noobshack patch notes | January 2021 | Sprint 1

Updates

I started streaming on Twitch.tv and I’ve been working my way towards Affiliate! It’s been a ton of fun interacting with the community and I’ve met some developers who have some amazing projects and also some young programming prodigies which I find super inspiring!

Gameservers

I’ve finally solved the problem of pubically listing a Source Dedicated Gameserver from within Kubernetes without use of a NodePort or Ingress! This was huge boost for me as it unblocked all of the discoverability problems I was having for, CS:GO, RUST (and even extends to MORDHAU).

I went totally overboard on RUST the past two weeks and in addition made awesome upgrades to old gameservers:

• RUST PvE Survival

• RUST PvP NO Decay (Base Wars)

• RUST Experimental (4x gathering, 1mil stack size, quick craft, quick smelt)

• Minecraft (33 players, now managed by a stateful set)

• Counter-Strike: GO (1v1 arena) was briefly online, but wasn’t really active so I spun it down for another rust server.

• Risk of Rain 2 (still not publically listed)

Leaderboards are now online! For the first RUST server (4 days gameplay) we were able to extract interesting results like the following:

• Top Slayers
• Top Deaths
• Cause of Death by Environment

Discord! I finally have been adverstising the Discord now that the RUST servers are online, which has been quite a cool way to stay in touch with people within the community.
