Level editor online!

Tue 20-Dec-2011

Today the level editor was added to the game and is accessible from the main menu. It's fairly straight forward to use, and the in game help explains exactly how to use the editor.

When you save a map it is saved locally to your computer, and you can select it when you are hosting a game. Soon there'll be the ability to upload your creations to a central database of maps which anyone can play and rate.

Other updates include:

  • Fixed bug causing a crash when trying to quit a game
  • Fixed bug causing a newly registered users stats to not be updated in their first game
  • Fixed bug that caused saved login info to be wiped with new updates

Fixed the crash

Wed 09-Nov-2011

Fixed a serious error introduced in the latest update causing the game to crash after the second round.

User accounts and mouse aiming

Mon 07-Nov-2011

A significant update has been released, the two biggest changes being user accounts and the addition of aiming with the mouse.

Getting an account means all of your statistics are tracked and can be compared with other players. The only things needed to set up an account are your chosen username and password. Achievements and global leaderboards for kills, round wins etc will be added soon.

Getting an account is optional, you can play as a guest to get right into it.

The option to aim with the mouse has also been added. This means your tanks turret will aim independently of your tank, directly at your mouse. Your tanks direction is controlled the same as before.


Other smaller updates:

  • Fixed incorrect spawn position on level 8
  • Added damage sound for when you get hit
  • Added new tank explosion sound
  • Fixed ping bars showing 1 bar briefly
  • Fixed health info not being sent to people joining mid game
  • Added new tank explosion sound

Tank damage and small improvements

Wed 19-Oct-2011

  • Sound effect and music mute buttons added to lobby
  • Added WASD tank control
  • Fixed bug causing controls to stick
  • Fixed bug causing more than one instance of the music to play at once
  • Added visible tank damage. Your tank will start to give off flames once your health drops below half, and burn more intensely as your health continues to drop. This should give a rough indication of other players health, without explicitly giving away how many more hits it will take to kill them.

Minor improvements and a new map!

Fri 14-Oct-2011

The quality of each players connection is now shown in the lobby. 5 bars is a ping under 100ms, 4 bars is 100 to 200ms, 3 bars is 200 to 300ms, 2 bars is 300ms to 400ms, and 1 bar is anything over 400ms. The server browser has been improved slightly, with more games visible, and a new large map has been added.

Room passwords

Tue 11-Oct-2011

All game rooms can now set a password so only players that know the password can join.
