    i thought 1.04 had some way to give a team with less players more resources per node. maybe that is a throwback cvar too.

    Zel i think it is a built-in handicap/"balancing" feature where marines gain more res per tick based on how many people they have on their team, not a cvar persay. Hence all the balance problems with marines on servers with 20-32 players. I think we need to know more about the new res system to speculate about handicaps.

    That handicap is a ballance-variable affecting the res-income-formula .

    The balance variable gives a team with fewer players more RPs/tick.

    no he meant tha HLSW tells you who is on what team, and what class they are (commander, gorge, etc)
    only works on servers running a MM/AM plugin(logmod i think its called) rather cool, in fact its one of 2 reasons i have hlsw on my box now, for normal pubin i still use ase thou

    I thought that handicap was already in 1.04?

    Nope, already in 1.04. And aren't you not supposed to talk about these things?

    1.04 has mp_teamresourcehandicap if that's what you mean. This would appear to be a new variable.

    yes localhost2600 got what i meant and hlsw shows kills and all that stuff in real time. but i am pretty sure to there is some kind of resource handicap in 1.04 already. maybe an admin could shed some light so there is less confusion <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hmmmmmmmm
    Would that mean the team balancing is going away? 8 rines VS 5 Kharaa = uber-res-gorge?!
    The Gorge is dead, long live the gorge!
    I like it tho, would make it a LOT easier when teams are unbalanced <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    Great idea!
