WTF! is this?
« Reply #15 on: June 04, 2006, 03:12:02 PM »
Shevy, sounds like a new player to FSO, I don't recognize him. He should receive a verbal warning. Being as his actions did not result in any additional planes being lost for the allied.


Anyone have his e-mail address?

Copy looks like this was overlooked. Spits should not have been enabled at 15.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Spits were not enabled at A15, I just checked the tables that were used last Friday and the spit 9 was not enabled at A15, Unless someone made a change after I loaded the tables.:huh

But I wasn't there so it wasn't me.

Dunno about this, but did his squad put up a mission?

I throw this in because there is an undefined bug I have seen several times with missions.  Recently in FSO my squad flew typhoons and all joined the posted mission.  One plane upped with bombs while the others all had the drop tanks that were defined by the mission.

On another occasion (really weird), I joined a hurricane mission and launched in a 110.  This stuff happens.  There are other examples from other times.  It's rare but you better believe it happens.
I get really really tired of selective realism disguised as a desire to make bombers easier to kill.

At least he didn't shoot down eight others after re-upping.

Gentlemen,
This member is on my squad and he was registered with us for the event. He was looking forward to flying with us and hasn't flown in any of these events. Well, maybe one.... i'm not sure.

In any case, I will be sure to discuss this with with everyone in my squad so that this kind of thing won't happen again intentionally.

My apologise

vinny18 flew with us as a guest.
I didn't catch that he upped a Spit.  I'm more surprised
that nobody elese in my squad alerted me to it.

Anyway, he should have known better.  With the extra 20 minutes
we had I went over our operations order line by line just to
make sure that guests knew our plan.

I will have a talk with the lad.

Hi Gents

I was wondering if you have tried using the arena settings for death count.

DeathMaxCount:
Limits the maximum number of deaths a player can have during the time limit set by DeathTimeMin.

DeathTimeMin:
Sets the time limit in minutes for the DeathMaxCount variable.

so if DeathMaxCount was set to 1 and DeathTimeMin was set to 180 each pilot could launch once in a three hour period.....
 
I would see the following issues:
1- Would cause problems where you have plane like the VAL with multiple lives

2- If I recall correctly, pilots who crash or disco in the first 15 minutes are allowed to re-up and the death count would stop them.
A solution to this may be to change the setting after the first 15 minutes. but  perhaps it will not take effect until a player logs off and back on

3- It may stop people from joing other players as a gunner/observer

4- I think it would stop people from joing ships as a gunner
