An interesting thought. The only problem I foresee is that a player goes AFK......and then forgets to come back and gets kicked for being AFK But this seems like a good topic for discussion. What do others of us think?

That. Is. Amazing.

I tend to agree. If they looked at their own silos before leaving their base, then they would know for sure.

Ah ha! Glad you figured it out!

Might be good info to put in a "help" thing ingame somewhere...

@chopbam and @raap WE NEED THIS haha

As I understand it, the use of the C4 logic was what fixed the issues it had previously with clipping terrain, etc. Without creating completely new logic for it from scratch (which nobody wants to do), there likely isn't a fix that will 100% satisfy everyone....

ehh...give me some time haha. IIRC they aren't VTOL (that was the V2-launching ore truck ) but I think they have super speed or something...? I'll find out

@Raap obviously this guy^ isn't a twat Pfft, who needs missile silos. Just add respawning neutral demo trucks, but also make them VTOLs and add a set of helicopter rotors to them You guys really should check out the old .9935 test maps.....really

Manya. .9915's newest unit

Yes yes yes! That all sounds great! U wot m8

@chop's last pic: Thats on KOTG behind soviet base right? I've seen it done but never tried myself. V2 seems to be a great deterrent either way though

That just means that nobody is ingame at that time. But be sure to give the launcher a second or two to pull the player count because it isn't always instantaneous

So you want to use the phone's internet connection to play a game, correct? Are you talking about our game TSR or the original Tiberian Sun? I would imagine that the original TS game would probably be playable over dial-up (though this isn't really dial-up here), but you would probably have a great deal of lag trying to play any FPS game over that type of connection. The reason is that while you might be able to get good bandwidth, the latency would be fairly high. (bandwidth is the size of your pipe, latency is how long it takes stuff to travel through it)

What?

Amen to that!

In my situation, I have many Terabytes of "cold storage" currently available to me (I'm a computer technician and I have a TON of hard drives ok? ). If anyone manages to hit the motherlode here but doesn't quite have a place to put it all, let me know. I might not be able to get it all put up publicly on the internet ASAP, but at least it won't be lost. And you! PLEASE let me know if you get it haha. I'll help grab some stuff. In fact, let all of us know!

wow... This might be worth moving to the News section!?

Don't park in the enemy base. They don't leave parking tickets!

Not shut down, just another crash. Should be back up now Also, welcome back!

Try it now

Funnies has actually been renamed to "Rehab", which seemed more fitting at the time. Get yourself too many warning points and you'll end up in "forum rehabilitation"

Fraydo is correct. The playercount tends to snowball upward if just one person decides to join the empty server. As for it always being empty? If you had looked a couple hours before your post, you would have seen 15 people before I joined. This is a normal occurrence too...

Thats definitely a strange one. Maybe someone who's a guru at the innards of RA1 (such as nyerguds or cchyper) could shed some light on the how and why behind this?
