180 server

I know its a BF2 theme but the vehicles are probably going to cause people to get upset when they lose their weapon. Training Day, they drop a tank and someone gets in it and starts to knock people into the pit, not on purpose of course. Noticed the server seems to crash every now and then. On the plus side, I do have to say it has been a lot more fun with all the new stuff and system. Already gained 3-4 lvls today where it would have taken a lot longer on v179. So far the MP5 seems to be one of the best guns to use (combat will always be my number 1). Use the lightning rod on TheEnd around wave 5 and you can keep it going for a very long time. Might be able to get a 30k score with it. Hopefully people can leave positive feed back with anything they see that needs tweaking.

We are currently working on a hotfix for the vehicles and the weapon loss, should have it adressed soon.

What I've noticed with the weapons loss, is that it happens on the default map. Retentions have nothing to do with it. Thought someone said Phantom was causing a problem and if so then lets try to remove it and see if that helps fix any issues. Not sure why it keeps crashing (map). Can we try changing the default to another map and see if that helps.

About the default maps, I try to do this every time the server crashes or we restart it. If we could all do this in the future that would be great.
What the Admin online should do after a crash and it goes to default map:
1. Have everyone re-vote a new map.
2. Login and force a random map.
3. Type in console while logged in: admin restartmap
We shouldn't be playing the default map when the server recovers from a crash, Joey once told me awhile back. Not all of our packages, and configurations load on the default map, and game play may still be undesirable.
I think I am going to make a default map that is basically a box telling people to vote a new map when they spawn. Making it obviously so they couldn't play it.

even then they will not vote! make a small box map with a trapdoor. open this door after xx minutes or seconds,
so all fall down into lava or w/e to kill everyone. after xx seconds/minutes i mean the time it needs till
everyone is able to vote, needs often more than a minute for me till i can.

What ever your problem is Amy get over it. I don't blame anyone for being able to get scores like that. After all I recall being able to scores over 50K but that was a very long time ago. Play the map TheEnd on v180 and use the lrod. The question I had for TMoney is how is 3 speed5 able to equal him running around as superspeed within 30 seconds of him playing the map. Amy your an adult not a child try actually using the persons name instead of "him".

i dont get it, if i write too much noone understands, when i finally be able to tell the point in one sentence
noone understands, too.
"dont blame "him" for doing that" is not meant for you in single person that only you blame "him", nor was "him"
especially refered to exclusively one player. its meant for every player, who has a problem with "other" players that are able to score more than 10k ("every map"), which can include you and me as well.
so, (maybe only just in my small point of view...) that way it could be also seen as:
"dont blame "goth" if he is doing THAT"...
just because someone has this or that name spreads paranoia when it comes to those players who have "more luck",
and since we have that problem atm i try to avoid adding fuel to the fire by not addressing names, thats all.
