To start off, I’ve been working on my Fretta gamemode. To be more specific, on the developing map which just acts as a map to test gamemode mechanics. I’ve been having trouble with actually moving water, so I decided to move the level down instead. Here’s a video of it:
Someone did state that clientside prediction might not do so well with moving level architecture, so I might use moving water after all. What do you guys think? Good prediction or fancy water?
The work I’ve finished for Evolve is equally awesome (I guess). Let me start off with the spelling suggestion feature. Has it ever annoyed you when you typed
!ramk mingebag superadmin
and it responds with Unknown command ramk and you’re all like
Fuck, now I need to retype that shit, just because I hit the M key instead of the N
Now that isn’t a problem anymore with the built in spelling suggestion feature. Instead of giving back Unknown command, it will know that you meant !rank instead and correct you. So from now on you can reload the map with !reloasd!
Anyway, here’s the progress on the Lua version of the photoshopped concept I had posted earlier in the What are you working on? thread on Facepunch:
It’s far from done, but I think the result so far is pretty cool. Remember that the admin menu is going to be integrated in it. However, I’m not targeting sandbox servers only with this admin mod, other gamemodes will use their default scoreboards and the admin menu will be shown another way. Let me know your suggestions and other comments.
I also decided to enter Evolve as tag in the server browser, just to see the result and found out 20 servers are already running the mod. That’s pretty cool and rewarding for me. More so because I’ve not in any way advertised it and it’s only available by SVN.
Finally, I’d like to congratulate my server host, since it’s been doing pretty well despite the activity in my build server. I’m pretty sure they’re one of the cheapest hosts after UKGame.com, but then again UKGame.com fails big time.
Happy holidays.. and I’m preparing a surprise for you guys!
I can’t wait for v1.0 of Evolve on my server. The scoreboard mock up looks great. I take it we will easily be able to change the banner image of the scoreboard? This is looking to be the best admin mod ever.
I’m loving that scoreboard <3
omg im on scoreboard
Good Job so far.
Thanks to the great lua search you made.

Holy Crap that looks great. i just really hope you add admin blocking plugin not allow admin effect higher ranking admin. plus i dont think your going to forget the weapons, entities, and vehicles plugint o allow owner to make them admin only or not.
I’m really looking forward to this!
I found an interesting bug concerning Evolve. It might be a conflicting addon, but I can’t be sure. When I open the Evolve menu, it spams an error saying:
ev_menu/tab_a_players.lua:154: attempt to index field ‘?’ (a nil value).
And when I try to type ‘ev god’ or something like that, it spams this error three times:
ev_framework.lua:335: attempt to index field ‘?’ (a nil value)
I found the exact line for the framework error and it’s on line 335 saying ‘rank self:GetNWstring blahblahblahblah owner’
Any ideas?
Ugh wrong line it’s this function _R.Player:EV_HasPrivilege( priv )
return self:GetNWString( “EV_UserGroup” ) == “owner” or table.HasValue( evolve.ranks[ self:GetNWString( "EV_UserGroup" ) ].Privileges, priv )
That scoreboard… Would be so nice right about in the next month or two. Also Moar blog posts dude, just about 2 months since a post… I live for these posts.
Admin mod broken D:l Hook ‘PlayerSpawn’ in plugin ‘Player Info’ failed with error:
ev_framework.lua:280: attempt to index field ‘PlayerInfo’ (a nil value)
