<div class="IPBDescription">how the *****</div> i was just playing a scrim on ns_nancy, all seemed to be going well, we were putting up a third hive and then turret factories popped up at all hive locations and built themselfs, shortly followed by siege cannons. what i wanna know is how the **** did they build themselfs, when all the marines were at their start? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Was sv_cheats on? If it was, anyone can enter in the code "bigdig" to have any structure (not sure about Alien structures) instantly build when placed. Was the scrim on their server?

    No, it's an exploit. I've seen our entire base destroyed with nothing but a commander and a comm chair left, next thing I know I'm spawning at some random location.

    yeah it was at their server, and they didn't appear built; they took time building themselfs, with the sparks coming out and everything

    Aye they do build just not quite as fast as marine ones .

    In short strider thier was an admin on the server that didnt like to lose and cheated his way to winning.

    hmm sparks u say with bigdig on they build in a split secound u cant even see the sparks could of been a commander exploit and here is not the place to talk about it really...

    Hmm, how fast was it? If it wasn't normal building speed, it was probably cheats on--even without "bigdig" they do build very quickly. Although, you'd need someone to build it... Where were they dropped?

    No, it couldn't have been sv_cheats, if it had they would appear built rather than being "built"

    note to everyone else dont say how to do the bug or the mods will get stressed.. well they most likely get mad at me for saying that but oh well its late and im tied. Well 2.0 is out in what 5-6 days? and its fixed a hope.

    Im pretty sure ive seen it fixed in one of the 1.1-2.0 changelogs somewere dont ask me were tho lol thier are to many of them to keep track of tbh.

    The commander bug is widely know about but is not commonly done as it will get u banned on 99.9% of servers altho im guessing seen as it was thier server and they was all admins they decided to exploit as they couldnt take loseing.

    Yes, there's a bug/exploit that allows the commander to build structures, and yes, it was fixed in early 1.1.

    If the commander is "close" enough to the TF or other building he can build it himself. The bug's been fixed and maps altered so it doesn't happen again in 2.0 i think.

    guys, there is a meta mod availible that allows commander to build anywere on the map. I dont rember where the site is to get it from but you would be suprised how many servers have it. Whenever i com on a new server i test for it.

    I was under the impression that the building had to be high up, pretty sure bottom of noname wouldnt have worked, then again I havent ever done it so.

    There is both a bug and a plugin. They are different, as one requires commander view to be close to the target, one does not.
