Bug: Scores?

[Cameron]

Happened twice, one team gets 50 or above and then it doesn't end, the 2nd get gets above and it ends.  Not sure if its a bug or anything, one was on the er33t servers and the other on henrys.

First Cap for end wins

[Cameron]

huh?  No, we capped, and it was 51 and the game still played.

cuz if the game ended, they we're holding a flag, meaning it would have become a tie, so it is then "overtime" until the scores change. It's a debate in 'DP match Rules' in the Paintball sub-forum. And yes, its a flaw.

Watch the demo and you'll get what I mean, its around the 10 minute mark.

It is 49:45, each team has a flag (cap is meant to score 5 points) and the second team caps. It is 49:50 but the first team has a flag still.. if the round ends he should get 2 points for holding the flag, but It would mean that the first team wins. So there is playing a little round-overtime.
Well I hope its like this .

It doesn't normally happen like that though.  Multiple times in pbcup_pforest both teams have both flags on a race to win, and it doesn't do that.

No, it's not a flaw.  It's specifically programmed for that to avoid ties.

[Justinph5]

It should just end for the one to cap and get past 50 first tho.

[jitspoe]

And what about time limit match ends when the 2 point bonus would tie the score?  Or are you saying there should be no flag bonus at the end of the match?

[Justinph5]

If the other team already reaches 50, no. The rules for a CTF map are, first team to reach 50 points, or until the end of 20 min's.

I guess you could put it this way: Give flag bonuses for the end of the match, HOWEVER, as CTF goes, the first one to reach 50 wins, no matter what flag bonuses give, since reaching 50 first is one of the main goals for CTF.

[jitspoe]

The match ENDS after 50+ points are reached.  The team with the most points WINS.  That's how the rules are programmed into the game.

red team won.... nothing more to say .. more pts wins thats all

Why bring back this thread just to say that?
