Syrith Posted November 12, 2007 Report Posted November 12, 2007 TW kills all turrets you have attached. Umm... does it use something with splash to kill them (so it also kills the lanc)?Also, does point defence count as a turret? Quote

Umm... does it use something with splash to kill them (so it also kills the lanc)?Also, does point defence count as a turret? I imagine the "turret killing" part is analogous to what ?id does to turrets... it just kills off the turrets. According to the Moderators, Point Defense (PD) is banned in the Transwarp Hub in Sector 8. Hence, if your Lancaster has PD, it is banned from using ?tw. Quote
tcsoccer and neptune Posted November 12, 2007 Report Posted November 12, 2007 (edited) pd should count as a turret Edited November 12, 2007 by neptune171 Quote
cdrom Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 that sucks, the bty reset thing, i would rather have the old tw Quote
Suicide_Run Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 To begin with, I dont think TW was ever made for bounty-ers to use. Its meant to be fast transportation from center to any bases and vice versa which has better advantages than ID/Jump Drives. Quote

Leviticus Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 The original use of TW was to get to a base fast. Now it seems the use of TW will be to quickly warp away from trouble at any moment, at any place on the map. Quote
Aceflyer Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 The original use of TW was to get to a base fast. The problem being the much cheaper ID Drives were pretty much better in every way than the 'original' TW (or at least the previous version of TW). Quote

Now it seems the use of TW will be to quickly warp away from trouble at any moment, at any place on the map. Well you can't warp from inside a base, or from the hypertunnels. Just outside of a base and in center. Note: If you enter tw with flags, it should explode you. At least if you enter with 20. Other than the ability to take flags through tw, it's fine. The most you can do is get a good rec, and who cares if someone gets a good rec? The only problem is flags, its lame to chase a flagger and when hes about to die he warps to tw. I know flags in tw is illegal, but i dont think anyone respects the rules unless they get blown up. Quote
Dr Brain Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Posted November 24, 2007 Why do you say taking flags through TW is illegal? I left it off the explosion stuff so that it COULD be legal. Quote
DaRuler Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Why do you say taking flags through TW is illegal? I left it off the explosion stuff so that it COULD be legal. Can I ask why you chose it to be legal? I just don't see it being anything but a really lame way to runwin. If you want to warp at last second to win you can set a port, which is harder when being chased than to type ?tw and you win a flag game. It's like once someone has all flags and not in a base they win automatically if they have a decently quick ship. I'm just wondering why there can't be an engine failure if you use tw with flags.

Furthermore, when I used ?tw with flags I was told it was illegal about a week ago, so all the mods should get on the same page Quote
Dr Brain Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Posted December 12, 2007 After the Hub change, anything you can do in TW without hacking should be legal. Flags in TW: legalPD in TW: legalKilling annoying buggers in TW: legalBall killing in TW: illegal, but we don't currently have a ball...Mining TW: legal, but probably pointlessSummoning in TW: not possible Quote
