<div class="IPBDescription">Fun! - or not..</div> Long story short: Theres a bug/exploit which lets you get into the command chair with your weapon out. I'm not going to go into detail here as I'm sure everyone will fark about trying it. But, admins, you probably know my email from the forum signup so drop me a line and I will give you the full picture.
Scuuuzzzeee me if you already know about this, but it's pretty obscure.

    what? I don't get it.

    Get in the CC with your weapon out? How the hell does that work.

    Hmm... I've done that... Rather odd. You can see your gun hanging in front of your view as you look down, and it's semi-transparent like when you are an alien and you use your 'flashlight'.

    I've done it, know why it happens, and can do it again. Not sure if you can actually fire at ground targets but you sure as hell can fire. You can also reload but you can't switch weapon or anything. The transparancy thing is odd too. General wierdness.

    *bump* drop me a forum message, or maybe I should forum message the admins, I don't know. But it's a bug all the same.

    Heres another CC bug: you can use it through the ceiling in bast, don't know about any other maps though, and its kinda helpful when more than one person wants to be commander. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    acknowledgement always helps, just wright up some response and copy and paste it to any "bug / exploit / glitch" thread. where you are already aware.

    The only command chair problem I've seen is it's low framerate. It causes me to get major lag everytime I try to command with more than a couple of people playing on a server. But maybe that's a fix in the works for the next patch.

    This isn't really an all out pressing bug, just an exploit.

    Wait... can you actually aim and fire? Or would firing be pointless since you're in commander view?

    the fix is for you to spend $200 and upgrade your frickin computer! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yes, you can fire, but I have yet to find a place where you can hit something as the commander is noclipped into the ceiling and hence usually surrounded by massive concrete.

    It's not very abusable, more annoying, as the weapon blocks your view.
