Freeze Tag Mode

Post by animuson »

Ideas, comments, expansions, suggestions, and other words that could be used here.

From Launchpad:
Basically, when a player dies from suicide, core dump, whatever, they will remain in that spot 'frozen' with a small zone around them (the size can be customized by the admin). Once a teammate passes through that zone, they will be unfrozen and either continue playing from that spot or respawn at an available spawn point (also add a zone_spawn_distance option so they don't respawn inside a fortress zone, for example, and ruin defense, etc). Also add a separate walls_stay_up_delay_frozen option. Can probably be expanded further, that's what we thought up on IRC.
I hope this gets implemented. I think it would be a lot of fun, but only a few people have commented on it so far.

Yeah you're right, this topic was made 2 weeks ago. That makes it spam when we make (arguably) on-topic posts to bump/encourage the idea.

my mistake

Can we have a like button? Or a [ + ] thingy?

(Sorry off topic) but "Like" for the record.

I believe that to truly love is the ultimate expression of the will to live.
