All servers going down for map resets, plugin updates, + more (updated)

[ChadTheDJ]

So before the weekend rush we are doing about an hour to 2 hour upgrades on all of the servers before the weekend rush. Here is what is going to change:

• Plugin updates + new features:
  • Donor cooldown issue fixed! (Yay, no more 2 hour cool-downs! )
  • New and improved point system (Now renamed to bounty points or just "your bounty")
    • Now 2.5% of your bounty gets taken if you get killed and will be awarded to your attacker.
    • You get 25 bonus bounty for winning the games!
  • Battlelogging fixed
    • If you log out or /suicide in combat, it treats it as a kill.
  • Vote for map now installed! Pick your favorite maps during lobby phase.
  • Bounty system now installed: place a price on someone's head while spectating!
    • command is /bounty <username> <amount> (minimum of 10 bounty points)
    • You can only do this command while you are spectating and it uses YOUR points.
    • If the person you place the bounty on wins, they win the points!
  • Bug fixes and exploits fixed.
• Replacing AntiCheat with modified version of NoCheatPlus (don't make it mad)
• Resetting all maps to new updates from Vareide's build team.
  • New 48 tribute game for Survival Games 1! (Due to popular demand)
• New lobby and Parkour course
• Chest's are better balanced (the hard chests now don't give you just sticks)

I will be working on US first then will be taking EU down next. So this will be a longer than normal downtime as it takes time making sure everything is current and updated.

Update: We are testing the new plugin with US1 and will push it out to all of the servers after we we are sure of stability.

Update 2: We found some bugs and making some small adjustments to the bounty system. Will be pushing the updates after the new fixes get tested.

Update 3: After working on fixing some updates we found some more instabilities where we cannot push this update to the servers today. We will shoot for tomorrow as we need to be sure everything is working. Sorry for the delay!

Battlelogging fixed

• If you log out or /suicide in combat, it treats it as a kill.

Yay!!! haha
No more people cheating the system hehe
I have a question also as to what this does:

Bounty system now installed: place a price on someone's head while spectating!

• command is /bounty <username> <amount> (minimum of 50 bounty points)
• You can only do this command while you are spectating and it uses YOUR points.

If you place a bounty, do the tributes see that a bounty is placed? Or how does it work?

The bounty idea really sounds cool, and the battle logging feature also.

Maybe if you guys knew the science. <.<

 

[The_Soy_Man]

One question, do the player's know when someone has a bounty?

 

[Blamph]

Maybe if you guys knew the science. <.<

What do you mean? Isn't it just when you hit said person once and they log out you get the kill?
