Author Topic: Jetz's Climbing Challenge - Closed  (Read 10627 times)

I've been hosting a climbing challenge for almost a day and I think it has gone pretty well. It's filled up every time I boosted the player limit, so I thought I'd make a topic about it for the couple weeks it is open.

So this is a challenge centered around my new add-on, the Climbing Pick (With model by Spider_). It has a tutorial to teach you the basics of the pick, then 6 levels of pain. The map has a blocky mountain/island theme with water flowing through it. Water, unfortunately, is fatal here. Progress is saved with each level and you can come back to the server any time to pick up where you left off. The challenge also features races, where you can try to get the best time on levels you've beaten.





Server rules:
1. Don't be a richard.
2. No timescale cheating.

I trust the admins I pick to judge violations and enforce these rules at their discretion. I think the server is generally low-maintenance when it comes to administration needed because I haven't really needed to step in much so far, but what do I know about what goes on when I'm not around? Any other exploits you find are probably shortcuts intentionally left in, though if it is an exploit-shortcut, I guess that's my fault for not testing well enough.

FAQ:
Q: whho made climb pick
A: I did. With a model thanks to Spider_.

Q: where do i download it
A: It's not currently available on RTB; I intend to host-Q: when will you release it
A: ...I intend to host the server for a number of weeks, then release the game-mode and pick together.

Q: JETZ THIS IS TOO HARD MAKE LEVEL 1 EASI-
A: No. It's a challenge. It's challenging.

Q: ASFKLDA TELE ME TO LEVEL-
A: No. I've made it a personal policy not to fetch anyone for any reas-DFJSKLKLDSQQQQQ: but I was on level 3 and I fell down to the tutorial!!!!!
A: That's fine, you can use the /goto command to jump to any checkpoint you've touched before.

Q: when are you going to make more levels
A: I never really planned to; the code wasn't made to support a new world, and to just extend the current world means either resetting all the winners' files so they're on level 7 or hacking up the code significantly. I hope releasing the game-mode and pick will encourage people to make their own climbing challenge.

Q: device why id your name gold
Q: who herecompleted the challenge
A: People with cyan names completed the challenge. People with yellow names completed the entire challenge, tutorial to finish, in one life.

Anyway, click the picture at the top to go to the join page, or just use the server browser. I plan to keep the server up for a while, on the scale of days to weeks depending on how well it turns out, then release the game-mode and pick. Player limit will probably jump around a bit because I can't manage too heavily late at night but during the day it has been getting pretty crowded. So yeah, thanks for reading, stop by if you're a psychotic persistent masochist, blah blah blah we done here.

Yeah it has been like that all day. Kinda worried about upping it since I'm already worried campus internet is about to bust down my door.

Why don't you host it on RTB for a while?

If this keeps up I probably will. Still, I don't want to go to 99 players for a couple reasons. First, gigantic loving clusterforget. Second, supply and demand seems to apply to server slots. If the server is full, more people want in.

Well your a very good scripter, why don't you make a script that disables player collision with other players?

Scripting is not magic. I cannot do that through script. Additionally, due to the way the picks work, that would make the clusterforgets worse.

I don't think that's possible with the amount of API we have. Only Badspot could do that I believe. (Unless you used hacky methods)

I know scripting isn't magic, but I thought for sure Torque limitations would stop this.

Looks really cool, I'll try it out.

tis logo is more smexy
