Good job. I like big map size

Hey @flashR, when would you be available for playing the game?

Just dreaming a bit: if WA had unicode (Asian languages, Russian, etc) support and built-in translation, our playerbase would explode overnight.

Remember there were hundreds of thousands of Korean Worms players back in the day. It wouldn't take many of them wanting a nostalgia trip to permanently revive WA. 

Maybe there is some hacky way to accomplish some kind of Unicode support (perhaps with Wormkit and/or using 3rd party chat tools to overlay the frontend and in-game chat menus?), linked to an online translation API.  A big downside is that the unicode chat couldn't be part of the replays without more complication (companion .WAchat files?). It does seem unlikely. Maybe there's something on GitHub we can work with.

Gamepad support would be popular too.  There's a Wormkit module now, but nothing compares to having it baked in.

Hey fewllow ropers. We finished the group phase and move on to the KO stage.
Have fun guys!

Yeah that idea was pitched by me after a chat about ideal league systems M3ntal and I had.

Though it was quite a few years ago that it was pitched now.

So yeah, our idea, the system works with a filter system. Every scheme is available(but of course when we say every scheme we don't mean 99% copies of other schemes), as there are thousands of schemes and the VAAAAAAST majority are slightly altered clones of slightly altered clones.

So every scheme has it's own individual ranking, the most active ones of the season, maybe the top 3 will have their own Playoffs.

The really cool part though is you can compare yourself against others in any way you can with the "mix'n'match" league filter.

So for example there are many strategic schemes... Team17, Intermediate, Kaos, Elite, Abnormal, etc.

You can pick all 5 of the above mentioned schemes in your filter and it will show you the overall stats for the schemes you just picked.

You don't play all those, only want to see Elite & Intermediate? Then remove the others from the filter and check again!

I could compare myself in all of the schemes I enjoy, the ones I'm a top player in, the ones I suck at, any combination I want and see how I stack up against everyone else playing those schemes.

I am hoping that if and when this system is implemented, there is a complete wipe(but saved archive of course) of ALL standings on TUS with a completely fresh start.

It might encourage me to play a little bit, but you know, that's if there are other players in existence by the time it happens lol.

MonkeyIsland also was interested in rank decay too as there are players who noob bash and then turn inactive and they don't deserve to sit at the top of the rankings.

But all of this relys on MI and they isn't fair.

Hopefully Deadcode and Cybershadow also have plans for future updates and as mentioned. I personally think secure logins, problem free hosting and some moderation of wormnet behaviour is far more important than any in game features.

Sorry, I didn't see that, I've not been searching through map packs, only recently bought Worms Armageddon mid-May 2025 & been scrolling through the maps individually. If you want me to take this offline, please let me know.

I think this thread has had its course long ago. I'm closing it.

@MonkeyIsland I want my replays analyzed if it's possible and I'm begging for a ban if the results are that im saving more than couple milliseconds in play. I dont want to be a part of this toxic community anymore where self-important and self-centered individuals can manipulate others to get what they want. I'm done.

Quote from: Kradie on July 12, 2025, 06:40 PMIn this specific case the cheating topic, I do not think I am dividing the community, and here is why.

The poll
The result speaks for itself, overwhelmingly number of people are against cheating in an online multiple game. Moral ambiguity is no longer shrouded in doubt. Though I do believe personally, that most people know very well deep down, that cheating was and is bad anyway.

Royal Ropers (RR). This community was made NOT to chastise and ostracize people who cheats with rope aid. It was made to highlight legit roping, without the use and glorification of rope aid. In addition to that, the recent buzz about rope scripts here on WA, and TUS, acted as a catalyst for RR creation.

Now to another thing..

Buy a new keyboard, or use worn down old keyboard, or use a broken one? I am not going to pretend that most people are sufficient with cash that they can buy expensive keyboards. If you want quality both in build and performance, you can always add more money into that. But it's not for everybody because their economic isn't that strong. Some people might not care for expensive keyboard, and rightfully so because their interest does not reside in such tech. You can easily buy a reasonable gaming keyboard for 10-60 euros Instead of having to rely on cheats.

If a person have enough passion for something, then there's no shame to buy something you can be proud of.

Look to football, if you like playing this sport, then it stands to reason you would buy shoes for best performance within your budget. Maybe you would even support your favorite football club as well.

In general: Why engage in something in that you genuinely love in a unethical fashion rather to buy something within your budget? If somebody is good at something, they have a responsibility to appear legit. It's good people are opening up here and there about their reliance on cheat. But it's not so ok to brush it under the rug because of a faulty key(s) on a kb..

Some months back I roped poorly because of keyboard. I had a Corsair K70 Pro and I was very happy with it. I had no reason to swap it out. But I had no other option because the K70 became partly defected and it didn't give me a good experience on Worms Armageddon. Some of you might think that's outrageous and crazy, but in reality it isn't because I love the game. So changing a keyboard, It's basically swapping out old shoes, keeper gloves, and baseball bat. All in the name for better time. Was it worth it? For me it was, absolutely. I paid approximately 120 bucks for this keyboard. It's also good with refresh as well.

because it's not unethical xD that's what i was trying to explain. script doesnt equal cheating. this particular one definitely not. the kawoosh infinity rope shots script okay cheating but this one?! it's laughable somebody would consider something that takes 6 months to learn cheating. im done. goodbye
