while all mentioned fixes are dandy and nice, i think an updated answer to two far more serious questions need some answering...

what about rankings?
what about secure logins?

if those get fixed, nothing else really needs fixing

so, is the patch under work? Just thought to check after a couple months to see if it was true... I'll still wait, patiently.

I don't care if it takes 5 years. As long as there IS a patch, I'm happy. It can take as long as they want!

Plus, while waiting months for the patch, there's always W3D to play, plus there are OTHER games out there, too. If you like Turn-based games, try Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic. It's a turn-based strategy with some RPG elements. It's fun if you like fantasy.

http://www.ageofwonders.com/ is the site.

What happened the AFK idea that skips worms' turns when enabled?
When I first posted it, almost nobody seemed to like it, but I hardly heard anyone mention it still.
Would it suffice for the pausing need some people have?

Edit: Also, I want to know why, sometimes, if someone has lagged for a long time, the screen turns crazy colours and the game usually freezes.
Is that a bug you've heard of? That's happened to me several times.

People have talked about the afk idea. I think that idea is a hell of a lot better than the pause feature. pause is stupid, afk is sweet idea.

There was talk of making it a public beta program, and I really hope Team17 decides on that. I think it'd be ideal, especially as it's exactly the sort of thing my efforts at backwards-compatibility have been targeted to facilitate.

Have you posted any pre-releases of the ßeta patch? I'm sure I saw one posted somewhere.
Did you want us to report bugs found in those?

Yup, theres a pre-release on my site, near the bottom of the programs page. Visit http://www.worms3d.net/ or http://www.j0e.org/ , whichever link suits you better I think it's still hotlinked off the www site, but i haven't gotten around to changing it yet. Enjoy

Does any one think that Team17 should release a licenced program that emulates the fiddler program but has an easier interface and posably works with in worms. A program that could set rules for roperaces or shopping matches and such. I'm not sugesting that this be incorperated in the beta patch3 due to a ton of programing. but perhaps in a futer patch.

It would work within W:A in the sence that you have the terain editor and in a seperate button yu have the match rules, and you have the weapons editor, amd you have the misc (such as setting water color, and gravity levels, weapons/health drop probabilities.

Just an idea

well, ß is the greek letter beta, as well as the German ss, so you should be saying "what is a betaeta patch?"

Blame TonY,

He's the one said you were going to help "keeper" on page 6 or 7.. no matter though... at least YOU didn't get banned....lol

ummm and that link above that takes you to a post you had made earlier in this bord could be considered a bit risky.... e-mail team17 about it or a moderator at least. I can see by the post that you didn't mean any harm by it. after all you did say that you should own the orriginal.

Any one else have a coment about this (off topic yes but lets keep this thread going it's pretty long.)

Thus a vicious circle is completed.

ßeta patch? What's a sseta patch?

---

You're absolutely right about the scharfes s, but this forum doesn't support extended Unicode, and I wrote it differently for most people to understand. How come Wormnet displays the scharfes s instead of the real Greek letter? That's not a suggestion though.

A few Hispanics who don't use the forum have supported my idea of putting more flags on Wormnet. The Spain flag is really overused, but I am not sure if enough people notice this for more flags to be considered for the imminent patch.
Some Chilean wormers have even started to use the Puerto Rico flag due to circumstances.

Alright, I'm going to make my suggestion now. Get rid of the bug that allows frozen worms to collect crates that fall on their heads.

I'm with you, psydome, wasn't this the main reason for the patch in the first place??? The rest of the fixes will be nice, but why the complete silence on the ranks issue???
Maybe 4 years of waiting has made me paranoid, but a simple, yes it will be done or no it won't, would make my day.

---

Ok, I'm pretty sure I will be working on ranks and secure logins. But I want to do it right. And that means getting other things ready and restructured first. In fact I've been pulling some all-nighters restructuring some things.

While you're at it, maybe you can investigate why flags and ranks are immediately displayed in the channel select screen but in the channel, everything takes long to load. Is there a reason for it?

Reading through the forum an interesting question was posed, How do the staff of Team 17 feel about the Fiddler program. And I see that you are a respected individual recieving the "TEAM17 HELPER" above your avatar, so I am as well interested in your oppinion. Do you feel that such a program could be benificial to worm net if nested in the W:A Program itself as sugested before? Or Should Players not have so much control over the game's variables.
