Zombies are infesting EE.

Yes, I know this belongs to update discussion. But the cause of this update seems to ridicule us bad enough that it deserves a new thread.

----------

Problem: Zombielocking, zombie potion can be used to make a whole map broken and unplayable. For example, if a player uses a zombiepot in the spawn, there's large potential that the 'spawn afker' is infected, making every player infected when entering/spawning. This problem alone pretty much makes it impossible for players to play a world with such troll issue.

Secondly, the recent hacking which makes all players become zombie is also a problem. This breaks HvZ world, rendering them very unplayable. This hack can also be used to zombielock a world as they all can respawn in right on top of an infected 'spawn afker'.

Solution: Did you guess 'Just turn off potion allowance nub'? Because that is an ineffective solution, there are worlds out there that utilizes jump potion or other potions (Take Station_02.bat for example), doing so will kill the playability/original purpose.

Now, I'm not going to ask Shoe to remove this update. There is one thing we all want: Options to turn off specific potions or to turn off zombies. We need this.

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

There is a way to go around the disable potions. It's even simple to do so.
So everyone with little knowledge about p-code can do so. And then will the hell breaks.

I also joined some world before and got instantly a zombie. I laughed at it and left the world.
Couldn't cry about it. I guess there will always be someone that find ways.

That is a problem I can't think a solution with... 'Sa good thing not everyone knows how, huh?

EDIT: The least my solution'll do is to kill manual zombielockers. Which isn't a bad idea considering the amount of players compared to programmers.

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

I don't know if it's possible to detect if someone is sending the touch code too fast.
But I guess it is possible. Then an easy way to detect cheaters.

I've made my mind up on MrShoe, he must be an idiot. Anyone with common sense would able to work   out these problems before ruining a game. The only thing running in his head must be, "Oh, that looks cool I'll just put in."

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

No serverside checking for potions I guess. So enable it clientside will make it possible to use potions in all worlds. His smart.

AOITENSHI:
That's NEW UPDATE SUCKS ACTUALLY
If you are nearly to win you can came in that nub spawn thing.
I don't like that.
I think we should give a link to the administrators.
So they understand something (MrShoe,BENJAMINSEN AND MRVOID I TALK ABOUT)
Peoples Levels should be crashed for this.!
With no peoples in they's levels.
Help Help Help !
Good Luck

Just have an idle state? So type /afk and while afk, you can not be effected my potions. As soon as you move, your afk comes off?

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

The 20th of February we will ask for a new challenge to add that immediately
A week ago I sended an e-mail about the potions to Julian, and I suggested to turn some potions on and some off.
And he said:

But that aside, I agree that it would be nice to allow some potions, but not all. It is a feature we would like as well.

So I hope he is going to add that fast

You could also make ppl immune to effects the first minute in a world.
But I think turning off specific potions would be way better. Then you could also use coloured god modes in actual minigame worlds.:)

with the command "/potionsoff 9 6" you can turn off zombie potion and potion of curse

They've added the option to lock specific potions. Request for lock.

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

there should be a seperate on/off button for zombie potion but else it's a really nice feature because
1 zombie portion = 1000 zombies

Re: Zombies are infesting EE.

What if /killemall removed the zombie effect?

Too lazy to email MrShoe, so someone else do it please.
