I am SO SICK OF THIS #$@$&%^@#$

Come to think of it a teleporter type unit could be very cool.

Gadget.

Get Factory positions.

Get Units in square of Footprint.

If not your Team, teleport them out, far enough that they can't just drive back in.

Run once per half-second.

Its called Factory Antihax and it already exists.

Doesnt seem to work perfectly though.

This hax is a hitsphere related issue. The prevent lab hax gadget does not look at units outside the factory as there is a much simpler solution for them.

It actually works every frame. It was initially every half second but looked really weird. The frame update has no noticeable slowdown.

Prevent lab hax works on units inside factories. In this hax the units are just outside of the factory but inside the factory's hitsphere. I think the sphere is still used for targetting. Someone needs to reduce the size of the sphere.

We can do this easily with s3o.

and with 3do. custom collision volume plz?

The emp tacnuke has 3 missiles. You could emp the jeffies for long enough to reclaim and rebuild the lab.

No no, the solution is clearly to aim the Starlight back and forward over the factory until the laser hits the jeffy. Or if the factory explodes, well, bonus, that kills the jeffy too.

Teleport... How far exactly then? :D

Into the next nearby factory.

I DONT ACTUALLY ENJOY BROKEN GAMES THE WAY YOU ALL DO.

You mean a hitbox? It has one, we were just saying that.

[Tribulex]

hmmmm bump (still an issue).


Its obviously not that hard to fix. Its not a problem in any other *A mods.

[maackey]

Well, CA *is* open sourced. If "Its obviously not that hard to fix" why haven't you already submitted a patch to fix the problem?

It will get results faster than whining and complaining.

[Tribulex]

I already vowed never to contribute anything but models and textures to CA. Its a long story...

[luckywaldo7]

Maybe at least give a list of units with this problem.
