ZM test server

[ZERO]

The test server for the zm update is now online:
208.43.70.234:27016

It is the exact same address as regular zm just port 27016 instead of 27015. Currently it supports 10 slots to allow for enough people to test it at once. Note that it is a test server and that features will be added to it over time. The reason is so that we can focus on just testing one thing at a time.

Right now we are just testing the zombie class settings. The goal is to get the zombies the same as they are in the current zm server. Once that is done I can then get to work on restoring basic features like commands ect. Note that for now the commands are not the same.

Please post in here any changes that need to be made for the classes. Also remember that this is for non escape map settings. We will be working on zombies for escape maps AFTER we get these base classes working correctly.

These are the categories that need the most testing:
Speed
Jump Height
Jump Distance
Regeneration

We need to ensure that for each class those settings are the same as they are now. This is a little hard because the numbers are different so I need you all to test the classes out and report back on what needs to be adjusted.

Waiting for people to join...

The new menu is harder to navigate but not bad...

I am confused about what human/zombie class overlay is...

Why is the zmarket disabled?

Changes:

The fast zombie is too fast....definitely

The jump on the fast seems right but it's hard to tell...the new *jumping* is weird

Yea the new jumping allows you to adjust the height and the length so it is going to be strange until we can work out the settings. Also I hope to make the navigation easier with commands that just jump to the menus you want but we will see.

why are we going to have a separate setting for escape maps?

it seems to me that you'd just be screwing everyone up by suddenly changing all there specs for an escape, why not start tweaking it on an escape, and then a cade to find a good middle ground?

By separate for escape maps I mean that there will be no fast zombies.... but we could also discuss altering the other classes to better balance for those.
