ok, would any server owner (I mean major server owner, the owner of a 24-32 player) be willing to turn these settings on for a couple of days gaming? I think this would be really fun. we always play the same maps, with the same settings, over and over and over. unrepairable buildings would mean faster games and different gameplay (everyone defending or attacking, no screwing around). friendly fire, if not abused, makes people watch where they shoot in a crowded place. especially in buildings! how about it? In 2 years, I think I've played only a few games with indestroyable buildings. I really would like to see more of this, and less of the same gameplay in virtually every public server on WOL.

You've got it backwards. Building un-repairable, which means you have to defend better.

I'm the bawss.

Not really. if everyone was defending, who would be attacking? It would probably be a rush to destroy their buildings faster...I think it would be really fun. if you lose a building, who cares, even standard soldiers and rocket soldiers are valuable here and you won't be sitting for ages till your last buildings are blown up.

I said "defend better", not "only defend". Of course a good defense is an even better offense, so you could always strive to get the other team's buildings first. I'm up for this idea -- maybe I could do it all day Saturday since the weekends are, for obvious reasons, busier days for Renegade.

I'm the bawss.

We did this for a couple days on our server once as a joke, all the games were pretty much who could kill the enemy's base fastest. No one bothered defending at all.

ahh but how many players were on your server? I think it used to be a 20 player or something. 16 a side and there will probably be people defending Very Happy

ok, if you decide to run it i'll be there

Edit: yeah the FF was more a suggestion, its the buildings thing i'm more interested in

Can we just try the buildings first and Friendly Fire still off? I am expecting a rush of n00bism when FF is on.

I'm the bawss.

I think that's a good idea but the host would need 2 put a small mine limit on the map if not i think people would definitly overload on the mines.

all that would do is make the teams play Destroy the enemy base before they destroy ours

When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself,
First as a dark demon,
As a demon it uses its power to reign death upon the land;
and then it dies.

However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns.
This time as a great hero...

To answer your question (I don't think anyone has yet; they've only provided critisism): edit your svrcfg_cnc.ini. Look for the line "CanRepairBuildings=yes", change it to "CanRepairBuildings=no".

That should work for what you want.

You made a mistake and said indestroyable buildings, as in you can't destroy them...

I seem to recall having quite a lot of fun when you had FF on one of the n00bstories servers.

HTMLGOD is still pissed at me.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem much different than what usually goes on. Especially yesterday, I was on a server with a bunch of newbies (or well, at least names I didn't recognize) and I found myself as the only one mining, repairing, or playing defense in general.

So?

I don't defend unless something weird happens

Not being able to repair buildings: free
Telling people to defend the base: free
Knowing that when they do, they will only be wasting time: free
Watching people say that they wouldn't defend even if it didnt waste time, meaning that they have no sense of teamplay: priceless

Is that directed at me? I can't tell.
