Zombie classes

[Evil]

Why is it that every time I join the server, I keep getting switched back from a Predator to an Infected. I keep having to type '!zclass' just so I can change back. Every map I have to type that because Sometimes I'm still a predator, but most of the times I'm an Infected.

Is there anyway we can have cookies on the classes we choose. I don't want to have to keep type '!zclass' every single time I join the server.

I get this too :/

it's because certain classes are disabled on escape maps, so you get pushed to a different one. i'm normally poison, and when we go to escapes, i end up as a classic, but when it returns to a cade map i become an infected.

the server actually does have cookies to remember what class of zombie you are, however, it only remembers what number selection you are and not the specific class, so because there are different choices for escape and cade maps the zombie class relative to the specific number choice changes, but your choice of number does not therefor you change from predator to infected, one way zero could remedy the problem is to use the shorter escape list as default and the extra options on cade maps on the next down the list so that if you chose a class that works in both game types you will remain that class in both game types, however the same problem will remain if you chose a cade only class, in which case you will default over to regular zombie in escape

This could be avoided if I created 1 more zombie for escape maps. Do we want to just copy the config of the classic and offer 2 different model options? Or what, b/c there is some ways we can work around this issue.

Issue of lazyness...

Anyway, that idea sounds good to me.

Headcrab and headcrabless classics?... http://www.gamebanana.com/skins/34918

we should have a headcrab class. can climb walls (very slwoly), very good longjump, and it's attacks do not cause instant death, instead they deal damage and require several hits to kill. it also has less hp, but obviously the headcrab model so it's harder to hit

[Evil]

Yeah. We should have a Headcrab or Headcrab Classic for escape maps. Would be different from the other zombies.

If you gave the classics different skins you could just tweak the abilities. Slightly faster but less hp, or slightly faster with larger hit boxes..... Just something along those lines. The skin change could be as simple as a change in skin tone.
