[MOD] Freeze (Page 4 of 7)

If your planning on making a next freeze mod release, please don't forget the laser jumps

Thanks for the explanation. That corresponds to what I was thinking. This is a great idea!

Seems to me laserjumps wouldn't be such a great improvement, because it tends to randomize gameplay a lot more and would be problematic if the splash would also cause tees getting frozen. Besides there are always too little non-laserjump servers, so it would be a shame to see the freeze mod take that path as well. It was one of the elements that damaged the instagib scene with the release of 0.5.0 and it wouldn't be good to see such problems again.

If you feel it has to be part of the mod at least turn it off by default to prevent so we'll have a good selection of non-laserjump servers. Those that really want it on their server can switch it on.

I'm really looking forward to the freezing tiles though, or more or less any sort of tiles that interact with the tees. This would definitely enable major improvements for all sorts of ideas people can come up with.

We've got a new update here:

Version 4.0 is out.

General changes:
- Some cosmetic src changes which make it work more fluently etc...

Bugs fixed:
- Some perma melting bug
- Possible server crash factors

Added features:
- Laserjumps (not suggested as it makes the game too easy)
- Tiles for making players freeze / melt after certain time. entities.png is in the first post

Please keep reporting all the bugs.

I have to say thanks to the people who suggested so many features.
The mod wouldn't have that much stuff implented without YOU!
Keep it up ^^

Ohh, i nearly forgot... please create maps with the new tiles. If the maps are working fine and matching the mod, ill add them to my servers

EDIT:
PLEASE REDOWNLOAD!
There was a little bug which is fixed now!

i dont understand. the server says it is 4.0 by tom but ppl loiter in the middle of ifreeze stage and when they hit the spikes, they respawn unfrozen. also, in the ifreeze stage can you put collision tiles beneath the spikes? it seems more professional that way

ohkay. and is "vote freeze option 1" turn it on? or off? because i tried voting, it passed, then i voted "restart 10" and nothing happened. what now?

Wait, before I can make the map, I need to know if the freeze entities are sold, or can you do though them?

Can someone explain me exactly for what the entities are for. Didnt get it when i was reading the infos at the first page

What about ppl who camp (without gettin killed by anitcamper) in melt tiles?

Great, that's even better.

So you can ether make the ice hookable, or ground non-hookable.

Thanks for getting back to me.

I personalty think the Anti-camper has some flaws.

One time I was writing a long message.
And I was frozen for taking along time.

Oh, and for the camping problem in the melt tiles, how about you can't shot wile you are in it?

Tom, pls upload the latest unix client.

I code really much currently...
We have a new version once again.
You need to know, the major numbers always increase when i overall improve the src and add big new features. Also the minor numbers are private builds which dont get released, so don't wonder why the major numbers always increase so often

If you didnt understand this then nvm xD

Bugfixes:
- Possible server crash bugs
- Melting issues (too much to explain)
- Improved spawnprotect bug fixed
- Frozens which hit death tiles dont like points anymore

New commands:
- Some new management to avoid camping on melt tiles
- A command to toogle if frozens have the tag [F]

New features:
- Referee system:
Admins can set a password for so called 'referees'. They can login in the rcon console with their password, but have limited rcon rights which are set by variables. This is to improve the server management, give trusted players access to avoid abusers, spammers, vote spammers etc etc etc and to give ALL clan members which get referee the ability to set up clanwars, so there can occur more often.
Well known and respected people can get referee access and fight against abusers on many servers.

General improvements:
The src got improved cosmeticly and performancely

You can bypass protected slots by using the referee or the rcon password aswell now.

________________

I would like respected and trustful people who are interested to message me.
I need many refs (referees) for my 'official' freeze servers.

Have fun with this new release.
