Subject: [hlds] Suggestion for new FF Mode
While many players enjoy Friendly Fire being enabled, for public servers FF
requires some type of TeamKill Manager plugin, since it is impossible to
have enough Admins constantly on both teams to properly police a pub server
with FF enabled.
COD4 has a terrific FF mode they call "Reflect Damage". It works quite
simply. When FF is enabled and the RD option is selected it is impossible
for any player to damage a teammate.
100% of the damage a player attempts to inflict on a teammate is instead
done to them, including killing themselves if the damage is greater than
100%.
Several different HL2 mod authors have attempted to create a plugin to
create a new Reflect Damage (or mirror damage) option, however they have
discovered that if the damage inflicted is greater than 140%, the teamkiller
will succeed in killing their teammate.
Since it is stil possible to kill a teammate, then it becomes necessary to
add some type of TeamKiller management system to this type of plugin.
All of this can be eliminated if the developers can simply create a new type
of FF mode that would nake it impossible to inflict any damage on a
teammate, with 100% of any and all damage being reflected back on the team
killer.
Thank you for your consideration.
