Update v1.0.1.3

26 Nov, 2021

CS2D 1.0.1.3 is now online on Steam and as standalone version! There is a new fancy gun: The tesla coil (thanks to SQ). The only way to get that gun is via custom maps or console commands / scripts. Moreover there are some fixes and Lua API improvements.

Changelog

CS2D Update 1.0.1.2

16 May, 2021

CS2D 1.0.1.2 is now online on Steam and as standalone version!
This is just a minor update without new gameplay features.

I decided to drop the MacOS support because it means too much trouble to maintain that without having a real MacOS device. Moreover MacOS is now 64 bit only and I would have to try a few things to get that working with CS2D which is still 32 bit.

Changes

FIXED -pw / -password command line parameter did not work
FIXED Lua command io.isdir returned false for all paths ending with "/" or "\"
CHANGED "exit" and "disconnect" now do nothing and only show an error message on dedicated servers
CHANGED voice chat: changed text *dead* to *DEAD* and *spectator* to *Spectator*
ADDED Lua hook "disconnect" (after a player fully disconnected and left the server)
ADDED Lua hook "voice" (when player uses voice chat)

U.S.G.N. Master Server Moved

15 Jun, 2020

The U.S.G.N. master server (used for the server list and account login and verification) has been moved to another server. This was a necessary step to ensure best stability and security in future.

For Regular CS2D Players (Steam)

Your CS2D client will be automatically updated via Steam.

For CS2D Server Owners

Unfortunately we can't update the config automatically for you.
Please follow these steps to adjust your configuration:

stop your server/CS2D
open sys/usgn.dat (may be in another folder depending on your server config)
edit the first line to:
81.169.236.243|usgn.de
save the changes to that file
restart your server/CS2D

Warning: If you don't adjust your config other people may not see your server anymore and can not connect to your server while using an U.S.G.N. account!

For Non-Steam CS2D Players

Please follow the same steps as server owners to adjust your usgn.dat file.

Sorry for the trouble!

1 Year On Steam Anniversary

15 Nov, 2018

One year ago CS2D 1.0.0.5 has been released on Steam!
Let's celebrate this with some numbers! Hooray!

Some numbers

We rolled out 2 full updates and several patches since Steam release
nearly 1 MLLION free CS2D liceneses have been granted on Steam (991,840)
862,870 people downloaded and started (recorded play time) CS2D on Steam
4,931 people reviewed/commented the game on Steam
89% of these reviews are positive (leading to a "very positive" rating)
Max peak simultaneous Steam players: 1,440 (Nov 18, first Saturday after release)
Simultaneous players on Steam last 2 weeks: min 10, max 109

CS2D does not have any internal tracking so I don't know the overall download numbers.
Given that it has several 100k downloads on various download pages (e.g. >500k on Chip.de alone) we can safely assume that the game has been downloaded (and most likely also played) by MILLIONS (plural!) over its lifetime.
This is a great success and I'm happy and very grateful that you - players, fans, supporters, developers, map creators, skin creators etc. - made all this possible! ːsteamhappyː

Update planned

I'm also glad to announce that there will be another CS2D update soon. We are trying to do it this month but we can't promise anything.
