably cleaner to move all non-static definitions to globals.{c,h}. I agree though that we should try to remove excess definitions, especially those...

Re: Problem sending attachments

As for the .map extension, it is a bit confusing, because it doesn't tell which format it is. I think it is a good idea to rename to xp or xp2.

Re: Problem sending attachments

Without examining the content, not really. But why would you want to change the extension, instead of adding some version string at the end of the map name? E.g. bloods-5.0.xp.

Re: Problem sending attachments

Thanks for noticing the problem. Indeed, I've done some changes in PHP configuration recently. Should be working now.

Re: Request for a new forum: `Maps'

Done :-) I was considering a division into "user" and "developer" categories, but concluded there is still too low traffic for that.

Re: New Map... hyperrace.xp

Nice, an answer delayed by almost a year. I would expect that rather on #xpilot channel on freenode IRC ;-)

I've never seen the features from TODO in action, but they might be possible in XPilot 5 or ng - would have to check that. Anyway, they could be interesting additions.

Re: Use of gcc warning options to find code weaknesses

I agree we should eliminate most (if not all) warnings. Some can be harmless, but do not have to (e.g. "pointer targets in passing argument N of ‘XXX’ differ in signedness").

Re: New version of the Tutti Frutti map (mods by Vincent)

Interesting idea with two versions of the map. Perhaps it will players of different preferences (ball/item maps). What is a bit odd is that the friction block has effect only on players. I haven't tested it, but it might open a way to grab somebody's ball and cash it fast without a chance to retalia...

Re: src/server/netserver.c: Send_eyes

Very good point. I have found nothing in the git log of server that would indicate PKT_EYES was ever sent, but indeed it is supported. I guess somebody implemented it and then it was forgotten, or put back for an unknown reason. I will try sending the eyes packet in fxi server and see if there are n...
