I have this idea to fix the shotgun bug. I'll simply distribute the shotguns 20 seconds after the round has started. This way, I can also make auto-respawn the first 20 seconds to solve the spawn killing problem. Good solution?

there is just 1 problem left, if the humans get the shotgun after 20 sec., they can easyli get killed by the zombies. Humans cant defend themself in these 20 sec.

HOW ABOUT.

When a new map loads, the warmup is 30 seconds long, this will ensure everyone has loaded the map from previous map ending. After these 30 seconds, the map will be auto-restarted and everyone is spawned with a shotty directly, but after 10 seconds (not 20) there will be a new auto-respawn for the dead humans and new shottys given for those who didn't receive any.

Yes, this is possible.

Carl use this method is the best: the warmup is 30 seconds long, after the Auto-Restart, and after 10 seconds auto-respawn.
And PLUS 5 seconds for free roam. After that 5 seconds there is the time to randomly choose a zombie.

A good choice of spawn points (zombie does not spawn near humans) makes this problem negligible. Also there is just one starting zombie, so defense is hardly needed at the start.

yep max , that's the " mission "...
Someone near u could become zombie.. that turns it harder and much funnier..

- Sometimes people get 10 points for surviving a round when they didn't. It happened to me today.
- !et makes a player the first zombie two rounds in a row.

check scoreboard


happens quite often. no big deal really, jst sayin

[Charlie]

Another scoreboard bug, only 16 out of 25 zombies are shown on the scoreboard:




M4 and ammo stuck in air.

@ extra points:
Probably you confused this with points you get for killing the Sniper or M4 carrier, I forgot to remove these extra points. Added to Approved Suggestions.

@ ET same player twice:
Solution is already in Approved Suggestions.

@ Weapon icon not showing in scoreboard:
I'm aware of that. The client side only registers the H&S weapons, I added this to RPM 0.78. Because there is no sniper in H&S, this weapon is not registered. I'll have to enable the weapons server side with g_availableWeapons so that the clients load them. Added to Approved Suggestions.

@ scoreboard only showing 16 zombies:
The scoreboard by default can only show 16 players for each team. It was assumed by Ravensoft that servers do not exceed 32 slots. For H&S I made it possible to show more than 16 hiders in RPM 0.78: for seekers / zombies this is not possible.

@ ammo stuck in the air:
Ammo will always fall down until it reaches some ground entity. In your screenshot the ammo is actually on the ground (i.e. a player can stand at the place where the ammo is dropped).

By the way, today I noticed lots of client crashes when a new map was loaded. Probably due to the amount of messages/ commands from the server. I noticed that when there were alot of humans before the mapchange (so that the server doesn't have to put many zombies to humans in the new map) the crashes were nonexistent. Therefore, I'll make sure that all zombies are put to humans before the map change.

@ Extra points: Yes, could be the reason.

@ ET same player twice: Alright!

@ Scoreboard only showing 16 zombies: So this will be possible when you release the next RPM client?

@ Ammo stuck in the air: Ah ok, this is not a big deal anyway.

Hey

I found a bug this afternoon, lets say that only 1 human is alive and he decides to join spec or simply disconnect.. Then the round will continue until the time is 0:00. Is it possible to fix this? Zombies should automatically win if there are no humans left..

Thank you for reporting this bug! Added to approved suggestions.

Hey guys,

I've found a bug at shop. If you're a human and jump down on the patio place on shop (screen below) and if the zombie team is open for everyone already, you get stuck and stay death in zombies with seeing Hiders location





Regards

[max]

Thank you for reporting, I will try to reproduce the bug and fix it accordingly.

In the past few weeks I saw a bug 3 or 4 times: When you're killing a zombie thats stands really close to you, he dies but immediatly spawns at the very same spot. As human you'll get +1 point for killing, like it should, but the zombie does not spawn at the blue spawn.
