Which version should I choose?

Version 1.6 has the same online behaviour as Red Eclipse 1.6 and Blue Nebula. Version 1.7 is mostly compatible too but has some bigger changes that may cause a little different behaviour in some places.

What operating systems can I use?

Linux: Client and server work and are precompiled in the zip file. OpenBSD: The server has been tested but you need to compile it. Other operating systems: you need to compile the source code and it may or may not work.

The name "Fragility"

The name is a combination of what this game is mostly about: fragging and agility.

Source code

The source code is included in the zip file with the game. It is written in the C++ and C languages. There is a git repository you can clone by running:

git clone https://www.robalni.org/fragility/fragility.git

Changelog

Changes in 1.7, compared to 1.6:

• Fixed aim being slightly off caused by muzzle not being in the same position as camera so you would sometimes not hit where the crosshair was.
• Shorter cooldown after impulse move before you can slide.
• Changed weapon damage values (generally more damage).
• Changed zapper secondary fire to not cause shock effect.
• Changed when and how fast impulse is regenerated.
• Decreased speed of walking and crawling.
• Made it possible to combine hold capture-the-flag with defend and quick.
• Added grabstyle value -1 to make claw pull you downward if you are crouching.
• Removed dependency on a specific master server or community and made it easier to configure.
• Server browser now searches local network by default.

Changes in 1.6, compared to the fork from Blue Nebula:

• Fixed collision bug when wallrunning.
• Improved search engine for variables lets you search using multiple words, e.g. "smg name" gives you both the smgname and smglongname variables.
• Possible to specify mutators in a nicer way in commands that start or vote for matches, like "dm echo su ha" for survivor-hard deathmatch on echo.
• Improved scrollbars: You don't need to keep cursor on them.
• New look (background image, loadout menu, other menus, crosshairs, weapon colours).
• New editing compass menu options.
• Starting a game with random mutators selects fewer mutators so you don't get insane combinations.
• New dashstyle value 2 to dash when double tapping only when crouching.
• Don't send information about client computer specs to server and other clients.
• Renamed capture-the-flag mutator "protect" to "hold".
• Disabled network throttling which caused lag.
• Renamed game to Fragility.
• Moved game home directory to $XDG_DATA_HOME/fragility, default "~/.local/share/fragility".
• Removed support for Windows and Mac.
