Help us make the server better!

can the server handle storing that much info?


(and not use it? don't type jm_saveloc ...)

That's not what not using the mos means.
Not saving still allows you unlimited health and ammo no matter what.
You can disable that with [J++].
It doesn't actually store that much info.

Don't worry about data storing, that's a tiny amount.

but wasn't JM set up to NOT give you ammo or health UNLESS you type jm_resupply?

And that's exactly why I don't play anymore.

It's set up to only give ammo if you give the command, and to not give health. What's your problem?

I want health and ammo 24/7 so I can rocket jump up tall walls properly, and soldier b-hop (which is required in some maps).

Here's what I've been talking about in case you didn't see it:

The pogoing maps I've played are already setup to heal you automatically - jumpmod isn't required for that.

The easiest way to vastly improve the server, instantly, is to change the max overheal back to 1.5x, in my opinion. I've heard people say that the higher overheal encourages "teamwork", but all I really see it doing is make medics TOO important (pretty much 95% of the time, the team with more medics wins on tf4, it seems), along with weakening weapons with smaller clips and long reload times like the scattergun/shotgun and strengthening weapons that don't have to spend time reloading (part of the reason Heavies and Pyros tend to seem too powerful in the server). Every time I play on different servers, everything just feels more balanced to me, and the game seems to flow better.

i think settings like that should be changed all the time so the server doesn't stagnate

i think it would be cool to try default (is 1.5 default?) overheal for a couple weeks and then try 1.0 to see what happens for a couple weeks and then 5x for a couple weeks etc. it's interesting and fun to learn new tactics that way

[NightFantom]

i like joe's idea, though it would need a list or timetable or whatever (probably somewhere on the site, but preferably on the server too, so you can see it by pressing "i" for info) with the changed settings


something like this:(sorry i'm bad with making tables)
............crits:....overheal:
mon:.... all..........1.5
tue: .....all..........2
wed: ....normal.....2.5
thu:..... normal....10
fri:...... none.......1.2
sat: .....none.......2
sun: ....all..........3

changes that frequent would just confuse and annoy people.

change them and leave them for a while so people go through different stages - surprise, amusement, research, experimentation, expertise, boredom, and then change the settings again

[KoD]

Hell no.
The server doesn't need 100% crits on any day all day and definitely not anything over 2x overheal. That's just madness.

[Rat-morningstar]

fyi, the team with 2/10 medics wins on pretty much any server


just as a team of only soldiers wins pretty much all the time
especially when chain-firing buff banners

the horror
