Have another  bug, in fact its more of gameplay issue. When both teams have eachothers flag, nobody can make a point and both teams can hide in their Spawn Rooms. In that way you can stall the game indefinitly. Of course you can try to make some kind of truce with the other team, but you can be certain that this is not going to work. I think that it would be better if people who have a flag are unable to enter their own Spawn Room.


Oh, and I want to drop the line I said about the Levitating Mines. They are awesome items and you should keep them like this. You can create very nice strategies with them.

:D

I have prepared a draft of the translation.
It would be ideal to connect it externally)

If you have any recommendations on the length of words - for example, specify them with an * in the text, try to find a synonym for a smaller length.

By the way, version 1.73 for some unknown reason I can not create your own server. Does not respond to pressing "Create Publi game ". In a chat write that the problem is not with me alone.

That's because he wrote \ instead of /
Comments on the translation:
It's "присоединиться"
I'd advise finding a better translation for cybermason, like, say, "строитель" or "шахтер", because just transliteration is... ugh.
"Cloaker" could be translated as "плащ-хамелеон" or something akin to that. I admit it's hard to find a translation for that that still fits the text field.
I can't seem to find a better translation for "dirt bomb", either, but what it is now sounds a bit wrong.
Why not use the direct translation for the word "orb", "шар"?
I assume you didn't use "вертолет" for "chopper" because of the lack of space?
"Экскаватор" is completely wrong, because it's named after a different core principle of digging than what is used by the digger.
There are some minor typos but I assume they'll be fixed.

* Urist McDorf is useless and can only give sagely (not really) advice because someone was faster than him.

I second that.

Also, I can translate it to spanish if you are interested in more localization

[Hempuli‽]

I agree wholeheartedly with the spawn point, and with all of Qqwy's suggestions apart from the coloured nicknames. (Music is being composed by shojin so I don't think I need help for that!)

Version 1.74 coming up tonight, with emphasis on adding bugfixes, Russian and small finetuning.

(As a side note, I'd never have thought that those three courses of Russian I took would come in handy at a time like this! Knowing the cyrillic letters is a big help here.)

[Hempuli‽]

DERRP.

I just found out that MMF 2 doesn't support cyrillic letters by default! You need to buy unicode letters as an add-on that costs a whopping 50 bucks. So yeah, that means that any non-stationary text (class descriptions, chat text, player nicknames) can't be turned to Russian. I'm really sorry about this but it's kinda unrelated to me at the moment. I'll see if I'll buy the unicode add-on.

Basically this means that getting Russian into the game costs 50 $.
At the moment I lack the money, but later on I'll be able to make it.
If someone wants to support the addition, feel free to donate at www.hempuli.com! Blame Clickteam for this.

I made a dutch translation of the text:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mmv0f90i39caaiv/Dutch%20Text%20of%20Masjin.txt

(Note, the original english text isn't shown anymore... if you want to I can change that back.)

A few notes:


-It could be that on some points the text is too long.
-I did not translate the word Cybermason. I don't know of any dutch word for it, and I think Cybermason itself simply sounds great.
-I hope I did not make any major mistakes about the meaning of the text. i.e, disconnecting from a game and disconnecting from the internet have two different words. However, it was hard to know wich meant wich.
-You missed 'Ninja' in the wordslist, altough that would be Ninja in Dutch too .

Hempuli: Would it be okay if I try to make some interesting music for Masjin?

[Hempuli‽]

1.74 is here. Updates:

• Bugfixes galore
• I tried to do the fixes to the lobby that Qqwy suggested, but they do not seem to work! Harrumph
• Two new research subjects, 'building' and 'yield'!
• You can no longer take the flag to the spawn point

VERSION 1.74b GET!

As I said, there's no language selection right now because of that freaking stupid 'add-on' thing. Basically I need 50 bucks to implement it! If you want to help, check the paypal button at the bottom of www.hempuli.com!

EMERGENCY UPDATE:
Whoops, broke a lot of stuff. Sorry! Fixed them now.

[ƒƒƒ]

This was the bug I was having, Hempuli:
I couldn't leave red spawn. It was very odd.

[Hempuli‽]

I think I know what causes that. And for curiosity, here's the changelog related to you for that round:

ƒƒƒ joined the game!
ƒƒƒ left the game!
ƒƒƒ joined the game!
ƒƒƒ has chosen the blue team!
ƒƒƒ has been assigned to the red team!
ƒƒƒ has to select his/her team!
ƒƒƒ has to select his/her team!
ƒƒƒ has to select his/her team!

Read from top to bottom. Kinda curious. And it newer showed answers to those three 'ƒƒƒ has to select his/her team!' -messages!

[ƒƒƒ]

I've reversed my opinion on turrets, they are a bit very game-breaking in CTF.

Do rockets do bonus damage to turrets? They should. I think that would be a very elegant solution to the turret problem. They'd still be good, but it would help stop turret clumping, and would give rockets more of a use. As it is, there's almost no reason to get a rocket instead of one of the various types of bombs.

Urist McDorf, thank.
This is a rough translation to clog the line. Edit a file before the release of course you need. In addition cybermason seems wonderful name)

Hempuli‽
I hope the problem will be solved. While perhaps realizing Russian site with a manual on Maszhin)

[Hempuli‽]

ƒƒƒ, good point since the missiles already do extra damage to vehicles. Added!

[Hempuli‽]

I've had a really busy day today, so no update! Sorry guys. The next update will feature another new gamemode, the one I originally planned for the game: 'hold the oddball'!
It has been already suggested by others in this very thread, but the idea is basically holding a specific item for a set time, kinda like a mix of CTF and Control point with only one flag.

I only saw one bug today :

While being a Red Ninja (both Cloaks active) and having a Spy ID, I suddently got the Red Flag. Maybe the engine wrongly assumed that I was the blue player who just had the flag... I don't know. I do know however that I couldn't bring the flag back to our place, and I couldn't score a point for blue. When I was killed, the blue people were unable to reclaim their flag. Strange...

And also, no problem with not having an update this day. I mean, the amount of about six updates a week is astonishing. We can see that you really care for this project, and that's great  ! Thanks, Hempuli.

If something like that happens, ask the host to press F1! In fact I'd be happy to see if the emergency button works at all
Thanks for the compliments!

F1 only works for the host? Okay .


Another small problem we just found out. There was this guy (named drumms, not that it matters). He was claiming to have huge lag, but he moved EXTREMELY fast in Masjin, and he shot EXTREMELY fast as well. He was some kind of superperson, being everywhere at once and killing everybody and then disappearing again. I don't know what was happening, if he really had lag, if he was using some kind of autoclick software or that something else was happening.


Oh, and another tiny bug: When pressing down and then Z to put an item down where you are standing, when the room you are standing is only 1 space high, the item will swoop up trough the ceiling until the next open place.

 .


Have a nice evening. I will be gone the next couple of days, at family for easter. So... enjoy my absence or something?  . I'm eager to find out how Masjin is after these few days    !
