Oh, and you should also force people to be touching the building when they plant a beacon; they can't be close to it, oh no! That would be hacking! Sarcasm

and placing a beacon in the space between two buildings so it kills one and seriously damages the other, or even kills both, is worthy of being banned from ever playing on renegade again! such evil hacking!

so placing a beacon where it does little damage, but is in an easily defendable position is comparable to a hack which lets you kill buildings with a pistol?... Sarcasm

Often tunnel beacons are not to destroy the building, but a last ditch effort to get enough points to take / retain the lead in a close points game...

Fortunatly kiling a building by cheats isnt posible Smile

This is because the server checks your damage when you fire at buildings.

And Dan, it's "disarmb" since "disarm" will disarm their c4/timed.

disarm <id> = Remote C4 and Timed C4.
disarmp <id> = Proximity C4.
disarmb <id> = Beacons.

i ment disarm as the verb.

doesn't this gut want it so you can't put beacons in a tunnel?

That was directed to Dan Paul. Sorry if i mislead you.

Another thing that is worse is when there's a map that has flying vehicles but the maker didn't put stairs to the parts of the building, so if someone plants a beacon on top of the HON, for instance, nobody can disarm it unless they buy a helicopter and fly up there. Rocked Over
