weapon auto-pickup

[IPS TOONCES]

Hi I run 5.0.586 Deathmatch with gg_dead_strip enabled. In the short amount of time it takes for the weapons to disappear when someone dies, a player can run over a weapon and if they have weapon auto-switch enabled it will automatically redraw your weapon. It gets annoying if you run over 2 or 3 dead bodies with guns in a row because your gun keeps switching back to itself making you unable to shoot. Has anyone ever seen this?

It sounds like either you have something set wrong or there's a bug. It should never do that. I wish I could tell you what but I just don't know.

Don thanks for the reply

Am I in the correct forum with this thread?

(attn: RideGuy)

Also my problem still remains with players not being able to join a team after a mapchange to a map using random spawnpoints. Everyone is forced into spectator until an admin can change the map. This only happens when 16-18/18 slots are filled. The spawnpoint files were created using the gg_spawn_add tool and I created 50+ spawnpoints for each map, those being standard gg maps like shotty, funtimes, deagle and snow. Where is the best place to post this issue/possible bug?

This forum is fine for your question. I just wish I knew the answer.

got allmost the same problem, it drops the weapon for like 3sec before it dissapere when u die.. so the prob is especially when u got knife, then the knife is kinda dissapereing for like 3 secs when u run over a dead body..

you mean it switches to your primary, making you have to switch back to your knife. correct?

I think that's right

At least pistols have done this to my server as well. So something is going on =/

I'll post more details when I can. You can test this out on my server at 129.186.89.83

I would like to bump this thread as this is a pretty bad situation. I haven't been on my GunGame server due to school for awhile now but recently I've been getting on more and I realize that it's horrible. I've even had some people playing with me saying that it was bad.

On version 586, the pistols get cocked as you go through a weapon even though I have dead strip at 1. The weapon doesn't go away when a person dies and so in small maps, this is why it's horrible when you are trying to shoot.

Also, I get on knife level and again especially if it's a small map, it switches to a gun I picked up so I switch back to knife and then keeps switching to the weapon I picked up as I go over a weapon. I didn't win a game because I was too busy fighting between the knife and weapon switching.

I'm willing to help the devs out test this further. Also, my NEW IP for the gungame since we moved our server around is: 129.186.199.249 or you can use our hostname: gamerenegades.stuorg.iastate.edu

same for me - I haven't been able to play much for the past couple months due to school. I connected to my server a couple days ago and the first thing I noticed when running around with my knife was this problem. Should we post this as a bug?
