So, there's a part of the map that involves passing three boxes that swing back and forth. Ever since the map came out, some players have gone as a Demo and put stickies on the boxes or one the bridge that the boxes pass over and have made them explode, causing the boxes to swing out of control. I've heard that they've been fixed but some people still are able to cause the boxes to swing out of control. The regulars and I have decided that anyone who messes with the boxes will get vote banned for it immediately but it doesn't always pass and they just keep doing the same thing. So, is there a way to keep the boxes from swinging out of control? That would really help because sometimes, the boxes kill other players who aren't even on the bridge.
 
This suggestion has been implemented. Votes are no longer accepted.
I still think the sticky launcher and dead ringer should be blocked as well. Demos mess with the boxes on Safety First which has killed many players before and keeps all the other players from advancing to the next part of the map. The Dead Ringer lets the spies get off the map on certain maps and they waste time because they don't want to kill themselves.
 
It'd be best if the sticky launcher and dead ringer was blocked or something.

Why would you block weapons that can easily be fixed? To avoid stickies colliding with func_physboxes, set their Solid to World keyvalue to "Passes through world". And for the dead ringer, make trigger_hurt deal more damage than the dead ringer can absorb. This isn't a issue with the weapons, it's the maps 'emselfs.

Also, as along we are discussing this map, could the lighting be fixed? I believe Skial DR server uses an edited version of dr_safety?

The stickies were blocked already. The only thing remaining is the Dead Ringer because on certain maps, spies can still get under the map. It's more than one map, not just Safety First.
 
You really don't need any ranged weapons for deathrun do you?


You don't need any weapons other than melee. Some maps have an area where you have to use a weapon to get through. Since stickies were blocked, I just think it would be a good idea for the Dead Ringer to be blocked as well, as I stated multiple times.
