Any Way To Increase The Starting Res

StoneburgStoneburg Join Date: 2002-11-11 Member: 8174Members
<div class="IPBDescription">for Marines?</div> I assume it is possible to raise the starting res for Marines with adminmod. If so, can anyone here do it? I would like to see how it works out if Marines start with 150 instead of 100. So, if you can ´do that, please PM me.

    Would be ugly for the aliens I guess.

    yea, that extra 50 res could get the marines a quick upgrade or 3-4 more turrets :-/

    Errr... yes, that is the point. 50 extra res would allow for two more RT's and a shotgun for example. This is a 10vs10 server so aliens can drop for example 5 RT's 3 Upgrade chambers and 2 OC's at the start, and 5 more OC's a few seconds later. Marines can drop 4 RT's if they only get one IP and no armory. The idea is that the 50 extra res will allow the Marines to keep up somewhat.

    Anyway, I'm not interested in whether people like this or not. I'd just like someone who thinks it's worth a shot to try it, to make the plugin.

    Why not base starting res off of # of players? Keep 6v6 at the current starting res of 100, and scale up or down accordingly.

    Heh, the Aliens kind of need a faster start than the marines. The marines could move out and take a hive really quickly with those extra resources.

    Sorry if I'm not making any sense...I fell asleep and left the Air Condionter on high...I'm shivering. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Actually, if it is possible, I'd like the plugin to give 50+number of aliens in res to the Marines.

    That's a bad thing. The m arines lose alot becaus they seem to all suck. I got totally slaughtered as aliens earlier this evening. The marines just have to expand alot more than the Aliens. They can't sit at their base, or they'll be overrun by Onii and Fades.

    He's not really asking for opinions on this...


    And, did you try the website? If it has one.

    Heh, I just think it's nearly as dumb as that Voogru add-on.

    Which is precisely why he's not asking your opinion on the subject.

    Stone : I'd try PM Voogru himself, from what I understnad he's a fairly cool guy.

    I'm pretty sure you can change that with the skill.cfg, but that can cause your server to stop functioning.

    Thanks, I'll do that! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And yes, I am *still* not asking for opinions on it. I am sure Marines suck, are overpowered, it is balanced, it will ruin the server, yada yada...

    Oh, and I ment 50+aliens*10

    That would be 600 res <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> if there were 10 aliens... 50+10=60, 60 x 10= 600.

    You'd probly want to set it to 50 + (#aliens x 10). <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    50+aliens*10 = 50 + (#aliens x 10). Learn your order of operations. That's elementary level math...
