<p><b>New page</b></p><div>List of most urgent problems currently preventing players from playing evo.<br />
<br />
=Current=<br />
<br />
==engine detection==<br />
<br />
For <s>unknown reasons</s> http://code.google.com/p/springweblobby/wiki/EvoSteamBugs '''often does not work.'''<br />
<br />
"stops at 100%"<br />
<br />
"nothing happens"<br />
<br />
or errors like http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=64&p=556182#p556131<br />
<br />
=Addressed/Fixed=<br />
<br />
==Maps==<br />
<br />
===Solved===<br />
<br />
A limited maplist was introduced, unsynced players are auto-specced.<br />
<br />
The maps from maplist were added in the steam distribution in the operation dubbed "Preload", as well as the engine and pool/packages with the game.<br />
--<br />
<br />
Too much random map changes. Too much downloading, too much unsync = no games start.<br />
<br />
Some commonly chosen maps are unplayable (space maps etc)<br />
<br />
Solve: '''Maplist''' on ALL hosts.<br />
<br />
Best only put ONE map so that players do not have to download much and can just play.<br />
Map could be:<br />
http://springfiles.com/spring/spring-maps/eye-horus-v2<br />
<br />
Progress:<br />
unsynced players are specced and can not delay gamestart but does not seem to help so much<br />
<br />
==Singleplayer==<br />
<br />
===Solved===<br />
<br />
Preload.<br />
--<br />
<br />
Does not work with fresh install because there are no files.<br />
<br />
One must first join a MP to download engine,map,mod.<br />
<br />
Solve: '''Download files on login''' or something.<br />
<br />
==empty room, use !lock==<br />
<br />
===Solved===<br />
<br />
Springie seems to work correctly now.<br />
--<br />
<br />
The common solution to select an empty autohost and then lock the room does not work:<br />
<br />
Players need to be manually to use !lock command. The empty hosts are impossible to find because players randomly join&leave all the time. Even if you join an empty host, hardly does one have enough time to type !lock before another player joins.<br />
<br />
==Bots, AIs==<br />
<br />
===Solved===<br />
<br />
Bot filter specific to evo was created.<br />
--<br />
<br />
Needs '''filter''' for add-bot menu. Only evo-compatible bots must be listed.<br />
AAI is too often choosen because top of list but it does not work.<br />
<br />
Solve:<br />
If nessecarly hard-coded hack in lobby might be needed?<br />
(real solution like implenting validAI.lua probally no time)<br />
<br />
CarRepairer: Actually the REAL real solution is to remove AIs from the engine, which should have been done years ago like widgets. That would solve it for future versions only so a validAI list would be needed now of course.<br />
<br />
The evo-AIs reportedly "do nothing."<br /><br />
Under investigation at: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=556029#p556029 <br /><br />
Possible quick fix: play on metal maps (Trololo, Trench_Linked).<br /><br />
