Yes? What do you want to point out? The first post mentioned a certain "Rule" that happens in certain conditions. That "Rule" concerns staff. You made a suggestion about "Inside-info". What would be the point? That info would just get spread around Zone like wildfire. I then mentioned the stupid decision made by staff that "Inside-info" is inside-info.

The point is developing, not going off topic.

If you want to take a jab at me, do so by all means in PM. I get the impression you want to get back at me for "Something".

2. At the start, type /kick <acc name> about 20 times, which would take about 1-2 mins and I wouldn't even be able to watch to make sure people are following rules.

But I do agree Typhoon, it is a bad rule.

Or you can have it automatically do so via script

PHP Code:


			
//This would go in the dropship

function onActionServerSide()
  {
  if (params[0] == "sweap") {
    serverr.sweap = tokens[1];
    player.chat = "Event weapon set to: " @ serverr.sweap;
    for (pl: allplayers) {
      if (pl.guild != "Events Team") {
        if (findweapon(serverr.sweap) != NULL) {
          pl.chat = "You already have the event prize:" @ serverr.sweap;
          setlevel2("blah.nw",30,30);
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerChats()
  {
  if (player.guild == "Events Team") {
    if (player.chat.starts("/setweapon")) {
      tokens = player.chat.tokenize();
      if (tokens[1] != serverr.sweap) {
        triggerserver("gui",name,"sweap",tokens[1]);
      } else player.chat = "Event weapon is already set to " @ serverr.sweap;
    }
  }
}
function onPlayerEnters()
  {
  if (serverr.sweap != NULL) {
    if (findweapon(serverr.sweap) != NULL) {
      player.chat = "You already have the event prize:" @ serverr.sweap;
      setlevel2("blah.nw",30,30);
    }
  }
}

And...

PHP Code:


			
//This would go in the map itself

function onActionServerSide()
  {
 if (params[0] == "rweap") serverr.sweap = NULL;
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerEnters()
  {
  if (serverr.sweap != NULL) {
    if (findweapon(serverr.sweap) != NULL) {
      player.chat = "You already have the event prize:" @ serverr.sweap;
      setlevel2("blah.nw",30,30);
    }
    triggerserver("gui",name,"rweap");
  }
}

Or something like that....

@ Gambet (Quote didn't like me)

But like I said, its hard to find someone who will do something for Zone and see it uploaded. If its just a new command for ET's I don't think it would be. To be honest I don't understand a bit of the script there, would that scripting actually work to perform this task?

Gambet · #46 10-19-2006, 03:20 AM

It would allow you to set a string that reads what the prize for the event will be. When you set the string, anyone in the dropship that currently has that weapon will be warped out to a designated level. Anyone that enters the level after you set the string that has the weapon will be warped out of the dropship. If anyone lags in and gets into the map by lag or something, the map would warp out anyone with the weapon designated in the string to prevent anyone from participating that has the event prize already. Once people warp into the map, the string is reset, so that you can set it again at another time.

You do have a fine idea, but I can't really see Stefan adding it in. It would also need to be set so ET's can enter with their weapons.

The script doesn't count ETs, so it would allow them inside if they had the event weapon or not.

Rehosting isn't an option seeing as all the sucky players are up to date with this rule.

I'm not gonna spend 500+ dollars to win every damn event I go in. Bill gates doesn't even have that kind of money.

This is looking less and less like you're trying to remove a stupid rule and more and more like it's about your ego.

bahamutstevetff · #57 10-21-2006, 02:00 PM

the best thing should be that if someone who has an event weapon wins, just cancell the event, less sucky people will have event weapons.

Exactly.

No, it's the fact that they run from everyone until I kill the rest of the players, then come running to the ET saying that I already have the weapon.

Typhoon and IXI don't like it because its impossible for them to win. I don't care what anyone says about cokcyness, ego whatever, if Typhoon or IXI are in an event, they will win. They shouldn't be punished for being better then everyone else.

You're only not on their side because you know that Typhoon made this thread because you auto-won bluepistoles because of this dumb rule.

With this rule, a player only needs to get to the final two. It creates more teaming, more hiding and obviously more peoples (hense this thread). It needs to be changed, IXI's idea of just canceling the event was nice.

Event items aren't made for "pros" to have, they're made for people who win events. I don't even like Zone's hosting system. I'd rather have people go through a spar tournment but it's kind of hard to setup.

And thats why the kicking function was made to Kick those cheaters and maybe when u go on tag u see all the nicks like when u press n to see hiders?

bahamutstevetff · #64 10-21-2006, 08:55 PM

i <3 jesse, john, go change ur nappies or dypers depending on your nationality. god like if some1 who already has event weapons wins then it should just be tough luck. cuz u didnt win, you didnt come out on top in an event so you do now win.

Then it seems you are the problem. If a good player wins an event item, fair enough. But taking part in an event for the same item will make it a more likely possibility that he will win again. So people hide from the good player because he has obviously won before, and they take advantage of it by hiding.

If people with the event item didn't play, then people wouldn't hide, because the amount of good players would deminish. Man, that's a sketchy explanation... I hope he doesn't use "TEHN IT'S WHO SUCK TEH LEEST"

bahamutstevetff · #66 10-21-2006, 09:16 PM

so people wouldnt deserve event items, honestly the event system on zone is so jewed.

Yeah, and making it so that you can only play if you don't already have the weapon is a perfectly good solution to this. The fact that you're rejecting this solution shows that you aren't really trying to change the current system (which is indeed a bad system) but just trying to monopolize event weapons.

I'm tempted to force IXI on so that we can both dominate the map and make it so they HAVE to rehost.

*Thinks back on that event* no, you lost, you came second, you auto won. Typhoon beat you. I remember this well from everyone afterwards complaining to me that you get the prize anyways and me having to explain this bs rule.

Vulcan is the cheerful viper tamer. I don't think its really important. The event outcome could have changed if that happened.
