It must be given freely. In abundance.”

Re: Check point system Converted maps
Just wondering about Sun Pyramid and Vyper - they've been deleted from the server list, but the updates are not available (the other maps have been updated, so I guess they just aren't set on the list?).
Thanks
Also, you forgot C&C Elfy

Decision to remove blocking volumes not a good one. You can exploit to pretty much anywhere now and hinder the progress of people who have traveled legitimately.

Re: Check point system Converted maps
There is a problem with Sunpyramid, it is impossible to complete obj 2, when you go to the ramp to 2nd obj, the first checkpoint stops you...
Removed from maplist until fixing.

Its all about the game, and how you play it
All about control, and if you can take it
All about your debt, and if you can payit
Its all about pain and whos gonna make it...

Most maps don't have this problem. However I'm aware of a few that should be fixed. Derby, coaster ... Pretty much all emp maps. Any others I'm missing?
Also this system now gives a chances for people smart enough to take advantage and get to an area that is only going to be useful to prevent someone from getting obj. In time I have a feeling this will work its way out and people will become aware and it will just add complexity to an already extremely easy game type.
As far as how I intend to fix these problems.. I plan on placing checkpoint volumes for future objs in the places where people are exploiting. This will make it so that if they do short cut which usually requires doing some kinda jump they will hit the volume that's in the air and get reset. Already did this for some maps. When I was converting them I tried to be tactful in what blocking volumes could be removed with little to no ill side effects. I'm pretty sure the maps your talking about are the emp maps.

Re: Check point system Converted maps
Wow your title of "filthy cheater" makes this comment seem so useless haha.. butCalypto wrote:Be warned that this is a change in gameplay that many will not welcome.
I agree its not something most will welcome. There are a few maps that this is happening on most of which like I said are emp. EMP is cool but on the other hand it can be one of the most annoying weapons in the game(whole different discussion).
Let me make this clear as some how I haven't managed to make it clear.
I intend on fixing the maps where blocking volumes that have been removed are causing unintended side effects. Just give me some time. I just did the initial checkpoint implementation for all the maps. I have yet to actually see how it works in game play with a full server. I hear lots of cries and whines from those exploiting and getting sent back. So at least that part is working well!
Side thought.. since this game type is "RACE" maybe something like a time limit can be added to the race mod. You have x amount of time to reach a checkpoint. If you don't reach a check point by x amount of time passes your weapons become locked. This would fix the annoying people that skip ahead and camp/annoy players from previous objs or other camp spots and also prevent ragers/campers that intend to do nothing but sit outside spawn and camp.
