JRHockney* Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Since we haven't really done any work on seaige and haven't completely balanced out holocrap...I mean cron, what do you guys think about redoing the map rotation so it only has FFA, Team FFA, and Jedi Master? For some reason I don't have half the seige maps anymore so I have to wait the games out and we end up voting through them half the time anyways.

razorace Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I can totally understand bumping holocron to the back of the map cycle and increasing the number of maps on the gametypes you mentioned. Someone just needs to look at the server script and add additional maps to the cycle. After that, I can upload it to the meatgrinder. But, please don't remove working maps from the cycle. While unpopular, I think we should at least have the maps in the cycle, even if it's just an excuse to make people test out the voting system.

ensiform Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Going from Jedi Master to non jedi master can cause problems with force config sometimes though. IE: Non-JM wont have any force powers on the next map. and JM will have default powers because he has "too many". Edit: I'm considering giving you the revamped voting system if you want. Its all handled specially, CheckVote still is what is used, but the whole callvote, etc is all revamped and theres even an option to cancel your current vote (could add this to menu or something) but its a cmd for now. Cancel vote meaning, if you called the vote, it will terminate the vote and auto fail. Also: If the vote caller disconnects from server when vote is still active, it will auto fail to prevent auto pass from reconnect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorace Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 really. I can't imagine that happening since the player has their force powers cleared out on every respawn. :| Does that happen in basejka? Also, does your voting revamp require the client side to be alter or is it just internal changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensiform Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Doesn't require client, just internal. O.J.P. already has the fix-ups for the client-side anyway. And its only for regular votes, not team votes because i saw no point in keeping them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorace Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Does it break the team votes then? If not, I don't see any reason to decline this. Go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcatmach2 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 how about we add some custom maps to the rotation to like SJC's maps LDJ's mos eisly trap or SzicoVII's midgar v3 just so we have a little something to do while we wait for people to join Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHockney* Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 Is it possible to enable gametype voting rather than just voting through 1000 maps? That gets annoying after a while having little control over what we're playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorace Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 MC: We've never had much luck with third-party maps, but I'm not against the idea. We just need download links for any additional maps we add. Hocky: Not really, the problem with gametype voting is that it blows up the map cycle. :| Maybe that's something we could tweak in the future. I think the main reason why we have a map cycle in the first place is that the bot_minplayers and some other settings don't shift based on the current gametype.

Lathain Valtiel Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Don't even think of custom maps. I can't even get people to use the raven-made bonus maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHockney* Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 Don't even think of custom maps. I can't even get people to use the raven-made bonus maps. Yeah unless we add these maps to the mod itself, it might do more damage than good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensiform Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Midgar not a good idea, that map is bigger than OJP Enhanced itself. And takes 5 minutes to load and my mod kills it because it has waaaaaaay too many entities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanqexe Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 ixnay on Midgar for me, I hate waiting super-long for that map to load. Anyone try Neo-Tokyo? Pretty good load time, nice atmosphere, great sniping and dueling spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcatmach2 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 sure for Neo-tokyo takes me back to good times of shooting in time splitters II, thow i still bug szico for not adding the hackers base the lazy guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
