Test recording on Funny Tanks with 4 players. Average ping was 300ms and rollback frames at 10 to reduce frequent pauses.

• The rewrite is now complete, 99% of the previous features are now available with some improvements:
  • Players have coyote time and more responsive crouching.
  • Items can be touched while sprouting from an item block.
  • Added infinite lives to Kevin mode.
• Multiplayer kicks some more ass:
  • 3+ player games are fully working! So is Windows/Linux crossplay!!!
  • Added a note when entering Multiplayer for the first time, in case people are blindly opening up a stable/dev build.
  • Raised the input prediction window so now you're able to play with fellow Argentinians without slow motion gameplay.
  • Multiplayer input delay can be changed with the "Input Delay" option in Options.
  • Level warping is now possible in multiplayer, no more awkward softlocks.
• Added a scoreboard for when you complete a scenario or lose all lives:

The only thing left is to figure out why most VPNs are messing up P2P connections. @nonk has been hard at work on refactoring the hell out of the backend and it shows, so hopefully the VPN issue will be resolved pretty soon.

Sidenote, rewrite branch is now on master, so dev builds are back to being alive now.

• The source code is being completely rewritten. The entire application now runs in a single loop, no more giant switch cases, objects have been decoupled from K_game for clean game code, ... ... ...

• Console window is no longer visible, you will need to launch Klawiatura through the Command Prompt to see logs.

• Assets are no longer limited to 8-character file names.

• @nonk added IPv6 support.

• Lobbies are now either hosted or joined explicitly, there are no longer implicit lobby setups.

• 3+ player desyncs are FINALLY FIXED, but it will take a while for the GekkoNet dev to merge the fix for a stable update.

• You can actually configure things for once (also a new menu system):
  

• Lobbies no longer autostart, you can configure game rules on the go.

• Since the application window can be resized now, you'll get widescreen borders around the game screen:
  

• Kevin is no longer a menu option. Figure out how else to summon him.

Most of the new stuff can be found GitHub on the rewrite branch.

Definitely will try this this eventually, just when I'm done with MFCE 2.0, which I haven't even begun to play

I am DEFINITELY curious on what is the possible limit to how many players there can be, if there can be more than 4.

Looking forward to this!

Singleplayer footage of Hardcore World 1. All of the multiplayer features are disabled when playing alone, so restarting and going between levels is possible. There's still no level changing in multiplayer though, I'm still figuring out a stable way to do that.

Anyway, go forth my Funny Tanks:

Gameplay video coming soon if I could somehow lure out 3 more players for stress testing (3+ player desyncs are still there, just don't lose any packets or that happens...)

Editing objects is very cryptic for now

Can't wait to make levels with the help of Ghidra

• 32-bit builds (labelled WinXP). Crossplay between Win64 and WinXP is possible.
• @nonk rewrote the whole lobby system so it doesn't time out the 3rd player anymore. Linux support is also very close, but it was only tested using WSL.
• KlaEditor moved to its own repository. Also, it has a pre-release build. Editing objects is very cryptic for now, since you have to work with raw fixed-point numbers (65536 or 0x00010000 means 1) or object indices from the game's code.

Editor:

In-game:

Fun fact, collision boxes for objects can't go past 256x256 pixels because of static limits. That's why solid markers are placed oddly in the editor.
