<div class="IPBDescription">movement script that woul help skulks</div> ####ORIGINAL THREAD NUKED BY POSTER####

Was nessecary, but thank you Beast for attempting to bring light to the other dark a tortured minds that roam this newsgroup.

NOW

before you go off on a flame war:
1) I did not tell anybody how to cheat
2) I am not suggesting the game be made more like CS or DOD
3) I do not think NS needs a stamina meter
4) I did not accuse anybody of hacking
5) I did not say 11-0 in the first 5 mins means you are cheating, just uncommon.
6) I know there are good players, I was accused of cheating as a sniper in TFC more times than there are stars in the sky (loved picking off those medics in mid-conc jump <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> )
7) Four out of five skulks surveyed preferred chewing regular marines than HA Marines.


I think tha about covers it

A kind friend (co-worker) who remembers this problem told me that there are quite a few different ###EDITED### scripts out there which closely imitate the erratic side-to-side behavior of the script mentioned above AND that this is more than likely what I was seeing, not the old TFC script. He's probably right, I have been searching for an hour on the net and havn't found it yet, but about 500 different ###EDITED### scripts abound.

*sigh* all the more reason to eliminate ###EDITED###

    I don't remember that script in TFC, but then again my memory sucks. I haven't noticed any skulks with that behavior yet (but I also wasn't looking for it). I will be on the look out now though.

    ns needs a stamina Bar!
    And I am the one Skulk that prefers chewing HA marines to regular marines.
    Ive seen LOTS of HA guys getting really lost then they are surrounded by 3-5 skukls.
    -> they cant move or hop anywere and they of course try to kill one or 2 of us but he WILL DIE and have Res lost.

    I believe (but cannot prove) that there are cheat scripts in use, but I agree that they are rare. I have seen skulks exhibiting leap-like ability during the initial skulk-rush at the start of the game (no 2 hives should mean no leap). I have also seen skulks leap past two marines, who both died as the skulk passed them. How is that possible? Can a skulk bite two marines at once if they are close together? Can a skulk bite 6 times in less than a second?

    Often, when another player demonstrates near-godlike ability, I simply praise him: "Man, you are uber, etc." But when I think someone is cheating, I regrettably move on to another server. Thankfully, there are lots to choose from.

    Oh god, anything BUT a stamina bar....I don't want ns to turn into CS or DoD...no offense to any fans of either of those mods, but the way that bhopping is handled via a CS-style jump or a stamina bar really kills the fast-paced environment that NS is right now. I agree that some changes must be made to the bunnyhop (specifically, the silent marine bhop, or a change in the speedcap), but it should not be entirely eradicated.

    I know, It's so simple WHY would anyone every make a script.. blah blah yadda yadda

    yeah, and you don't need a gun to kill a skulk but it sure helps........

    I've heard this arguement a hundred times in TFC, CS and DOD forums. ###EDITED### <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    PLEASE LET THE THREAD END HERE AND NOT TURN INTO ANOTHER BUNNYHOPPING DEBATE. I feel that a conclusive explanation to my original question was found, no need for this thread to continue

    i missed something kilmster

    who was whining? he was talkin about a script that was much worse then regular bunny hopping .... did you even read the thread at all kilm?

    I find it hard to take anyone seriously someone who a cites 'concjump scripts' as a problem in tfc. They are utterly useless. It shoulds like your just worried about strafe /bunny jumping which isnt even a script.

    Wow. Reading comprehension has dropped a few notches in our education system. I took that into consideration with my original post BUT it seems despite my dilligence in thwarting lame responses and baseless accusations I still somehow missed a few disclaimers for the comperhension impaired. My apologies, <b>obviously</b> my fault, here they are additional disclaimers to unclutter your congested and confused minds:

    6) I did not say I was a member of the SanDawgs
    7) The ###EDITED### script mentioned above actually had nothing to do with ###EDITED###, it had to do with moving around when airborne. "###EDITED###" was just the name people gave it.
    8) This thread was / is not about bunny hopping

    And since it bears repeating:
    PLEASE LET THE THREAD END HERE AND NOT TURN INTO ANOTHER BUNNYHOPPING DEBATE.

    Thanks for the thought, WEC -- don't worry, occasionally smart people read the posts, too. (: Anyway, by your own advice...
