Gonna start by saying, last night when I tried to play, from the time I got in, all I heard were complaints about the rotations getting stuck, maps not getting played, other players, etc etc. Needless to say, didn't appreciate it. I post every rotation here and not a single comment is posted back so please don't complain about it during the game. Disrupting game play in this manner will get you kicked. If the server gets stuck at the end of a particular map, it is helpful to know which map in case it's simply the next map is missing from the server which does happen on occasion as maps have to be loaded each time the rotation is changed. If there's a problem with a player and no admin around, then feel free to send a PM to an Admin or Head Admin, don't post it here. *** Now, spent some time today to change up the rotations. As this server runs rotations based on the number of players, some maps were not getting played much so I set the number of players where rotations change from small to medium to large size maps. Small maps up to 4 players Medium maps up to 10 players Large maps with 11 players or more. Let me know if the player counts work or don't work well for the map size rotations. This can be adjusted to try and get the most out of the maps. It will never be perfect but only other option is to have a single rotation with various size maps. Small map rotation #1 map mp_78bathroom map mp_bog map mp_dome map mp_gardenofheat map mp_iceworld map mp_lichtung map mp_nuked map mp_ripac map mp_shipments Medium map rotation #1 map mp_506th map mp_agx_abusimbel map mp_all_out map mp_bergsnow map mp_burgundysnow map mp_courtyard map mp_db_snowypark map mp_dock_assault map mp_falaise5 map mp_ict_stone map mp_makin_day map mp_nachtzug_2 map mp_pds map mp_remagen map mp_snr_ciudad_cod map mp_subway map mp_waw_arnhem Large map rotation #1 map mp_1078brecourt map mp_aa_vosges_fr map mp_ax_brecourt map mp_boulogne map mp_contra map mp_dogville map mp_gustav map mp_kwalajein map mp_newsicily map mp_ps7 map mp_shallowgrave map mp_sps_kiebu map mp_townville map mp_vodka

With other changes, I heard there was a concern for jumping/hopping. For this, bunny hoppers will see their aim shift. However, if this becomes an issue with climbing walls and such, can revisit this. Or if I misunderstood and it's a jumping too high issue, then can resolve that. As I mentioned above, Rule added to the intro screen, no camping enemy spawn. This has to be monitored. Removed spawn protection so once you spawn, get moving. Added a few more maps to this rotation: map mp_agx_ameland map mp_agx_port map mp_amberville map mp_ambush map mp_dome map mp_burma map mp_carentan map mp_cw_brecourt map mp_kokoda map mp_little_village map mp_rostov map mp_toujane map mp_wolftown map mp_xi_shima map mp_dawnville map mp_matmata There was also a suggestion for the map cliffside. This map has had issues on some of our servers so I didn't put it into rotation however it is a stock map so an admin can load it if you want to try it out here. Thanks all for the comments and suggestions. Anything else, keep them coming...

I added this to the intro screen and a running banner for no enemy spawn camping. Spawn protection has been removed.

Rotation for COD4 Ace Mod has been changed and is now running.

Will look at adding this to the in-game banner and on the intro screen. For the anti-camping currently set, if this is not sufficient for counter to being able to protect own flag, can remove and then just have a strict rule for enemy flag camping.

Some changes made: -Gameplay is set for a 6 sec spawn delay. -Best 2 of 3 rounds wins match; rounds 10min / map WEAPON CLASSES -No Sniper and heavy gunner classes. WEAPON ATTACHMENTS -No grenade launcher attachment. PERKS -No martydom -No last stand -No flamethrower -No bazooka -No two primary weapons OTHER -No vehicles/tanks Anti-Camping -Will show icon and message to player -Time limit 2 min -Must move approx 12m These changes are now active. Will update maps tomorrow. Anything else, keep posting. This is a good start.

This will be turned on and set as suggested by Sancho to try out. The goal is to allow some own flag protection while also deter the weenie roasters sitting in the enemy spawn area.

ok, will leave off the anti-flag camping to start. can be changed if there's interest.

It's new at the moment but hopfully this will change but yes, always difficult especially when times people play vary. See how it goes to start, maybe consider a gathering on a certain day or two a week.

Can certainly give this a shot, find that middle ground for both sides. Thanks for the suggestion. Do we want anti-flag camping, meaning preventing players carrying the flag hiding out somewhere?

Friendly fire is currently off. If there's interest in having this on, can do, just say the word.

Unfortunately, anti camping is not a game mode specific setting where you can limit camping to one side or the other or within a specified range. Only thing can do here is set a time limit a player can sit in one spot and the distance that player has to move to be considered not camping. Otherwise, since you want to be able to camp to protect your own flag and avoid enemy campers, would then come down to a game rule and monitored by admins/mod/players.

I'll check but off the top of my head, don't believe this an option in this mod. There is an anti-camping option, however as noted, when there are many players, this limits the ability to protect their flag. And unfortunately this option does not have a setting say for a minimum distance. If this is what people want, will set it up. There is an option for antiflag camping, meaning the player carrying the flag has to keep moving, a certain minimum amount of distance when checked, otherwise is shown on the radar for a set number of seconds. Is this something of interest? Would certainly keep the game moving. I took out grenade launchers, heavy gunner, and sniper. This can be changed if people want those as selections. Rounds have been set to 10min, best 2 of 3 rounds wins the map.

Will see if I can find some middle ground here.

Comments noted... Will make some changes. Right now, when the flag is dropped, can be picked up by team mate or returned to base by other team player (by touch). If preferred, this can be set so that the apposing team player must physically return the flag to base. As for map list, will see what I have for a CTF compatibility list as not all custom maps have this gametype listed.

Welcome to our forums Ahole lol, and glad you enjoy the servers. Good to see new people coming around. Cheers

In reality though, we don't just use metric in Canada either, it's still a mix. In automotive design, it's metric, when you go buy lumber, it's imperial. Depends on what it is. Personally, I've always used imperial and to be honest, I don't even own a measuring tape that is metric. it's on my tool list but haven't the need yet. haha
