Great update! but what is someone RDM's you just outside of spawn, so when you go through the portal it will re-spawn you.

NLR Zone won't work in red harbor. I'll add that to the OP.

Next update. That and (hopefully) a few other boats along with vehicle customization. I'm working on a new base for boats as currently there isn't one.

What if you, for example, accidentally propkill yourself while building your base at the oil rig and no admins are online? Are you supposed to simply wait for ten minutes in RH and let people steal your shit because a script is stopping you from returning?

Props will not trigger the NLR zone.

So will the NLR zone only work when you are killed by another player? I killed myself to test it last night and I got the marker of where I died, but when I went near it, it didn't do anything. It would be nice if the marker didn't show when it isn't active.

What if you're RDMed at your base and no admins are online? NLR zone prevents you from protecting your stuff.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of NLR zones. There are more situations where they work against legitimate players than where they work for them.

NLR counts for any kill unless an admin says otherwise. Simply because the average player had bad judgment and just calls everything RDM when it could have been a legitimate kill.

Same goes for killing yourself. Stop abusing the no-respawn time benefit as goldmembers and kill yourself to get back to red harbor faster.

Changed NLR Zone timer from 10 minutes to 7 minutes. Also changed the time stated in the rules from 5 minutes to 7 minutes. Let me describe the NLR zone a bit more:

If you are killed by another player, not a prop, and you are not in Red Harbor then a NLR zone will pop up around your death point. When you get close to your death point, it will tell you that you are nearing it and will tell you to leave. If you get closer, it will tell you that you have 5 seconds to leave or else it will respawn you. The nlr zone is removed after 7 minutes and you can return to your death area after it is removed.

If you type kill in console, the nlr zone shows up as using kill in console is IC. It is the same as suiciding ICly, thus you have to follow NLR.

What if you're RDMed at your base and no admins are online? NLR zone prevents you from protecting your stuff.

You do realize that you have to follow NLR after you're killed, right? Either with or without the NLR zone, you cannot return after 7 minutes. The NLR zone just makes it more enforced.

why is it not 5 mins like NLR rule originally was
