Before asking questions

[turk55]

Alright, well more and more threads keep popping up by members who seek help without them providing enough informations.

Therefore this thread so they can hopefully provide solid information for those who seek help.

Key information when requesting help:

• Source, what source are you using?
• What patch is it aimed at?
• What have you done to solve this issue? (Show the code)

Here is a preview:

There are 2 things that im actually stuck at, showing the popup to the leader on request join and showing that the player is in the team. The member does get into the teammember dictionary and I do the send the packet so I just can't seem to understand what I am doing wrong.

Code for the invite to the leader:

leader.Send(TeamInteractPacket.Create(client.UID, TeamInteractType.RequestJoin));

Code for entering the player into the team:

Player joiner = PlayerManager.GetUser(packet.UID);
client.Send(TeamInteractPacket.Create(joiner.UID, TeamInteractType.AcceptJoin));
TeamMember player = new TeamMember(joiner, client.Team.TeamUID);
client.Team.Members.TryAdd(joiner.UID, player);
client.Send(TeamMemberInformation.Create(player, TeamMemberAction.AddMember));

This is in the Redux release, therefore the patch and source are already given.


Provide as much information as you can, this will help both you and us to come up with a solution. Screenshots or even videos can help.

Some problems can't be explained through text and images. So if you happen to be able to re-produce the problem, tell us the steps you made for it to occur.


If you can't solve your problems with the help of the community and you are willing to pay for the fix, have a look in the volunteer thread

I hope this helps members to give enough information for when they ask help.

Rofl I already posted a thread for this while you were writing this.

omg i can't stop laughing like what is the odds that 2 members post almost the same thread at the same time with different words
and what would fang possible do, merge , close one , leave both , being mod isn't that easy after all XD

Neither. I don't mean to be rude, but these threads are kind of spam. It's kind of a "duh" that you should do these things, and the people who do need to read this won't and don't care. If people aren't doing them, then they simply aren't very bright. As far as the volunteer stuff goes, I have that in the rules for this section. I also have my thread that I link to once and a while:
