Implemented Surf: Improvement suggestions

Just wanted to suggest a few things that could improve the server.

1. Add a "No Knife" Option, so you only see your screen, no knife and no hands. A lot of servers already got this and it would be very nice.

2. Change the Point system. Chat ranks should be decided by your Rank on the server. For example gabe Rank #1 , Godly rank #2 - #1 0, .... Because too many players already reached max rank and its way too easy to reach the max rank. Another solution would be too higher the points for certain ranks...

3. Add a plugin for Start and Endzone, so you see where the end is.

4. Remove the styles Auto and Auto(No Limit). There is no difference in this styles (Only the bhop in auto no limit, but thats minor) and people only use it to farm points. Most players get more confused why they are here at all.

5. Add a sound plugin when someone breaks a wr. A lot of other servers also got this plugin, when someone breaks a server record there is a sound that everyone can hear. On Surf Heaven servers for example the sound "Holy Shit" plays after a new wr.

Would be nice if some of this thingd could be added, as i think they all would improve the server.

 

We try to host our servers with as less as possible plugins to reduce the server load. But a look at this can't be that bad. Let's hope noname has a response to you as soon as possible

 

An active player from the server just offered to provide a free teamspeak for the CSGO: Surf Skill server. I personally think this is a nice idea.
Only thing that needs to be done, is to add a server message with the ts info, so everyone can find it.
And i cant find a point why this would be a bad idea since its free anyways.

Have a nice day, eyeryone

Sorry i didnt know that there already is a ts. Then my question is, why is it not advertised on the server?

 

It is advertised on the tf2 servers dunno about cs: no go

 

The problem with it is that almost nobody uses it activly.

 

False. People use it daily.

 

So if there already is a ts, could we add a server message with the ts info to the CS:GO Skill Surf server plz?

 

Well, you have to talk with n0name about that and tell him what it could improve.

 

Ye, i will do that.

 

Since it is posted here, no need to message him on steam.
All he will say is that he won't have time for it now and you should make a forum post about it so he will take a look at it once he has time.

 

Being the lone operator does take a toll of your time

 

*Edit to my first list:

6. Some end zones need to be redone. With redone i mean simply make them higher. There are a few maps where you only trigger the timer when you hit the floor, as a result it can happen that you just fly through the end without triggering the timer. Solution would to make them higher, so that they always trigger. Cause now its more luck than actually skill based.

A few maps i got in mind that neeed new end zone:
surf_dynasty
surf_inspire
surf_the_gloaming_rat
surf_ing

would be nice to see this fixed, i could also help out if something is unclear.

 

not much we can do, if the map maker updates the map n0;name might update it.

 

I am pretty sure, this hasnt something to do with the map maker. The end zones are not defind by the map, they can be set individualy and it shouldnt really be a problem too just make them higher.

 

Thanks for the update n0:name, looks like everything is working, havent found a problem.

 

BUG REPORT

There is currently a weird bug, and i dont know what exactly is causing this:

If someone is in spectator mode and writes something in the chat, his message appears twice.

This only happens when you are in spec mode, in normal mode its fine.
But this should be fixed, cause it is spamming the chat when every message a spectator writes shows up twice.

 

Well, there was an update today. Let's blame Valve.
