I was just wondering if it's possible to show the "real" max health when we modify the health/armor points of vehicles and other things.
For example, if I lower the max health of a Medium tank to 100, in the server it will look like it's heavily damaged even though it's at the max.

Not a big deal since it's purely cosmetics, but I thought it was worth asking

He means max health being changed during the game. I dunno exactely how hard this would be, it might just be a question of sending set_max_health over the network.

Well it's not important enough to push back any release dates, but it would be cool to look into Wink

RR has an own network protocol beside the Renegade protocol where it can effectively send additional data. That would be way too much for Custom Scripts.
Ghostshaw is already trying to find other ways to do that Wink

By writing code, compiling it, testing it and then commiting it to SVN.

TT will just send the max health/shield values over network, nothing more to it really.

They aren't nub just because the server implements something that the client cannot interpret correctly.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
