Urban Terror launcher

URTrator

URTrator is a desktop application that should (eventually) replace Urban Terror's and IRC client interfaces for you, because they're pretty shitty :).

Disclaimer: This software isn't written nor supported (for now) by FrozenSand. All code is a community effort.

Right now it can:

• Obtaining list of Urban Terror servers from master server and updating information about them.
• Local caching of whole data (in SQLite3 database).
• Extended Urban Terror launching capabilities (e.g. launching game in another X session).
• Supporting of multiple profiles with multiple game versions. When you're launching Urban Terror URTrator will check profile you're trying to use and, if version incompatability found, will not launch the game.
• Favorites servers.
• Updating single server.
• Automatically update servers information.
• Showing information about servers (like in UrT Connector).
• Clipboard monitoring.

Planning:

• Friends searching.
• RCON console.
• Game updating (not from official servers yet, sorry).
• Pickup/matchmaking interfaces.
• All kinds of notifications.
• Extended profile editor, so every profile could have own configuration files, etc.
• ...maybe more :)

Installation

Precautions

There is no precautions for latest source with Golang 1.11.2 and GTK+2 2.24.32.

Release

You don't need to install anything, thanks to Go's. URTrator executable contains everything we need. Just download approriate binary and launch it! :) The only thing is to make sure you have GTK2 and sqlite3 installed.

Windows and macOS users will receive full distribution that is ready to be launched OOB, no need to additionally install anything.

Distro-and-OS specific instructions

• MacOS
• Windows (to be written)
• Nixes: read below.

Development version

URTrator written in Go and GTK2, so you should have them installed. Make sure your GOPATH variable is defined.

Then execute:

go get -d go.dev.pztrn.name/urtrator
go install go.dev.pztrn.name/urtrator

First command will get sources of URTrator and dependencies, second command will build executable for you and place it in $GOROOT/bin.

Updating

go get will do initial repo clone for you, but flag -u is required to get updated URTrator source. So, for updating sources just issue:

go get -d -u go.dev.pztrn.name/urtrator

Again, this will only update sources. To build executable you have to issue:

go install go.dev.pztrn.name/urtrator

Important information

macOS users - problems with Retina displays and blurry font

If you're on macOS and experiencing blurry font - apply Retinizer on .app. This will patch everything to use current screen DPI.

This isn't applied by default because it might create problems on displays with standart DPI.

Translation

Feel free to ping me everywhere you can and ask for adding a language for translation, if not already added here.

Also, if you're testing (or using) URTrator from source tree with go run you should also specify URTRATOR_BINDIR variable. This variable tells URTrator where it sources is and from where translations should be taken.

GTK warnings in console

Many GTK warnings in console may appear while using URTrator. Unfortunately, they are out of control, because they are related to Go GTK+2 bindings and nothing can be done on URTrator side.

Why GTK+2?

Because GTK+3 going on "stable api nonsense" way. And also it have some troubles with integrating with current popular WM/DE (like XFCE4, Openbox, etc.). And also I already tired of that shitty Adwaita and Cantarella.

If you want to use GTK+3, well, you can write UI for yourself, Go bindings exist.

Show bots separately from users

Show bots as separate number in servers lists and in server information in sidebar.

Profile copy

Add possibility to copy profile data into any version.

Ability to detect bots on server

Usually bots have ping equals 0. URTrator should be able to detect them and show as separate number in players count column.

Translatable interface

We should have possibility to translate interface into different languages.

Proper servers pinging

Right now server's ping isn't reliable and can show veeeery bad values.

Show servers update progress

As our requester pretty much can update counters of updated servers, we should also show this counter in toolbar's label.

Servers history

urtrator should be able to keep server's history, including passwords.

Rework favorites dialog

Favorites dialog should look as pretty as profile editor.

More modern about dialog

Standart GTK about dialog (which following GNOME HUD) is not bad, but there is no way to enable text wrapping, which makes about dialog look very ugly. So we need to make pretty about dialog.

Game updating

Add ability to update game version.

Probably, this should also be dealed with FrozenSand, maybe they can give some kind of API or similar to get access to their update servers?

Update servers by timer

URTrator should be able to update server's data by timer.

Message Dialogs useless on Linuxes

Waiting for fix on go-gtk2 side.

Extended profile editor

Add ability to create own Urban Terror configuration with mouse and without reading ioq3's sources.

macOS theming is awful

We should do something with Look and Feel thing, because macOS build uses "MS Windows" style.

Place where to put authkey

We need a place in options where to put authkey.

This should not be profile-specific, as we will support (as officially in game) only one auth key at every moment of time.

Mac integration

We should integrate into macOS interface.

[FR] add a tab with a news.

[FR] add a tab with a news from urbanterror.info and urban-zone.org

More filters

Add more servers lists filters, like gamemode, ping limit, etc.

Self-updating

Add ability to self-update, with possibility to disable it in build-time for packaging for distros.

Also, if not disabled while building, toggling should be controlled from settings.

Check servers for acceptable pings

Check if current server ping is within acceptable range (as reported by sv_maxping cvar) and colorize line with red (or lightred) color is ping isn't within 0-sv_maxping range.

no game profile selected on launch

When you launch there is no game profile selected.

Friends searching

Add ability to search for friends.

[FR] add a tab with a history like in UrT Connector.

[FR] add a tab with a history like in UrT Connector.

RCON console

Add ability to administer servers with RCON console.

Investigate possible crash on "unprofiled" launching with nickname overrided in quick launch

Steps to repro:

[06:45] pretsell: fresh install
[06:46] pretsell: no profile
[06:46] pretsell: select server
[06:46] pretsell: click launch
[06:46] pretsell: had nickname set
[06:46] pretsell: (still don't get it XD (will wait for @kronoz explaination))

Rework options window

It was composed superugly, but should be superpretty :).

Fully-featured profiles editor

Create profiles editor that can be called from profile creation dialog. It should be able to set maximum of possible CVars in Urban Terror's configuration file.

[FR] ncurses interface for URTrator.

Feature request for ncurses interface of URTrator with launch by key.

[FR] monitoring server and password in the clipboard and automatically insert to the panel "Quick connect".

[FR] monitoring server and password in the clipboard and automatically insert to the panel "Quick connect".

Profile autoselection based on server version

urtrator should be able to automagically select game profile based on server's version, if profile exists. Otherwise it should pop up a message about missing profile for version.

[FR] add the ability to select a nickname in panel "Quick connect" like in UrT Connector.

Feature request for add the ability to select a nickname in panel "Quick connect" like in UrT Connector.

Proper columns sorting

Right now sorting in columns are bad and not logical.
