OVERSPEED!!!

Post by Salticid »

When you go really really fast, you can go through other peoples walls in Norms server! :lol:

That'll be handy!

Less is less, more is more! More is better and twice as much is good too... not enough is bad and too much is never enough except when it's just about right!

4 Lives... Yes, I remember that, as for where the source went, that's another question...

Doing "overspeed" is something along the lines of 4 lives... At least, and interrupt at the same point in the code.

Well, that was easier than I thought thanks to subbys HUD code showing me exactly where to get speed from...

The following is a paid advertisement:
----------------

Introducing Tigers Network Overspeed Classic. Same settings as Classic Play. But what's different? Go faster than 35m/s and bust through walls? Have you got the balls?

Note: no actual "busting" occurs. Speed necessary to bust thru walls may change in the future depending on user feedback...

----------------

Now... Someone wanna play and give me some feedbacK?

Yup, works perfectly. In the following attachment, there's what I call A Speed Grove (not groove.) It's the overspeed version of a speed tunnel, or slingshot. You hit overspeed and keep going up & down... You can get very high speeds this way, but, if everyone goes into it, the game can continue for a while.

Yeah, sorry about that- there was an issue with SERVER_NAME. It should be all fixed now. Either that or it's still Unanmed Server... If it is, just connect until the MOTD welcomes you to Tigers Network Overspeed Classic ;).

jumping spiders rule. i also have admiration for the magnificence of the web-builders, but jumping spiders, wolf spiders and trap-door spiders really own too! :D

but the real question: do you know what these spiders are and how to use them? :D
