TV2 GUN GAME!!!
Hey dog I toyed around with it a bit this morning for a few rounds and here's some things you should look at.
-Remove complex maps such as underpass(or something like that). As you probably already know, when bots are on the server they need to calculate the map and what they can do and where and other things and what-nots. This has the potential to take forever. I sat for about 5 minutes watching the server try to calculate this information before it reset and went on to another simpler map.
-Crank those bots back up. I joined a game with the bots all at around level 15 and I won the game in a matter of a few minutes. They are still deadly when you try to get close to them but I don't think they are very good at knifing right now at all.
-It was mentioned in another thread to crank the spawn protection time up to ~15 seconds unless the person fires a weapon. I agree wholeheartedly here, however can this be exploited to get closer to enemies with weapons such as the knife? It was far too easy to spawn camp on maps like simpson street where all of the spawns are packed together. Is there any possible way to have dynamic spawning points??
-Is there any way to have it so that there are like 2+ rounds on a map? Based on the players these games can go by very quickly especially with the DM plug-in. It's nice to constantly have a fresh map to play on but its also kind of annoying to be loading a new map every few minutes.
Just a few things from my perspective. I'll go play with my minions of bots for a bit more and see if I can find anything else..

[quote="StrontiumDog";p="34907"]Oh...another setting. I can turn this one on if you like:
Because DM is on, games are too quick. I can set it so that you need 2 or 3 kills with a weapon before progressing to the next level......[/quote]
That would be cool.
P.S. You still need to remove stock maps such as De_Dust. For some reason it loaded a few minutes ago. Kinda funny, in the middle of the GG the server said "CT wins" and sent everyone back to the spawn locations.
Another map that doesn't work (atleast for me) is punishment. When I try to connect it says Im missing the punishment.bsp file. This is probably something I could just download but figured that I would point it out since most of the other GG maps were downloading from the server.

Re: TV2 GUN GAME!!!
The waiting for the bots to find their positions should be a one time deal. The server creates the .nav file and it should stay on, so the next time the map comes up it doesn't have to do that.
I dont think the bots have been changed in level... When you join a map thay the bots have been on for a while you will start at a higher level and not at level 1. So it is pretty easy to finish the map from there. I played at lunch and went through about 4 maps in 30 minutes or less, so we'll just have to keep playing with it until we get it right, but increasing the amount of kills per weapon might be an answer.

Re: TV2 GUN GAME!!!
I love the gun game, thx dog. I think everybody had fun lastnight.
Re: TV2 GUN GAME!!!
I think having to kill a couple times would be cool except most get stuck on the single shot shotty and nade and knife of course... This may make for an extremly long game which can be wearing in GG.. I love GG though anyway we play!! Just glad we have it at home

woot woot! I had fun playing with you DOW! And everyone else! I look forward to owning you all again soon xD
Also, Dog please remove the stock maps such as the ones with hostages and bombs, because it gets really stupid when bots are planting the bombs and what not. Plus the maps are too big.

Re: TV2 GUN GAME!!!
I like the stock maps Dog, it will be fun with a full server! People should just vote on the map according to how many are on the server at that time. I think you did a great job Dog! Leave her be

Re: TV2 GUN GAME!!!
My favorite map is gg_autumn (or something like that). The one with opposing bunkers that doesn't look like lego, mario land, simpsons, or orange (although I like them too).

The bots dont understand that they have to use their grenades to advance. They keep pistoling when they reach the grenade level.
