why?

when mapping game tiles, you should never mirror them. instead, rotate them to get them in the correct direction

is there an auto-function ($ command) that fixes this? by detecting which stopper is mirrored and adjusting them so they're compatible?

not yet, but yeah, its way overdue I guess

Thanks for your solution, I have passed it on to the map writer ;3

no error log now

awesome

where's mapper?

i mean it's not like they had much to reply to

When release or decline then?

Just be patient. There maps that are waiting for few months, or even 5-6 months, this map was submitted only 1 week, it's not too much. Testing resources are very limited. Novice/moderate maps are getting tested faster than brutals tho.

I'm not a tester guy, but here is my two cents.

IMO its not worth to release this map. The work on tiles are pretty decent, but parts could be much better. IMO this map would be a good candidate for the ddmax server, but it doesnt fit ddnet server.

The parts are pretty basic and repetitive, I've also seen all these parts in the old ddmax maps.

This is a good attempt, but it just doesn't fit nowadays ddnet standarts. Parts should be more creative and unique. (Check some recent maps: Rotate, Tobi, oco, Spoon, etc)

and this one

rly ? ddmax and what have server to map style ? I don't see anything similar https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=The+Tower https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Skyisland3 https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Insane https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Inspire https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=IronFlight https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Nightmare https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=lemonland

when you all will learn that making a map with Simple Drag Parts has nothing to do with ddmax.

btw this map fits ddnet pretty well : https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Justix https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=MonkeyDream https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=2+easy+for+u https://ddnet.tw/mappreview/?map=Plan+A

Yes sorry my bad 🙂 But I've seen so many similar parts on the ddmax server, so I got the impression that this is ddmax's thing 🙂

And yes I agree that there are ddnet maps with similar mechanic (and even worse).

I personally like ddmax maps, there are plenty cool maps there

But can you argue that this map is a bit too repetitive? 🙂

Btw Tsin do u have a bot that notifies u if someone said "ddmax" somewhere? 😄

"Btw Tsin do u have a bot that notifies u if someone said "ddmax" somewhere?" hmmmm probably, maybe, no pick the one you like ^^

Info to the mapper We all know u can make this map better, just spice it up. Add kill tiles here and there. Change normal hook walls into hookthrough with teleports and make the parts a lot harder with a mix of speeders or stoppers. We've seen this kind of maps too many times. Give us something fresh. We all know u can do it. Just give it a time and then come back with something challenging =]

Plan A 👀

Again Tsin triggered on "ddmax"

please don't spam my bot (which I obviously don't have and which I never created, because for what reason I would even need one) ^^

"We all know u can make this map better, just spice it up. Add kill tiles here and there. Change normal hook walls into hookthrough with teleports and make the parts a lot harder with a mix of speeders or stoppers." Worst piece of advice I've read in a while. How can't it mislead him ?

oco

times tsin has gotten mad about ddmax since may: 2

so far we are on a daily streak of 2

so reply on anything related to ddmax suddenly makes me mad ? I truly wonder where do you see anything being me mad in what I wrote. now im only waiting for you to get out with rule #7

so far I don't see any of yours piece of advice

there's no drama, im keeping count for fun

It's better to say nothing than to give a deceiving piece of advice. Making a map is not the same as making a pizza.

This is exactly what went wrong with Mult0map so you have a real-world example of this too

Yes, unfortunately I'm well aware of that, and yet, that's another drama

drama? is discussing how a map was poorly adapted drama? i guess we are so concerned with drama we would rather not discuss potential improvement to testing

more accurate to say it's off-topic, and on that basis ill stop chatting about it

Oh sorry, I guess you don't know about the "behind the scene" of that map

nope, some people said some things but not enough to know everything

tsin and lynn, if u arent gonna test stuff then dont send messages

send them in another channel

and if ur gonna send something not related then dont send a whole paragraph

nor something that incites argument

Let me send them to the real mapper

thx

MMM.. well

i thought you read the other feedback that i gave u on the other map that u submit, so ill not going into details like b4

the map cant be released bcs of his nature, ddnet staff are not looking simple drags maps anymore, so try to avoid it specially for long boring parts as this (just an example)

or this

there is not much to say, the map is really monotonic

as usual, try to bring something creative and check NEW maps so u can have an idea 😄

thx

agree

$decline

see you next time
