I had an idea, it consist on make a vanilla server with only 1 map, and that map have a tutorial on how to join ddrace, mayb that works rofl.

Cuz people doesn't know that filter exists and when you firts start teeworlds you only see ctf and dm tdm

No, we should just accept that the TW devs don't want to promote/support mods.

sad

Edit: i cant see the logic in that, wtf? something that supports your game to grow up and you don't support it.

It's not our decision. TW Devs just don't want to support mods, and our community. That's bad, but what we can do with it :/?


Btw, At beginning, you have enabled two filters: Only standard maps, and only standard gametypes.

There's another one about compatibility.

It's not dumb, there are several reasons to no actively(!) support mods. They usually lack some sort of quality (also ddnet e.g. ninja skin in freeze, no hud support with scoreboard, no specific sounds, ..). Additionally the developers can't maintain or give active support as they have no influence on the mod developement and also can't spare time to do so. Personally it's pretty annoying to give support in the official forum thread (https://www.teeworlds.com/forum/viewforum.php?id=4) as you don't now which client or server they use. Just some (subjective) reasons, there are more!
Overall the developers are not against mod, but simply don't activley push them as it involves alot of extra work which should be rather spend on developing the actual game. Personally I'm fine with the current situation, speaking as contributor to teeworlds and ddnet.
