Bugs Fixing Suggestions

[Ameero]

I'm gonna go ahead and start this topic so everyone could share and give suggestions for any bugs that they think exist on server or in some maps, and work together to find the possibility of solving them if there were solutions.

I noticed few bugs myself and heard other players complaining about them, but i don't know anything about coding so I will leave this to Kissaki, Gauki and $n!iped if you can fix it.

First, the mines bug. When someone change teams, class (from eng to another class), or go to spec his mines don't go away. (so basically for ex. someone could still make kills while being a spectator because they already planted mines).

Second, the prone bug. You can't hit all body parts when someone is on prone, you can only make HS or shoot upper body.


Let us know if its easy/possible to fix such issues. And please feel free to discuss and share any other issues that you feel the server should not be having so we can avoid inconveniences.

Cheers

Not simple.

Not sure if the mines bug is a bug. That is a conceptual decision, whether they should disappear or not.

The prone hitboxes are definitely a big annoyance.

The nitmod bugtracker is available at http://etmods.net/tracker/index.php?project=1

The first one (mines) is a config settings. it can be changed. currently mines are only removed if someone disconnects completely from the server. the problem is if we change it so that they get removed when people go spec. what if someone is accidentally inactive and gets put spec. then it leaves the defensive team, completely bare. i think it should just stay the way it is.

The second, is also a setting on the server however i might also be a bug in nitmod as suggested by kissaki. we can ask them to look into it.

ill give it a check

[Kissaki]

Currently g_realbody is 0.
(But realbody implies it makes things better? Maybe it should be enabled?)

Not really, realBody makes nitmod hitboxes more "pro" than etpro

for the problem mentioned by ameero i think the it comes from his connection or from hitboxes' cvars
look if those cvars have 0 value
seta g_hitboxes 0
seta g_realBody 0

[Kissaki]

Both are 0.

so we have this nice prone hitboxe
 

this is the default etpro style hitboxe , you can hit the body boxe above the head but unlikely in shoulders  , distant proning player is hard to hit specially with unstable ping
a stable high ping does not cause lag with skip correction on (which i guess the current server setting)
