Hoihoi!

Can any one tell me, which programming language was used to implement the core components of the game?

...always thought it would be "BlitzBasic", which was used for worms1-dc - it got stuck in my head somehow for worms2+, too - but might be different one ^^

Losing every game has an advantage for lazy people - no need to upload replays

Has something changed in wormnet? 95% of the games noone seems to even say "hf". I consider this very basic courtesy. Often first message on chat is "fck" or worse.

This makes me feel uncomfortable, which causes me failing (more than the usual ^^), which leads to me not having fun... And as I play just for fun, seems my reason for playing worms is gone.

Maybe I should stop playing worms for a while, but I'm afraid that wormnet even became a more rude place, when I return... 

Ahoihoi!

I try to install W:A 3.6.31 (for playing px) via wine. Everthing finaly whent fine until... WormKit doesn't work.

I replaced the dsound.dll with the one provided by Kawoosh (see https://worms2d.info/WormKitDS), but nothing happens at all. No WKs loading...

Any1 got an idea?

Ahoihoi!

With the latest Update of VirtualBox (5.1.4_OSE r110228) the sound of W:A is delayed by ~2 seconds.
This is very annoying... I think I could just downgrade VB, but I also like to have newest versions installed.

Maybe someone else had that problem, and solved it? Or anyone does know how to correct this?

ArchLinux is host system and WinXP SP2 guest... other applications in guest-XP seem to work fine (no sound delay), it's just worms.

Please don't suggest downgrading VB, as I already see that as possible ("dirty") solution 

Ahoi!

I always used http://faw-wa.tk/school_basic_tricks.html for looking up how to do tricks, witch I don't know from memory.
But the site seems to be down... replaced by some "you're the 1,000,000th visitor"-site.

Is there an alternative? Will Freestyle AnyWhere reup the site?

Ahoihoi!

i uploaded this map https://www.tus-wa.com/maps/map-16629/ also to wmdb.org (2 times) and it got deleted without notice both times.
Any thought why it got deleted? And who is the Admin of WMDB, who deletes maps there?

Seeing the manny shitty, ugly, not working maps on wmdb - I don't get why mine should be deleted...
Tested it - it worked. Strange...

Ahoi!

I like to use the left windows-key as enter – so I maped it with wkRemapKeys
Enter = LeftWin, Enter
When I press it in order to fire a weapon from rope, the weapon gets fired – but ~0.3 sec later the game gets minimized and startmenu opens.

For now I maped the key via change of scancode map, but would be glad for solution with wkRemapKeys, as I don't whant to use the left win-key as enter all the time.

Ahoi!

I tried to register our new Clan 'Krokant Clan' - with the Clan-HP 'http://k.kai.dj' which is a valid URL.
But I get the message it isn't a valid URL...

When somebody new in wormnet enters rule-requireing games - I like to send them "read worms2d.info" - (if I manage to type it before he gets kicked).

As some of the information on worms2d.info is outdated ("proPACK-rule", dead links, ...) and i.e. Tomi's Newbie guide book is present - I wonder if that is a good practice.

Also: I'd like to update some of the information on worms2d.info, but get the impression it is planned to let it die slowly.
Is that the case? Or should I update? Where to point new players (maybe shortlink for Newbie guide book)?

[edit] Working now with Great Snooper - you can check "Use
snooper rank". [/edit]
Ahoi!

When I try to host games with HostingBuddy via snooper, nothing happens.
He also ignores, when I message him (instead of answering "I'm a bot...").
I did send him /allowsnooper and until ~a week ago it worked very well.
Tried with GreatSnooper 1.4.9 and WheatSnooper 2.9.2.

If any1 has a possible solution, I would be very glad - using a snooper brings so much comfort, compared to the w:a-frontend...

Hi!

My keyboard doesn't react to spacebar, when I press 2 arrow keys the same time.
(http://worms2d.info/Troubleshooting_FAQ#The_game_doesn.27t_react_to_some_of_the_keys_I_press)

Since I don't like using other keys mapped to space - can any1 recommend a keyboard with german layout for playing worms?
It doesn't need to be a gaming keyboard - I don't play other games than worms... so affordable would be the important thing after solving the rollover problem.
