Shoozza made it possible to click the label in front of the IP field to copy the server IP, port and password together (soldat://ip:port/password). This can then, as has always been possible, be pasted in the IP field.
Shoozza fixed a bug making interface images that aren't in the used interface invisible.
Shoozza added an 8-bit icon to the installer because of some crash on XP. I'm not sure what this was, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Shoozza also fixed a bug making the flagthrow key be assigned to G if it wasn't assigned to anything yet.
I fixed the weird warp bug when players are inside team collider polygons.
I also added RayCastEx to the scriptcore. It has more options for the raycasting for all scripters out there who will always want more.

Thanks for posting the devlog

I had to replace the soldat icon in the installer with a 8bit version but it looks the same

. The 24bit icon will still be used in soldat.exe that's why I didn't remove it.
You might want to add the RayCastEx function to the wiki

Version 1.6.3. has just been released. And Soldat development is still going strong.

It makes me very happy that you guys invest so much effort and time in this fabulous game. :]

It's also nice to see all these old players coming back since the new release.
This is pretty exciting!

Keep up the good work!

Oh, and BTW, I finally decided to fix the annoying nade-through-wall bug (think ctf_Ash roof), so no more whining about people abusing that bug! [/list]

how? does that mean there's no more throwing nade through walls on ANY map?

nice to see you didnt drop the pace, that you have such dedication, we owe you, guys

Good job! What is the RayCastEx function parameters? devs.soldat.pl doesn't list it.

Hah, that was a real shock for me when I saw Fryer as an author of devlog. But it's nice to see someone else working on Soldat.

Good job, devs!

Hah, that bug was like a planned part of game xD For involved pro players...

I asked him in-game today and he said yes, this bug has been fixed on all maps. So yay!

wow, that's huge news for R/S CS players, throwing nades through walls is kind of a feature there

Well done guys

We're all proud to have you as our devteam = )

TheOne · « **Reply #13 on:** May 15, 2012, 05:22:33 am »

As I read it, he was talking about throwing nades through very thick roofs.
The possibility to throw nades through door entrances standing infront of them is probably still there.
or.. did I get you wrong?

As de Espada · « **Reply #14 on:** May 15, 2012, 07:13:03 am »

Good job to devs! Don't overload Shoozza that much, having someone to work with is more motivating

The nade but: the fix is about nades between polys, or nades through thin polys? (or both?)

Throwing a nade at the space directly between two polygons will still cause it to bug its way through them, but I'm planning on fixing that bug as well. The bug I fixed was when you're standing very close to a thin wall and throw a nade against it, it would cause the nade to spawn or the other side of the wall (as if it goes through it.) After I fixed it, some people informed me that this bug was widely used in RSCS, so I hope that there are more people that support the bug fix than there are people abusing bugs in RSCS...

Soldat bugs = features. Leave them as they are.

troolololol

my words to CS:RS. less bugging more skilling

ExHunter · « **Reply #19 on:** May 15, 2012, 11:45:07 am »

Quite paradox: RS/CS and nades that can fly through walls.

Yea, but I know what they mean.. I used to play it alot..

But anyways: It's a bug and every bug that gets fixed makes Soldat better (in this case: in terms of realism).
