    We’re working towards releasing a new build of KAG this week, with many improvements for the average player, modders, and server admins.

    • Bans and Whitelist Fixed
      A long standing issue with bans has been fixed, and the whitelist has also been fixed for those that want private servers. Bans by username, and IP should work properly again. As a bonus, ban reasons now work and are reflected in the blacklist file and under /listbans
    • Server Browser more Intuitive
      We’ve added colour support to the server browser, so official servers will show up gold, and modded servers will show up blue. This gives players more visual cues without clicking anything, so they’re better informed as to what they’re joining. The “vanilla only” filter will also automatically turn itself off after a day of being registered so that new players can more easily find modded servers.
    • More TDM Maps
      Exactly what it says on the tin :) Many community maps, from 8x, Asumagic, Joiken, and kodysch have been included in the default map cycle, and a larger one from Sgnt_Sneaky-Pants has been included separately in case any hosts want to run a different TDM experience.
    • Mapycle Randomisation Fixed
      Hosts may have noticed that the randomisation was quite lacking before, it should be quite a bit more engaging now, especially useful for TDM or small CTF servers.

    There are a couple of miscellaneous fixes in the mix as well, but you’ll have to wait for the changelog for those. Should be out on Friday if testing goes smoothly.

    Cheers,

    Max/Geti

    Oh god! Ban improvements - finally, gj guys. Also I like the idea with 'vanilla only' filter (mentioned above).
    Btw. I would like to see improvements with lags and some kind of optimization. For example all knows catapults lagapults lags the server. I think KAG could work better. Much better.

    I'm turning into Duploblocks by posting this but I actually remembered suggesting that tweak and here was the post.

    Plox. Plox, plox, plox. It makes me die a little inside each time the spawn counter resents. :QQ:

    Most likely won't be fixed this next build I'm afraid, I'm well aware that it's an issue and it's on my list of stuff to do since cameron has been on my back about it, haha.
