I suppose it is possible they were all using stealth, but highly unlikely. It was that older map with the gas station that has two stories and a roof you can get on.

Its possible there were too many hud elements. They can all add up especially in larger servers with stuff on the map that needs waypoints. So I'm changing or removing a few things that will hopefully help with that. But there are still only so many the game can handle and Im testing it out. The 'frozen' icons that are like the briefcase ones (not the minimap) count towards that so if there are alot of frozen players on your team it will have an effect. Also going to limit the number of target markers to 8 at any one time to start with. If that works ok then will bump it up, with a max of 12. If one of them dies the marker is reassigned. As for who will be assigned the markers? Thinking about that one. Ideas are welcome... not including making it so certain players are always at the top of the list.

Well damnit Sammy that throws my "algorithm" all out of whack!

That is a similar limitation as the hud assets. The icons on the minimap are objectives and use the same things as the bomb or the domination flags. There is an internal limit of 16 but that does not mean they are all available at any particular time. The g13 mod has the same game limitation issue. simplemod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Why this is so... I guess you could say that if you are close enough to get hit by a gl before it activates then its the velocity that does it. Not realistic but then cod4 is hardly realistic.

But since hardcore health is much lower... not sure. Tricky balance. edit: as for the novagas... if it disrupts your gameplay then it is serving its purpose well. Sorry but that is what your enemies are supposed to do. If its not novagas then its the betties. If not the betties then lobbing three semtex. The list goes on.

Its pretty comprehensive and unless its a really hard spot to hit it will find a way. Otherwise it wouldnt be very smart. I will check out that map and see what happens.

So if the map is having a problem with that then it would also have a problem with smoke. Some do. Okay so if the smoke and the gas are the same, then why use that 2x? And as far as the gas goes when a few people throw the gas in a smaller map the entire map goes purple. I think there are a lot of people with me that think this gas doesnt add anything to the game. Thats why i ask for a poll to vote for keeping it or leaving it out. Some things are better let out then hold it in the game, my 2 cents. bombeczka, shooter and Sonovabich 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

On small maps it forces me to change my perks to handle my intended game style. I like that. On bigger maps I can use it for area denial and to try and force opponents to go a certain route. I would hate to see a great tactical option removed for no really good reason. Players should always adjust to their environments and also be given many options to decide on what will best do that. For Eavesdrop the range is 400 units. The mod doesnt mess with it. yea but i still believe the gas shouldnt effect ur teammates..it goes back to do you want ur teammates nades to kill u? ...honestily i thought this was suppose to be changed in this new mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabun/Novagas has always affected friendlies in cod games and will remain that way in the mod also. The gas in the mod will only damage enemies. Friendlies will only suffer the shock effects. Before it damaged both, which was a bug. It was also a choice that we preferred to keep both smoke nades consistent so there was only one and the 3X perk would not apply. The smoke and novagas fx are the same in that most elements within the fx files for each are identical, except the gas is purple and it lasts longer. All fx are handled locally by the client and will not cause server lag or anything like that. But it certainly taxes video cards. If it gets too much then the framerate will suffer. It has always been that way and the 8600gts I had couldnt handle it in large games, modded or not, that had alot of smoke. simplemod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three things can be set for the server. How long it takes to recover if you are exposed, how much damage is done per second (enemies only) and how long the area remains toxic. After that time the cloud is still there but wont affect you. Maybe play around with how long the toxicity lasts. Dunno what its set at on the server.
