There's no need for them, they're just fucking things up on the siege server. Why do we even have them? I have not once seen them used as intended.

Scene Editing / New Siege Map: 'Shattered Skies'
« on: April 26, 2011, 02:57:35 am »
This map is intended to be a fast-paced siege map. The premise is an airship-to-airship battle.
The attacker's airships are chained to the bow of the defender's ship, with the spawns located in two different ships. Attackers must walk across boarding planks to reach the defender's vessel. Once there, they must fight their way down the length of the vessel to the rear of the defending ship. They must then ascend into the sterncastle where the defender's flag resides.
From attacking spawns to defender's flag is about a fifty second sprint, which is comparable to several other siege maps. The main difference is the absence of high walls, which could prove problematic to defenders. Because of this, this map will probably be further revised if balance issues present themselves. AI barriers have been erected around all ships to avoid horse-users from falling or jumping to their non-deaths. Jumping out on foot is still possible, however it is a long way down.
Available at http://www.mbrepository.com/file.php?id=2621. I've emailed the NA Server Admin and hope to see it in use there soon.

Scene Editing / [WIP] Battle/Siege Map
« on: February 25, 2011, 02:51:44 am »
Here's a few pictures of a map I've put together over the past 16 hours or so. It was intended to be a Battle map, but due to the presence of a couple of choke points I figured it would be better suited for Siege. Just looking for some general feedback. I'm not too sure how to code everything, including the start points and such, so I might hand that off to someone later for fine-tuning.
Some things still remain to be done. I'd like to add a bit more scenery and flavour to the map. Trying to keep the tree count low because it kills everyone's framerate. I might remove the single tree because without it I'm staying at 40+ FPS with an outdated machine.
Anyways, guys, let me know what you think!

Closed Requests / Re: Nappy's 2nd request

This one if for the 80-man server. I admit the other ban was reasonable, but this ban was almost completely groundless. Someone named Goretooth permanently banned me for building ladders. I had three ladders up...I build them and try to shoot arrows from the top.
There are 4 slots for weapons & gear.
-Ladder
-Ladder
-Ladder
-Bow?

Are there plans to overhaul strategus soon? It's broken/frozen for my main character.
