033 Santa [320] v1.0.3

[Masskid]

i know your eager to release this race, but i noticed that nice list has a small bug. i was santa and i was added to the nicelist( no problem ) but i got off of it went to vaga and was still on my own nicelist(i must really like myself O.O) and i would continue to stay on the nicelist until the respawn didnt fail,( new round i killed myself at the very beginning and got respawned after that i was off the nicelist )

[CYBER]

is that really a bug? i thought that , if a santa put someone on the nice list, that the target person would still respawned even if the santa got off the race...?
wasnt it like that before or am i tripping here? its not like the shadow hunter wards that disappear as soon as the shadow hunter switched race

No In understand what is going on and it is a glitch created from the change I made last night. What he got was a message stating "CPrintToChat(activator, "{green}Respawn FAILED {red}Nice List REACTIVATED");"

What I assume you did was have nice list and then kill yourself and then you changed race but becuase you did not respawn from nice list you got nice list back.

Actually this made me realize that all timers need to be killed on round end. This will resolve this glitch and many others that can cause crashes ect. They key is that it should be considered bad practice for a timer to contiue after a round ends. This will only apply to timers greater than 2-3 seconds in length.

oh i see, so if someone died and respawned from another effect first (say a BM), they would be removed from the current nice list? or does it keep the respawn till they die again?

and when would this race be available, im dying to level something new before my final saturday since vagalion is being whored

btw zero did u get my msg about grenade effects for all races before the santa development occured?

Yes, originally I did not have plans for effects for this one b/c they do not actually do extra dmg or anything but I felt there was not enough effects to do this race justice and so I did it. The hard part was making it only apply to this race and not all nades.

Tested, glitch patched thanks to 10 more lines of code!

so zero? by killing the timer, would that also fix Bloodmage's ultimate? currently if u are set on fire, and the round ends, the next map you get burned for 1 damage because the ultimate timer is still running.
Would that also fix the panorama's ultimate which summons you and your enemy AFTER the beginning of next round if u were to die just before round end?
( no one has complaints on those, im just curious)

Most likely yes. THese are not being done to correct bugs as much as like I stated it is just bad practice and therefore poor programing.
