The guy you saw get kicked was me, and to clarify, no, i do not use any kind of scripts, cheats, odd binds or hacks. I dont even use custom models. What you saw right there was "coming back to NS after a few weeks of inactivity and getting banned from a random server"
Rather than to express my low opinion of the server admins and whine about the ban, i decided to just move on to another server to avoid posts much like this one.
Anyways, i have never heard of the "leap exploit" maybe its something that came up while i was gone? Fact is, a good player can easily switch between leap and bite in midair and score 2 hits in a successive combo...
Or maybe i just h4xx0r to t3h m4x and i should get a hardcoded ban into NS
BURN!
On a side note, I got accused afew days ago of leap scripts, "somehow" in mid air pulling out bite and killing people. It's called quick hands, and playing with the same key setup for all games for 5 years <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
it still has false positives but im working on a way to totally eliminate those.
if you see it just once ignore it, if you see it like 4-5 times in a row then they might be using some exploit.
Seriously though, when did people start saying leaping is exploitable? Last time i checked it was perfectly fine to be skilled as a skulk...
Anyways, it's the ultimate combo, and leap to bite hit.

Some people suck at switching weapons (like me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->) and get scripts that auto switch back to their last weapon when they use leap (not like me.. I suck and know I do).
there is a script out there that allows you to constantly leap withought losing energy as a skulk, meaning you can leap without the sound, and without the damage, and do it at a perfect level of stamina... which means you could make a script to leap, not lose any adrenaline, make a bite, and then leap back again... Can anyone say turret feast? Or even worse... "speed hack" (even though it's technically not a hack)
It's an exploit that has recently surfaced. This is the server admin's attempt to stop it. Right now this is the first day the "patch" is out and has already been noticed as buggy. voogru said he planned on fixing it.

First I've heard of this. Wierd. I can't think of how you'd pull this off - I haven't even done this by accident.

Yup.... Ive gotten the leap icon once... but switching to bite in midair has gotten kills without number.... all it takes is fast fingers.
If you're looking for an exploit.... i saw an onos kill ten or so marines with paralyse.... it acted almost like charge... but like he could "shoot" charge as paralyze
I've played with Rico a couple times, no way he hacks ;p He's just pretty good with the skulk.
I'm sure most of us have been told that we hack one time or another. Just sore losers =/

When you use charge it keeps going til your bar of energy reaches zero, so if you use it, then switch to paraylze, anything you kill with charge, when you have the paralyze weapon out will count as a paralyze kill.
So all the guy was doing, was charging and using paralyze so people couldnt run.
That's no exploit, that's just HL misappropriating the true responsible for the kill. To do it, just charge then switch to paralysis. All the kills you will get while charging will be paralysis kills. You can do the same with primal scream too.
A skulk can have fake xenocide kills too, even without a third hive. Just leap and switch to xenocide (even if it's red). If your leap kills someone, it'll appear as a xenocide kill.
Buddy, were also talking about scripting leap with biting and such. Yes, I know there's an exploit with leap. However, <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->don't post before you have a clue what you are talking about.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'm not a big fan of this. We do know what were talking about. So please.
<!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->no matter how long you've been playing the mod, that doesn't mean **** with regards to "I haven't seen it, so it can't exist". I guess if you've never seen someone shoot another person with an ak47 in real life, that means it can't happen... <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I sense some hostility. However, I believe your analogy is out of place, but yes, just because some people haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Although I believe some people who replied do have more intelligence that you believe.

The only exploit we were denying was the one with the Onos Charge/ Paralyze.
Don't be so quick to critisize, because you'll find yourself open to critism as well.
When a 'possible exploit' thread is started, people want facts, not "OMG you suck n00b" or "i get accused of hacking all the time cause i'm "elite""
I see no reason to your behavior here, i am merely posting my opinion on a thread that directly affects me. I never said that "if i havent seen it, it doesnt exist", in fact, i clearly said that i had been away from NS for a few days so i did not know about any such exploits.
Also, i do read the server forums from time to time, but tell me exactly, why would i constantly check them if i don't run a server? I see no logical reason for wasting my time in such a way if i don't own or run a server.
I would just like to ask server ops not to run buggy scripts in public servers please, i am not demanding it in any way, because i know im in no position to demand such a thing from the owners, but it would make you look bad if you had a buggy script banning legitimate people from a server for apparently no reason at all.
BTW: Voogru, you might want to add something in that script that tells you WHY you are banned, what got me mad was getting kicked from a winning game for no apparent reason at all, and to top it all off, it crashed my computer and i had to restart. Very annoying i must say.
This is the thread I was referring to.
As for my servers, I didnt know it was buggy until it was run for a couple of days. I have turned it off <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> you should have seen all the people that gave me a hard time when the mod dectected me. LOL Anyways , the pluggin can be set to ban or kick after tripping so many occurances. voogru, if the fix cant be fixed the perhaps add option "nsa_leapaction 3" as to just inform without taking action. or wait, I guess this can be rigged with the the other cvars.
