Hey guys, I was planning to do an automatic Arty calculator, the whole idea is that the user would have a hot key to press when he is spotting his own atry, and another when he spots the target
and the tool will print out in the screen the directions for the shot
i kinow a lot of people use online calculators for that
I was just planning to speed the process up by using some OCR into the screen to extract that information straigh from the game
do you guys know if this is against TOS?
I am thinking of designing it this way because I am considering that hooking into the unreal engine and extracting those from memory would absolutely be a no-go (unlees omeoen tells me i can do it this way)
coral sundial
good question. directly modyfing the game files or accesing memory is against TOS as far as I am aware
if you construct it like an overlay, like discord or overwolf. all is fair
remember youre also limited to what VAC allows. ontop of anything the devs have constructed to detect cheating
drifting hedge
What if I build it on overwolve? They have an overlay SDK
but if i am not mistaken most overlays are based on DirectX Hooking
I just don't wanna get banned for writting a silly arty spotting tool
Theyw ay i see this tool working is:
You point your binoculars at your atry, press a hotkey, point it at target, press another hotkey.. overlay shows you the correct distand anz azim for the arty to shoot at

foxhole map on an LED matrix? interesting

ive had this exact idea
coral sundial
I dont know how you would do this. have each location the war API gives be an LED?
and then make an IRL map and solder on LEDs for each location
pure sierra
ive thought of different options that being one. put integrated wifi, so you plug it into power and put on the mantle, would it sell ?
coral sundial
I mean, could even put in an LCD display for more stats
pure sierra
yeah that is the other option, but then you might as well just have a cheap tablet on the wall with an app. it certainly could display more data and be change over time if needed, but im not sure it would have the same appeal/aesthetics
coral sundial
If you had acces to a lasercutter or machining table. you could make a real good vintage looking wall map

you can order that kind of thing fab online

stiff hull
Haha I don't want it to be useful. I want it to look cool 😃
pure sierra
it would be balance between pixel density for detail and size

you could show towns with a slightly different color pixel
pure sierra
led per town ? or 1 led colored depending on all town in sector ?
long raft
yea 1 led per town i assume, theyre far enough apart

what about an oled screeN?

its not going to sell if you can do the same with a cheaper phone and app
plus oled are fairly expensive in anyy decent size afaik
coral sundial
I think that really depends on who you want it to use. is it an art piece? some people would pay more for it just because its that.
pure sierra
i agree but you wont get the same art appeal with just a display

dude is stopping development
quaint summit
so are the devs trying to make it so they can put everyone on the same shard?
also I think they should sort the stuff in the bases by guns/ammo type
also I'm curious why everyone starts with a hammer and not a shovel
coral sundial
they technically cant put everyone on the same shard with the current engine. lots of bottlenecks with UE that they cant solve
quaint summit
huh
I ran into another game that might've been having UE networking problems
serious bummer if that's the case
coral sundial
what they have done even with the engine limitations is quite impressive. no bummers here
quaint summit
It would be nice to have everyone on the same server
but I guess I meant that it's a bummer that UE has that limitation
I'd be interested in knowing what the actual problem is
uh, I built a chat server/application for a class once
long raft
O(n^2) is the problem
quaint summit
is it?
I mean I'm interested in big O networking problems as much as the next fella
I guess I want to talk to the devs
long raft
well theyre working on proprietary network stuff, i doubt theyll discuss it in any detail but id sure love to hear more about it too
coral sundial
I dont know exactly who shared it in the R^2 discord. but it had something to do with the amount of information that needs to be shared grows literally expentionally with how many players are online. I think as in, 2 people need each others info. 3 people need that as well. and 1000 people need to share info for each and every player online.
and the solution in UE is shards and small bubbles of players. but more people in one location means alot of information to share. lots of players spread out, dont require that.
quaint summit
I'm not sure but it feels like, from a pure networking standpoint, that problem should be solvable
coral sundial
Every problem has a solution, in this case, the devs choose to develop a whole new engine around the networking issues
quaint summit
well I mean, having a lot of people in an n^2 problem doesn't have a solution
coral sundial
every. problem. has. a. solution.

all I know is, they developed a whole new engine with networking in mind, so they can cram in even more people on the same shard in their next game

the factorio devs did some dev blogs about exactly that problem. they solved it by kind of using a hybrid server/p2p architecture. i remember playing with 500 people on a single server and there were no lags or hiccups at all. no idea though if this is relatabale to foxhole.
mossy pelican
i think its quite different
factorio is a 2d or 2.5d at most, there is a lot less calculations for physics and such that may stress the servers. i'd say its not only a hard-to-break networking limit but also a performance one
i think if it was as easy as copy pasting some code from an RTS like zero-k, total war or supreme commander that have thousands of units in the map we woulnd't have any problem
but the limits are a more per-case issue. 10 thousand particles are not the same as 10 thousand players with 3d models and different speed connections, movements, etc
serene vortex
Wait, foxhole is getting an engine change at some point?
lunar cobalt
Not likely
livid osprey
Not based on anything said here. The big O problem has nothing to do with the engine
lunar cobalt
Factorio handles it by doing most of the calculations on each player's computer, and then synchronizes them with each other. That's why you get kicked if you desync, and why when you're catching up with the map it's you downloading and starting to run the map.
For a competitive multiplayer game, giving players authority over calculations is a bad idea
livid osprey
And if you wanted to tackle it it still wouldn't require a different engine. You could just roll your own networking layer in UE
lunar cobalt
Foxhole is currently using a completely custom networking layer

I kinda thought so. UEs built in UDP starts hemorrhaging at like...20 concurrent

from the previous versions i mean, the game's been in development for 5.5 years
livid osprey
Yeah, from older versions I mean. A full engine upgrade is rare.
Every minor version step of UE deprecates and replaces stuff that a game may or may not be using, and usually requires at the very least a rewrite of those components, sometimes a completely new approach. So if you start on, say, 4.24, you almost never want to go to say, 4.26, unless the features you gain are 100% required and save you more time than you will lose doing the update.
lunar cobalt
They jumped to 4.24 from... something
livid osprey
Or it's required because you ran into some breaking bug in the older engine version that you can't or don't want to pull to your working version of the engine
lunar cobalt
They're done a couple engine upgrades from my remembering
livid osprey
If they are running stock UE4 it's easier....but I kinda doubt it

so would you say that the bottleneck in terms of supporting that many players in one "level" within UE4 is mostly computational rather than being network related?
i.e, having too many actors, introduces too many physics/position calculations and too much replication for a server to handle well due to the fact ue4's native networking is not optimised for that many actors
in terms of networking, i imagine it's not so much a bandwidth issue as much as it is a rollback/lockstep issue (which really comes down to the netcode)
lunar cobalt
in terms of networking, i imagine it's not so much a bandwidth issue as much as ...
they don't use UE4's native networking
livid depot
ah okay, did they at any point?
lunar cobalt
Unknown but I doubt it
UE4's networking starts to crap out waaay before you get even close to what the playercounts were even way back in 2016
livid depot
do you have any idea why that is exactly? obviously netcode is made up of many components, i am just curious as to what exactly it is about UE's networking the causes these issues.
like, is it due to the physics calculations being too slow, is it due to the replication functions, is it due to the actual http transport protocol they use?
i'm sure it's a mix
but i'm interested to know what the major problem area is
lunar cobalt
Now I don't code, but from what I've heard it tends to be when there's a lot of actors in an area running physics calculations
And when those actors have to tell each other position / other data
long raft
i assume the server side software is sophisticated enough to be calculating the physics on a GPU
youd think it would be enough to handle all the physics, but if not its easy to go broad with the parallelism
livid depot
i assume the server side software is sophisticated enough to be calculating the ...
i've honestly never heard of that happening
not to say it doesn't
coral sundial
so would you say that the bottleneck in terms of supporting that many players in...
this is network related. how do you tell hundreds of actors their own position, and the position of the hundreds of players around them. and do the same for each player inbetween each other. and thats just position data
livid depot
if your code is trying to replicate the positions of hundreds of actors to hundreds of players, is the bottleneck in the cpu's ability to process the calculations in each tick, or in the server's ability to actually broadcast this data at the required speed (in terms of bandwidth)?
obviously server-client latency is an uncontrollable variable
do you think the server is likely in a scenario where it is saying "i have all these calculations, for all these players, but i just can't send them out fast enough before i receive the next set of inputs from clients"
or is more like "hold on a second, i cannot run these calculations fast enough to be able to broadcast them in time for the next set of inputs from clients"

well it cant be bandwidth, it has to be CPU/GPU throttled

care to share progress reports here for our interest ?
There is a running progress report called the devlog in our server, link to the server can be found in the #community-resources chat:
#community-resources message
General progress report, slow progress but at this point we are still aiming for our initial close alpha release date of Jan 2022
Menu's Loading Screens etc. are complete.
Map in progress, (mostly made but all the technical stuff is being worked on, weather, terrain, buildings).
Closed Alpha version will consist of 2 nations, Colonial and Warden of which the focus trees are planned and are being inputted.
Warden Tech Tree is in design phase.
Other parts of the nations still to begin progress.
Events Decisions etc. still to being progress.
Clan data gathering is continueing for the Beta versions, contact KBear44#4981 if you wish to have your clan in the mod.

I'll update it around the time when dev branch is released so there's time for all the WarAPI users to update their stuff in preparation for the update
zealous sonnet
And yeah there's always a dev branch version as far as I know since it's listed in the documentation
It should be updated sometime tomorrow
runic wadi
Hi ! Is there a way from the API to know the positioning of regions on the global map ?
runic wadi
:/ They could add that to /static
pure sierra
they could
zealous sonnet
If anything, it'd just be some data that exists in the github repository as transmitting something that will never change is inefficient
It'd certainly make for a great suggestion in https://github.com/clapfoot/warapi/issues 🙂

"Total Enlistments" is referring to current server pop right?
pure sierra
@round flaxno, just the number of players that have played at least once in that map
not unique across maps
@barren quarry what do you mean ?
round flax
So is there any way to tell how many players are in a hex?
pure sierra
its not in the api 😦
pure sierra
@barren quarry i know what you mean now. i dont use that id, just assigning my own based on mapname but i still have gaps between groups, it does not affect me
so did we find out if there should be victory towns in the new map ?
i compared in game and it is so
pure sierra
@safe mist you there ?
you have mistake in your world time location data
width and height comment are wrong way around at start of file

has anyone else figured out a scale value if you wanted to convert old coordinates to new ones? assuming old range was 0-256 and new range is also 0-256 but now its vertical?
damned leaflet.
pure sierra
i modding mine mine
long raft
its hard because of stupid leaflet default range
long raft
i mean, perhaps a lot of this could be avoided by modifying the map to maintain the aspect ratio of the old one with blank space
then it would still meet hte same 0-256 range
which is entirely based on the tile size
pure sierra
like i said im not working on leaflet right now so cant say
long raft
ok so the scale i calculated is 11 / [7 * sqrt(3)] can anyone confirm?
pure sierra
no comment
long raft
how nice would that be to just scale the coords
pure sierra
just checking it with in game, it seems i got luck and the voronoi is correct, just my y is off
safe mist
How do you cut out the hexagons? 😮
pure sierra
I'm guessing you mean the voronoi
safe mist
I'm guessing you mean the voronoi
yes
pure sierra
It's related to the major map maker field in static
That point is used with the map edge points to calculate voronoi regions
safe mist
How do you calculate voronoi?
pure sierra
Look it up or and find a library that does it
I'm about to go to bed sorry. I do mine with a python lib

im kind of enjoying reading the new place names

i feel like theyre interesting ... but also a good number of them are the titles of death metal songs
not like "would be good" titles, but actual titles
and the new rocks on new maps look good

@twilit wave remember matt saying no new map[s]? 💢
long raft
he could argue something like "it was always planned so its not new"
barren quarry
Employees are under nda
long raft
but now we know he will lie to our direct questions without hesitation
twilit wave
yes derp I remember
I told you this at the time too
and I was bad guy
I assume "always planned" was the explanation inteded
long raft
why bother guessing if you can never be right. why drop hints if they come with denials too
i suppose we knew anyway from the new roads they added, and we knew where they would be too
twilit wave
It wasn't very subtle
though that makes the "no new maps" thing all the more strange
long raft
the lookout, i assume, will still be a good storm cannon location
have you played devbranch yet? did they remove the rocks blocking beaches?

yes

oh theres a path to walk up? hmm
twilit wave
this is a god-damn trap 😄

well in fairness, this doesn't have any base

I really wonder if this place spawns border bases
barren quarry
oh how i wish we still had satellite maps
ask and you shall receive
barren quarry
they updated the files for the first time since november
twilit wave
I will note that the new maps are more consistent with some of the new topography
for instance, there are trees in the woods map
and you can actually roughly see where they are
long raft
well ...those were nice, but i mean the ones you took from the sky were awesome
barren quarry
ah
long raft
favorite map ever.
barren quarry
those werent me
long raft
oh mulon?
barren quarry
yeah
barren quarry
i dont have enough patience for such hopeless tasks that get outdated after 2 months
twilit wave
@long raft you see the brown specks around cursed court and such? those are forested areas
compare and contrast with, uh
long raft
but yea even the satellite maps from assets would be great, although i expect they will disappear when live is released
twilit wave
any other tree map
long raft
lol i cant really tell, silenus
twilit wave
You can see them when you zoom in anyway
this is too zoomed out
the point being the map acknowledges they're there at all
can you find the trees in mooring?

Foxhole Coders! I am again making an appeal for your assistance. For anyone that does not know some of us are making a Foxhole mod for Heart Of Iron: IV (Foxhole Conquest: Rise Of The Clans) I need more programmers and even if you only have a little experience or understanding we would gladly accept you onto the team. If you are willing to put in the time and help out it can be a great way to learn and try something a bit different. Alternatively if you already know what you are doing then I need you too as we have lots of complex tasks that need completing too and I just don't have enough programmers for the job right now. Any assistance would be appreciated. DM me to join. Thanks.
coral sundial
maybe you should mention something in specific that you guys are working on. I am not very tempted in helping
yet

im curious why a game mod needs programmers?
is it like a script language?
so there are new town hall icons or something? i didnt get to watch the end of the devstream
pure sierra
not mentioned in dev stream (the icen) but yes, i asked for it and phil put it in github
pure sierra
you would have to ? how do you know what type it is ?
long raft
oh i thought there was an id field
pure sierra
just found out something cool, you can drag and drop dom elements in the web development toolbar
atleast in FF
lunar cobalt
0 star = T1, 2 star = T2, 3 star = T3
No differentiation between base type (City Center, Post Office, School)
pure sierra
just different icontype id and icon
long raft
huh?
have they not applied it yet? because i still see old town hall icons in my beta code
like the towns show up
pure sierra
tey applied it
long raft
im seeing, so do i just need to swap my icons and im guchi?
or am i missing some towns?
pure sierra
yeah no towns ?
long raft
ah i see im missing jade cove
ok so ... they didnt replace town halls, they replaced some, but this is an additional type
pure sierra
no they replaced them all
pure sierra
long raft
got it. thanks.

in the warapi which corner is 0,0
i think they should mention it in the readme

function convertPixelToLeaflet(xcoord, ycoord){
//bounds: [[0,0], [-256,256]],
var leafletUnitsPerPixel = 256 / Math.max(pixelWorldWidth, pixelWorldHeight);
var pixelOffset = Math.abs(pixelWorldWidth-pixelWorldHeight)/2;
//offset to account for non square world tileset
if(pixelWorldWidth > pixelWorldHeight)ycoord += pixelOffset;
else xcoord += pixelOffset;
var xcoord = xcoord * leafletUnitsPerPixel;
var ycoord = ycoord * leafletUnitsPerPixel * -1;
//convert to leaflet coords

Do I need this?
pure sierra
up to you, not sure if you got past your leaflet problems, as im working on that today
bronze rain
lol
pure sierra
so im going mad about my text label alignment only to realise they are off in game too in areas
signal nexus
long raft
can confirm magic ratio to rescale things is 7/(sqrt(3) * 11)
yea labels look like they moved
theyre centered on the regions they represent now i think
pure sierra
so 0.3674
long raft
hmm no that doesnt sound right
maybe it was 11/(7*sqrt(3))
whatever i said the other day, i used that radio to reduce my roads to fit where they used to
pure sierra
are we talking width or height
long raft
both
so if you had old coordinates and multiply both of them by that (assuming theyre centered at 0,0 you wont need to translate) it will scale them to the new aspect ratio for the tiles
maybe only relevant to me...
seems like you all got your new points figured out already
but i have a ton of coords that dont come from the API
god i cannot remember how i made the hexes! where did these come from 
@barren quarry is there a new background image in the assets?

I heckin love Netlify. They have a generous free tier and really good support for GitHub CI/CD so I make sure to use it for all my projects lol. I'll probably host the API as a subdomain for FoxholeLogi, but I need to implement rate limiting and keys before then for security.

Matt- I’m doing a little mapping project and noticed this heightmap you sent a while ago. Quality doesn’t bug me, it’s actually perfect for my purposes- Is there any chance you could tell me where to/if i can get more of these, or more up-to-date ones? I’ve been poking around using UEviewer and haven’t had any luck, but I’m basically stumbling in the dark haha. Thanks.

because if you do it by hand it's gonna take quite some time 😄
mossy pelican
are you trying to make a heightmap
No it is not a heightmap
more like a map editor
the color of each pixel is translated into an entity or tile
be it grass, a mountain, a soldier or the starting position of the player. everything is done with a different RGB code
that way anyone with paint installed or any other image editor can make a map for my game without the need for fancy programs or complex documentation
also the image before i start editing it in the video was generated by the game itself with perlin noise

long raft
now that unprocessed maps are available (for how long?) i wonder if we will see a return of skaj's map mod
pure sierra
Apps string together

what did you write your map stitcher in?
pure sierra
Php
safe mist
what did you write your map stitcher in?
Leaflet
long raft
so hayden stitched the most recent map?
safe mist
I generated the new map for update my tool on Leaflet
long raft
from the region images to the full map all in leaflet?
long raft
so it uses tiles of the full map, right?
safe mist
I still have small problems with the hexagons xD
safe mist
so it uses tiles of the full map, right?
Yes
long raft
and you make that full map in leaflet?
safe mist
and you make that full map in leaflet?
hexagons only ?
long raft
yea the ones provided by the devs
pure sierra
@long raft i tile my own world map now via php and the dev git images
