Demolition Derby (custom gamemode)

[umbral nexus]

Demolition Derby is a custom gamemode mod featuring round-based, free-for-all, last-man-standing gameplay.
Players start around an arena and fight to the death. Roll an enemy over, drown them, crush them against a wall, you name it!

DISCLAIMER: Generally below 100 ping is recommended to have a bug-free experience. To have the most fun, I would recommend block-banning weapons and sticking to only using ground vehicles.

Gameplay

In-between rounds there is a 45 second period where everybody can freely build or edit their vehicles.
Players cannot repair their vehicle or build mid-round, because this is a gamemode about destroying your opponents.
If a player stays still for 10 seconds, they are automatically eliminated.
The last player remaining, wins!

It currently supports two maps:

• Dethrone Island
• Treasure Island

[jolly ferry]

I had this weird problem yesterday in which i couldn't build during the allocated time

[umbral nexus]

rejoin

i need to add that as well

[jolly ferry]

Thats what i was saying

[umbral nexus]

argh

[umbral nexus]

chat what
if you aren't aware, the green means it isnt actually supported

[jolly ferry]

Sure, but what does the rest of the code do?

[umbral nexus]

if it's green then it means that it refuses to do anything (because there's no spawn points it can use)

notice how only treasure Island and Dethrone Island have color and they're the only supported maps atm

[jolly ferry]

Ohhh

• Added warning when freebuild period is going to end soon

User interface

• Improved spawn-bug error UI

Bug fixes

• Fixed match winner not displaying on match end UI

[umbral nexus]

There's also now screenshots on the Steam workshop page

[open gazelle]

the coughing baby vs coughing baby moment making it in is awesome

[midnight vessel]

very cool (even just the idea), I approve 👍

[umbral nexus]

600 ping

Known issue; "You're spectating" spawns multiple times occasionally

oh i know why

its bc of spawnbug
edit: it isnt

[umbral nexus]

this is caused by being considered in a seat as a spectator before the game can delete your build

[umbral nexus]

new screenshots w/ post processing

@zealous plover rate

[zealous plover]

idk i dont really see a difference

[umbral nexus]

oh these look SO much better on steam

steam does weird compression and it makes it look quite washed out

[zealous plover]

discord

[umbral nexus]

this one i didnt even pick for steam btw

i fucking hate discord added a fade-in to switching between images

[zealous plover]

u said it looks better for steam and then said that steam does somethin bad to it

[umbral nexus]

i cant compare anything on discord now

[umbral nexus]

yeah and so your response is "discord"? what is that supposed to mean

that isnt a question and its hardly a statement

[zealous plover]

i thpugh u meant that discord does the weird compression cuz it does

[umbral nexus]

the first word of that message is literally "steam"

[zealous plover]

yes but sometimes people will type the wrong thing, just had to reassure

[umbral nexus]

ok that one defo works

@zealous plover this ones really obviou

and not on discord i guess

[zealous plover]

yeah i dont think my eyes can pick up whats going on

[umbral nexus]

ok i made a comparison in gimp, left is raw

ahh yeah there, discord shows the split now

[zealous plover]

I SEE IT NOW

yeah the right is more crisp

[umbral nexus]

let me do another one, this one i might have overdone tbh

left is raw
@zealous plover

[zealous plover]

i can def see it now

[umbral nexus]

actually let me move where i do the split so its easier to see the difference on the explosion

@zealous plover split is over the explosion now

for shits and giggles here it is slightly left of the center of the bridge

[zealous plover]

ill give 8/10 on rating

[umbral nexus]

what would make it 10/10, this?

[zealous plover]

give it to an artist and tell them to make the non raw side as good as possible

[umbral nexus]

you think i have access to that
-# although ngl having a bunch of screenshots in the same art style as the old TM concept art would be FUCKING SICK

[umbral nexus]

Update 2

User interface

• Replaced message for spawning a vehicle while spectating with a sound

Bug fixes

• Potential fix for spectators usually being unable to fly
• New round timer no longer skips forward when a player joins
• Potential fix for players rarely being able to respawn after dying

Technical

• Demolition Derby now runs at 30 FPS rather than 60 FPS. This shouldn't affect gameplay, but will help lower end hardware run smoother

[umbral nexus]

in 6 days this is not too bad

[umbral nexus]

Update 2.1

User interface

• Match end message now specifies when it was a draw
• Adjusted all timers' rounding

Bug fixes

• Potential fix for rare instant elimination on round start

Technical

• Pressing CTRL+O as the host now toggles debug logging. If you believe you have found a bug, please try to reproduce the bug and send me the logs in the official Trailmakers Discord server (You're already here!)

[umbral nexus]

🎉

[jolly ferry]

Best update so far

[blissful iron]

Thank goodness dude

I was thinking it was gonna be unplayable

[normal flume]

I have heard that this mod is now delisted from steam...

[vivid silo]

lol

[faint arch]

seems like evrything related to trailmakers he has uploaded was removed

[vivid silo]

He probaply removed it all himself after going crashout

[faint arch]

yeah, which is unfortunate because he made some cool mods

[fierce needle]

Oh! What happened?

[faint arch]

Rainless got banned and then decided to stop playing trailmakers and removed all of his workshop uploads related to trailmakers
