Loading map issues

Post by Goran »

When i save in my map in the editor, it doesn't automatically change the map in my server, and i need to close and re-open it for the changes to load

I remember this to be working in a very early ddnet version but somehow it was removed or I simply forgot how to use it .___.
So yeah, an automatic reload would actually be really nice for mapping and testing.

For now, you can just type 'reload' in f2 instead of re-open the whole map. But that's obviously not the best solution either.

You have to connect to your server on localhost, 127.0.0.1. We disabled it for all other servers because otherwise when you're logged in on an official DDNet server, and edit the map, a reload would be triggered, which is useless since the map is on another server and it also kills all players, removing their progress. Unfortunately by default when you connect to a LAN server, it's not 127.0.0.1.

Aww, thanks :)
Just tested it and it works perfectly, might be adding this information to some tutorial threads soon.

Oh, and you can add 127.0.0.1 to your favourites and connect via there everytime you use LAN server.
