Retakes Changelog

[Kieran]

8/27/2020

 

Achievements plugin "introduced" and reset.

 

This plugin has actually been functioning on the server for a while now but was never documented in the changelog. The plugin currently only has weapon-specific achievement tiers, but I plan on adding more in the near future. You can access the achievements menu by typing !ac in chat.

 

The existing stats for all achievements have been reset.

Changed server name from

 

[SG] RETAKES | 128 TICK | !KNIFE !WS | STEAM-GAMERS.NET

 

to

 

[SG] RETAKES | !KNIFE !WS | STEAM-GAMERS.NET

 

Now you should be able to fully see the T and CT counter in the server name that @Cept For Her added a while ago.

Adjusted retakes ratio constant so when there are 8 players playing, it will be a 5v3 in favor of CTs instead of a 4v4.

Added Deadtalk plugin. This plugin allows for players to toggle deadtalk on and off.

 

If a player has deadtalk enabled, when they die, they'll have 5 seconds to talk to their alive teammates in order to give callouts. After 5 seconds deadtalk will activate. The player will no longer be able to talk to their alive teammates (but still can hear them) and can talk to all dead players.

 

If a player has deadtalk disabled, they'll only be able to talk to their teammates.

 

To enable/disable deadtalk, type !dt or !deadt in chat followed by a 1 or 0. 1 will enable deadtalk, and 0 will disable it.

 

To view your current deadtalk setting, you can either type just !dt or !deadtalk in chat.

Removed CT church spawn on de_inferno for site B. It was too broken.

Swapped out MyWeaponAllocator plugins. You may find that the format of selecting guns is a bit different now.

 

Added forcebuy rounds.

> These rounds have selections of a bunch of SMGs and deagles.

> There will now be 4 pistol rounds, 5 forcebuy rounds, and then full buy rounds for the rest of the map.

 

Removed shotguns.

Removed CT church spawn on de_inferno.

Removed  MyWeaponAllocator for sg-weaponallocator. The new plugin reintroduces the Loadouts we use to have, a better version for forcebuy rounds and a lot more! Huge thanks to @Cept For Her for coding the plugin. 

 

Changed forcebuy rounds. 

> Will occur at random after pistol round with a maximum of 4 force buy rounds. 

> You have the option to choose an SMG with armor (and a kit if CT) or an upgraded pistol with armor and grenades (and a kit if CT). There is a chance to receive a scout instead of an SMG or upgraded people. 

 

Removed  removed deadtalk_player. The plugin did not serve its purpose and will be further looked into. Until then, dead talk will be the same as before. 

 

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

 

RANKS HAVE BEEN RESET
We have added a new rank plugin called Level Ranks. There are several new features that come along with the new plugin and allows us to be a bit more flexible when it comes to point distribution. Since this is a new plugin the current values are not absolute, they will be changed as time passes. Until then feel free to play and give comments about the rank plugin.

Changed the server name from [SG] RETAKES | !KNIFE !WS | STEAM-GAMERS.NET - > [SG] 24/7 RETAKES | !KNIFE !WS | STEAM-GAMERS.NET

Removed the point gain from planting the bomb. 

Changed the point subtraction percentage from 0.8 - > 0.5. It should be easier to gain points now. 

 

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

 

What's being looked into: 

• Maybe adding Ancient
• Ranks appearing on the scoreboard.

• Loadouts not saving

• Increasing rank gap

• Maybe remove SMGs from force buy rounds and replace it with galil and famas

Added ranks on the scoreboard. Thanks to @Strayyz for the screenshot. 

 

Changed the point subtraction percentage from 0.5 - > 0.3 and you will now gain 2 points instead of 1 if you were round MVP. It should be EVEN easier to gain points now. 

 

Removed point gain/lose for picking up or dropping the bomb. Since you cannot technically do either there was no reason you should be receiving points for it.  

 

Removed SMGs from forcebuy rounds. You can now select an upgraded pistol, scout, famas (CT) or a galil (T). 

 

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

 

What's being looked into: 

• Maybe adding Ancient

• Loadouts not saving

• Increasing rank gap

• Adding !rs/!resetscore as a Donor command.

Changed the point values. You will now gain 2 points per kill and lose 6 points per death. 

 

Removed point loss from suicide. 

 

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

Changed the point values (again). You will now lose 4 points per death instead of 6. 

 

Changed the points to reach LEM, SMFC and Global to help monitor how rapidly you guys gain points. LEM is now 4000 points, SMFC is 6000 points and Global is 10000 points.

 

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

 

What's being looked into: 

• Maybe adding Ancient

• Loadouts not saving

Changed the point values for hopefully the last time, you now lose 5 points per death instead of 4, which will hopefully be the perfect middle ground

 

Enabled Paintballs which you can now buy through typing /store in chat, with store enabled I went ahead and  added a 2x Credit Multiplier for this weekend as well

 

Added Custom clantag plugin for supporters

Supporters can now use /tag to get a static custom clantag or animated (sliding)

 

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

What to expect in the future:

Ancient?

!rs/resetscore

Increasing rank gap as players gain points (farther down the line)

8/20/2021

 

Changed points per base kill from 2 to 3 making it easier for those who don't get multikills to gain points rather than lose

 

 

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

Whats Being Looked Into

Adding Ancient 

Increasing rank gap

Maybe !rs

Added  a reset-points plugin, basic supporters+ can now use the /rs or /resetscore command(s) to reset their in game K/D (This does not affect a players actual stats only what is displayed on the in-game scoreboard)

 

Temporarily swapped sg-weaponallocator.smx with MyWeaponAllocator.smx while we wait for the problem with loadouts not saving to be fixed. This plugin unfortunately has less customizability but it will do for now. Also good to note that forcebuy rounds with this plugin do not include galil or famas and are rather just SMG rounds.

 

Added de_ancient after lots of hard work and campaigning from @the baconator

 

I have some more plans for the future so stay tuned!

the plugin is back - sg-weaponallocator.smx is taking its spot back on the server and will replace MyWeaponAllocator.smx, weapons not saving is fixed and this plugin has a lot more customization when it comes to loadouts

 

stay tuned for what's to come
