There has been many complaints about spawn killing on this server, so here are the changes I made. Please post your feedback after playing the server

 

 

I change the spawn protection time from 4 to 3 secs

 

I changed it so there is sign that shows if you are under spawn protection and how long

 

I changed it so if you shoot someone under spawn protection you will be punished, don't know how exactly 

 

I changed the range of spawn protection from 100 feet to 200 feet

 

I changed it so your weapon is disabled when you are under spawn protection

 

I changed it so it will show at the top of your screen when you are under spawn protection

 

I changed it so you are invisible when you are under spawn protection

well the only thing I see that's not good , Is if your air strike try's to kill someone in a spawn protection , you lose you gun, I assume the same thing will happen with a chopper, And the fact people just turn up behind you ..and your dead..

 

But that being said It doesn't matter to me,,one way or the other..At least some people will get some kills..

Yeah that isn't good, I'll see what I can do to fix that with the airstrikes. I will continue to tweak things but in the end we need to fix the spawn killing issue some how.

So far the spawn protection seems to work but there are a couple minor issues.

1) If you airstrike someone in spawn protection it takes your gun indefinitely.

2) If you kill someone in spawn protection it takes your gun indefinitely.

 

I don't think that your gun should be taken permanently but for like 10 seconds or something to that effect.

Other than those 2 bugs it is working ok.

Seemed to work pretty well yesterday, couple of comments.

 

1) 3 seconds isn't long enough for spawn protection

 

2) You sometimes spawn in an area that is very dark like a tunnel, and you can't turn on night vision until out of spawn protection.

I agree with Hijack... I liked it better before. Sometimes there was some spawn killing but I've never experienced abused... of spawn killing :)

You work to hone your skills and now you must wait to get your gun? Please put it back the way it has been for years.

I forgot to restart the server last night after I made some changes.

 

Spawn protection is at 3 secs

Your still invisible

no more disarming you when are under spawn protection and using airstrikes

Spawn killers are always a problem and I hate them with a passion. Go play in a shooting gallery. However spawn protection is the only way to deal with them. To be fair a big part of that is maps. If spawns do not have immediate free access to open areas its pointless.

After 10 years of the game working just fine I find the change disorienting, annoying, and taking me "out of game" almost every spwan.  Hate it.

Everything should be the same as before now except your invisible. Which you shouldn't notice any difference. Is something still active that I said I removed in my earlier posts?

It has a cool new feature now where if I'm reloading a weapon I can still fire, very neat!

it makes u feel like ur cheating cuz while ur invisible u see every thing and knowing  u have three 3 secs to get into position to kill an unsuspecting player, is just not right. I hate it too. It takes out some of the realism that the game appears to process which now really makes it more like a game . I hate that too.  U can't do this in real war.
