The Garnut Popular Post Nutter 15,155 Posted December 1, 2022 The Garnut Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2022 Chatbox Prefixes Users of different ranks will carry a pre-fix to their name displaying their rank This is particularly useful for staff members trying to notify players of incidents or delivering any necessary information Emoticons A list of emoticons can be found over at: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/previews/index_abc.png Automated Event System BIG THANK YOU TO @Proggy FOR HELPING ME TEST THIS. Twice hourly players will receive a notification to join a team-based OOC event The current modes include: Melee (Crowbar) Melee (Knives) Sniper (Dragonlore) Rifle (AK47 CSGO variants) There are two arenas available for the time being Metal Star Power's Used for all rifle-based events Plank [Large] Used for Melee-based events Features for the future: Parkour event Free-For-All events (non-team based) Pointshop rewards to winners of events Divider wall allowing players a grace period prior to the event starting Prop Limit INCREASED?? With the abysmal amount of attention to optimization put into our server over the last few months, @Proggy brought it to my attention we could increase the prop limit slightly in trade for some FPS. I have finally increased our prop limit the server has had for the last 7 years The range increased by 5 starting at 40 players Up to 30 players Remains at 70 Up to 55 players Prop limit 50 > 55 Up to 80 players Prop limit 40 > 45 Up to 100 players Prop limit 35> 40 Up to full server Prop limit 30 > 35 Pointshop Support has been added for skinned items I will be adding those over the course of the next few days, but here's a starter! 12 3 1 Quote Link to comment
DarkRP Administration Team ChrisRid 900 Posted December 1, 2022 DarkRP Administration Team Share Posted December 1, 2022 Neat idea with the prefix, it's nice for new players to know who's staffing on the server and hopefully it'll show a fantastic presence from the team. I'm hyped that the events are back too! We had a great time before and it will certainly boost the activity during low-pop times! Awesome update! Quote Link to comment

I can't believe this is the 5th recode the event system has gotten. Hopefully it works this time 1 Quote Link to comment

When it comes to silkicons you will unfortunately need to memorize those similarly to memorizing default HL2 voiceline commands. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment

The Garnut Nutter 15,155 Posted December 2, 2022 Topic Author The Garnut Share Posted December 2, 2022 More coming to this update Pointshop Support has been added for skinned items I will be adding those over the course of the next few days, but here's a starter! This is really cool because it allows me to set non-premium point (free) variants to some more expensive skins. 2 Quote Link to comment

The Garnut Nutter 15,155 Posted December 3, 2022 Topic Author The Garnut Share Posted December 3, 2022 The server was acting up after adding in the event system (even without an event running) and the night before - so I preemptively removed it to take another look through the code - or better yet, have another developer skim over it as well I have also decided to temporarily remove Chess to see how the server's performance is - and if it is heavily improved, I will seek out somebody to recreate the chess addon. I apologize for the let down. 2 Quote Link to comment
