Quake III OSP Kill/prevent campers?

[Giraffe }{unter]

Is there a way within OSP to prevent camping?

I think it may have been a mod, but I could have swore there was an option to kill campers after they camped for a set number of seconds?

[Canis]

I doubt it. There's a way to remove idle players, but nothing that can distinguish camping from other things in the game.

[ek]

No feature like that in OSP. I forgot the name of the mod that does it, there is one I believe.

[plained]

q3 really making its long term mark ey?

i been thinkin bout it latly.

i miss some of the q3 boys hehe

the guys have been playing every night it's been fun going through some of the hot maps...

Speaking of hot maps, where can I get some of Foo's maps?

Can I use OSP with another mod?

Nope the guy running the server is a little tired of these two guys who camp constantly,

Camping in quake is like fucking a chick with a dildo when you have a perfectly good cock..

Its pointless and a waste of everyones time

I remember seeing a 'camping check' on a baseq3 server once...
it might of been a pb implimentation, not sure, dunno what cvar
it might of been. But after standing still for too long it printed a
message of sorts, 'you will be kicked in the next x seconds if
you don't start moving!'

gh, is the server private? (only for your work chums?)

That's the idle-player warning.

[dzjepp]

Well that's not on default is it? Do you know what cvar controlls that?

[plained]

I'll have to look into that, What happens is there are about 6 or 7 good players, 2 of them are mad campers and the get into these obscure places and camp the entire match. Then we keep getting newbs all the time, one of our Software engineers bought Q3 in bulk from some Gaming Cafe closing down. most of the Software engineers play after hours every day on our LAN... Sorry game is LAN only

We have a great setup the server admin keeps a simple intranet page with the map packs for his server because of him my Q3 Directory is almost 2 gig. But every game he manages to get 80% play on really good maps

[brisk]

Heh, all the maps I (used to) play have ways to counter campers. Besides, a stationary target is an easy target

Corkscrew mods has an anticamper, which automatically kills someone if they stay in the same spot for more than x amount of seconds.

OSP doesnt have this. You cant really prevent campers, just learn how to deal with them.

There was a mod (might be the one your tlaking about) that killed you if you stayed in a "section" of space for X number of seconds.. that way even if you moved slightly to prevent it frmo killing you, you still died if you were in that ammount of space..

[^misantropia^]

That would be InstaUnlagged:

set insta_inactivity_chance 5
set insta_inactivity_radius 10
set insta_inactivity_spec 1

[^misantropia^]

Do you know what cvar controlls that?

g_inactivity -- defaults to zero, set to the number of seconds after which an idle player should be kicked.

If they are there on a LAN with you, why don't you just tell them not to camp in person?

Or take them out side and beat the shit out of them?

Just released one for the Geocomp 4 competition:

Comments more than welcome. It's designed for CPMA hence the odd item placeholders where green armors appear.
