More weapons? Nice! Btw, once again, can you reduce the reviving time for non-medics to 20 seconds instead of 30 seconds pls?

Server 4 Update:

1. New Weapons/Explosives:
   • Stingball (explosive, works like a flash)
   • Walther WA2000
   • Hk416c
   • Lynx CQ-300
   • QBZ-95-1
   • Remington R5 Black
   • Remington R5 Tan
   • Steyur AUG A3
   • Taurus Judge (Secondary)
2. Team Killing Temp Ban Feature: (TK LIMIT: 3)
   • Command to forgive:  /forgive or(!forgive in chat)
     • Gives victim a choice to forgive the TK, or let it continue (by ignoring). If victim forgives the tk, the counter is not updated. It stays  as is. If ignored, the counter is increased until the player commits 3 tk's (and no one forgives him, meaning it was intentional) then the player gets banned for 10min (initial ban).
     • If the player comes back after 10min and does 3 tk's then the ban timer is multiplied by 5x(last ban time), in this case 5x10 would be 50mins of ban time for second tk ban.
     • All of this is auto-done by the server, there will not be any exceptions not even for admins. So before you randomly start spraying everywhere and hurting others think about this.

Server 2 update:  TK Temp Ban, same settings as server 4(above).

What is causing the huge ping spikes on server #4.

Im not sure if its due to my location. 

Sometimes when the ping spike happens only a handful are affected.

 

Example: normal ping 20-30 , during spike ping 200 - 900.

 

Is this problem fixable?

oh yes. the lag spikes are not good and not fun to play with.
i don´t think it is location side problem.

[Swaroop]

After the new updates, the lag spikes didnt happen very often. In my opinion almost never.

Last night it was very often and no fun with that.

 

Maybe after restart server it is better.

 

For my understanding, gaming server have a cache? Maybe delete?

We are trying to fix it, since the upgrade it was less, still optimizing stuff, so I know which settings affect lag and which don't. It should not lag today. If it does please do reply here again(or even on discord). Sorry for the inconvenience.

 

Spoiler

Server#2 upgrade coming soon!!!

The ping spikes have returned sadly

Reduced bot count from 18 to 10, (Bots alive at an instant). Respawn counters are still same so there shouldn't be much difference to bot counts(kills that you would get), but will reduce collateral. Mg spam/explosives on bot spawns will be affected severely.

Bot Carnage(#4) Server Updates:

• Removed Map facilityb2_coop_v1_1 checkpoint as per user feedback (reason: low fps).
• Also disabled the compulsory use of jammer, seems that it isn't working as of now, (jammer has no use as of now, so don't build it).
• Trying to disable custom character skins, weapon updates: none, it takes lots of time to disable a weapon, (adding I really can't, don't have enough knowledge for it.)

Bot Carnage(#4) Server Updates:

• Added few new maps, check the Map Collection for the complete map-cycle.
• A possible solution for jammer has been put in, let me know if it works.
• Removed Custom Character skins (incompatible on some custom maps.)
• Advertisement changes.

Server#2 Update:

• Currently working on a feature to 'no medic' (since it gets boring if you die and there is no objective capture possible.). Stay Tuned.!!!

[Carbonautics]

Bot Carnage(#4) Server Updates:

• Jammer has been fixed. Range of 1200 and 60%chance of blocking the IED.
• Temporarily disabled WW2 weapons (due to source engine limits, credits to Ghost for pointing them out.)

Server#2 Update:

• Added new maps to the map-cycle, check the Map Collection.
• Currently working on a feature to 'no medic' (since it gets boring if you die and there is no objective capture possible.). Stay Tuned.!!!

[Carbonautics]

Bot Carnage(#4) Server Updates:

• Temporarily disabled map: pripyat (new players get map differing error.)
• Added 4 new custom maps. You can check the Map Collection to download them all at once. Below are the links if you are interested in specific ones.

  1. ins_tosca_v1

  2. Iron Express

  3. Glycencity

  4. winter_rescue_ws (2020 fix)

 

 

General Error fix:

 

Some maps give you error spams, it is common, and doesn't hurt anything. no lag or fps drops.

To remove this error spam do the following: 

 

- Open console

- Type in con_filter_enable 1

- Grab 1 or 2 words from the spamming line (example: error vertex)

- Put it in con_filter_text_out <text to filter out(example: error vertex)>
