Published January 26, 2012

Got basic accounts functionality working. Users now need to create an account ingame. Currently only kills and deaths are tracked but im going to be extending it alot.

Ive created a simple "World ranking" page where all players are listed with their kils/death ratio from top to bottem.

getting blood tactics server + java oracle bindings(ojdbc6) + oracle db + apache2 + php + php oracle bindings(oci8) installed and playing nicely together on a remote linux(centos5) box was quite a schlep for someone new to linux like me :D I spent way more time getting all these things configured and working than i spent writing code!

Looking nice so far :-) However, I noticed two bugs:

- When walking forward using "w" and looking straight ahead you walk in a straight line, as expected. When doing the same thing but walk in a 45 degree angle to the ceiling tiles and look straight up, you walk slightly diagonaly when pressing "w".

- I was unable to login with my newly created account. Are there any restrictions to user names or passwords? These should be clearly written.

Keep it up!

Thnx!

hmm. i saw the accounts you created o-san and O-san. It logs you in automaticaly the first time you create an account but i gues you got that far. Did it not let you back in a second time with the same account? There are character restrictions but it simply wont let you type in a restricted character in the first place.

Sigh. One problem with making a multiplayer FPS like this is that unless i stay logged into it al day long theres hardly ever 2 or more ppl online at the same time. Everyday I see a couple of people logging in at different times but never together :/ Of course its stil in its early stages so hopefully this problem recrifies itself over time.
