Hi! I have modified 4 missions: 3 training missions and the RC plane challenge. In short, I have made a lot of changes to the final stats screen to make it much more interesting. The mission dialog is always so quickly gone.

In cluster bomb training and sniper rifle training, you get a score at the end of the mission, based on the remaining time, number of destroyed targets and your accuracy. The score, shots, hits and maybe the accuracy is shown at the end in the stats screen so you have enough time to read it.
I also removed the health graph because it is needless there.

Here is a screenshot after a successful cluster bomb training round:

(sorry, languages are mixed up here, I was to lazy to change language. “Punkte” means “points” and “Platzierung” means “ranking”.)
It looks similar for the other missions.

I also modified the bazooka training in a similar way but you get no score because the targets spawn randomly.

At last, I have made a lot of changes to the RC Plane challenge. Now the stats screen shows the number of used planes and even how many missiles you have thrown. And the longest “streak” (that is, the biggest number of crates destroyed or collected with 1 plane).
And most importantly, you get a rank solely based on how many planes you used. The best rank is “Top-class elite pilot”.

I also added a few taunts for this mission to add some flavor to it. So if you mess up exceptionally stupidly, a taunt plays.

In this thread let's post random things (but related to hedgewars) that were spawned by the cumulative boredom/silliness of the developers and players in the Live Chat.

Don't expect those random things to have any quality or to make any sense
(especially due to lack of context).

Hey all, and thanks for a great game! Just found out about it and I've loved worms since worms 2

I saw a dev here accepted bitcoin donations so I donated a small sum. Would be great if other devs advertised their bitcoin address as well.

You should also take a look at

then maybe you can get some more appreciation for your awesome work!

Um, hello to you all. My name's Felix but you could just call me Fire (my old name) if you prefer. Um, I actually seem rather nervous with posting this thread considering this is my first time actually getting involved with the community here but I guess creating an account here after playing the game for a few days seems like a good start.

I always did like Hedgewars when I played it for the first time ever a few years ago and I'm glad to see this game have a lot more content since then. I don't know if I'll actually contribute to the community considering digital art isn't my thing however...

Okay, I think I've gone on long enough, I hope I can make some friends here if nothing else and maybe I'll see you around the server.
