Wassup TH! I am back from a half year of rest from modding :) Now I'm back to start modding again, and I thought some WC3 would do it.

Meant like, one is the infected and the others go to try to figure who it is, while he goes on transforming everyone to a infected in secrecy.

what i always thought would be pretty funny if the players cannot see each others player name but can only find out who is who by the team colour. however one player, who is meant to kill the others, is given the power to switch team colours and even his name in the chat. (you would need a system to hide the chat therefor, available at the resources sub-forum)

players could easily kill the bad guy, however the bad guy could perma stun single targets with a 100% bashing chance with low duration. that means he could take a single man out without problems but already 2 are enough to kill him.

to make it more interesting the people have to solve some special tasks which requires them to split up, and the terrain is full of traps and secret doors which will divide them and force them to go alone and such.

another interesting idea i had for such a map would be if the fallen players could play on as ghosts, the alive players couldnt see them nor attack them but the ghosts could hunt the living, though they wouldnt know which one is the bad guy and who aint. and by changing his team colour and player name in the chat it would be nearly impossible to guess who is who.

As a map aspect, i always find with the lighting darker/dimmed and more of being inside a building and not having a huge map outside to roam around always makes those games more intense

This is the way it was meant to be.

In the center of the map, there are arrows (Use the thing that pops up when you're selling items) pointing in the direction of each uninfected player.

Could you explain a bit clearer what type of map it is? I've never played infection and "be infected, and go around infect other players" could be meny types of map.

You need to build you own fortress, fight zombies, do quests or what is it all about? :eek:

It's like this:

One starts out as the infected, a random picked player in the amount of player playing

The Infected's goal is to infect and terminate all of the marines.

While the marines goal is to try to figure out who the Infector is and terminate him.

The Infector can infect other players and spread the diease. All infectors can turn to their normal Marine Model as they were before, but only the frist Infector (Master Infector) can change his team color and name to confuse the other players.

While being a marine your mission is to trust nobody and cooperate with everybody, a very hard task.

    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
