cant select pit of azar

[boreal sorrel]

when I go to select the map pit of azar simply nothing happens every other map I've tried works just fine I've had no other problems with this game before this

Pit of Azar had some issues and it was decided that it needs more development before being enabled for play again.

We should probably get it removed from the list completely.

[boreal sorrel]

ok thank you

Why selecting map doesn't do anything? How is it controlled?

If map is still a n chobby, it should be possible to play it

[bleak flax]

I think we set the map to In Pool= false in rowy without really knowing what that does.

Turns out it makes the map unselectable in chobby.

[weak thistle]

Wtf, ok, i will take all look...

[bleak flax]

What is it meant to do?

[weak thistle]

I tried to figure this out a while back and didn't got a good answers tbh, so I didn't touch it, but it was mainly about making it available to play online, I don't know why we would want to have anything like that.

[bleak flax]

Yeah I thought it was something like that. So when Ambu wanted to "pull his map out of play" for a while to improve on it it seemed like a thing to use.

Hmm, as far as I recall, the IsInPool variable states that the map will not be displayed on the multiplayer lobby map selector, but will still be displayed on the skirmish map selector

Is this not the desired behaviour?

[rancid musk]

Btw have had no other problems is quite the compliment ❤️

[weak thistle]

I think based on this bug it doesn't work like that

For some reason, also, we can change the name from "inPool" to something more descriptive..

[rancid musk]

What name do you have in mind?

[boreal sorrel]

Since someone brought it up what does chobby mean?

[wispy hemlock]

chobby is the current lobby you see when you launch multiplayer #🏚️｜chobby

it will be replaced at some point by #🏛️｜new-client

[boreal sorrel]

those links just say no access for me so il just take your word on it lol

Grab a Development role from id:customize to see the rest of the channels.

Yeah, I pulled it because it had too many issues, but it appears to not quite work as expected. It still shows up in the list, but is unselectable, and it appears to still be possible for people to play it online if they know how. I'm not sure exactly what people are doing to still play it, but replays of it are showing up.

It's not actually bad, in my opinion, that people can still play it, but we should probably resolve it showing up in the list but being unselectable.

Switch name to "Availability" or "Available In" and type to multiselect with

• "skirmish"
• "multiplayer"
• "server"

With a check that if multiplayer is set, server also must be set. (Only server set E.g allows to play map on server without making it visible to players yet).

In the same way the "certified" bool, could be changed to single select "normal/certified", "classic" and "testing" (a new one we can introduce e.g)

Something like that

The ability to preload startboxes before making the map fully public is also something I would like, assuming that's easier to accomplish than making startboxes sync faster.

[weak thistle]

Yeah, it could be done with the server option I mentioned above (set first to server only, then switch to public)

I'm not sure when I will get to making this startboxes sync quicker

[junior stag]

Yeah, as long as I have some workaround like the above, I’ll be happy.
