Field training boost in multiplayer events

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 I have just added a substantial field-training boost for all multiplayer events. The boost is based on the number of veteran subscribers active in the event.  The reason for requiring veteran subscribers is to avoid players cheating the system with fake gangs. Let me know how the boosts look when you've tried it. They should be noticeable. The calculation isn't linear (so the difference between 3 and 2 is not the same as the difference between 2 and 1). To be exact, it uses a Power function with exponent 0.6 Players  Multiplier 1          1 2          1.5 3          1.9 4          2.3 5          2.6 6          2.9 Thanks again to 80s for suggesting this. (Note: as always, field training doesn't happen at all in ladder, paintball, or custom events - to avoid exploits) ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Nov 10, 2020, 12:13 pm Last edited Nov 10, 2020, 12:18 pm by *sam*

If so- would that stack? ......................... vet wv sssc elmsautumn e2g triangle1 deathrceL1 gateautumn race1 northernsummer deathrce1 Posted Nov 10, 2020, 1:46 pm

It's after you've done a certain number of scouts. I don't recall how many.. 5? 20?  Basically everyone who isn't brand new. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Nov 15, 2020, 1:39 pm

Mad Mike the mad mad crushers Darkwind Guru Anarchists Faction Group: Subscribers Posts: 2,900 Joined: Aug 1, 2007 have to have some way to prevent multiple players joining a scout then dropping out and letting one player take over control of all the cars getting the bonus for themselves and the other players without the other players playing... one player could get all the bonuses for all the other players players have to be in the scout actively playing and remain in the scout to get the bonus ......................... vet wv Posted Nov 18, 2020, 5:07 am
