Thread: Some weird glitch!

Ok, so lately when I've been playing on the WC3 server, for about 3-4 weeks, there's this queer glitch happning. It's not just me, samid said it happened to him as well. What happens is, when you die, you get transferred onto the other team. Except you keep spawning dead! What the hell is that?!? First time it happened, it said

PTB: Transferring Amphibious One to the CT's

Then the next round, I was STILL a terrorist, but spawned dead!

Does anyone know or have heard anything else about it?

thats been happenin for ages.

that happened to me over 2 months ago.

its like worldspawning i think. normally happens on cobble and dust i think

but like happens very rarely for me. its so annoying though cause u have to rejoin server cause u wait a round and ur still dead and not playing

once it happened to me twice in a row.

its so annoying it says "cant change to t's - team full or ptb wont let u" and it wont let u join "ct's cause its full or u cant join same team or ptb wont let u"

:roll:

happened to me a couple of times. you stay dead and have to reconnect to the server.

What i think it is (and this may be wrong), is that there are only a limited number of spawn points on any given map.
When the amount of players exceeds the amount of spawn points, one person dies without spawning, and due to the way that this is set up, stays dead (the command to re-spawn isn't run on their client), simple fix (usually) is simply re-connect, nothing else you can do about it.

So, you'll only ever notice this happening on certain maps (those with few spawn points), and only when the server is really full.

happy to be corrected,
-D.

@gent, you said dust and cbble - well, it's happened on Prodigy and Italy as well for me.

Remy, this has not happened to me on any other server :shock: I figured it just had something to do with this server in particular.

well the other servers you play on, do they have ptb on??

I wouldn't play on them if I did :lol: But no, this is the only server with PTB. That's why I am reckoning it's PTB

troy..... what gliche? and someone said before that it might be the amount of spwan area of a map. well it cant be that cause in maps like dust or dust2 or cooble the maxium spawn in those maps are the MAX players on cs which is 32 people. maps liek awp and bloodstrike are only 20 player spawns ... but even if it ended up with not enough spawn points then u would spwan but ontop of another player which u end up dead....

What's that you say? You're Knight's retarted brother? I'm starting to think Knight can type fluently well. Where's Jay and his spellcheck. You should also assume that noone knows who Troy is, and address him, neigh, ME by my screename which people know me by.

More to the topic, yes, I think it has something to do with PTB, because like Nemesis said:

-Yes, I fixed his spelling.

Which brings me to a furthur question, will GU 1.6 be running PTB. A while back, within a month of installation, I didn't like it. Only the other day, I realized, that when the teams are uneven, most people will make NO effort to change. On the other hand, most of the leet people are more than happy to change. I think with the more balancing in 1.6, the CT's have much of a chance, and so maybe we don't need it anymore.
