There are some issues with using the user directory. In particular, the game has trouble reading some characters and therefore no maps or mods will be detected or be playable.

@jip I will add custom paths for everything late, as i know, i need to manipulate with patch files?

It didn't happen the way I planned, but for the fun of it, you can already try it.

I want to say the main things:

• at the moment it is alpha 0.0000003, it is uncontrolled
• if you lose the Internet, I do not know what will happen to you
• You can connect to the server only at startup
• It is recommended to be used by people with a stable Internet, but even with a stable Internet, the application may crash

Java SE Development Kit 8u231 <<<<< REQUIRED

ALSO First launch can be bad, you must look for cpu usage time to time xD. Still requires some internal work

Now you can host any kind of map you want without even having it locally

You removed Grimplex from your foe-friend list, but besides that: looks great . Is it still as responsive as you set it out to be?

Yeah and i am sure i can speed it up a lot of more, but it will require some better knowledge

Currently it has lack of connectivity control with lobby, i have no control on reconnection system right now xD Maybe next week i will fix it

You can try it now, i think it is stable +-

@Eternal Personally I would not download any ting from that link I assume you have a Github that you can do a release on which would be a more recognised site for people to download from?

@rowey Fixed

Nice work, the menu is really shaping up to something special..

@photek xDDDDDD Sorry, it is AD from website. I have ability to hide it, but it is kinda complicated right now

@Eternal What in the flying heck? There are ADs in the client? Are you kidding?
