ET SILENT #1 PROPOSAL FOR S1 SPREE RESET

[SilveR LeadeR]

Good morning =F|A= @LazyHippo @!MX @L3ftY.

 

I have a question.......

 

Are the s1 kill sprees remain indefinitely on display?

 

My friends, don't we feel the time has come for change within our popular s1 server? and to restart the overall s1 kill sprees on every s1 map?

 

But this time... could we please apply the sprees so that they only affect human players? (bots not counting)

 

Then we will see exactly who the real fraggers are on our s1 server.

 

No more glorified bot slayers please.

 

momento mori's 736 murder spree must be brought to justice 😂😂😂

 

All are welcome to express their disapproval with my proposal to change for the better (in my opinion)

 

Gentleman..... may i remind you all that this proposal is not intended to changing server maps. Keep the maps as they currently are.

 

But lets see some real kill sprees for a change.

 

 

Thank you.

I second this proposal! I too think the overall kill spree should be reset and most importantly, to me at least, confined to only human kills excluding bot kills please

[LazyHippo]

Not sure about the answer to that question @HaLLoWeeN but as I far I experienced they remain until a higher spree is reached.

 

I know how some players take care about their stats and all, for me the game and the fun it creates is more valuable but I still promote the idea to reset the sprees and to award it to a "human killer", its a fair proposal and could be reasonable with obvious move to see the real map top killer.

 

Maybe @D..X and certainly @daredevil could give us a good feedback about this.

I agree with Halloween... Let's put the real results of clashes between HUMANS. 100% support.

Sorry for late response, but let´s go. 

 

Idk if it´s possible to apply "sprees" only killing humans, instead bot., as Lazy said, only @daredevil or someone who works with servers can explain how it works with more details. However, i can give my opinion how i think it could work.

 

I wouldn´t mess with general spree record, like you said, memento has a 736 kills, this is huge. Imagine how much effort he puts in to get it. It´s like KR or PRW, even with bots only, this is a goal for players, get a huge KR and a nice PRW. I´ll speak for myself, if someone one day reset my KR  or PRW (stats), i´ll be pissed, becoz over the years, i worked so much to have it. 

 

I dont think if it´s possible to reset map spree record each 3 or 6 months without mess up with general record. This is the first time i saw someone asking / suggesting change on server. If i may suggest something, i would say to reset each spree record on 6 months period, then, we can open the blank space to others. 

 

Oh !MX, so, you are contradicting yourself becoz you said you would be upset if they reset your KR. But, one thing is my personal KR and PRW and they don´t interfere anything for others. Considering you started the topic, we can see someone is a bit upset (and other players can think the same, they just don´t formalize as you did), so, let´s try to work on it.

I don't have an opinion whether we do this or not, but you do run the risk of the same player(s) having every map spree, or people joining the server earlier in the day to farm the spree with less people. My 2cents.  Also I believe memento mori spree wasn't on bots

After some brief research, all i can find is if you disable the spree records, restart the server and enable them, (maybe need another server restart) it should reset them, but not 100% as a said brief research

I've been working on our ETL servers, which are different compared to silent (stuff like sprees is controlled by Lua API which is fully customizable, while silent has it built into the mod). Haven't touched silent for years and don't work on silent FA servers either.

 

BUT, I know where to check for cvar explanations and I found this:
https://mygamingtalk.com/wiki/Silent_Mod_Server_Cvar#g_spreeOptions

Apparently you CAN exclude bot kills from spree kills, as long as you put 256 inside bitmask cvar value:
 

256 Killing bots doesn't count for multikills or killingsprees (Note: they DO count for ending kill/deathsprees) 

 

The rest is up to you

[RendeL]

Yeah there is the answer, but to do this, you need DD.
