It took forever to remember how to get this working with the fast download thing. I've been at it for a couple of days now. I should write instructions for this for the future. Anyway, due to popular demand and my curiousity, CG 1, 2, 3, and 4 can use the translocator now! Let me know what you think about it.<br><br>Hermskii <p></p><i></i>

I'll definitely try and stop by tonight. what more can you ask for from a server admin? thanks for all your hard work Hermskii.<br><br>I can see it now.. drop a disc behind some box, run out into the open to get a guider's attention, and when the missile gets close, alt-fire and transloc yourself out to safety.. this sure sounds like fun on Crane.. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>forget the redeemer, the translocator will be my primary weapon on Crane.. should be fun sneaking up on a guider and hit him with the almighty telefrag! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>- clemmentine<br> <p>____________________________________________________________<br>...

Can someone try chucking a translocator up onto that column in the front of Crane? you'll have to run out on that girder and maybe use the jumpboots to huck the translocator higher. <p></p><i></i>

I'm trying to think of those couple of maps that I always wished had jump boots. It might be fun to teleport up to those spots. <br><br>But telefragging? Urrgghhh. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Back in my PII 300 days, when I was on a bad 56k ISP, I came to loathe telefragging as there was always some broad band wiennie who would take advantage of his 7X-10X faster connection to get me, rather than duke it out with me honourably. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Herm, you've changed the nature of the game.

First Impression: The bots stand around a lot now, just holding their translocators. It's easier to frag them, and easier to escape their return fire because it takes them a second to switch to their redeemer. <p></p><i></i>

Wow, I'll say! I went into CG3 earlier tonight, and again just now, and those bots are deadly. If they lock their sights onto you; you're dead. They all run so fast it's like they have the relic of speed, and they dodge and feint constantly. I cannot frag these guys very often any more at all. I think they need to be dumbed down a bit. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>I saw the same behaviour at CG2, one bot actually dodged aside at the last second as we ran towards each other around a blind corner and I trained my redeemer on it. It's like fighting the Xan bot, but with redeemers. Leave these one's alone for a bit, this could get interesting. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>BTW, I noticed yesterday and today that CG4 has no map vote, and that it may start you out on Deck 16, but it always goes to DM Agony next, and then gets stuck there. Same map over and over again. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :| --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/indifferent.gif ALT=":|"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

my impression of the trannys:<br><br>it adds a very interesting dimension to the game, but the bots stand around more and kill themselves a lot less. that means the kills are harder to come by for us human players. the introduction of the translocators definitely changed the game. from the standpoint of Redeemer Arena, I think it's better without translocators, though having translocators every once in a while is a lot of fun.<br><br>had a lot of fun with translocators on Crane the other night. yes, you can get onto that column in front of Crane. the beam closest to the column is too low, but the next beam over (which is higher) works well. stand at the end of that beam, aim your translocator a bit higher than that column and shoot your disc over until you see the light on the translocator appear on top of that column. make sure you see the disc land on there or you may leave a small crater down below. oh yeah, got down to street level and found out that the car lights are just colored rectangles.. how boring..<br><br>- clemmentine<br> <p>____________________________________________________________<br>...
