For god's sake, fix the tankwreck bug.

I just came from a server where a certain newbie called -=uT=-|cAmpa was doing this shit all hourglass, just to get MVP.

Well, for one, I'm not sure what you're talking about...anyways, I guess it's in the SSAOW scripts.
This might be what you were talking about, but here I go:
Wrecked tanks don't decrease the tank limit.
So if you wreck some light tanks for example (you can have 8 wrecs for example) Then you buy some flamers and stanks and artys...and repair the light tanks again. So you have more tanks than what the limit is.
Maybe you were talking about this, but if not: also correct this if possible Smile

He's talking about the bug where when a damaged tank dies, and it respawns as the broken one, you can repair it for points (in some servers) The server "auf maul's gibt" or however u name it, has it so that they can blow up their tanks and repair it for points or for a win. Childish and n00bish, yes, and you'd think they'd do something about it (the admins) only that the admins participate in it, so it's like playing 30 minutes of under, only to lose because some retard can repair a dead med for the whole game. But ofc there are fixes just they don't either know about it or would rather cheat and win.

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

just make the wrecks neutral.

this would fix two problems: the one de7 and zeph mentioned where players pointwhore off them, and the fact if an enemy steals one of your tanks and you wreck it, you can't destroy the wreck.

I don't know if this is a bug also, but it should be fixed anyway:

I've played on a few servers running CP!. A GDI tank gets destroyed, but it can still be repaired and saved. On those servers I played on, you could never save a Nod tank.

I don't know how this became the case, but CP2 hould be fixed so if saving destroyed vehicles (I don't know the proper name for it) is enabled, it is enabled for both sides.

Buggies
Hummers
GDI APC
Light Tanks
Medium Tanks
Orcas

These are the only vehicles that have "wreckages" for them. All other
vehicles in renegade dont have a "Wreckage".

couldn't someone model, say, a mammoth wreckage and assign it to spawn when the mammoth is destroyed?

Nope. You'd need to create a new preset and kill out all of the non patched versions.

if some had the model of that wreckage and some didn't, it would cause (at best guess) those people who don't have it to crash.

You shouldn't get points of saving a tank, and you should only get points from repairing a tank once you've claimed it for your side, in which case you can't damage it under friendly fire..

I think mammies can be "wrecked" also. In one server, the wf was about to go down, so I bought a mammy. The nuke landed right when the mammy came out, and it was wrecked, but I managed to repair it and save it.

I know what you mean, i modded it a bit so it spawns a "Decoy" model, its
not actually a Wreckage but you cant get in until you repair it.

I think all those wrecked vehicles should be taken away. Don't really need them, plus they just make Rene run worse.

It doesn't make Renegade run worse if you're running Renegade on a halfway decent machine.

They never affected my FPS/Ping, i say add the rest of the wrecks. for the Orca/Apache and the Chinooks,too,just have them decend to the ground before exploding. and it is useful to repair them. ORCAs are terribly expensive,and it would be nice,seen as they are so easily killed by n00bjetters...

It would look stupid seeing a wrecked orca falling out of the sky. It would just spawn and fall straight down along side the driver..

I thought this topic was about the animations.

Anyway, I don't like this addition or whatever it is. I was on Complex the other day. We rushed and took thier Airstrip and Refinery. When we rushed again, they had 3 Medium Tanks. I think it's stupid. You work well as a team to prevent them from making vehicles, then they can just take yours when you lose it.

If you think about it, if you have a stolen vehicle, yourself and others are proned to camping because you dont wanna lose it. Therefore making more camping and pointwhoring going on.

The problem is that most servers have them show up as YOUR team when they die, so you cannot C4 them or attack them to disallow enemy capture. Unless the enemy is stupid enough to attack it, it's guaranteed to become theirs!!

I know what you mean, my APC became neutral and I decided to buy a Med Tank. I couldnt use C4's to blow it up Sad

An apache wreck would be good, especially if you could get the trajectory right, i.e. it didn't just drop. Also it hitting the ground should cause damage so if it was too high it would just explode anyway.

Yes they should become neutral too...
