Losing a Loved One

There is probably nothing more difficult than losing a loved one. I've been noticeably afk for some time. Life brings us these challenges, and sometimes they hit all at once. We had major storm damage earlier this year and are almost done with the final repairs. My 90-year-old mom had a stroke and a...

Thanks for your work Trench.
I think it looks just fine and I hate change.

Re: Jolly ruining a fun time.

We could make a whole thread on selecting maps in itself. Trench nailed it on the head with what happens on a regular basis. 30 mins of village later in the evening on a work night, plus an extension, people get gamed out. I'll lay down a month's salary that even if Nas had been played next we woul...

I said patch, but technically you are correct.

It would require everyone to download a patch.

Re: Mod Requests

nicely done, Tona! Agreed w/ Crash that it's an excellent map that can otherwise be exploited by disruptive gamers. Glad its main flaw will be resolved. What are folks' general opinions on the Blue flag staying in the original blue main on CTF? I personally prefer it there but am open to moving blu...

So it hasnt actually been addressed then, youre still working on it. I'm looking foward to see how it works in practice. Its a good map that gets ruined by idiots.

Re: Mod Requests

The bunker issue has already been addressed. Thanks, ~ tona Are you referring to the CTF version where red bunkers are destroyed, leaving no spawn points? If that was fixed and red had a new spawn point on bunkers CTF, that would be sweet. Thanks for the help modding those. I'm referring to the new...

Re: Christina

Wont stop c4ing flags when admins are off I caught him Tuesday on Lost Village laying c4 at the helo (Blue Main) I consider that in plain view of the flag and an infraction. Others may think differently. I warned him via RM: 6/5/2018 21:41:54 : Client: Said 'Christina - no c4 at flags please'. 6/5/...

I've started and stopped this mod several times and have now committed myself to completing it. I have most of the groundwork done. I've made inquiries into a few trouble spots and hope to h...

Re: Mod Requests

Whats the advantage with the SA-342S vs the BH? Does the BH fly really high up while the SA-342S cannot? First, the SA-342S was already a component of the map when I first opened it. I saw no reason to change that. As I said, my task was to find a way to resolve the existing issue of run-a-way helo...

Re: Mod Requests

I liked the BH gunner situation. I played that recently and a few of us had fun flying around mowing down the odd player. It isn't over powered since grails are in use. I think I prefer it put back. It forces you to use teamwork. If someone just steals the flag to waste time, one good thing about h...

Re: AFPB and sanchez and El Che

We "can" lock the thread, of course, but that's never been an approach I've personally taken with discussions. While there is a psychological "this issue is closed" component that can be beneficial, there is also an implied "anything more you might say isn't considered impo...
