Pending Adding Karma depletion with Diamond Sword on Dinkledome

[Floofy]

With as much RDM that happens on that map anyways, the sword is the biggest threat for RDM. I think we should implement karma depletion so people are less inclined to use it and if they do it too much results in karma ban.

At one point the sword was being tracked in the Damagelogs. Im unsure of what happened

Agreed 100%

you would say this because you’re the one person i know that would get karma banned after 1 round on this map

This should be added. There are a couple of things that would be quite valuable to have tracked in the Damagelogs along with tacking karma depletion on so individuals cannot just run rampant with the sword.

I will tag @Virunas daily until the sword is shackled

smh i wrote it so it has karma depletion and dlog tracking but in october my script was modified locally by another dev https://giantslair.com/threads/10-2...s-discord-linking-and-bug-fixes.974/post-7054

If my script (pre halloween) didn’t work i’d like to know what was tested with it

I will tag @Virunas daily until the sword is shackled

id get upset too if i kept dying you people think you can come in here and change shit to whatever u want it to be

 

[Nura]

The only thing this will change is that people will leave diamond swords on the ground more often, or they’ll shoot it at you as you walk by...

I appreciate you wanting to reign in RDM with the sword, but I wonder if having it affect karma could lead to unintentional kills and karma bans. For example, I pick up the sword, kill nobody, and set it down. Then, a few people unassumingly walk over it and die. Even though I did not intend to kill anyone, my karma might still be affected. I think it might be better to simply have damage caused by the sword be tracked in the damage logs and allow the staff to handle sword kills on a case-to-case basis. I believe this would give room for people to mess around with the sword while still holding genuine RDMers accountable. I'm open to discussion, of course.

or maybe remove the map maybe?

@Zyp please get ahold of ur trial

No shot, jondome is a classic and actually a good map!!

 

[CelDamage]

honestly +1 to map removal, or removal of the diamond sword entirely. its like the eraser on spongebob but in tight corridors so it leads to an insane amount of rdm

 

[Zyp]

I like jondome, but with the sword having no auto punishment of some sort for bad actors its absurd the amount of rdm, Im pretty sure you could get to multiple mass rdm bans missed purely because people cannot get reported automatically.

 

[kevin]

no idea what ur talking about

[Agent Knockout]

Yeah, either implement it so it deducts karma while held or just remove the sword entirely. Map-specific instakill items are a problem as is, no need to try and be lenient with them.
