what is cps

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:20 PM

second map is missing cps

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:20 PM

why

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:20 PM

remove blue layer

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:21 PM

time cps are these numbers. Add them from 1 to x through your map, so you will touch them in your playthrough to show the player how fast he is in comparison to his best time

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:23 PM

also about shields: Place them with one free space between them. Looks better and more overview and still works. Use normal shields if there is no special reason to use the weapon specified shields (i.g. in the first part)

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:23 PM

ik it buuut... it doesnt working cuz i can just save shotgun then

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

what is blue layer??

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

oh

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

top grass?

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

sad

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

but its my decoration

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:24 PM

you cannot keep a weapon if shields are placed every second tile

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

okay

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

if the layer is marked blue it means its not used anywhere in the map

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

ohhh

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

okay

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

ill try it

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:25 PM

also 2,2mb is quite big. I think Ravie can help in scaling that down. Especially on such a small map

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:26 PM

okay, when is Ravie can help?

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:26 PM

oh okay

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 2:26 PM

idk, he will probably see it himself

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:26 PM

okay

vertezzo 07/12/2023 2:26 PM

ill change the map and i will waiting Ravie

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 5:25 PM

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/12/2023 5:25 PM

popcorn181 07/12/2023 5:31 PM

Corner

popcorn181 07/12/2023 5:31 PM

Here's a better alternative to the stopper design:

popcorn181 07/12/2023 5:33 PM

Don't place freeze in tele

@vertezzo

don't worry about it for now, one of us will optimize the file size if we decide it's gonna be released

vertezzo 07/13/2023 1:21 PM

Ohh thank for all testers ^^

vertezzo 07/13/2023 5:15 PM

ᶰ°Konͧsti 07/13/2023 7:28 PM

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 5:51 AM

b0mf 07/14/2023 6:56 AM

Hello! I wouldn’t come to these channels if you’re not familiar with the creation of testing and mapping :D

vertezzo 07/14/2023 7:03 AM

cronyxer 07/14/2023 7:04 AM

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:40 PM

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:40 PM

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:40 PM

$optimize

DDNet 07/14/2023 4:40 PM
vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:40 PM

2.1

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:41 PM

-100mb maybe good

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:41 PM

I haven’t test your map but you need to low the weight of the file

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:42 PM

but i dont know how to low it

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:42 PM

how i can do this?

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:42 PM

i think in my map is good design

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

I watched the preview and your map doesn’t look like a 2mb map

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

maybe

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

maybe it just a unused tiles

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

oh

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

i deleted they

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:43 PM

Y

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:44 PM

its a short map but why 2.1 mb

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:45 PM

at all i dont know how to low it

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:48 PM

Take your map and use the tool extract map that is on the same document as ddracenetwork then it will download all the mapres that you used and you will see the main problems with the kb

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:49 PM

oh

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:49 PM

but if my map will delete?

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:49 PM

im afraid

arrowastaken 07/14/2023 4:49 PM

No it won’t xd….

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:51 PM

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:55 PM

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:55 PM

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:55 PM

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:56 PM

but how?

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:56 PM

i have tele, freeze and other freeze (decoration for markers on map)

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:57 PM

yes u can use the same for all

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:57 PM

if u need only one tile from other sets, just cut it out and copy it to the other tileset

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:58 PM

u used ddnet tiles only for start/finish line

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:58 PM

yep

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:58 PM

i dont know how to use photoshop and i dont have it

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:58 PM

sad

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

1 spawn on the ground are enough in solo maps

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

okay

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

lemme change it

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

other way is just delete all u dont need

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

i deleted alr

vertezzo 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

1mb for map is good?

coke1465 07/14/2023 4:59 PM

but add the sets after editing again

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM

wait

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM

lemme send it

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM

maybe its good

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM

woah

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM
vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:00 PM

a littel bit less than 1mb

vertezzo 07/14/2023 5:03 PM

is that good or no?

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:37 PM

u can jump over here

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:38 PM

u can use edge here to go directly down

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:38 PM

that part was awful to play

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:39 PM

last part cheatable

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:43 PM

for ur first map its good, but the map is not interesting at all

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:43 PM

often u used weapons for one move, try to work more with weapons

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:44 PM

i think u should take a deeper look at the solo section and play some maps there

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:45 PM

also try to balance ur map

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:45 PM

design was ok

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:46 PM

u should start a completely new map

coke1465 07/14/2023 5:46 PM

$decline

texnonik 07/14/2023 6:50 PM

it's boring

texnonik 07/14/2023 6:51 PM

the start looked very promising last part is bad , you just added it because you didn't had ideas i think

texnonik 07/14/2023 6:52 PM

need to create and test it more , more varietions of parts and it will be good !
