It was our first test of the grapple and a number of things will be changed. But it was a lot of fun.

Looks really sweet, can't wait. Will there be an option/command to restrict the grapple? Or can you only get via a command?

Its a weapon currently so the mapper would have to give them to players.
What we are thinking is a console command that allows the grapple to attach to anything, or only assigned areas. Sorta like the barnacle gun that can only attach to those slimy surfaces.

Ah, cool. Again, can't wait. :P

Do you have a picture of what the model on the weapon will look like?

also does the grapple attack the edges of the skybox?

The grapple defiantly wouldn't grab the skybox.
As for the view model, I am still trying to figure out how it should look. Should it be a gun with a trigger? Or a rod that shoots the grapple from the end.
I was thinking I would go with the rod idea. Reminds me of andromeda.

the crossbow model but edit the bolt or something that looks combine since they repel.

I'm for the rod idea.

I think you should make it somewhat like the hookshot!

A hookshot model would be awesome! Especially if you can get chain sounds like from zelda.

Hmm. This sounds interesting. How does a body issue a command to an NPC.

In OC_frozen whatever there are 2 NPCs that just stand around unless monsters come to them. When it says team following, they don't seem to follow.

p.s. Now that flamewars have moved elsewhere I may stick around another month to see what develops. I may even pay for my server for December as well.

That sounds cool. I was wondering about allowing players to get to areas that aren't really there.

Would that be a flame? If you had read my responses, you would have seen that they were to two different messages.
