Flood bugs :/

[aemxr]

A few major problems with rNd Flood atm. I'll be brief.

1- Teams don't work.

You just bounce off teammates' props and it acts like there's no teams at all.

2- You can earn money with only 2 people on the server.

All you have to do is connect to the server with two different steam accounts (or use your siblings'). Then keep skipping build round and make the other person suicide. You can earn $100K+ in 2 hours.

3- Map change should be time-based.

Yeah, sucks when map changes every 10 minutes with 3 people on. I don't know why it is round-based right now.

4- You can still glitch out of the arena on several maps.

Namely fm_oldcanals (you can even go to the walkway to spectate the match) and another one with shit lighting (don't remember what it's called)

5- You don't lose money for suiciding.

You do, however for drowning.

6- -snip-

-snip- I anal raped the toolgun sorry

idk what else, can't remember

Wait, we have a flood server?

[aemxr]

What's Flood? A new gamemode or something?

...wait, isn't it that one gamemode where you try to defend a fort against zombies and Combine?

[Moo]

first of all, no the teams are not bugged, it does not work like that...
second, you cant earn money with only 1 player because that makes no sense and u can just sit there and gain money all day...
third, map change isnt a bug
fourth, maps are always fked up
fifth, thanks for pointing that out
sixth, buy new gmod

1- What do you mean by "it does not work like that..."? When I join a team, I can build a boat with everyone on my team, if we all have each other's pp. But when the fight round is going the flood script just pushes me off when I get on a prop that isn't mine, even if it's part of my team's boat.

2- What? I can just use two steam accounts with GMod and connect to flood, then keep skipping the build phase and letting one of the accounts win. This gives you money real fast, but it only works on an empty server (doubt most people would suicide so you could win).

3- Ino, I just was suggesting it.

6- I managed to fix the issue by taking *almost* all of the custom stuff out of my addons folder. Not sure what was causing the problem, I have only 15 custom addons (mostly ones I needed for build, e.g. wire and PHX)

That is a legit issue.
If you make a 1-player per IP thing, then those users who legitimately have two people playing on the same netz will get kicked.

So what would your suggestion be exactly?
I can't fathom a proper way to *fix* this.

Teams work, they just don't have the finished features. I need to work on balancing.

So what? You're cheating yourself I suppose - don't know what to tell you.

No, it was changed to round based because it's balanced.

I still need to go through most of the new maps added and prevent glitches.

You do lose money for death during the fight round only.

Not really important but a little annoying:

the voteskip build can be easily abused. Too many times people skip build just to piss everyone else off and win.

People like aemxr and hyperxtreme join the empty server and money farm by skipping build. You think I didn't notice?



Flood is usually empty now anyway, if anything the new updates seem to have deterred more players.
oh well

Voteskip/extend requires more then half of the players.. can't be entirely perfect.

Farming for cash? Whatever, ruining the game for themselves I suppose.

What are you suggesting?

I like flood but the server is always empty now for some reason. In the past there was always around 5 or so people. Now there is usually 2 or 3 people every other day.
I realise the amount of work you've put into the flood server coolz but the gamemode really seems to be dying out.

Don't sound end of the world-ish, lol.

What would make it interesting? We agreed reverting Flood monies would be kewl.

I say new weapons?

hypextreme is my brother's account (he's 10). We only share same IP because we live in same house. :'(

There is no smiley or emoticon that can describe my feelings right now.

Also, I found another problem. Apparently you can't donate more than $2000 at a time, which is annoying when I'm trying to give someone lots of money for weapons.
