That is, if you use it, can you use it again immediately after on another C4 without waiting?

IF SO, why not add a small delay to it before it can be used again?  Or make it so the next time takes a couple of seconds longer?  Intuitively, something feels wrong with the idea that this device can be used over and over with no inhibiting, no wait limit, times per minute thing or whatnot.

If I'm right there's no delay. I'd like to see one to make it more fair.




Thank you Marie for the sprite.

The lack of any times-per-minute limit makes it feel overpowered. :nu:

I support your idea. It sounds like it would add more of a challenge to it. Unless of course they know the secret to c-4 then its pointless.

It's a nice idea in all but really a traitor more then likely isn't going to be wasting all of his/her credits on C-4 and then planting them in the same area, and even if they did they would probably have them more spread out and the little delay (if we add one) would run out by time he got there.
Thanks Marie
Thanks Crypto!

Actually, I have done that - planted a C4, then planted another one right near it [allowing very little delay] - the first one is discovered and disarmed, then BOOM, the 2nd goes off killing the guy who disarmed it.   :D :D :D

Even still if there is enough of a delay they can still nearly-insta-disarm without any cooldown period, which IMO does make it a little broken.

Did similar in Bank once or twice.  My favorite is still once in Minecraft where I planted C4 near the tester - since I was playing with people who for whatever reason can't hear the C4 beep, I ended up killing 6 people [I think 11 all together still alive] - and without any T buddy casualties.  :P

Well the important thing is how long the delay will last. I don't think it should be longer than 10 seconds, as that will increase the ammount of double C4s. A good place holder amount would be 3 seconds, possibly 4 or 6 might be better.

if the T is smart, he will plant C4 where the detective wont find it. no need for disarmer delay. ive been able to level half the server on 1 well placed C4 many a time.

Maybe we can have a disarmer that narrows down the wires to cut to a 50/50 selection. But that would be a bitch to create...

I've been thinking about this. I don't think anything realy needs to be adjusted at all! It comes down to how good the T is, nothing more.

Not entirely, it is a factor, but not the only one.
