Request for a script fixing one bug

[Mittsu]

The problem is the dropped weapons in Survival mode don't dissapear when the round ends causing players that spawn in the next round to be able to pick it up and have 2 primaries since the beginning. I just got to know it's possible to fix it with scripting. So basically, the script would just make weapons dissapear when the round ends or next round starts? I would be very thankful for this.

Attached. Will kill every object ( also kits and stationary guns, but that's not problem in R/S i think ). Now you should email eC, so he change his mind 'bout "fixing the bug" in 1.5.1. It will really sux on DB ( when we have similar community to R/S ).

Learn to look at the bug tracker.

I read what you wrote, but it's just stupid, when it's possible to script that, why do you "fix" it for R/S... we can't script that back for DB...

Some survival server hosters may want to keep the weapons after a round, while others may not. Scripting adds this as an option, while being built in takes time to add yet another setting to cramped soldat.ini. ^^ Just thought I would make note of that.

Enjoy your server.

well except of DB i don't really see the point of weapons laying on the ground for the next rounds. Spawned player is supposed to have 1 primary and 1 secondary weapon, if he wants to gain another primary he should do it by the battle, not some magically left weapon from previous round. And as for DB, isn't it possible with scripting to spawn weapons? I think it should be

thanks for the script by the way

It's possible to spawn weapons, but it would be hard to spawn weapons in place where it was dropped in previous round. Deleting weps after round end is much easier.

It's pretty simple to spawn a weapon in place it was dropped in the previous round.

[Polifen]

Not really when it disappear...

That's why positions of weapons will be saved before the round ends.

I forgot that it takes 5 secs after player's death to end of round, but it will still sux. For me it's favoring R/S, when we ( DB community ) have more players, more servers, more clans and probably that's not all. Soldat should be compatible backwards and it should be like "it's new Soldat! We need new scripts to fix non-bug-thing".

R/S is official, DB is not!

[Polifen]

Lol, what's nonofficial in weapon's mod + survival? What's the difference in changing weapons and realistic? It's same part of Soldat.

[Mittsu]

huh DB is that big? could you please link me to the site, im curious

Like Dusty said.
Dodgeball is not a 'supported' game mode, nor is Trenchwars, Climbing, etc. Meaning they are not prioritized in any development decisions. R/S gets priority over those other modes.

Besides, pretty sure in real Dodgeball you are only meant to start with one "ball" anyway.

[DorkeyDear]

Optional is always an option EnEsCe ^^

Yay for R/S!

The concept of 'dodgeball' doesn't necessarily have a single ball. I personally never played dodgeball myself with only one ball in real life, there were always millions (not literally, obviously ^^) of balls all over (and usually, but not always, teamed). But we always fixed the location of the balls on start.

That kind of gives me an idea related to dodgeball... having the round start with knives in the center, and people have to rush to get them, and run back and throw; bots with instant kill weapons can prevent enemies from crossing into the other side (or script, but that can only check once a second the standard way).
irl, dodgeball was played in such a way that you became a 'prisoner' when you 'died' and were held on the opposite side. if somebody threw you a ball, and u caught it, u could run to ur team's side (wouldn't work in Soldat easily/smoothly though, but u could tp instead as an option).
Just thought I would say it somewhere kuz i know i won't do it xD may be interesting to see though
