[Server] Capture the Flag Server

[Gael de Sailly]

I tried you map, gimp, and taken a screenshot.
EDIT: I just noticed that you have already taken screenshots, so I added yours in the spoiler. My screenshot is the last one.

Nice map, very close to xerox123's Fractal map, but with apple trees.

I think we should start a new forum topic for map propositions. We are mixing up maps and gameplay issues/comments and it's becoming annoying to follow.

Eyecandy?

It would be a pity to destroy those building just because we can - what's the point in doing that anyway? :)

maybe limit apple stacking to 20? ANAND: i forgot there names, nxt time im playing on CTF ill write down their names.

This is an interesting idea indeed. Limited resources will encourage the players to come up with new strategies to avoid being killed, as they can't rely on their 3+ stacks of apples any more.

You have not yet seen me play ask annad Im really bad totally
jk i can beat ANNAD easier than other players I believe i beat grandolf bob12 EZ PZ
plus i can beat waterbug i use to better back in the old days though

Goodness, your arrogance is second only to Raider4! XD

No offence, but I advise you to go learn humility from Waterbug - he never speaks out of turn, and when he does say something in chat, he's very polite and humble.

Also, please spend more time in making your forum posts more understandable - right now, none of your posts make any sense to be honest. :)

And for the 359th time, it's ANAND, and not ANNAD!

I found a floating jungle that i thought would make a nice map

I'll try to find time to explore your map - thanks for the contribution, and we'd love to see many more of them. :)

rankings dont determine whos best, just the most active, and waterbug isnt single best, me, bob12, anand, and iceagecomeing have all beat him before.

Very true - the rankings table is not the end of the world. Also, it would be nice to see different ranking tables for K/D, Scores, Team-work, Spawn-killing, Responsible In-Chat, etc.

I think we should start a new forum topic for map propositions. We are mixing up maps and gameplay issues/comments and it's becoming annoying to follow.

We can create a new topic under 'Maps' forum in the Board Index once we get around 10-12 individual map submissions, and post 'em all to that topic. It would also be easier to find and download specific maps, which is not so easy to do right now...

I want to mete PETE, and kill him, or i might die but i can always use my patented method: sneak-attack :P
(Raider4 is indeed arrogant, before each match he goes on how hell destroy everyone, unluckily for him that round i already had my warm-up, MWUHAHAhahahahahaha :P)

I think I've never seen such an inconsistent post. It looks like you say you're bad to supposedly allow you to boast unscrupulously.

It's funny to see how much the averagely experienced players can be more arrogant than the true champions.

i wish there was a way so that pros were divided evenly across teams, just now i had the worst few matches, noone cared to help noone put their extra swords in team chests, and one match there was noone good on my team and i got slaughtered by poistron and loulicats as all i had was a steel pick, noobs stole and hogged all the swords :(

at least you were able to join the server :P
it's always full at any time of the day...

Looking at his previous posts, PETE has really got to spend some more time on making his posts readable - it took me 5 minutes to barely understand his last post, punctuation would also help with this big-time... -_-

That's true - It seems like there are always 29-31 people playing ATM! I can only join because of the user-limit skip, RIP my countless alts... :(

It's becoming quite hard to keep on top of this topic, so I created a topic for them.

I've quoted some posts in here, sorry if I've missed anyone

Thank you rubenwardy - this eliminates the confusion as to where the new maps can be uploaded.

Well you wouldn't generally destroy them for no reason, as part of the game it may be required though. If TNT, etc. ever make an appearance, a map with alot of destroyable structures would be fantastic.

Even ClobberXD? :(

Whats the cutoff for skipping the user limit anyway?....

[ANAND]

Whats the cutoff for skipping the user limit anyway?....

It's 10000 score at present. But since 10000 is a constant value, more and more players are eligible for user-limit skip, essentially nullifying its benefits. IMHO, It should be like so - a player is allowed only if player figures within the top n ranks.

My primary acc and my top 2 alts can skip the user-limit, but what about the other 8? :P

Why did you ban me forever after the two days ban?Ruben face to face,I know you hate me but why ban me forever when I didn't fdo anything

[rubenwardy]

You swore persistently after warnings. I then issued a short ban, which you then evaded

[|FGH|]

but i'm not the only one who did that,but you only banned me,plus bans are useless

[PETE]

it's so great when we the people, just take these apples for granted. :/

[PETE]

Maybe they should add different kits you can choose what ever kit you want like apple kit xD
knight, defender, sniper, miner etc.
There should be hub at the base where you can choose a kit. but they should make a cool down new kit per death and you can't drop stuff to make things fair.

PETE: rubenwardy has already planned to implement something similar to your idea, wherein players can classify themselves under player classes like warriors, builders, etc. and accordingly obtain different items when joining / re-spawning.

Example:

• A 'Builder' will get pickaxes, cobblestones, and planks by default.
• A 'Warrior' will get swords, guns, and apples, by default.

A player will also be able to change from Warrior to Builder, or vice-versa, but how to enable the same is not decided yet. It would also be nice to see a distinction in the skins of players from different player classes.

But thank you for sharing your idea though.

Gael de Sailly: Loading .schem files into a world takes decades (it's a herculean task for my frail desktop), and therefore I'm unable to rectify the clipped bottoms in 2 of my initial maps. 2 new maps are coming up in the next couple of days tho... :)

Change the world backend to dummy - see the readme for instructions on this (ctf_map or the main one, in fact)

Change the world backend to dummy - see the readme for instructions on this (ctf_map or the main one, in fact)

There are no guides in both the readme's, and no search results on the forum - how do I change the backend to dummy?

My debug.txt regularly mentions that my debug.txt is outdated or something like that - is that related to the above issue?

EDIT: Will just changing the 'backend' setting to 'dummy' in world.mt do the job?
EDIT: It has - thanks for the help!

[|FGH|]

Nice server I really like it.You should add more guns and more powerfule guns

[ANAND]

rubenwardy - Shall I add the following to all my maps' .conf files henceforth?

• team.1
• team.1.color
• team.1.base
• team.2
• team.2.color
• team.2.base

Quick question When 0.5.0 comes out, will there be lag backs still and will the older clients be disabled on the CTF server?
Also, there is a player called yuo he is hacking diamond swords (starting off with diamond swords) at starts of games which creates an unfair advantage what if he is able to mod more into his game and be overpowered breaking the server?

yuo isn't hacking that is actually a bug, many people do it.
