    I like co_Core most of all the combat maps, so whenever I'm on our combat server (Cold-blooded Gorges COMBAT MOD) I'm likely to make that map happen... You were on the server yesterday though so you might have noticed already ;)

    I think I could finally fix the Spawn bug!
    I'll upload it to github now, maybe Greeds can push it tomorrow to the workshop.

    Hey guys,
    Ive done all the things that have been said in this thread and on the workshop page but there still aren't any combat servers in the list?

    Good job on the mod, it's really good fun and the simple maps (co_faceoff) mean I get fantastic performance.

    I played on one last night. It's a UK/EU server and around 18 players, I forget the name of it. edit: You have to click the "Modified" button on the server browser and then you get a yellow message saying "community content", sort by map name so you can find the co_

    Our combat server "Cold-blooded Gorges COMBAT MOD" is up and running even now, and there are players on it. Just checked via remote desktop ;)

    In server browser, make sure that ping and performance filters are not interfering, that "Filter modded" is not checked and the game filter field is either emtpy or says "combat". Also, clear map filter field. Should work. Server is located in Stockholm, Sweden, so northern EU server.

    Great server, im making ns2_co_stargate public today, i did some testing with a friend last night and everything seems to be working, there's still some misaligned textures and detail needs work but it should be playable, as soon as we have working teleporters ill add an off world area which will have two points of entry/exit to make a loop around the map.

    Would be great to see it in the map rotation if possible, it needs some proper play testing but i think it should be fun!

    Could now finally fix the fast-reload bug so fast-reload will be enabled in the next release, again.

    I though you are using the teleporter entity that Jim West made??

    There is a bug where some of the alien team can not spawn and are forever waiting to spawn. This is highly evident on ns2_pulsecombat but also at least on ns2_co_core to some extent. On pulsecombat (full 18 slot server) as many as 4 of the aliens seem to not spawn at all. Possibly happens on other maps also, but these I'm sure of. Sometimes going to RR and back will fix this, but often times not. I would hazard a guess it has something to do with the spawn points in the maps as it seems to be made worse in different maps. but possible other reasons might be the spawn camping that is widespread in at least pulsecombat.

    EDIT: And that burning onos... It is very very very annoying and doesn't add anything positive to the game. It will be gone soon, yes?

    This bug should be fixed after next workshop upload, the game sometimes forgot some spectators.

    spawn bug will be fixed ( I think it is but needs testing )
    burning onos will be removed because its only a halloween special
    I think there is a bug with focus it didnt work for me when I played today.

    I just downloaded the mod from github to test the teleporters and they seem work quite good, though for some reason i get an error in the console which says "server : 14.735985 : error: teleporttrigger a destination not found" for both a and b, the number keeps getting larger so im guessing its just the time?

    They also seem to work ok with aliens and the exo but i noticed you don't get the any phasegate effect like you do with marines, also i don't know if it was just chance but the burning onos appeared and seemed to use one to get across the test map quicker and attack the hive! :P

    One other possible issue is if you stay in the teleporter after you appear you don't teleport back like with phasegates, you have to leave and enter again, i don't know if this is to prevent accidental teleport but a delay might be better as it's a bit weird to sit in the rings and not go anywhere.

    If it's possible it might be nice to have a time interval setting for the transport rings, this way i could time it with the effect, which i think would be pretty cool, of course if it's too much trouble that's ok.

    I setup a server for this mod and have all the different combat maps running on it - "NS2Servers.com Virginia #1 | Combat" is the server name for anyone who is interested.

    Thanks Tempest! always happy to see more servers running combat, I would recommend that you restart it once a day to insure that you have the latest version of combat and the co maps as we tend to update often but this might change in the future once we release only big updates.

    We're just about ready to publish a new version of Combat, removing the Halloween Onos (server ops will still be able to get to him via a secret console command!) and including a whole host of bug fixes and enhancements. I wanted to publish it from where I am currently (I'm not at home today) but I'm having no luck, so I'll publish it either late tonight when I get in or early tomorrow morning.

    I'll do a post outlining our next priorities once we've managed to get the newest version out the door! Have a nice weekend all!

    OK the label waitDelay ist now included, so you can time it to your rings.
    That was a bug, should be fixed now.

    Thanks, i've done some testing and it doesn't quite act how i was thinking unless im doing something wrong, is the delay based on when you step into the trigger?

    If so im not sure how i will get that to sync up with the cinematic, is it possible to make the delay based on game time so that as soon as the map loads and the cinematic plays the teleport runs at same rate?

    I do like the old style as well, i thought setting delay to zero would turn it off so it acts like it before but it went crazy teleporting me and i couldn't escape! :P

    Edit: after a bit more testing it seems the old style is not needed, teleportation at 2 seconds appears to be instant anyway...

    Just updated server to the new build and it is causing all sorts of hitching issues. Can really only play 1 round before it becomes a slide show.

    No errors in console - The tickrate stays at 30 but the animations and movement becomes hitchy very fast (10-15 minutes into a game).
  • JimWestJimWest Join Date: 2010-01-03 Member: 69865Members, Reinforced - Silver
    Mhm maybe somethings wrong with the fast reload and focus animtion thing, whats the ip of the server,
    can't find it in serverbrowser (browser is to slow)
  • invTempestinvTempest Join Date: 2003-03-02 Member: 14223Members, Constellation, Squad Five Blue
    I took the server down but I will put it back up so you can take a look - type connect ns2s2.ns2servers.com in console to join.
  • invTempestinvTempest Join Date: 2003-03-02 Member: 14223Members, Constellation, Squad Five Blue
    Took the server offline again as it quickly becomes unplayable.

    I run the TEST server. I'll keep it around as long as TEST members enjoy it.

    Wondered why the whole server was lagging terribly.

    Running 20+ players only uses about 1GB of ram and around 25% of two cores. Was working fine yesterday and this morning.


    Also is there a way to increase the levels to say 15?
  • JimWestJimWest Join Date: 2010-01-03 Member: 69865Members, Reinforced - Silver
    We will let the max. lvl at 12, but will include a command that admins and server operators can change it every lvl,
    that will be saved in a cfg then.

    I have n clue why the server is lagging, at last build, everything worked fine. Will work on that to find the problem.
