Yoyorast V2 - So damn close!

I just did some testing in a server with yohan. All the bugs have been worked out and the map is 100% crash free. :neckbeard: We have also cleared up a LOT of the framerate issues on low end computers.

The last thing to do on yoyov2 is to get the new menu in place. We are hoping to add a new menu to the map that will popup as soon as you join the server and ask you to select Host or Non-Host. The Host option will obviously be disabled for Non-Host players in the same way that the "New Game" and "Restart Game" options are disabled on a standard menu. Sinow is working on this at the moment but if anyone else knows how to do it then that would be a great help!

Have you tested in a dedi yet?

No problems on a dedi.

So when a dedi is running SAPP, the map still has problems? Wasn't that one of the things you were supposed to be fixing/looking into?

Yes.
Sort of.
No. Fuck SAPP.

You can set an event handler in a widget to run a script to check if the person is the host. If the script succeeds it'll run another widget that'll run the host script. You can have a conditional widget run if it fails, which can run the non host script.

Unless you require user input, then I wouldn't know how you'd blank out the host option off the top of my head :x

Yeah basically if the primary is_server check returns true I want a menu to come up with 2 buttons. 1 will say Host and the other will say Client. There's a flag to make a button grey out if you are not the host and well use that to grey out the host button forcing a non-host to hit the client button.

The reason I want this is because if a laggy player joins they end up as host sometimes (due to the time distortion) so I want a menu that asks the player if they are REALLY the host or not.

This is so awesome, it's getting so close it's like wating for Christmas

How long do you think it would take to finish that up?

Release Thursday/Friday, maybe yes?

Depends on when we figure out how to do it. If worst comes to worst we'll go back to the host "startup host-killer" sync system. That one was lag proof.

I used it on the DMT-Neutral Bomb maps.
