All in hudmatchstatus.res TeamStatus:
Does "chargeamount" and "ReadyBG"/"ReadyImage" actually work ?
Are there any other options to team1/2_grow_dir than "east" and "west" ?
Any way to y-offset the second team ?

Hey, just to make sure, the deadline is June 10th?
I'll give it a try, I have a few ideas.

If you suicide in spawn, you can instantly respawn by changing loadout or class
(I think this applies to fall damage deaths as well?)

File format is half-documented here: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/DEM_Format
I clearly recall Icewind (demos.tf creator) mentioning that he managed to slice demos into playable chunks, as for retrieving data, it can be done using https://github.com/demostf/demo.js or https://github.com/SizzlingStats/demboyz

What Brimstone said is true.
I do plan on providing additional stats, whether it be by generating logs for logs.tf or by proposing and coding features for demos.tf.
I can foresee that players would rather have all their logs in one website (that would currently be logs.tf) but the integration would be painful and error-prone.
I think demos.tf has more potential to be a more fitting service for us *and the rest of the community* in the long run:
- STV demos will never require a third party plugin to run (meaning ESEA demos could be uploaded)
- Additional features can be applied to older demos (whereas new logs features can't be backported)
- Intensive stats will never require the gaming server to choke
- Demos.tf software is open source, any kind of statistic can be added
- Hypothetical: stats could be generated directly from a live STV feed (granted you plug it before the match starts)
- 2d/3d Heatmaps
- Automatically slice demos for fragmovie makers

I could come up with even more ideas, the only limiting factor is my free time

There are some downsides, obviously:
- Demo analysis (without packet filter) can be quite CPU expensive
- Demos take more space
- Both meaning that stats may take longer to be available
- It's possible that STV demos are missing crucial packets to provide information to clone stats from logs.tf

What exactly are you having trouble with ?
I think the document you shared does a pretty good job splitting the task in smaller sub-tasks that can easily be resolved.

nullifiedcat doesn't push code or really handle his telegram anymore (guess he moved on?), it's all BenCat07 and some other of his cronies
the lagbot basically doesn't chose a class and spams +use to the server, which is not rate limited in tf2

Wtf, it shot the rocket to the side (where he aimed during the flick), it made absolutely no noise and no self-damage (it looks close enough though)
Ammo reserve goes from 18 to 19, he picked up an ammo pack and shot so it makes sense
Watch the vid at x0.25 speed

EDIT: he then proceeds to rocket jump, assuming he did not shoot a rocket, and the gun was reloading and empty, preventing the rocket jump

EDIT2: Do you have the demo file @Alfie?

EDIT3: Load up cp_process and type in console

sv_cheats 1; noclip; setpos -788 -2414 590; setang 26 -85 0

This puts you at the almost-exact angle and position when the ghost rocket explodes
-- If you match the position of the explosion (in the frame when the explosion happens, it shows in the bottom left of the screen), the rocket *does* self-damage for about 10

I need a life

I wouldn't say this is the bug because he did manage to get a rocket after the reload animation

I've had it happen as well, although rarely
Impossible to reproduce locally with mouse clicks scripted (~300 clicks per second) and fakejitter/fakelag
I would throw a wild guess that it has to do with client interpolation and the server considering reloading + shooting to be an erroneous state, resetting to default state, which is not reloading and not shooting

I suggest uploading to the workshop, it won't expire there.

I realize loading workshop maps is dumb and complicated:

Subscribe to the map on the workshop
Get the id in the url (something like 1373060214)
In the console, make an alias to load the map

alias tyler_rocket_shooting 'map workshop/1373060214'

I. How many hours do you sleep per night on average?
8-9

II. How consistent is your sleep schedule? How would you rate your consistency from 1-5(5 being best)?
1

III. What times do you usually go to bed and wake up?
My cycle is around 25-26 hours, I never wake up at the same hours

IV. How often do you nap and for what duration when you do?
Never, I tried a few times and it ended up being a full night of sleep

V. How many days/week do you use an alarm?
0, I can't adapt to one

VI. On a scale of 1-5, how satisfied are you with your sleep recently? (Not the quality of your sleep habits, but the quality of the sleep you do get)
2.5

VII. What is your latitude and do you feel affected by it?
47.64° N, No

(optional): any interesting facts about your sleep habits
Accelerated programming school absolutely fucked me.
It was 24/7 open so I could come in at any time, which I did, for 2 years, and I never dropped the habit because I felt active.

I will see you lovely international people at this international LAN of global proportions

Okay, fuck it, I'm taking the bait:

- Insomnia has been THE TF2 LAN since forever, it will always bring back peeps like TEZC, etc
- The NEC is an amazing venue, the airport is a 20 minute walk away, most hotels are 5 to 15 minutes walk away (compare that to LAX being an hour drive to the venue and most hotels being 10 min drive, Uber thanks you)
- NA food literally kills players
- Rewind is in SoCal, aka on the wrong side of the country, the timezone absolutely sucked for stream watchers
+ Rewind had computers provided
+ Rewind had a bigger prizepool
+ Rewind entry tickets were cheaper
- I highly doubt traveling was more expensive if you compare locals/foreigners (EU->NA was probably generally as expensive as NA->EU, NA->NA was probably generally as expensive as EU->EU)

Rewind I and II were great, they're just not the same, they'll never be.
I understand you don't want to spend the money, I absolutely do, but some of these issues can be resolved (Essentials.tf could find more sponsors and provide computers to the NA/top teams), making the few points that Rewind has quite minuscule.

Note: "Keep in mind that FACEIT does have a 48 hour cooldown on region changes, so you’d be locked into each region for a short time whenever you want to swap" is actually false, there is a cooldown on region change but region isn't required to queue, so once accepted into the Hub, you would be able to queue on both regions.

Hey, we're gonna try kickstarting EU Advanced/Invite this evening and during the rest of the weekend, see you at 6PM CEST.
