20 consecutive frags without death - 20 points per frag

So basically someone can gain 400 points from doing twenty kills without dying? Seems a bit excessive to me compared to your suggestion for how many points should be given for capturing the flag, unless I misinterpreted what you said and you meant 20 points per frag after getting twenty kills without dying.

I personally believe that someone should get better rewards for capturing the flag rather than killing, since some people (myself inclusive) usually delegate themselves to solely focusing on capturing the flag and not caring much (if at all) about fragging.

-- And I don't know why, but CodeBlocks likes to screw around with spaces and lines. >:P

That's probably because of the different formatting styles for the code in Odamex. It seriously needs to be standardized.

P.S.S. Is it possible to change your forum/wiki name?

The admins can change the forum name, but I'm not sure if it also updates the current wiki account or if it just creates a new account.

You stated obvious information that is well-known. Do not do that again.

While I'd love to help participate in this, I would like to point out that we do aim to stick close to doom2.exe gameplay physics as closely as possible. We don't want to remove any game-affecting bugs like wallrunning, silent BFG and pseudo-random seeding. We put in effort to reinstate these bugs, and I'm sure we'd hate to see them removed.

I should also mention that there's roughly 100,000 lines of code. This will not be an easy task and is definitely a long-term project, and will require a separate branch.

One more thing, the first task for this will be to remove any reference to ReplaceString. denis mentioned ages ago that ReplaceString can cause serious memleaks. There's only 1-3 references left, but they are incredibly hard to remove.

The main obstacle is that a high-quality CTF mapset has already been released for Odamex that uses Red/Blue. I'm not sure whether AlexMax or Ralphis would like their maps modified, not to mention making an updated version well after the original release will be troublesome if the filename remains unchanged.

We could name it Saturday Night Bugfest! I totally did not rip off Skulltag's FNF name convention, no siree.

INSERT CODE HERE!!!!

It's perfectly readable and does not require proper spacing, so there's no need to place it in a code tag. And don't even start with that backseat moderating business. We don't need it.

Or perhaps tourney's will be run IDL style which I find to be a very good idea.

You never heard it from me, but rumour is that the next IDL season will be using Odamex.
