[Server] Capture the Flag Server

[Blockhead]

But what's going on with this? I tried Minetest and multicraft, but I still can't join.

Type your username, type a password, then click/tap register. The server requires a password so that people can't just log in and steal your account.

OK thx

[Mr. Sun]

Can you use team's color to color a damage cobble? This will help us know which team placed this damage cobble, and we can chose break it or walk on another road.

I was thinking that Minetest CTF could include more crafting recipes. So one could create a stylish field hospital with medics including apples in a chest (which is uncraftable) and a bed (which is also uncraftable) for decoration. Various fun builds could be built with team doors and chests, like sniper towers...

CTF has a minimalist theme to it that I try to respect during development, so minor details like that aren't likely to be added anytime soon, unfortunately

This is intentional, and that change has been suggested before, but I think the conclusion was most players want it to stay the way it is

[Mr. Sun]

I've create a Chinese ctf server forum topic. I hope more player can know ctf.

[Mr. Sun]

I hope Lone_Wolf can join because we need Admin.

[Mr. Sun]

Can you add steel trap-door? We need to craft it because we need to protect some tunnel.

[Mr. Sun]

Scout's gun was not very sensitive. It's not good to use mouse to control. May be you can add up, down, left, right to control Scout's gun.

[Lord_Narkissos]

Can you add magazine guns? We only have single-shot rife, they can't cover bearer/teammate.

The sub-machine gun fits that role.

Submachine guns also run out of ammo the fastest... That is why I do not use them. Also, can you add more guns?

[Lord_Narkissos]

Can you add skins to CTF? We all look the same....

/I think he means MESE tools/

Mese tools are added by default. I think bronze tools should be added....

New Update

• Fixed bug where treasure chests wouldn't open
• Fixed water not flowing in after barrier removal - Emojigit
• Make donate command params interchangeable - Brain_Juice
• Players now hold a flag in their left hand after taking one
• Reworked the hpbar code to allow for an icon next to it
• Your PvP status in Elysium is now displayed via an icon next to your hpbar
• Added ranking leagues. Before the upcoming reset players will have a league icon based on what their league will be after the reset.

Introducing Leagues

You can ask questions or make suggestions by DMing me on the forums

After rankings are reset players will be assigned to a 'league' based on their ranking placement pre-reset.
This currently only has cosmetic value, and takes the form of an icon next to their healthbar ingame (See image below)


The icons are still WIP, and what you see in the image isn't final. You can change them with texturepacks like all other CTF textures.

The icons will change to match your league placement for the mode that's currently being played.

There are currently 7 leagues implemented. More can be added as the playerbase grows.
League placements are per-mode.

• Diamond League: Top 20
• Mese League: Top 50
• Gold League: Top 250
• Bronze League: Top 500
• Steel League: Top 1000
• Stone League: Top 2500
• Wood League: Top 5000

I've tried to set the leagues up so that most players should place in a league from the upcoming reset if they've spent roughly a week playing casually.
Note that new usernames/alt/accounts made after the reset won't have any league, as leagues are given based on your username's placement before a ranking reset.
Players without a league will have no icon next to their healthbar.
Changing the league icons to incorporate a player's projected/current ranking league is a possibility in the future, but only a few months after the reset, after rankings have had time to settle down.

Leagues also come with two commands:

• /league: See the past league/ranking placements of yourself or another player
• /leagues: Shows a list of leagues and the placement needed to get in each of them. (A copy of the list I gave earlier in this post)

You can ask questions or make suggestions by DMing me on the forums

Hiding the league icons
You can hide league icons with the texturepack attached to this post. If you already use a texturepack just copy the contents of this one into it. hpbars will look offset without the icons, but I'm hoping to fix that at some point

Uh, if that is the case, then why am I in 147th place, and in the steel league? In that case, I should be in the gold league, right?

I think Sun is right. I do not know who placed what cobble, and I mine (or shoot) it, thinking that it is my team's cobble, but I end up taking damage.....

Skins are not planned, as it's hard to make them not interfere with class skins/team colors. I added the 'Customize' tab as an alternative though.

Leagues are based on your rankings before a ranking reset. Your current ranking has no effect on them

The Christmas Event is here!

• Look for and dig the blue presents found in the snow at the start of most maps
• Blue presents drop cookies, which when eaten will give event points
• Get 50 event points to get the christmas hat

The event ends after Christmas Day

Download CTF from this link, the github download only works for advanced users https://content.minetest.net/packages/r ... retheflag/

Can you add a female skin to CTF? We all look the same... Also, can you add a crown cosmetic for the player in first place?

[Mr. Sun]

I think ELYSIUM should have more building. Example, we can chose map and mode. This will make more players capture the flag and enter ELYSIUM because can train in every map is a great temptation!

Well, can you make it so that there is an effect on them?

Adding female skins is a can of worms I don't want to touch. MTG's Sam skin (used in CTF) was designed to be unisex

I plan to add in crown cosmetics as a reward for CTF tournaments. Which may happen next year if I get the time to run them

Tournaments? There will be tournaments in CTF?
