comment Recognizing a hexagonal clickbox
Please note that I wasn't saying that your answer was bad. I think it's a good answer and a solution that has it's place. That said, I wouldn't choose this method over computing the hexagon bounds, as computing the hexagon bounds on any modern platform, as computing the bounds is a much more extensible way to do it. E.g. lets say you want to change the hexagon size -- now you have to rebuild the image? Producing a pixel perfect hexagon mask is a pain. The fact that you haven't produced one here is a testament to that, I think.

You don't need a "modded" SDK. Urban terror uses the SDK that ID Software provides. You can't edit the QVM files that the Urban Terror modders produced, as I've already said.

comment Recognizing a hexagonal clickbox
Just a note: A hexagon has 6 equal length sides. None of the images you presented actually contain hexagons. Instead, they contain 6 sided polygons. Other than that, this method works. It is likely slower than computing the bounds of the hexagon, for larger hexagons though, as this method requires more space for larger hexagons (if you want to keep per pixel accuracy). For small hexagons (and depending on the hardware), this method is probably faster than computing the bounds.

If a question is a dupe, then flag it as a dupe, instead of wasting rep and time on downvoting every question/answer involved, in my opinion.

Perhaps, but the downvote I got was before that link was posted. (Note that the link was posted Jul 4, and I posted this Jul 3).

comment What are the Elements of an MMO Game?
Actually the term "MMO" refers to games where many players can interact together in the same environment. For example, even though Starcraft 2 has millions of online players, it is not called an MMO. But I like the spirit of your answer, so maybe change it to reflect what I've just pointed out?

There are enough pointless MMO questions on this site to create a noobmmo.stackexchange.com.

I think you meant that you've seen part 4 of this question asked elsewhere.
