Yea I did that with the mod moving that spawn after this map loaded. Actually I thought the mover setting was still there. Its still only one spawn point however because the mapper for whatever reason chose to do it that way. I will check it out today.

Not true that once the doors are blocked you can never win? Or not true that the only spawnpoint is in the building?

There is a map where there is just one spawnpoint in the whole map for one of the sides. Inside the building. So block those doors and its game over. Might as well just eat nades and be done with it since you are going to lose anyways.

There is a huge amount of traffic between the servers and the clients. Especially certain times of day or things like millions of people streaming videos after dinner. Or software/hardware changes such as was done by one of the backbones recently. Also keep in mind AW just came out and xbox traffic competes with pc and all the rest. Along with the attrocious peer-to-peer that swallows it up and the rest of us get to suffer from. Oh... and dont forget the net neutrality thing going on. A couple major providers have been shown to be screwing around in their fights with Netflix and the 'fast lane' idea. So dont automatically say there is a mod problem when it happens. Thank you.

Laptops should be secondary computers. Always have a PC as the primary and back up the contents of the laptop once a week onto it. Not that laptops are inherently bad. Only that I cannot easily get into it and replace or upgrade failing parts. Otherwise people are beholden to whoever made it to fix it.

Welcome smeghead.

Take effect on next server restart: Made some minor range adjustments to the nuke and emp. What is the corner case? I dont remember.

Uh... no.

A couple weeks ago the range was increased by around %15. I am considering a couple possibilities for 1.46 such as making the nade into more of a short term emitter like how its used for defrosting. It will instead emit a shorter range EMP field for 15 seconds. So for an anti-car you can throw it ahead of where the car will go and it will still get it unless it turns away. Or simply throw it at your feet and keep moving forward hoping the car will still try to follow you into the field. But if they pay attention they will see that you did this, or see the flare, and go somewhere else. Yea there is a bug about the nade exploding after you die. On my list. One of those things that nobody ever told me about until recently. Or if anybody did I dont remember it. The nade will explode right after it stops moving. Like stun. For games there is no 'cure'. Just proper game balance within the parameters available with an eye towards all players.

Who watches the watchman?

The short answer is no. All you can to is set the max ping to 100 or something instead of 300.

I like the way you think.

If you do have a lot of boxes to move and many of them do weigh a fair amount maybe get one of those lifting support belts to go around your waist. I dont know what they are called.

How do you know the teacher is a woman? This is 2014 after all.

Dont sweat trying to cram too much into boxes unless transportation is a problem. Makes them easier to move since they arent as heavy. Dont load up a large box full of pots and pans so you dont have to move a 100 lbs box. Label all boxes clearly including whats inside. Or at least label the box with a good and unique title with all the items on a master list. Making it all easier to unpack is just as important as packing. Think about how you want to stack things based on how you are transporting them first so you arent spending as much effort that day doing it since you are pressed for time. Make sure all breakables are wrapped up in paper and not squished in the box. Make sure they are always stacked on top. Label boxes accordingly. If its a big move in a big truck get a dolly to move boxes. Make sure you have straps to secure everything. Dont load up boxes too high so you can still see out of the rear view mirror or you might get pulled over by a cop. If any box has really expensive or irreplaceable items know where it is at all times so it doesnt get lost. Oh and dont wait until the last day. Get stuff all packed now so the day before you move you will have a good nights rest for moving day.

Awwww. I feel all warm and fuzzy. But maybe thats just gas.

Yea I think I know what the problem is with that. It would happen in between the time you throw it, you die, but before it explodes. I have been in the middle of some other things and havent had time to see if I can upload a fix.

Interesting problem. Not sure why that would matter. Try to do it again in the future and see if this is consistent.

I think got posted a couple weeks ago. But still funny.

Maybe too big. I know everyone wants to kill the cars chasing them but must be fair.

Yes I did. And yea with this idea it will take thought on how to do it. For example the blast might be larger than the emitter. Maybe the emitter range is only 1/2 of what the blast was.

I had a thought about emp nades and cars. In 1.46 make it more than just a single explosion but behave more like an emitter that saturates an area for 10 seconds. If the car enters the area it is dead. So you can throw it in its path and wait for the car to come into the area. To be fair it has to be short lived and the little white flare might not be good enough for cars to see it and avoid it. Comments?

That one tells you how to remove the virus but there isnt much you can do about decrypting files. The only thing you can do is hopefully restore from earlier copies. Unless something is truly important that you cannot retrieve by some other means do not pay the ransom. In the future do regular checks for this kind of thing and keep backups of important files. Keep multiple copies of backups with different dates when you do it in case a back is already encrypted.

Ok goes on list of things I got last few days to check out.

Ok so its not your package but its a package belonging to someone else?
