Servers expected to be minigames

[laremere]

I was working on my BAN app when someone joined and spawned and got the team death match message.  He then got really happy and I told him I wasn't running a minigame.  After a small amount of time he left.
Latter someone else joined and just started shooting me.  I replied with a humble 3 day ban.


Why are servers expected to be deathmatches or some form of minigame?  This is a building game...

Solution porperly name your servers :D , also this is just a game not a building game .

So you tricked a guy into thinking you were running a death match, then banned him for it.  Good job.  Thanks for making Blockland that much worse. 

[laremere]

No.

The team deathmatch message is desplayed no matter if it is running or not.  Then latter another person came and just started shooting at me wile I was building.

Its the team DM Add-on, you join and it makes a message that says the TDM rules. Very confusing if there is not mini game set. I think that needs to be fixed.

My server was named laremere's server, and the welcome message was "working on BAN app".  That should imply that it isn't a minigame.

And wile blockland isn't just building, it's annoying that you have to say it's a building server all over the place...

Yeah, that needs to be fixed, i may get rid of team dm, seeing as i rarely use it anyway :\

Then again, i rarely start servers

Many people kept joining my server and not knowing how to play the game modes I was testing, so I made it do /tdmhelp (same message) as you spawn.

And its fail'd. Like everything else you do

I fail to see how this makes it not your fault.  If you run stuff mods, don't blame other people when they're confused.  Furthermore, it's not like a few bullets hitting you is going to ruin your day.  Either disable the team deathmatch add-on or be prepared to explain it to people.

Ya the message is anoying on non DM's so im gona cut that part of the script out later today on my server and i sugest if you make a new TDM mod space have that as a optiopn.

$20 says we find a help topic in the Coding Help forum in a bit.

[Lt Chub Chub]

Actually i just scimed threw all the .cs for TDM and couldn't find it 8P.
Spaceguy can you please make more comments (// things but you knew that) to help explain your code? Or do you not want people changing it and claming its their own?
Mabey you could just post a help topic or a updated version of TDM?

Maybe it's in the bit labelled Join?

Spaceguy can you please make more comments

Oh, come on, I added massive comments explaining what nearly every function in Team DM does...

Or do you not want people changing it and claming its their own?

When I make big mods, they get pretty complicated. I've added every feature I could think of - you're asking me to remove features because you say so.

Change line 1765 from

Code: [Select]

servercmdTdmHelp(%this);to

Code: [Select]

//servercmdTdmHelp(%this);
Alternately, put this in console:

Code: [Select]

$Pref::TeamDM::DefaultDesc = "Whatever random message you want as people spawn";
