Author Topic: Safe Zone Maker  (Read 10679 times)

I saw this on a server, and it sucked. The people were sitting in the safe zone, killing everybody while being invincible. It's totally unfair.
This was a noted bug, and was removed before I even posted it on the forums. Now, I haven't fixed the part about people sitting NEAR the safe zone, killing, and running back in.

This project's been on break since I've been waiting on v9, due to changes in add-ons and possible new features that might completely rework how I want the area zones to work.

This will eliminate spawn killing! HAIL TO YOU!!!!

Only somewhat. It doesn't stop camping, however, and people might sit outside the safe zone, waiting for people to come out, and then proceed to ambush them.

Who would suggest a grace timer? Basically, when you leave the safe zone, you have <blank> seconds before the effects wear off. That way, the ambushers have a disadvantage when they camp near the zone.

How about a respawn invincible timer?

This is about safe zones, spawning is just one case of this. Another could be, say, a shop, or a weapons building. Any major location with a safe zone has this problem.

Mind you, the grace timer works because not only can you not be damaged, you can't damage others. This means there isn't any reverse-camping going on.
