Webs Not Appearing?

Plasma · April 2003

Sometimes when im gorging I will use webs, yet they dont show up - are they really there? I cant see them (but hear the sound of them being put up, and dont receive a 'Too many webs here' message either).

Anyone experience the same thing?

Archzai · April 2003

yes... even if i use "hive sight"... "alien flashlight" i still dont see it glowing either... is this a bug.. if it is i hope it is addressed in v 1.1 ... becuase it sucks to end up webbing a place that has already been webbed and then getting the too many webs becuase u hit the server max and end up not being able to web other crucial areas....

It happens to me often. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Flayra's probably already fixed it for 1.1 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Are you sure you are webbing properly?

You need to web from wall to wall for webs to show..... i.e. you hit a web on a wall, and then you hit a web on the opposite wall to create a strand of web.. You can also do this on the floor.... you web one part of the floor, then the other, and providing the two web pods arnt too far apart a stealthy strand of web will appear.

Another point is that you cant web extremely long strands, however their length is pretty long.. e.g. you can make a strand between the floor and cieling of powersilo, which is a good counter for jetpackers.

If you are webbing like this already then sorry, but i hav never had any problems with webs showing up...

on the NS_Siege 24/7 server this bug is common, what ive noticed is that after a few minutes all of the webs placed suddenly come into being, i think ive seen a marine get caught on one too, apparently he couldnt see it either <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

seems to me that they really are there, just invisible for a time.

Yes, and 1.1 will also provide a cure for disease, eradicate poverty throughout the world, *AND* tell us the secret to life!

or maby you just ran out of webs?...

Redford · April 2003

there's a bug involving webs and the "alien flashlight" that can cause them to become invisible if you lay more webs while you have the flashlight on.

tseepra · April 2003

Maby you hit the maximum ammount of webs for you team, or for that area.

toggleeditps type that in console twice and it works again for me, or press F twice

TacOne · April 2003

From my experience, it seems that the webs are invisible/not there if you lay the webs using the alien flashlight.

Turning the flashlight off has always worked for me, anyhow.

Turn on cl_autohelp, it will let you know if you have "run out of webs". There is both a locational and an overall limitation.

Sephiroth2k · April 2003

stonebrg, that's what i thought it was at first, that he had ran out of webs, but more and more i'm noticing bugs with the flashlight. like if i make webs with it on, they do not appear...

eggmac · April 2003

It's not only the flashlight, it has happened to me several times when I tried to web a place but the webs didnt appear (with hive sight off). Never the less, if I tried to web another place later it did work, so it wasn't the web limit. (No marines got webbed in the mean time).

So, as I said, it has happened to me often and it is quite annoying.

42, duh.

Yes, it is annoying, especially if you hear that there are jp/hmg marine coming and you try to web an entrance, but nothing happens.

Once i was shooting the entrance in power silo hive, but i didn't see any webs between the walls, but fade behind me did.
I thought that the web limit has been reached (i have setted cl_autohelp to 0) and i was going to leave the room, when that fade said i should shoot some web near the roof area too.

I shooted some web there (without been able to see any web there) and the fade was like: "good". <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

If your webbing and you have your flashlight on they dont appear, this used to happen to me when i was a newbie and 3 ppl in a server were nice enuff to tell me <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>
