Lifixs Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Due to a clerical error, none of the supplies ordered for the new NCS Cyberiad were sent. The crew arrive to find a totally unstocked station without even critical equipment. Centcom refuses to acknowledge the issue in an effort to cover up the mistake. Any attempt to call the escape shuttle will be rescinded automatically, lest word get out. 30ish minutes into the round, Centcom will begin issuing arbitrary production/research demands. Each of these comes with a time limit, and the implicit threat of "Involuntary Termination". (Death Squad) The crew wins if they manage to fulfil all the demands OR defeat the deathsquad. Most machines, computers, and infrastructure would remain. But lockers and "loose" items would disappear during this mode. A full list of of exemptions would have to be created.

Fj45 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Seems almost impossible/a huge amount of work on the mapping side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizdale Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 could you not just create a duplicate map with a lot of deleted items? or is having a specific map for a specific gamemode not possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Index Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Every time you want to switch maps you need to recompile, and that would be annoying, it doesn't take very long, but cant be easily automated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifixs Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Instead of using a different map, would it not be possible to batch-remove the items at round start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Index Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Instead of using a different map, would it not be possible to batch-remove the items at round start? Very very lag-prohibitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fj45 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 could you not just create a duplicate map with a lot of deleted items? Unless I'm missing something in the mapping tool, someone would need to go item by item, DELETING EVERY SINGLE ITEM ONE AT A TIME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJB3005 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 wouldn't placing the 'empty' station on a hidden Zlevel work? then make everybody start on that specific Z and change some Z level accesibility settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fj45 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Pretty sure that would cause lag and plenty of z-level problems. It would be far too complex for what you would gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
