MRP players asking for a map and then whining about it a few days later, shocker. Reminds me of.. oh yeah CSCdesert Well, Delta is my personal favorite map to play. A ton of our playerbase genuinely wanted cscdesert back, and Delta was then based off of cscdesert, except... good? I don't know why you'd think it's a shitty map, you're saying an objective was "useless" but literally, we used to have a hole in the map (toxic pit) serve as an objective. Maybe you didn't like the layout of it? lol. Everything else you stated is indeed a matter of opinion, I know a ton of people who love Embassy and ATTC

So now that we can see a pretty odd drop in population (Saturday with a peak of 64 players) a few days following the introduction of Siberia, can we switch off so I can feel safe again ty The rotation will go Delta > Taigaforest > Chaharikar

If you think that for the purpose of an MRP objective terminal is too small, you have to be smoking crack man

Aka the 5FPS objective, or dumb it down to the point where it looks like airstrip from chaharikar, not a good call. If you're going to get descriptive like that again, try to draw it out, because there's alot of room for interpretation. I'm not a big fan of the idea though, at all. A portion of the map is already done that way, so that's good.

The only reason it never happened is because Dio is too detail/aesthetic oriented, and the map project while being 25% complete, cost us like 90% more FPS than we can afford LOL I'm talking like 100FPS singleplayer on a 1080. I could not optimize the map with the way he was designing it, so I let it go and had him get started on delta. Not possible, we can just enforce base-camping rules. Rooftops Would rather not "have personal conversations" about a map, but rather just funnel suggestions on the forums. the only difference between the two would be a couple extra decals, gloomy lighting and destroyed car props instead of car props. Maybe fire here and there ..? Probably going to stick to just urban for performance.

Unironically I really thought about an airport objective, but it just wouldn't make sense right next to a giant city :^(

Fuck no, the entire idea is to keep all the training areas INSIDE that way you save the frames from all the heavy playermodels and scripted entities. DB would be on the surface as well as spawns.

Well, it'd definitely be helpful if you read my post above. I need some help in designing a layout players would be happy with, and if people in the community contributed to a blueprint, I could knock out this map alot sooner.

I will put CSCDesert to shame. I've never went full-out on a map like this. And this is why I love you. 300 IQ Really any walkable path that would lead to the other side, it could be rubbled where the wall got blown up, a simple walk-through tunnel. Can be alot of things, but at the end of the day, the map will be composed of multiple zones encompassed by a wall (like darkrp's downtown) and passages will serve as a shortcut which doesn't exist in downtown. There would be no way to acoomplish it any other way, we would need a couple buildings on the surface, with one building that would bring you underground. I'd love to try and implement it in a "REALISTIC" way but it's not really realistic to just have a full blown military base under a city, but fuck it. The idea is to have each objective with 4-8 entry points per side. Alot of tactical play will be involved in this one.

I'm really not stressing myself with it, haven't mapped in a very long time now because I genuinely haven't had the time between all that updates, and it's refreshing. Underground with some passages to get inside other than the front gate would probably be the best way to go if we wanted the biggest bases imaginable and most detail/optimization. I can literally just make people go down a passage underground, and render the rest of the map out LOL

@AwesomeAidan, @D_Rose, @Ting, and @Homast (tagging you guys because I talk to you most - whether be for good or bad reasons *cough* ting*coughcouighcoughsdasds* I would love if you guys went ahead and asked a couple of your buddies what you would like to see, and possibly help me in laying down a design you'd be happy with for this map so far, my plan (and it's very dumbed down) goes like so: I came up with it roughly when I started mapping, to allow for ALOT of things to do, and many different transportation routes between events, while accounting for optimization. Please ignore the fact that this is in paint, there's not a whole lot I can do when it comes to this, and it gets the job done LOL

Hey man, so yeah, it'll be a pain in the ass to design a layout, and it'll probably be changed 50 times because it'll be more along-side the style of RP_Downtown, otherwise players would get 5 fps. Bases would be a cluster of concrete structures in the city that were fenced off OR simply bring it underground, which i'm a fan of.

Today, work started on RP_Garnet_Omega, one of the last maps we will have on our rotation (urban warfare) heavily influenced by COD and Insurgency. Lets see if years of primarily editing and optimizing maps paid off

War System Patched issue where donator classes could not damage one another, or cap objectives This portion would fix squad integration and team chat as well. It's coming 5 /2/2020, like stated in the title, tomorrow.

Guess you never did read the date for the update. RIP

Fixed, sorry about that. Amen, we just downgraded to 2-3 day event intervals due to the population dip when we switch to the event server.

If there was ever a time to rest it would not be now,

This update was carried out using a documented made by @Phantom with proposed , thank you! Granted, our numbers aren't bad and are significantly higher than what is displayed, because during peak-times we are always on our event server with 10-20 more players, the past few days have been very rough on StarwarsRP. I can speak on me and Phantom's behalf that we dedicated ALOT of our free-time to this server and we would be incredibly thankful of some of you guys who are maining StarwarsRP would show it some more love. I am aware this drop was in-part due to the fact that alot of people are taking their finals, and alot of MilitaryRP players returned to their home server, however, if you can do anything to help us numbers-wise, we would greatly appreciate it, because we're still trying our best. Thank you! Lightsaber System Combat Attacking will no longer restrict free movement NOTE: this WILL result in a lot of movement stutter, particularly during events - but everybody asked for it Meditation During meditation, jedis will now regenerate 10% of their health per tick interval, instead of 1% - Half a minute to full heal Light Sabers Padawan lightsaber created Forcepower limit set to 250 Customization unlocked Knight lightsaber created Forcepower limit set to 500 Regeneration increased by 10% Customization unlocked Master lightsaber created Forcepower limit set to 1000 Regeneration increased by 25% Customization unlocked Personal Lightsaber Forcepower limit set to 2500 Regeneration doubled As of right now, all named character light sabers are customizable, however, this will change fairly soon as they receive a pre-defined list of powers! Skill Tree HOPEFULLY Fixed issues where players could dupe their skillpoints - NOTE: this is highly experimental This was caused by our data save intervals between both our servers being lower than the intervals it takes a user to switch between our main and event server, thus, everytime a player switches between the two, reasigned points are still being re-assigned in the databse, however, they have swapped servers where the database is reading their have all their perks already assigned. Job Changes 501st Jet Trooper DC15A replaced with DC15S 41st ARC Trooper limit reduced from 4 to 2 Shock Trooper Rifleman, Medic, and Riot were given the DC15S Jedi Padawan given the Padawan Lightsaber Jedi Knight given the KnightLightsaber Jedi Master given the Master Lightsaber All donator (tier) classes now have access to 'U' teamchat Teamchat added to Foxtrot Group Teamchat added to Omega Squad Teamchat added to Alpha-class Misc Removed the ability for players to suicide, if you're stuck, change jobs or utilize @ chat for help Anti b-hopper patched fork from MilitaryRP Removed the notification announcing when a staff member cloaks themselves Alt + E sit script added Event Server Game Master Tools Turbolaser Creator Used to add pacing and immersion in events by allowing for GM-generated firing paths Hyper Space Spawner Used to spawn Starwars ships as if they just came from Hyperspace Event Maps All those listed below have been added to our pool of maps Arquitens Monsglacia Rishimoon Nar Shaddaa Crashed Republic Venator Atlantis Starfall Outpost

Quiz System Revised questions have been added to the pool, essentially forcing players to choose between THOROUGHLY reading the server rules, or receiving manual training. If this change results in a drop in population, this quiz will inevitably be dumbed down to ask more essential and less specific questions Courtesy of @D_Rose War System Patched issue where donator classes could not damage one another, or cap objectives [BETA] Furthering my lua coding knowledge, I got tired of waiting for our dedicated developer to modify our war system, and took the task upon myself. During objective wars, players should now be rewarded 10XP on tick intervals for holding an objective Players who are defending an objective will be awarded 50% extra XP per kill for doing so These calculations may prove to be too demanding, and performance degregation will result in their removal until our new developer revamps our current war system model! Please remember: I'm still very new at completing advanced tasks like this, and this may prove to be disastrous

What he's trying to do (granted, I genuinely feel as though Vibe didn't write all of this, and had multiple people from his private Discord proof read it and add onto it) is convey that Buddha would be better of resigning from the servers and focusing on himself - furthermore, adding that his repeated behavioral problems make him a less than ideal manager for the DarkRP server. While I do recognize that the actions that took place on MilitaryRP in theory should not affect DarkRP, a manager should always keep a positive attitude and be a representative figure of the community, which Buddha failed to be. While again, I do understand where this post is coming from, it is over-reaching and not something that should be posted in the form of a report publicly. I had already spoke to Buddha about my views of his mental health and the fact that he's very close to a demotion due to those issues (literally, I quote myself "you need to change something if you emotionally depend on a Garry's Mod server to keep you happy"). He'd asked me to allow him to prove himself in the following upcoming month, and as such, my plans were to demote him down from the managerial role with the return of Proggy, and allow him to climb back up from the admin role, where he would not be taking as big of a role in the community. On the topic of mental health, alot of us have issues, hell, why the fuck would somebody like me be working on the servers for damn near 40 consecutive hours unless i'm trying to distract myselffrom something? as you've mentioned in your thread, with the quarantine situation, nearly everybody is affect and suffering in one way or another due to a lack of stimulation from the outside world, and we have to be mindful of the fact. For you to fucking think you're in the right place to start making your own analysis of somebody's mental health and bring your group of friends to strategically incriminate people who voice their opinions on the fact that it should not be a discussion is literally disgusting. Locked and moved to denied. PS I paid attention to every single person in this forum who reacted in an odd way to any positive comments made, or heck, even Proggy's decision to lack this thread to prevent the potential spread of toxicity, NO, AGAIN, we DO NOT need community input on a goddamn thread made about somebody's mental health, if they wish to talk about it, they can. Opening a discussion about it is none of your fucking business. Some of the nominees who I will consider punishing along with demoting Buddha starting May 1st will be: You're an admin on the StarwarsRP server, stop seeking drama x2 You seemed to be seeking nothing but drama/memes out of this. You absolute moron, this is a post about somebody's mental health, it should not be discussed by the community. A part of Vibe, Jackal, Tayler Shrimp, and a couple others' private Discord group (who created this report all-together) who is also banned, popping in out of nowhere to make a response. Interesting words coming from a manager who accomplished exactly nothing, I don't think you're even worthy of being punished now that I know your true colors. You one of the biggest disappointments here, and to think I had invested so much time in creating new content for the community with you is super disappointing right now. This thread really helped me see past some of you people that I speak to everyday, and how disgusting your behaviors can be. Yes, I do think Buddha is a complete manipulative moron, and again, i'm not in the right place to write a statement about his mental health, however, I do GENUINELY believe he has a good heart, which I cannot say for some of you. Many people I've taken note of today seem like they are GENUINELY bad people who are out to cause damage, create drama, and hurt others. Get fucking lost. I don't care if I lose out on a portion of Garnet's playerbase, I would be happier with a smaller community missing some of you. Way to tarnish the rest of my night, i'm off to bed.

Update: all loot tables for our 2x servers have been re-worked to be far better than the old ones, thank you @Wasdin1 for your help. Update is concluded.

Yes, there are doors.

Hey uhh, it's 9AM and I can't get any sleep, so I just pulled through and finished the map migration. All spawns are set up, vending machines and ammo crates are in place. I chose to go with the unique playstyle for this map of 5 objectives ; comms, company, factory, town, and construction.
