MagicTW 1.6

Hey !
As I promised, the version 1.6 is here, though I intended to release it sooner. ^^

There is only one new feature : colors in the names.

To add some color to your name, just add :

\0 for WHITE
\1 for BLACK
\2 for RED
\3 for BLUE
\4 for GREEN
\5 for YELLOW
\6 for PURPLE
\7 for BROWN
\8 for ORANGE
\9 for PINK
For example, if I want to display "Nekko" in blue, I will set my name to : \3Nekko. The result will be : Nekko.

You can put several colors in your name :
\1Black\0&White => Black&White
\3FR\0EN\2CH => FRENCH
\1DE\2UT\5SCH => DEUTSCH

The only limit is the max length of the name : 15 characters.

The color display will be activated by default. You can enable/disable it with the command MagicTW_display_name_color.

I worked hard to display the colors in different places in the game (nameplates , score board, kill messages, chat, server browser), but there are still some places where the colors won't be displayed (console, system messages in chat, ...). So don't be alarmed if you find your name with "\something".

I want you to bring happiness in the game ;-)
Have fun !

Next feature to come ...

I'm working on v1.6, it should be released before the end of the week. I think I'll add only one new feature : colors in the names !

Here's a picture to show you :)

If you have ideas for this feature, you can leave messages in the comments =)
See you soon !

I'd be glad to add translations for this video, but I don't speak other languages well enough, so, please give me yours =)

MagicTW 1.5

Hey ! Long time no see ! :)

MagicTW v1.5 : I improved the auto_spin feature and I added 3 new commands, all working around the same feature : input recording. Furthermore, the client now remembers if you were using MagicTW_auto_spin and/or MagicTW_clone_skin_hammer when you last quit the game. For the auto_spin feature, it also remembers the speed and direction.

- You can now choose the speed and direction of the rotation, just add a number after the command MagicTW_auto_spin. The number (from -255 to 255) indicates the speed, it can be positive or negative.

Examples : MagicTW_auto_spin 0 => no spin
 MagicTW_auto_spin 1 => slow (clockwise)
 MagicTW_auto_spin -1 => slow (anticlockwise)

MagicTW_auto_spin 40 => fast (clockwise)

...

- You can now record input (from mouse and keyboard) with the 3 following commands :

MagicTW_record_input => Records the keyboard and mouse input

MagicTW_save_input => Save a recorded input in a file

MagicTW_load_input => Load a saved input

It means that if you record while jumping, moving, hooking and shooting, you can later replay the same moves. Because of server lagg, the display can be weird while playing a recorded input, but it can still be useful.

How to use it :

1) Open the console (F1) and write the command "MagicTW_record_input", press Enter, and GO, it's recording, you're losing time :)

For the time being, the record time is limited to 10 seconds (only). After 10 seconds, a message will be display in console to inform you that you reached the maximum size : MagicTW_record_input ⚡OFF⚡ , with a very cool debug message (that I forgot to remove xD) "taille max atteinte". Yes, it's french, it means "max size reached".

My bad :D

2) If you want to stop the record before the end of the 10 seconds, you can open the console and write again "MagicTW_record_input". The record will stop.

If you record something again, the first record will be lost. Yet, if you want to save it, you can use the MagicTW_save_input command :

MagicTW_save_input my_first_record.txt

3) You can load this input whenever you want with the command :

MagicTW_load_input my_first_record.txt

The MagicTW_load_input commands also allows you to read the input in loop : just add "1" (one) after the name of the file.

Example : 

MagicTW_load_input my_first_record.txt 1

The files will be written in the directory of the game. For 10 seconds, the size of the file is around 5-7kB.

It's quite hard to explain, but I'll try to make a video to show how it works. 

Keep playing the game, give me ideas for future features, and have fun ^_^

MagicTW 1.4

 Hey !

This is the new version of MagicTW, with new features and improvements :)

    ¤ auto-spin is finally fixed : it works well :D
Write MagicTW_auto_spin to try it.

    ¤ MagicTW_hook_on is back (I forgot it in the teeworlds0.6.1 update). With this command, you can hook a wall without pressing any button.

    ¤ the messages displayed in console are improved. When you clone the nearest player's emotes, his name is displayed in the console. So you can know who you are copying.

    ¤ This feature is new, I announced it in the post about MagicTW 1.3 : it's a special characters features.
It now works for linux and windows, and allows you to display characters such as ⁂☆☘☬☯☮☠☢☣☻☺♡♥♫♲♱♰♿⚕⚛⚡✂✆✈✎✵❤⟳➡⬅ in the game.

To use any of these character, you have 2 ways of doing it :

MagicTW_special_characters_chat or MagicTW_special_characters_console.
This command must be followed by the name of the special character you want to use.
It will add the chosen character in the input field (either chat or console, depending which command you use).

For example, if you want to display a heart in the chat, open the console in the game (F1) and write :
" MagicTW_special_characters_chat heart ". If you were writing something in the chat, the character "♥" will be added at the end of the line. If you were not writing anything, the chat will open and the character will appear.

Here's the list of characters available :

heart : ♥
round_heart : ❤
empty_heart : ♡
star : ☆
3_stars : ⁂
shakti : ☬
yin_yang : ☯
peace : ☮
skull : ☠
radioactive : ☢
biohazard : ☣
black_smile : ☻
white_smile : ☺
note : ♫
recycling : ♲
east_syriac_cross : ♱
west_syriac_cross : ♰
wheelchair : ♿
medicine : ⚕
atom : ⚛
high_voltage : ⚡
scissors : ✂
telephone : ✆
airplane : ✈
pencil : ✎

Also available : diamond, club, spade, and lots of arrows ( right_arrow, up_arrow, left_arrow, down_arrow, up_right_arrow, up_left_arrow, down_right_arrow, down_left_arrow ).

I hope you'll enjoy it.

Have fun ;)
