BAR Lobby

BAR Lobby is a new WIP lobby for the RTS game Beyond All Reason. It hopes to boldly go where no Spring client has gone before, providing a more streamlined experience, with good visuals and UX being high priority. The ultimate goal of BAR Lobby is to replace all other lobbies when it comes to playing BAR. If a significant amount of people don't wish to use it because of reasons such as functionality or speed, then this project is going very wrong.

Functionality and Goals

  • Provide functionality for everything related to BAR. Campaigns, Missions, Multiplayer, Replays etc
  • Simple and intutive codebase, lots of documenation for contributing
  • Steam integration, automatic account creation and login
  • Smooth, seemless, fully integrated downloads. Content should be preloaded when sensible
  • Communicate entirely via Teiserver's new protocol, Tachyon. No support for the legacy SpringLobbyProtocol
  • TLS only, no unencypted comms

Recommended Environment
