Anti-ward

[Suprise Butsexz]

Anti wards after purchasing them and then running into wards you then get the expired message as expected. Come next round though it stays in your inventory but is inactive so it doesn't work on wards from then on. You cant but another one until you over write it (because you already own one) with a different item(have to have your inventory capped at 3 to even do this)

So in summary anti ward either needs to reactivate come next round or be removed from your inventory so you can purchase another one again. However its supposed to work. (Think it used to be removed back in the day)

im pretty sure thats a bug . i noticed it too.
im sure the anti_Ward is supposed to start protecting u for like 10 secs as soon as u hit a ward, and it expires afterward.
problem is u;re right, it stays in inventory (doesnt get popped from the held_items stack) which prevents purchasing it again indeed, but the current one doesn't do shit.

current bypass when u have anti_ward, its to buy 3 other random items, overwrite anti_ward, THEN buy anti_ward again.. which is expensive as fuck...

zero can u look into that please? its somewhat of a big issue. when anti_ward expire, u should be able to buy a new one instantly no? or at least one next round... not the entire game... (i prefer instantly considering we;re kinda paying for the price, and might as well play smart to avoid ward spams .

Does it clear out if you die. Currently the way it is programed you should not be able to buy it again unless you die. If that part is not working than there is a larger issue. If that part is then I can fix it so you can buy again after use.

from what i tested in my normal games, Im usually able to buy a ward after i die. THAT works

but as for the general concept of it, i believe the ward should disappear the moment it expires fully.
it tests the player's attention to the chat log , while being shot at, in the middle of the wards, so that they know the best time to type an antiward again before they die... and then buy other anti_wards for after that shit happened , as opposed to surviving the wards and then having to either die or overwrite the item to buy another one... or else they are left vulnerable with a useless 3rd slot taken.

+1 on having anti_ward instantly purchase-able the second it expires.

I have updated it to patch this issue. The changes will take effect next map or server restart.
