Went Back and Found Instructions to Steal the Sheep, Capture the Flag.

[bustr]

These are the closed alpha instructions Hitech gave for Capture the Flag and Steal the Sheep.

Capture the Flag.

This release is to test the Flag/Pennant capture system

There are Pennants at the 3 center vehicle bases in the Capture the flag arena.

To display their position, right click the clip board map and enable "Pennant Display". (You may wish to turn other stuff off)

To grab the pennant you simply drive or fly into the green stuff. (Not sure how the final will look)
You can drop the pennant at any time simply with a .dp (Drop Pennant) the dot command will at some point be added to the clip board.

To capture the field you must exit your plane or vehicle on a friendly base/runway.

If you die the pennants drops where you died.

There are currently exploits like a friendly team could take the flag far away from it's base, I am debating which solution to use to solve the exploit.

Steal the Sheep.


The goal of the game is to steal all the enemy's sheep and bring them
back to your own sheep pen. This is accomplished by flying or driving
within 100 feet of an enemy sheep. The sheep are in the sheep pen,
shown as an Icon on the map.

The arena is divided into 2 sides (on this map the dividing line is
shown by a tree line).

In Steal the Sheep no damage is applied with bullets. Instead of
receiving damage, if you are shot you are tagged. If you are on the
friendly side of the tree line you can not be tagged.

If you are on the enemy side without a sheep and you are tagged, you
are then put in "Jail." You will remain in jail until someone from
your own side tags you and frees you. Once you are free, you and your
rescuer must fly back to friendly territory before you can steal
another sheep. Neither of you can be tagged again until you return to
the enemy side.

As more people are put in jail they are lined up 1/4 mile apart on a
line headed to the friendly side.

If anyone from your side is in jail, no sheep can be picked up.
Everyone must be freed before your side can resume collecting sheep.

The game is won when the last sheep is picked up from the enemy's sheep pen

Nice find Bustr. I had absolutely no clue how to accomplish the objective.

HTC perhaps a MOTD or Readme would be useful for those new/old players venturing into the sheep/flag areas for the 1st time.

Still running into players with no clue what to do in this arena.

I sincerely hope that when alpha's complete and new players start banging the doors down, there are some training tutorials for them...for all the basic attributes of becoming familiarized with the game. 

[BuckShot]

Is this sheep arena to test the alpha, or will it be part of the final version?

[JimmyC]

Rules should be put in arena messages for referral maybe

Unless Hitech has changed the process here are the rules again.
