That's true. But when we get like 6 people it will be better and easier.

Bugs(new version)
1. When you switch to hammer you can't switch back.
2. For some reason it takes a while to open the Building menu. Also to build something it wont do it at first but after a while it will.
3. When you go into the research menu you can not get out of it and you have to re connect.
4. The scifi rifle's recoil is very strong but when you are scoping it wont recover from its recoil. It will stay at the top and you have to manually look for the person again.
5. The dot on your map is just idle.(FIXED)
6. There is a little green button on the top left corner???
7. People on the list do not appear on the list but in the game. (Needs further testing but I saw it once where if a person in the game has their name on then they appear but needs more testing to confirm.)

Suggestions
1.Make text black. White is hard to see.
2.Slow down the cloud effect. If it is snow drifts or mist it is fine but if they are clouds they go really FAST.

Pretty fun. Next time choose the other map so they can try it, haha.

EDIT: By the way, your server has great ping. I noticed that players jerk depending on their framerate, but as far as ping it is really good. With four of us on so far no problems.

The game auto-starts when six players join btw.

I can't, sorry, I have a huge exam to study for tomorrow, and I'm doing repairs on my other computer anyway so I can't play and host at the same time...
Friday I'll hopefully be able to though.

[EDIT] Sorry, I don't think I can get it back online tonight, it's late and I can't really deal with computer problems at the moment...

He may not be able to put it up tonight. One thing I will be working on this evening, though, is fixing the server list. I'll let you all know how it goes!

EDIT: Emailed you all an update! When I get back tomorrow I will have the weekend to fix other bugs. Hopefully the server list problem is fixed.

I had to turn it off because my other computer wasn't working. Today I'll try and get it online for longer, and hopefully I can play.

[EDIT] It's up.

Also, I have suggestions for the server (in order of priority):
-Allow servers to chat with clients
-More information aka score, time online, player ips
-Allow commands to be sent to the server via chat (server has text file with admin usernames)
-Separate server exe that doesn't use menu
-Make it windowed 640x480 (Will help when managing the server)
-Allow the servers to have names that appear on the list

Thanks for the error reports and suggestions guys. I'll definitely look into them. I'm in a hurry so I'll have to go over them thoroughly later.

You had to re-enter your key? Replacing your exe should not make you need to enter your product key. :S

Haha, well, I'm still at my college campus, but after I get back it will be the weekend!

Arg, but I can't believe it STILL doesn't work. If you leave the server up, TheNerd, it should be a lot easier for me to fix this evening because I can test it before sending it out.

[EDIT] Meh, sorry, but I can't keep it online, because I've misplaced my other internet cord, so the only other computer I have is running off of WiFi. I could run it on that computer, but there'd likely be huge lag...

I can't host cause my router sucks and can't assign me a static ip address.

I think I know what the problem is. You need to copy that file I sent you into the main Time Front folder, where you installed it. Sorry, I should have clarified this.

I would host, but I only have one laptop with me, and as I explained before, I don't have access to a router.
When I'm next at home, I can do it then, because I have another good desktop which I don't use much

BUG: You can still click outpost even if you haven't researched it. You still lose your resources -.-.
BUG2: If someone tells you to go somewhere and points there with a map marker, you lose your player marker.
BUG3:THe commander role does not pass on if the commander leaves.
BUG4: If you made a new building and its still ghosty, you can glitch and see what behind it. Pic attached. Its my resolution so its very big(the pic).

DO NOT DESTROY ANYTHING WE MADE WHOEVER PLAYS. ESPECIALLY THE TOWN.

Yes I saw that two... It basically a cham or hack.

Bugs(new version)
1. When you switch to hammer you can't switch back.
2. For some reason it takes a while to open the Building menu.
3. There is a little green button on the top left corner???
4. People on the list do not appear on the list but in the game. (Only appear when they rejoin the game)
5. The hammer does not repair buildings.
6. When you have an outpost and you spawn there you have only the hammer.
7. You can not get a bow from archery
8.There is nothing in the gun range. Even when you research all the guns.
9. Constantly falling through the map and sometimes you dont die.

Suggestions
1.Slow down the cloud effect. If it is snow drifts or mist it is fine but if they are clouds they go really FAST.

Also, I have a suggestion: Instead of making buildings only available near the resource they harvest, maybe have them be buildable anywhere, but gain resources at a speed based on the distance from that resource. That way, it would be easy to make towns, but you'd still have to have strategy on where to position the buildings.
Maybe we should have a list of suggestions and bugs...

I just made a list and Uncle Sam could make it official.

Since this is Beta testing when will we get teams? A score? The new map? The forest map? The vehicle? The other guns? We should really start testing more things... Then we could play!!
