JP I am begging you to RETHINK the changes in ver 56 with Globals.

I just discovered I am unable to even play TW on this version.

MOST OF MY AT KEYS TIME is spend HOLDING Twarp Lock or Pwarp Lock and talking on COMS to setup attacks.

NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY
will I ever play on this version.

I hear removing the GLOBALS, or whatever the change is, was to STOP A BUG, well this not only stoped a BUG, whatever bug that is, but it RUINS my Game play competely.


HOW long can you HIDE on a PORT if your script cant UPDATE while on a Global prompt, running Stay Alive....

BIG BAD FIX, JP I hope there is another way to fix whatever BUG you blasted by removing Globals.

I have to remove ver 56 off my server, do a fresh install of ver 55 for testing.

Sad day for me, with all the SCRIPTERS taking over again, old macro users like me just fading fast...now I cant even HOLD PLOCKS how the hell am I ever going to Beat script users if I cant HOLD LOCKS :(

ALL I need is SUB, HAIL and FED Globals to remain competitive...
But with out the ablity to HOLD a MANUAL Pwarp LOCK or a Twarp LOCK, and be able to 'stay alive' on that prompt is THE END for Res Judicata.


See lots of peeps use scripts to catch traders on the GRID, well I do it the OLD FASHION WAY, with Pre LOCKED LOCKS. TO run manual Delay'ed Drops on Traders.....

man I dont even look for bugs and expose em as soon as I find out about one that ruins the game.

SAD SAD SAD

IS IT SAFE?

IS THIS THE END FOR RES JUDICATA?

Ya scripters dont care about HOLDING manual Plocks or sitting at keys ALL DAY waiting
for that ONE FIG hit that might give you a chance at a KILL, without POWERFUL SCRIPTS doing ALL THE WORK....where is the SKILL/Talent of actually 'playing the game'?


Whats really going on.

Can I interject something here...

From time to time updates need to be made. There are always going to be updates that people are not going to want. Take a game for example that there might have been a big graphical issue within the game. At the same time, there might be alot of CD cracks/hacks for the game as well by private individuals. The company releases the patch for the graphical issue and in turn cuts out the CD cracks.

Let's say you have been playing a game made by some big corporation and they make some changes; there are going to be people who don't complain at all and then you will have the people who don't care, and you have the people who care, but don't say anything and just find alternatives to play the game.

Take my situation for example...
I have a scanner hooked up to my server that hosts all my web stuff, including TWGS. When I scan, the scanner takes priority over everything else. The company that makes the drivers has all the downloads for windows 98 online to download. I also finally found the drivers to make it work for XP. BUT, here's the catch... You can't download them online. They have to "SEND THEM TO ME FOR $20" on a CD. I guess the point I am trying to make is that it could be worse here. (Let us game ops be thankful JP isn't charging for updates...[:)])

Res, you sound inteligent, so I know I am safe when I say "You'll figure something else out". Don't let one little setback cause you not to play, cause that is childish.

Just my 2 cents.

Outlaw, I dont think you know much about TW, or you are 100% script user or whatever, but to REMOVE the ability to USE COMMS and HOLD WARP LOCKS is just too big a change to get over.

I wont ever play a game on ver 56.
You are most welcome to do so without me....


I have also heard, through other channels that, JP will adress this issue and do a more proper fix to KILL off the BUGS, without losing GLOBALS completely.

Also Gypsy...I didnt attack any one with this thread, why do you POST in RIDDLES to me?

sigh...

Hey Res.. ck's got a nice pdrop script. :P hehe

Seriously though.. can't we have a revision .57 that allows for fed/sub/hail from the plock prompt? Then everyone wins - old school and new

You're blowing this entirely out of proportion. The ability to hold a lock and talk on comms at the same time is far from necessary. You're throwing a hissy fit over nothing. JP will do whatever he thinks is best for the game, and shock of shocks, whether or not res can talk while he has a p-lock doesn't really come into the discussion when bugs are being fixed. I can almost guarantee that comms will not be added back to the p-lock menu. Not because it spites you, but because that's one of the places the globals are buggy.
