hello administrator i wnat code for test server can you give me for 3 hours?

Check this topic Test Server Watch 

Players report there when the test server is open to all. On your side you can check the server directly. If less than 30 players connected then it is not  open, when it is you will see many players connected up to 2k.

Well, currently the only way to check is by going to Tanki Online home page or  if you are talking about Tanki Online popularity you can check it out here, there was a topic about this 2 years ago, so for more info checkout this topic.

If I remember right, it used to be in the kkitchen online home page. They may have moved it now.

It was on the homepage until players started quitting in droves. Guess the Devs didn't want the public to see the game going downhill.

Like @ZloyDanuJI said, it increases the charging rate by 50%.

 

If you want an answer in terms of amplification time, here it is:

 

Stock Magnum has a fixed amplification time of 3 seconds. This means that it takes 3 full seconds to charge the velocity of your shot from 0% to 100%. It takes 20 steps of 5% charges to do so. It charges approximately 6.6 steps per second with Stock Magnum. With AGLM Magnum, it charges 10 steps per second which is a 50% increase in the charging rate compared to Stock Magnum. This would decrease the amplification time to 2 seconds with AGLM Magnum since it charges 20 steps at a rate of 10 steps per second. 

 

This alteration has a player-borne drawback meaning only the player can cause the drawback. The drawback is that it would be objectively harder to stop the charging at the perfect velocity when shooting a lobbed shot with the intent of hitting someone on a particular level of elevation and distance; it's harder but not impossible. 

why would anyone even want that alt?

It reduces the amount of time you’re holding the spacebar and means you can shoot faster.

Good for parkour. Sometimes. I'm not interested in it, though, let's see what answers you get...  :ph34r:

because it's one of the 2 alterations with only advantages and no disadvantages. apart from what @maryam98 said, magnum's new reload mechanics adds the leftover charging time from the previous shot to the reload time for the next shot. this means that instead of firing a shot every 6 seconds, you fire 1 shot every 5 seconds because lesser charging time means lesser charging time left over to be added to the reload for the next shot.

NOW WHAT THE CRAP does this EVEN MEAN?!?!?!!?!?!?!?

[Jeges-Masina 41]

Question: If someone kills me in parkour non-stop and I tell him to stop, but he keeps killing me, can I vote him?

[Initiate 1,306]

It means you got something free while you were signed in. Congratulations.

Technically, no, because you're not confined to that one battle. They're not breaking any Tanki rules.

Parkour is a disorganized organized battle, not an organized disorganized battle. 

 

What did I just say? Does that even make sense?

Did it happen when you were trying to do an MU?   Only time I've seen that...

[u812ic 1,629]

No.

I think what I was trying to say was...Parkour battles are disorganized because it's parkour, but organized because there are teams. 

MM battles are organized battles because there are teams, but often become disorganized. 

 

Trying to explain something said half asleep, while awake, isn't easy. 

[Kill_the_Propaganda2 684]

It's not my default alteration anymore but it used to be. It has a disadvantage; it's just that it is possible to get around it everytime it can come up. 

 

I use Reinforced Gun Carriage as my main alteration but that comes as a close second now. 

 

With that alteration, you can shoot more shots per minute in different situations since the charging time is decreased meaning even if you don't get to 100% velocity every shot, you'd still reload faster because you got to your desired % velocity faster than Stock Magnum. 

[Jeges-Masina 41]

But when someone is pissing you off because he keeps killing you and you tell him to stop ( in parkour mode ) but he doesn't, can I consider that as Provocation? Because it's provocating me that he keeps destroying me.

It does make sense, it took me a couple of seconds until I understood ( <-- Edited ) what you just said there :lol:

No, you can create a private parkour game if you want to avoid that from happening.

If someone creates a private battle and has invited a few friends to join, but there is still room in that battle, is there anyway someone not invited can seek permission to join?

one would have to be invited but he/she shouldnt join the battle, instead post the link in lobby chat. only way to join without being invited

You can’t see a private battle on the list, but if someone is given the link or invited, they can. You can’t message someone in-game and ask to join because communication between the lobby and battle is near impossible.

Okey.

I have noticed other players sharing what was once used on the old OD. Upon activation, the tanker- along with any nearby teammate- will plant a mine while activating Repair Kit, Double Damage, Double Armor and Speed Boost. Simultaneously, the progress bar will be reset, and begin counting again from 0% to 100%.

With the new Overdrives it does not allow it. How is it possible that other players can do so with their fellow teammates?
