Making my own hats

Hello everyone, Hedgewars Tricks here.
I thought it would be pretty cool to make my own Hedgehog hats, but I wanted to know if I needed any special template for it.
If anyone is able to provide the template, or provide any helpful hints to making them, that would be just dandy!
Thank you in advance

Moving Hedgewars code/bug tracker to GitHub

This is probably similar to other of the unrealistic topics I made recently (I mean, few-months-recently).

Right now, Hedgewars is self-hosting on some obscure Mercurial repository. It's also on GitHub, but that's just an illusion - a mirror. That's probably a matter of taste, but still, I found it hard contributing when I written some code. It's impossible to do any useful stuff via the repo interface and sending commit patches is just... well, actually that's more problem for the developers, since they have to fix them and merge them manually. Still it looks like forum/IRC are primary (a.ka. the only) channels for contribution. On the forum there isn't any dedicated section for that. On IRC, not everyone reads the logs (not to mention that discussion isn't organized at all).

Also there's bugzilla. You are supposed to submit bugs there, but the interface isn't really friendly either. You can't edit what you just wrote, there's no formatting, it's awkward to update your submission details and you can only attach files via "attachments" and links.

My point is, I've been using GitHub a lot recently. Created issues, commented issues, made some pull requests. And I have to say I love using it. The interface is amazingly clean and friendly and attracts random contributors simply by being awesome. I mean, Hedgewars is open-source. Open-source software is supposed to have contributors, otherwise we rely on busy developers and the development becomes stale. And right now it's not friendly to contribute, like, at all. Maybe except for some Linux programmers, who are used to obscure interfaces.

But I recently contributed to another open-source project and it's a totally different world. They actively use issues as an easy way for ANY user to submit a bug. The issues are easy to browse, easy to search and labels categorize them really well. Doing pull requests is easy too.

A Question about replays

Hi,
I was trying to replay a record, I typed /watch 49471, then game is aborted and kicked from replay.

Rarely appears the error: cannot use weapon scheme "Default"! or ! Incorrect command 'EM' (state: in lobby)

What is the problem ?

Using 0.9.25

Regards
