Pools are already easy to see. Big maps are even easier. They are one of the largest blips on your radar and you will never get scrap packed so tightly you get confused. Large maps are just a matter of searching for them, and that will always characterize them. We aren't going to do bzradar for pools in multiplayer too.

I've actually put a randomiser in my MPI-dll for placing pools, if the option is used. Keeps maps somewhat fresh eventhough you may have played them zillion and one times.

Red Spot - This is very cool for me. I look at searching for the random pools as a big part of Battlezone II mpi. G66 has feature like this but only works on a few of the maps anymore. Is there any way you could give this randomizer information to Red Devil to implement in G66? I believe in the past when I've asked him to make this available for all maps he said it would be very hard to implement.

Protrector, if you want a better computor enemy to play against on mpi please try the G66 mod. Join me in a game here and there.

New Sly hack, in a game with a lot of unknow guys, like a fake SUB-0.
It's not the first time he crash the loading (and that never happend when he is not in the game), but first time i have this error message:

He was using the nickname "Kaitlyn", and he still insulting me every 5 seconds.
My disapoint is to see every people ingame is supporting Sly and Tom (we was 10, with Snowdog for example).

The part downwards that you never scrolled to is more important than what is currently visible.

Even better, go onto a website like pastebin.com and paste the contents of battlezone.log then link to the paste.

[Vassili]

If you think that can be used by GSH...
In all case the log was deleted by my relaunch of the game.

[Nielk1]

you... you actually posted a screenshot of the error?

No one... no one has ever done that before. They just... post the error text. The stuff we need.

[Vassili]

oh, it's amusing to see you will present me like a dumb, just after the irc lies, not before...

[Ded10c]

Could it not simply be that you crashed while loading? Did you consider that Sly might be completely uninvolved?

[Vassili]

Like i said (and you not contest before you will support Nielk1) is: my game never crashes untill he is in the room.

[Ded10c]

The rest of the log would be helpful in proving that. Next time it happens I'd recommend you post it before launching again.

The reason I comment on this is that given the massively increased stability of 1.3, I find it hard to believe there is an AV exploit running around again. This is the first report I've ever seen of an incident such as this occuring in 1.3, and if Sly could do such a thing I'm fairly certain we'd have had more by now.

[Red Spot]

There is still a lot of talk about a 'lag button'. Wether thats the truth, I dont know, and I'm not really the person to figure it out.
What I do know, for sure, that some within this community are skilled AND driven to find exploits and ways to annoy others. Who knows what they have found. They have a tendency to only report what they see as a flaw in the game, not what may actually be disrupting (to others).

[Nielk1]

NO AHADLEY. THERE IS AN EXPLOIT TO CRASH THE GAMES!?! I SLY2 EVIL MC'IRC_LIES KNW ALL THE AVS! HALP me CRASH THE games.

You'll want to be careful talking like that, someone might actually take you seriously.

I know, and that brings me nearly to tears.
