The sky is blue…

… Which means we are now on BlueSky! It’s been long discussed that it’s time to open up more to social medias. So here is, have a BlueSky!

We will post community events as well as on Discord, and server-updates when applicable. Stay tuned for more info!

Opening a Github repository to report bugs

One important decision I had to make was to figure out how to report bugs easily and quickly, as it’s very easy to forget lots of different issues reported by the community. But I don’t want users to create accounts for X or Y place, because they all know how annoying it can be.

So I decided to create a Github repository. There you can report issues, and suggest ideas for our servers : want new maps? Potentially some improvements you’d like to see? Who knows, just ask!

Please also note that the bugreporter is not only limited to the games we are hosting, but also the services around it too. 🙂

CS:Source v34 – New gameserver & improvements

It has been caught that the CSSv34 server was used way more than I myself expected.

The PUG server has thus been moved to port 20027, with some changes with it in terms of stability and content. It has also become more stable with a new randomization algorhythm.

The usual BugFixing™

Despite the additions given to our CSSv34 servers, I have also made some QoL changes to the servers. Here’s the list of updates:

• You can now say !bug in the chat to get our GitHub link for reporting bugs & suggestions.

Half-Life 1

• Removed the “Arcade” settings in the Fun server.
• Happy Hours is now enabled on the Fun server!

• Fixed the Settings menu not appearing by default.
• joinspectator now has a check for value 2 that does not add you to the arena queue.

• More slight BOT rebalancing for the CSDM server.
