Heyyy,

It will be possible to see the crosshair and +1 in replay. I think before release.
Screeshot will stay as this atm, we have other priorities. I have added it in the list.
When you ask about replay editor, be more specific please.
Maniacup will be with beta 2, still "scheduled" for somewhere in December.
Club visuals inside the maps shall arrives with beta 2, not finished, so I can't confirm.
No showfps default setting, added to the list, don't know when or will do.
Organizations are a concept that is always under dev since years ^^ Enables bigger thrusted entities for players and offers some services. Number is limited by the big amount of Planets it requires to have one, and the thrust, a little by the risk of losing them ^^

Thx Hylis :).

Last question, is possible to edit the "teamname" on the scoreboard instead of Blue and Red?
It might be good for streams etc...

That is possible by doing for instance:

http://methods.xaseco.org/methodstmc.php#113

Code: Select all

	 * Set Team names and colors. Only available to Admin.
	 * @param string $teamName1
	 * @param float $teamColor1
	 * @param string $team1Country
	 * @param string $teamName2
	 * @param float $teamColor2
	 * @param string $team2Country

Each title has 600MB~800MB, plus ManiaPlanet base engine. I just tried. Installed Canyon (1.2GB setup files) fresh on my laptop, now clicked on Storm -> update 1.3e required, downloading new update (1.05GB, with 635MB Storm.zip ).
So Canyon + Storm + ManiaPlanet might be some 2GB (packed files).
The update message is confusing since it tells exactly the same for all things (ManiaPlanet, Canyon, Storm).
But you can be sure that it is only downloading the respective files necessary.
Some people find it annoying to have to update each separately, some want to have a big common udpate.
Perhaps an option to chose which updates would be nice.

Indeed, once Maniaplanet is installed, it will update what is necessary along the path you take inside of it. An option to update everything can be looked one day, but keep in mind that with title packs that are in the cloud, it will get more and more demanding to do so.

This means, If I have the title Storm and Canyon installed and for Storm exist an update, it will only be downloaded if I start Storm, but I can play Canyon without loading the Storm update?
If this is the case, it might be convenient to have an update check when you join the game that checks the titles available and if there is an updated available or not. Maybe mark the title stations that require an update to be playable with a red border.

yep u can play canyon whitout update the other titles ;) i play canyon with storm not updated at the moment, but not for long becouse I was happely surprised today by the update system in Maniaplanet, i updated the title storm and at 29 % my connection failed, and a message pop up and say the update download failed, so it says retry, and for me retry is start over from null again, but guess what it continued from where i was, great i can play storm again ^^
