isupreme Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 When teams are uneven i will change to make even sides. But i lose my creds and that sucks. Why do we have it like that? I suppose its something to do with when people change in other situations? Is it abused? i.e. I wants me creds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fffreak9999 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 By default, we reset your credits to the team default when you change team, this is to prevent a large influx of credits to any one side. The only official way to transfer credits to another team is through a forced team change by admin (and even then, they can choose to reset your credits). Now this doesn't prevent some players getting round this, by donating to the enemy team but this action can be seen as Team Hampering [Warning: do at own risk, most servers will ban/temp ban players for Team Hampering] if you remove your credits from your team just to give it to the enemy. Resetting credits is far safer on team balance as well, since the enemy team is gaining a player (and the default credits again), and your starting team is losing credits and a player), which balances out the loss/gain a fair bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Arts Staff NodSaibot Posted July 29, 2019 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted July 29, 2019 I think there is an argument to be made for people being able to keep credits when swapping. Punishing people for swapping teams, such as in the case of a team imbalance doesn't make sense to me and I would support a change to keep credits when swapping. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isupreme Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 would a basic delineation be possible? If the teams are imbalanced the money can transfer. If they are not it won't. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomUjain Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) FPI do move people over via !team2 on IRC if the teams are 'unbalanced' and the person volenteers; this allows you to keep all your credits (we have a clear defination in our rules what we classifiy as unbalanced) however.....very, very, very rarely does this happen as the players never want to be on a losing team. I've pointed out this problem in a previous post, typically between 1 to as high as 10 (on a full server) players will rage quit / leave when they are on the losing end of the stick. Allowing credits to move on swap would only compound this problem as (99% of the time) players move to either stack with friends or to shift to the winning team, not the losing team.

isupreme Posted August 3, 2019 Author Share Posted August 3, 2019 The game allows players from a lower player count team to transfer to the higher player count team? Thus making the situation worse? I wouldn't have imagined it would allow that. am i understanding that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently if you swap (without an admin swapping you) you lose all credits, no matter what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only allows admins to do so, thus trusting the admins it would never make the situation worse. Through the default team swap, players can only swap to a team with less players, or if somebody on the other team is also willing to swap, thus keeping the player amounts equal.
