Rocketeer ehh... what? Posts: 397 dude...	Option 1: just clear the save, and let the player choose what he wants for regen and/or tp, but make it so it shows in webstats what was enabled and what not (thus show wether he used ammoregen, show wether he used hp regen, and show wether or not he used tps) ---------------------------

Soldier Posts: 163 Very carefully	well we were talking about this last night on the server somewhat, I think you shouldn't disable regen but keep a record of whether it was hardcore or not so you could just show that in the times list. Having no regen would make things like doing demo maps as soldier impossible to do times for, and other things like timing rocketeer would just be lame w/o regen.

Having no regen would make things like doing demo maps as soldier impossible to do times for, and other things like timing rocketeer would just be lame w/o regen. If it ends up being option 2 or 3 then that means a soldier cant do speedruns on the demo maps that a soldier needs regen for. just remember that people. and if you agree option 4 is where its at. (just making that clear, not trying to persuade anybody)

Soldier m3thskiLL Posts: 185	you missed an option - allow regen, disable saves/teles. thats the one I would prefer regen on cause it makes speedruns better since youre not walking/waiting on reload half the time it means that you dont have to worry about rocketjumper/gunboats/equalizer giving unfair advantage also you can do more demo maps as soldier

And regen should be diasbled as it means some jumps can be bypassed meaning the end result of the speed-run can not be compared with 'legitimate' speed runs (which is any other servers which don't use JA and private servers).
