Declined Suggestion for Bottigers 24/7 Idle 104.153.105.93:27015

[iStruggle to Run it on Mac]

I think it would be a good idea to have a couple more exits from spawn so not everyone goes out almost the same route but the main reason I'm here is because I've seen players spam demoman grenades and make it almost impossible to get out for 15 seconds or something.

They would shoot demo grenades into enemy spawn from the center of spawn where the cap point is. Those grenades do damage and spread out a little bit. Why not have spawn protection on until a player exits the bottom hallway or through the side. Another suggestion would be a door so no projectiles can get through.

I also think it would be cool to add another hallway that leads to the boxing ring and maybe increase the jump duration or like mod the gravity a little.

 

[JayDee]

no

It's an idle server. If you actually want to play, go on an actual game server.

 

[Coffee Cosmonaut]

no

I think JD makes a good point here.

 

[iStruggle to Run it on Mac]

Well I guess I'll just rent a NFO server, get all the necessary plugins and trial and error it with the map.

 

[JayDee]

you do that

 

[shoooooooooooooooo]

You're more than welcome to make any changes you'd like to the map on your own, then submit it here for review. We don't have people to map secondary maps like that on demand and it's really not worth dedicating time and money to have someone make it for us.

You guys gotta keep in mind the server is now largely a mess around server now that idling has been rendered virtually pointless years ago by Valve. A good portion of people go there to dick around and those people help keep the server up.

Because of this I don't see why his suggestion should be taken less seriously, IMO.

If somebody did put in the time and effort and then submitted it, would it be taken under a lot more consideration? Would the user-base vote on it? The admins? Will it just be up to Bottiger? Not that there's anything wrong with either method. I'm just curious.

I spent 80% of my time playing TF2 over several years dicking around in the server, it was always more about having fun than idling for many people

I'm sure it would be put up to a vote, then if Bottiger agrees it could be implemented. However, if Bot finds glitches or sees that the server population goes down, it would quickly go back to the previous map

Does the map not deflect grenades like trade_plaza?

The spawns don't protect from any grenades or projectiles.
