I was seeing a lot of ?ban's throughout 17th Parallel, 3 days here, 7 days there.. you know I was like wth a ban bot would do wonders vs a ban from the zone. Here is the method to this amazing madness: You violate a rule - you will be verbally warned by a staff member, that staff member will then put a ban on the bot with a type 4 (-t4) which stands for Warning. Depending how many times you have been warned will change the length of that warning for staff. There are 3 other kinds of bans this bot will deal out, a Silence (-t1), Spec-Lock (-t2) and Shut-Lock (-t3). If you have had 5+ of those kinds of ban's not including Warning. You will the be banned for an ind…

I am honored to annouce the promotion of MMaverick to Zone Smod. MMav has done so much for the staff and zone during his time here in the bot development, hosting, and coordination fields. His professionalism and willingness to work hard is a testiment to his talents, and this is why he has been selected for advancement. This promotion marks a change in the staff structure of 17th Parallel. From now on the Smods will act as Senior Moderators, guiding lower staff members and directly !@#$%^&*isting in the zone's day to day operations that Pernille doesn't get enough credit for doing . Sysops will in turn back away from the direct spotlight, though emerging where an…

I've had to explain to some first time players how to use certain items and activate things such as Stealth or Cloak. Maybe you should put those basic commands back in the F1 Help Menu since its missing. Maybe a periodic message letting players know about the F1 Help Menu would be nice also.

As some of you might have noticed we are still having bot problems , especially the event bots. The 17th Parallel Bot team are trying to resolve the problems as soon as possible. Fortunately Explody Thingy has offered to be a permanent host for bots for 17th Parallel as soon as he gets his computers. So when we have the bots hosted by Explody Thingy all bots will be back up 24/7 and they will be updated more frequently. For now, thank you Explody Thingy :swift: -MMaverick

17th Parallel Soccer Event idea I feel a good idea for an event would be actual soccer event, for example no obstacles but 2 goals each side of an arena. Unlike SblBall it could focus more on the soccer side of things, rather than trying to mix it with hockey, like you can’t get behind the goal or the face off at the start. Having all the things a soccer match would have, swapping of ends at half time, after you conceed a goal you start with the ball from the halfway line, one team starts off with the ball at the start of the first half, the other team at the start of the second half. You would have a Goalkeeper, Defender, Midfielder, Attacker, each having their o…

I've found that often one freq just dominates the other for game after game. Usually this is because one freq has too many players dueling or turreting, rather than playing soccer. Is there a way for a bot to look for shutout teams ? I'd figure maybe after one freq wins 5-0 three times in a row freqs get randomized. Is this possible, or even a good idea ?

-*BAD WORD*-o...I am new to SSCU 17th Parallel...I have come from the far lands of SVS. One of the beginners guides for Chaos Zone claims that if you are good at SVS you will master just about any other zone. This was true until I came down to this zone. Quite a challenge it was. I love this ships, the map is awesome, and gameplay is super-addictive. As for the events? Genius. Pure genius, Especially Mothership. My favorite ship is the Warbird...with powerful bombs, speed and equipped with X-Radar capibilities it is both a tough fighter and an agile scout. Well I am Void Stalker, I am somewhat familiar with some of you such as Naedhaha and Rifleman, and am excited to me…

Rumble Bot
by Rixsta- 2 replies
- 744 views
Im not sure if this has been brought up before but i was just wondering about the rumble bot having the ability to put people back in if they've lagged out, like in 2v2 arena, via a command. I guess it makes sense to have it so im guessing there's a flaw somewhere that makes it impossible or immpractical whether it be players being bale to abuse it, or that it just isn't do-able because of one reason or another (maybe the multiple freq's makes it a practical problem for the coding). Anyway would be useful if you could get it done because i've been in rumble on multiple occasions and we've had to drag in a mod. Be very useful anyway. Cheers Rix

Hi everybody Just dropping a line saying I haven't forgotten you lot since I gone back to study. No doubt I'll be back during the semester break teaching humility to some uppity n00bs or sitting in spec -*BAD WORD*-ing about how I can't play SS on the university network. See you round.

-*BAD WORD*-o I'm BooYaaH from the netherlands, I have some suggestions about new possible ships and a shipchange for the terrier. The terrier has a forward machinegun and multifire shoots 3 wide directions... My idea for the multifire is : make the bullets shoot forward and backwards when multifire is on with the slower rmps offcourse! And a idea for a new ship: make a ship shoot in 12 directions with multifire.. something like a spike grenade veary fast a lot of bullets but not that a strong ones. It would amuse me if something like that could be integrated with fair surviving chances against the other ships.. Tnx for hearing me out. Greetings The Man.
