When is the real .6 comming out?

[Jonny]

I would suggest adding text into the installer that says to boycott a particular clan's servers in big red letters, but if you don't think that would work then take a while longer to lock it down, especially if the clan is ignoring your wishes.

What are SSMs BTW?

[[R-DEV]eggman]

SSMs are "server side mods".

So stuff like vehicles that respawn in 10 seconds, player respawn timers at 5 seconds, etc, etc. Stuff that can have a dramatic impact on how the mod plays and, as a result, on the type of player the mod attracts.

We clarified our position that we don't support server side modding with v0.6. But these jokers are insisting that they will prop up a modded server if they feel like it.

So I have to develop a licence agreement and a new method of distributing server side code to ensure that folks are aware of the licence agreement. That agreement effectively "loans" the code to administrators and gives us the right to revoke the loan at any time and for any reason and to use whatever means necessary to prevent use of the code by organizations who do not have express permission to run the code.

Will the community be able to make unofficial maps for 0.6 with all the content locked or we'll just have to stick with 0.5?

Then you can sue them if they break it, get big money, and donate $2000 computers for everyone !!!

nothing is going to stop custom maps, we encourage custom maps 100%!

Off topic,
I was wondering, how do you set up teams and kits with 0.6, tried a map for 0.607rc1 and there was no army/kits to choose from...

look at the init.con files for the maps in 607

Lock it down. Sue them if they try anything. They could turn great players away from the mod with some of those things, egg. Tell us what clan it is, too, so that we can boycott them anyway to show how serious we are about this not being an 'arcadey' game.

Sounds like legal stuff... I really hate that... the only part of modding/game design I would never touch.

Why are you worried about some asshats in a server where 99.75% of the PR population wont play anyway?

Oh well, its your mod, Good luck getting all the loose ends tied up.
