Developing with Source requires either a license, or if we can make it some kind of mod (somehow), the players would still have to own a source game... And I don't think Source is a right engine either...

My splash is turned off anyway

Well, if you have a program that shows each frames separately, yes you can. But surely someone has made an automated tool for that already...

No but we can edit their post! Well, yeah we could ban them too, I guess Wasn't part of my plans though (yet).

Well, I think this topic answers quite well why you were banned... And that's just me taking a guess, honestly.

Do we have a .gif to tiled image converter somewhere?

Hey, Subspace Investigation Team, we need your help! Death Star Battle's imminent shutdown was announced, and you need to find out what dark forces are driving Hoch to do it. Surely he's threatened by an evil organization (or George Lucas himself) to take the Death Star down since it could unbalance the Universe.

I just started trying to do things in ASSS (A Small Subspace Server, some open-source alternative to subgame, for those who don't know), and I was thinking about switching 17th Parallel to it... Not that I never thought about it before, but now I see it as possible, not too hard, and I can think of a couple advantages. However, doing so would probably require changing host, which may be an issue for us (Mike would know more than me). I'm currently locked out of the zone for some reason, so I wouldn't mind that anyway And I heard MTN is also cursed, so basically the zone is in anarchy right now, with Delic probably being the active player with the most powers with access to the zone lol. What you think?

How the hell do you optimize a 1x1 png? Also, one could want to use bmp's since they do not need to be decompressed in any way, making them load faster. The difference in processing time is just as ridiculous as the filesize, though. Also, you have to keep in mind that the files will be zlib'd in the lvz anyway, so even bmp's will have a comparable filesize once compressed.

hahaha, I'll send that to my web designers friends...

It should be the responsibility of everyone capable of doing so to help newcomers, yet 95% of people will advise them to 'esc-q' to change ship or whatever. This behavior is widespread throughout continuum (and possibly most online games), but you're right that ops should give the example. I can't agree that ops in DSB act like that, because I don't play enough there and I can't judge, but if ops join in the 95% that try to drive away newbies, a change of staff (or at least of philosophy) is indeed required. And that goes for every zone, really.

Edited topic title

I edited it before you post, h4x0r

There you divide by (a-, which is 0 since a=b

Correction: Everyone called you a moron because you were being one. And if you had just shut up about it or replied something along the lines of 'Oh yeah smack me harder', like normal people would have done, everyone's life would have been much happier. And I would have 3 minutes of my life back.

So you're plugged directly to whoever is considered your ISP or something... I used to have ridiculous speeds too when our university residences used the university's connection. It showed up as the ISP, and I had somewhere around 10-15 Mb/s, and something like 6-8 Mb/s upload.

One thing is 100% certain, there WILL be at least a non-SSC clone of DSB. Someone will either get ahold of settings, or reverse-engineer them. Whether or not the clone can get on the biller is a whole other concern...

There is an option to have a 'beep' when you receive one. Look in the options (from main menu: View -> Options...), probably in the Sound or Chat tab. You could change the color of PM's, but it would change the color of all green text, so it wouldn't help you much

Yeah, to register a new name, you'll have to type in a password, and if the username (Player Name, not Profile name) is taken, it will tell you 'invalid password', but if it's not taken, it will register the name with the password you entered. You'll get a dialog to register where you can enter your e-mail address (recommended if you lose your password; and you won't get any kind of email from this ever)

17th parallel's IP is blocked? Or 17th has your IP blocked?

Which is still quite enough to blind you, seeing as even 1mW lasers can be dangerous. But you're right that it's probably not instantaneous

If we wanted the game to go out on a high note, we would have made sure Continuum died long ago.

Turreting with flags is fun... Hunting a turret with flags is also fun, I don't see the problem. Unless his own entire team wanted him to get in the base or something. But one advice Courage, ops might be more inclined to listen to opinions if they're not in topics titled 'YO DICKBAGS'. First of all the title is so unspecific some people won't even bother reading it. And secondly, there's the obvious 'He won't respect me, why would I listen to his opinion anyway'. And don't take it too personally, most people tend to do this when they are irritated.
