Hey mates, today I had the opportunity to start Xp and skill farming on the re-launched BG, it was fine to revive old experiences!
Let me post some suggestions and remarks:

- map with the two destructible guns: bots waypoints missing
- SW Oasis: Axis spawtime should be much longer, currently almost instant spawn there
- killed medics/field ops: number of thrown medipacks/ammo packs might be 3 insted of 2
- medipacks/ammo packs throwing distance might be much longer - currently the medics and field ops actually drops packs in front of him

I wish you a good work and many visitors and members, mates!

Thanks for sharing your suggestions/tips Butcher!
I am aware of multiple flaws in the current settings, and the waypoints that are missing.

We'll try to to upload everything and make changes as soon as possible!

The new server seems to attrack alot of visitor and new members. That is great ofcourse. Thing is that the server crashed 3 or 4 times today. Approximate one crash each hour. Besides this, the map rotation is also stuck. Imma was ingame but could n't do anything about it because he doesn't have RCON.
I hope this startup-problems are solved soon.

Yeah, I see this is actually a test run, so let us help with findings.
I think generally all spawn times should be longer, where ofc the defenders should be some longer. Now it is hardly possible to get through.

I see country flag database is out of date (as several country flags are not displayed), you can install the latest one from here:

Just replace GeoIP.dat file on server with this one.

What about map voting in the intermission?

Tripmines with lower damage (one tripmine not killing) can be considered? 2 pieces...?

I did not check, guided panzer rocket is available? I'd love it! :P

I agree about map voting in intermission.
However, no tripmines is the best :P

Bots: I see bots are quite weak now and they are not doing mission goals. I don't know bots settings in Nitmod or generally in depth, but I suppose settings might help.
Maybe the latest Omnibot version should be installed, which is 0.84 and can be downloaded from here:http://omni-bot.invisionzone.com/index.php?/page/index.html
If it does not wordk, then the version 0.83 might still work.

I suppose bots level might be set to 2, with aiming and moveskill levels 4 and 3 respectively. This is some harder, but still easy to catch and not brutal aiming.

Set default bots number to 4...?

Today I noticed that when the main entrance on the map Marakech streets 2 is destroyed the voice over completly loses his mind. He calls it for like 5 times.
I guess we can understand it after just once, maybe change that ?^^

Yeah, I've noticed the bots are rather dumb, no sense of objective whatsoever
Just now I was on supply, on allies, and once the gate was blown they kept going from second spawn to the first (????), idiots

[Kriz]

Aint the bots supposed to be dumb and easy??
It's called Beginner lol.
