RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - Butcher - 03-11-2015
Mates, I suggest you a solution for panzer. That guided rocket is cool on BG, but if it is available anytime then it is highly overpowered and annoying, as you almost cannot do anything against it while being on a free area. However if you set it available from a certain player limit like min. 5 players a team then you will miss it.
We had earlier troubles with basterds trolling with panzer on Vietnam, I mean using panzer against men at close distances and in corridors etc.
The solution we introduced is decreasing panzer speed to 1000 (from max. 2500) and disabling guided rocket. Since we introduced this speed every kind of vehicles can be hit from even large distances, like tanks, trucks, ships even the airplane on Glider map!!! Though panzer actually cannot be applied against men in most cases, as you have enough time to hear its ignition sound and then follow its track. And trolling has almost fully gone. In this way you can enable traditional panzer (1 per team) with low speed without player limit.
Another idea: you might consider enabling tripmines (one tripmine with no full killing damage) and shotguns. That would make a larger selection in BG armory
.As regards activity, I think we should talk about willingnes rather than possibilities or tasks. In this sense I think its no use to find out strategies to make the server more active like some members should be online in the afternoon, some battle event could be organised, as I suppose you all know what should or could be done. Another thing is that the current staff cannot or does not want to afforf the time required to be online, so that the server can be attractive for guests. This situation is the same on Vietnam, we cannot do anything.
Though I think also BG must be kept, even with low number of members or guests, as there will be times, when more guests become interested and also core members take opportunities to egnage in battles. I think members should not leave server to retain a fine old member base. I actuually don't understand people that leave a home server, because other servers look or are more active. You can be a core member on a home server, even if you play lots of time on other servers. Nitmod is the coolest classic style mod I think, so just keep a good company!
Wishing you all the best!

Let's not turn bg into vietnam
RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - Thrasher - 04-11-2015
I think we should add a command on enhancemod for supremes to add or remove remote panzer and imo shotguns are OP at close range because there will be lots of people complaining that they keep getting killed by them at a short distance. I wouldn't complain but I imagine a lot of others would so I don't recommend adding a shotgun.
RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - imma - 04-11-2015
Lol Thrasher it's Nitmod, it doesn't have enhance mod
RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - Dominator56 - 04-11-2015
Don't worry about shotguns, they don't exist in N!tmod
Also you can still create custom commands, even if N!t doesn't have enhmod.
RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - imma - 04-11-2015
Well of course you can, but I was just telling him Nitmod doesn't have enhance mod, nothing about not being able to create custom commands :P

does that mean you can still make that command?
RE: ~ Beginners Ideas & Suggestions - yourdog - 06-11-2015
U can make the command but nothing Will happen because shotgun is not in the mod source code. But I did some searching and this came up.[/php]
This is poste by N!trox
N! TMOD 2.2 already includes these additional weapons:
- Bomb
- Tripmines
- Poison Gas Mines
- Poison Gas Bomb
- Throwing Knives
- Poison syringes
In terms of the main weapons, adding (or return) of the MP5 running through my head, but it will not be implemented in the same way as in the old versions of N! TMOD (it was just a clone MP40 / Thompson in a different appearance, despite what skeptics have always thought)
If you have seen servers N! TMOD with a shotgun is that admins have replaced some weapon by a shotgun (models, skins, sounds, icons of HUD / limbo) and they played with so weaponscripts to have a similar sensation.
If you have the IP of the server in question, ca interested, I'd like to see how far they could push changes
