| 00:38.18 | the_map | out of curiosity, does that antidote flag that drops your bad flag have a name? |
| 00:47.22 | blast007 | we call it the antidote flag |
| 00:50.13 | the_map | if, for whatever reason, I wanted to give it to a player, how would I do that? |
| 00:50.24 | the_map | <PROTECTED> |
| 00:50.25 | the_map | ? |
| 00:51.10 | blast007 | it's a completely client-side flag |
| 00:51.51 | the_map | oh |
| 00:52.13 | blast007 | which is also why clients lock up if the ground is completely covered and they try to create an antidote flag, because it can only create them at ground level, but never gives up (though maybe that was fixed, dunno) |
| 00:52.35 | the_map | covered? like with a pyramid? |
| 00:52.42 | blast007 | like with anything |
| 00:52.58 | blast007 | even water |
| 00:53.09 | blast007 | especially water |
| 00:53.32 | the_map | yeah, dihydrogen monoxide is killer |
| 00:53.38 | blast007 | for 2.6 we should make it server-side |

| 03:18.35 | DTRemenak | I thought we had moved antidote generation to the server already |
| 03:18.38 | DTRemenak | maybe that was 3.0 |
| 03:19.06 | blast007 | checks |
| 03:20.22 | DTRemenak | hmmm...nope, guess not :( |
| 03:20.25 | blast007 | still looks very client-side |
| 03:20.49 | blast007 | though it does look like it gives up after 100 attempts to find a spot |
| 03:21.09 | DTRemenak | client-side antidote was what kept us from checking drop messages. thought we'd addressed it. |
| 03:21.42 | blast007 | it probably was in 2.99.x |
| 03:21.49 | DTRemenak | nope, I just checked |
| 03:21.56 | blast007 | oh |
| 03:22.24 | DTRemenak | it's still handled by LocalPlayer |
| 03:22.37 | blast007 | kinda strange it wasn't... given everything else, that seems like the low hanging fruit |
| 03:22.44 | DTRemenak | yeah |
| 03:23.24 | DTRemenak | though I guess most bad flags could be ignored on the client side anyway, without anyone being the wiser |
| 03:23.46 | DTRemenak | 'cept Obese |
| 03:24.22 | blast007 | and right/left turn only, forward/backward only, no jumping... ;) |
| 03:25.18 | DTRemenak | those would need some explicit checks, but yeah, they could be done |
| 03:25.27 | DTRemenak | NJ especially should be obvious |
| 03:25.35 | blast007 | the right/left/forward/backward only kinda never made sense to me... it's a tank... :) |
| 03:25.55 | DTRemenak | would you prefer "broken right tread" "broken left tread"? ;) |
| 03:26.11 | DTRemenak | "stripped reverse gear" |
| 03:26.17 | blast007 | not really, since that's pretty much "sit here and spin" |
| 03:26.25 | DTRemenak | yeah, doesn't seem like as much fun |
| 03:26.36 | DTRemenak | and heck, OUR tanks jump ;) |
| 03:26.51 | blast007 | rocket jumps are a thing! |
| 03:27.09 | DTRemenak | Bouncy could be checked too ;) |
