Rune Central

post your RQ bugs on Shmack here. Hopefully Slot will address them.

these are 3 that I found.
- if u have sng but 0 ammo for it, u cannot shoot bombs, even if you have rocks available.

- if you are frozen, you cannot vote. (why?)

- sometimes you get stuck in the ground next to a owner's killed shambler. happens quite often, very annoying.

there was one more, but i forget it now, will post when i remember.
-T.

I don't consider the 3rd to be a bug. It's a trick to play on people to trap them with their worst enemy

If you're frozen you can immediately issue a vote to change map or turn runes off or whatever, so disabling voting ensures you can't get your way out of being frozen quicker... just my take on it...

To me they all seem like features, not bugs.

This is one of those bugs that I'm not sure it's worth fixing, or even if it would make sense fixing. The SNG is the only weapon that requires two types of ammo, rockets and nails, and since the default action is to ignore the command to switch your weapon when you're out of ammo, you run into the no ammo problem. The good news is that you can still access the bomb either by setting the default action of the SNG to its alternate (using weapon-mode while yielding the SNG), OR you can bind weapon13 or +sattack13 to a key and access it that way.



No special reason.



Most definitely a feature!

There are other bugs that should be fixed. I've mentioned them before. As always even the bugs favor the skilled player like everything else on Schmack. That's why you have games where 1 player clears the map with scores like 50 - 18 when there are at least 4 to 5 really good players out of 10 playing. And the cheats like Surfer Girl with her spikes hack... don't wait for a demo on that, just go on with my name and colors when he/she is playing and hide, you'll see the obvious spike hack. The server NEEDS bug fixes and hack elimination.

I'm not saying that Slot isn't doing a good job. We all appreciate what he does keeping the server going for us to play. Just that time would be better spent with fixing current issues then having players suggest new runes etc. and their developement.

What are the bugs that you say are present on the server?

Read the new rune ideas post. I've mentioned a couple there. Plus there are at times when I play, I lose my console esc, my weapons change by themselves and there is no way I'm changing them because I have no bind set up to change them. If I want to change weapons I have to use the number keys above the qwerty line on the keyboard. Most of the time when I'm in a battle my weapon won't shoot until the other persons does first. These never happen at IHOC or in single player game.

In the new rune thread you mentioned 1 bug about gas going through walls. BFG doesn't go through walls? I've never seen that happen before.

Weapon binds changing themselves - if you're on the menu while in obs mode and press a certain key I'm pretty sure that will rebind your keys to use a default config. Other than that, I've never heard anyone else say the server rebinds their keys. Same thing with your weapon won't fire until other person fires. Perhaps you are lagged or just not as fast as other people. If these things were bugs on the server than explain what you did just before you noticed your binds change or whatever. Sounds more like a user issue than a server issue.

Steve, meet me on e4m3 and i'll show you how BFG goes thru walls and how gas does. If you are telling me that what I've experienced on that map is just on that map, then all the more it's a bug.
