cycle_rubber <number>

Without the "<" and ">"

Just experiment with different values. Durka Durka land uses 15.

There's a setting called CYCLE_RUBBER. Set it like

Code: Select all

CYCLE_RUBBER -skill_factor
That minus is mandatory; otherwise it wouldn't have the right relation to skill.

That's supposed to be replaced by the skill factor the admin chose.

It is to my belief and opinion
that the predators solution
to his beneficial indecisiveness is
Cycle_Rubber -Skill_Factor
Donka Donka Land
utilizes such a practice
however
the hazardous elements
of a obliviously incremental diagram
and malicious system is quite vast and
in the distant stretch of a quotient
hardly mediocre
for the commoners necessities

you will find instructions in the wiki (wiki.armagetronad.net) how to affect a server either through its configuration files or through the console. I wouldn't change anything in the configuration files until I'd tryed it a few times from the console. Errors are so easy to make.

Jonathan, I guess the skill factor is something like 0 for beginners, 1 for intermediate, 2 for advance and 33 for elite players (otherwise know as leet or l33t)?

Negative skill = positive rubber

Turn delay of 3 seconds? That just changes the game to something you're not used to. I'm sure you can beat people if you're better at it, making it a game that isn't so dumb.
