A fix for the PT bug has been devised and is currently being tested on the n00bstories.com AOW/CCM server. If you get the PT bug while on this server from this moment forth, please let Sir Kane or inetknght know.

For those of you that do not know, the PT bug is where you're not able to open the purchase terminal after connecting to the server. The workaround to the bug is to die once... after that, you can access the PT bug until the next time you connect to the server.

The randomness on the internet is amazing.

Nice to see old and annoying bugs fixed.

A fix that has been needed for a long time, good work.

Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

Yes, it will after one or two days of it running without any failure/other problems.

How will it work?

Will it be a case of either running a .dll made by you, or running Johnwill's/WD's one and it over-rides yours because it loads last?

Will there be a source code release?


Great work BTW, real nice job Thumbs Up

Good old bandtest.dll.
And nope, no open source as scripts.dll already gives enough info away to make cheats.

I can fix the problem with the purchase terminals being used from outside of the buildings.

That's not what they're talking about. The "PT bug" is when you join the game and are unable to use the PTs.

I know, I just thought I'd bring that to attention while they're on the topic of purchase terminal bugs.

Using them from the outside is just so normal for about everyone now, i think people wouldn't like it.

Agreed, accessing PT's from outside buildings is now a strategy instead of a bug for me. Many good players can't live without it.

Say there is a beacon behind bar, you managed to kill the SBH, you got about 15 seconds left. The outside PT is really needed there, otherwise you need to walk in the bar or any nearby building, buy a hottie, and then come back and watch it go boom.

Yeah, such as all those goddamn snipers that use the scope for short-range duels. That's abuse of a bug.

Accessing the Purchase Terminal from outside a building is necessary. Otherwise, all an SBH needs to do is place the nuke farthest from the nearest door, and it almost guarantees the nuke to be successful.

Can't tell what caused it because someone who remains unnamed (cough) will take that info and make their "own" fix!
