Interface

Thanks. We are pushing a fix for this now as v358c.

In the final scoreboard of a match there's a thumbs up button next to each player

For now to play the Wipeout maps in Aim Arena you can use these commands in the commands box

game_mode: ca;

game_wipe_out_mode: 1;

Ah, actually appreciate the nudge. It's a confusion that I've been dealing with for a long time. Packet and package are the same in my native language :)

Hey, I didn't do that, I wasn't even aware of it until I read the patch notes. We do have a small team, I'm not alone doing all this or anything like that :) (I'd name the programmer in charge of the masterserver but I don't think he'd like that).

Also we mainly scan the subs to see what people is most frustrated about. And this is probably a good chance to encourage people not to read the patch notes as a reflection of our priorities. Sometimes important things are being worked on in "the background" for long periods of time before they are finally released. Sometimes unimportant things are worked on because they are adjacent to something else that is being worked on and it becomes convenient to do so. Sometimes small things are fixed because non-programmer people in the team are in a position to do so without taking time from programmers. Sometimes we just see somebody asking for something with a ton of upvotes and we realise that maybe we made a mistake not prioritising ...

We'll try to get this done next week. This weekend we are going to focus on some spectator issues for the tournament.

Netcode

• Further improved the reliability of hitscan registration under packet loss conditions

Maps

• Improved the splash damage detection on stairs in all Wipeout maps and their Brawl versions, TDM/Extinction maps, Macguffin maps, Duel maps and Aim Arena maps

Gameplay

• Fixed an issue with players not dying when falling out of the map
• Time Trials can now be played while having empty teams in a lobby (no longer requires the Team Count setting to be set to 1 in order to be playable and not end immediately, when starting a public multiplayer match, team count 1 is recommended for all players to be on one team)
• Fixed and returned /gg as a forfeit console command when playing Duel

Masterserver and matches

• Lowered the minimum number of players required for FFA game modes to start to 4
• Matchmaking tweaks to help low ranked players find games fast...

Sorry, that sounds frustrating. We've brought it back and fixed the original issue, it'll be back in 358 in a few hours.

Correct, this is working as intended as per the current implementation, the splash volume is very simply projected hemispherically. When you fire at the horizontal quad of a stair-step this hemisphere faces up, when you fire at the vertical quad this hemisphere faces you. I've now brought it up as a design change and we are OK with "modernising" this. I imagine we are going to create ramp-shaped envelopes for the stair pieces that any splash-creating projectiles will collide against instead of the normal collision hull complex and that will give you a more intuitively oriented hemispherical projection of the damage without affecting how things currently work when splashing around other convex accidents.

The slight problem with this is that if you are shooting sideways alongside one of these stairs there's now going to be this invisible right triangle that splash projectiles would collide against, but this situation should be rare and we can probably avoid this by making sur...
