News and Announcements / [01/05/2013] Orange Cosmos RP Update #6
« on: May 01, 2013, 12:34:35 AM »
Me, Crap-Head and RTLK managed to get a pretty nice update out tonight. Fixes most of the silly bugs such as the crafting and furnace hint spam, the mayor not being able to promote chiefs, and the shroom cap being 21 instead of 20. There are a lot more fixes and even a few additions, change-log is below.
Spoiler for Change-log:
  • Fixed a bunch of poorly worded hints
  • Gas now charges the amount it tells you it will charge instead of $150 every time
  • Government officials no longer pay for gas. It tells you the city has covered the cost, but there is no charge to anyone
  • Changed the millionaire award to check your bank and wallet for the money instead of just your bank
  • Removed the *WARNING* and "You have picked up a successful shroom" hints from shrooms
  • The shroom cap is now actually 20 instead of 21
  • Handcuffed players can now enter government vehicles. Once you get in, it displays a hint saying you will be punished if you jump out as it's fail rp
  • Handcuffed players can no longer drive vehicles
  • The loading after your join now only starts if the server has 25+ players
  • Fixed the crafting furnace hint spam
  • Renamed the 'Secret Phrase' award to 'Secret Word' as it's only one word
  • Lowered the price of the phone to 2500 until we make some edits to it to prevent things such as spamming. Once that is done, the price will go down a little more
  • Secret Service can now use the police resupply locker
  • Level three officers now get 16 shotgun ammo when they become on officer. Level fours get 32
  • Fixed players keeping the police shotgun after quitting their job
  • Changed the command when you use team chat to say OOC instead of just Say like normal chat
  • Hopefully fixed the phone bug
  • Fixed mayors not being able to promote chiefs
  • Added an OCRP2_AdminWarning console command for admins. Usage: OCRP2_AdminWarning "message to display to all players in the form of a hint"
  • Changed names on the HUD ending in ".." if it exceeded 15 characters. It now just sets it to the first letter of your name and your full last name. Example: "J. Longassname"
When OCRP2_Version changes to 6, it means the update is live. It won't happen until a restart or crash, but if you're curious, just type OCRP2_Version in console.

Suggestions / Hint delays
« on: April 24, 2013, 11:44:15 PM »
Please add them on certain hints. Specifically the shrooms. Both the warning about "only planted on grass blahblah" and "Picked a successful shroom". It's annoying as hell considering most people plant several one after another.

I also believe that the "You must be near a furnace to craft this" hint spams the player, although I'm not sure. Had one report of it.

Fixed Bugs / Lua error on join
« on: April 24, 2013, 08:49:37 PM »
After the last update I got this when I joined
Code: [Select]
[ERROR] lua/includes/modules/draw.lua:270: bad argument #1 to 'GetTextSize' (string expected, got nil)
  1. GetTextSize - [C]:-1
   2. Text - lua/includes/modules/draw.lua:270
    3. unknown - gamemodes/ocrp2/gamemode/client/mayor.lua:136
I think it was due to joining while a vote was going on.

Suggestions / Add something to make this more visible
« on: April 24, 2013, 07:59:42 PM »

It's really hard to tell that you can type in that. People keep dropping 29 ammo instead of 30 because the slider rounds numbers off and they don't realize that they can just type 30 in the box. I suggest making the box white or something, anything that would make it more obvious.

This is of course when dropping ammo from your inventory.

Fixed Bugs / Mayor Player Management bug
« on: April 24, 2013, 06:34:19 PM »
What happened when the bug occurred?
I could not demote any bus drivers as in the mayor player management menu. The job even showed as 'Citizen' in the menu.

What was supposed to happen?
I should have been able to demote them.

Picture/Console Errors:

He was a bus driver at the time, no picture of the scoreboard tho.

Accepted Suggestions / Mayor Donation Box
« on: April 24, 2013, 06:24:53 PM »
Just like back in Evocity_V2d. It's really hard to keep the economy going at this point, maybe in the future when people actually set up stores and pay taxes some more it won't be needed but for now it'd be great.

Accepted Suggestions / Server name in tab and NPC shit
« on: April 24, 2013, 05:08:32 PM »
Doesn't even have to be on the scoreboard, could be up tin the top right or left or wherever to be honest. I just wanna see which server I'm in when I press tab. It'll be really good for when you're trying to get your friends in your server, a lot easier than checking the player list.

As for the NPC suggestion, could you add the BP NPC to the subs gas station? That way there's one at each.

Fixed Bugs / Mic shit
« on: April 23, 2013, 03:58:31 PM »
Dead/unconscious people can talk over their mics

Suggestions / Buddies
« on: April 22, 2013, 06:59:51 PM »
I'll start off by saying this is definitely an update for the future. I don't expect this in any of the hotfixes or near future updates.

Anyway, the idea is pretty simple to understand. Save buddies after restarts/disconnects in the database. It's always annoying to have to re-add someone to your buddies every time one of you have to rejoin or the server restarts/crashes. We've been dealing with it forever and I'm sure everyone would appreciate this.

P.S crap-head remember I said it's simple to understand, not do - I don't know anything about mysql so I'm not sure if this would be easy or not O0

Suggestions / Gas refill suggestion
« on: April 22, 2013, 06:18:37 PM »
Everyone knows how annoying it is that you can't refill the gas tank of a car that doesn't belong to you. People have suggested in the past making gas cans used for this again, but as most of you know, they've been denied. What I'd like to suggest is a new sort of system dealing with refilling gas tanks at the pumps. Instead of just hitting e and it automatically checking for your car, I think it should bring up a list of names of the owners of nearby cars that are close enough to be refilled. You click on the name of the car owner of the car you want to refill, and go on from there.

There are a few things I want to add to this. One would be that if your own car is nearby, it shouldn't bring up the list. I think it should just do what it normally does. The only time it should give the list is if none of the nearby cars belong to you. Two, I think it may be a good idea to only work with buddies and organization members. This one I'm not sure about, so I'd like to see what others think about this second one first.

Spoiler for image:
My name only has one more letter and it's not showing it on my HUD because it's replaced with "..".
There is plenty of space left for that letter, and the periods take up the same space of not more than the letter "s". For now, I'd suggest just increasing the chars before it sets them but in the future I think you should just make the names scale depending on the length. Either get a longer bar for longer names or make the text smaller O0

Fixed Bugs / Bugs

  • You can't scroll in the "All Players" thing on phones
  • You have to re-drop pots sometimes to plant seeds, it'll just not work when you try
  • Mayor can't enable the radio
  • Police car spawn angle needs to be changed
  • Phone blocks the place where it shows who's talking, can be really confusing
  • Phone prevents you from moving after a call ends for a few seconds
  • Guns do like 4 damage, used around 40 shots on about 3 people and none of them died. Also had ninja'd shooting them with an mp5 at the same time, none died
  • Scoreboard says Sercret Service when someone has the job instead of Secret Service
  • Gas menu gets stuck on your screen every once in a while and you're forced to reconnect
  • When you die or go unconscious, you respawn with body armour
  • When you're holding a gun in noclip it stays visible
  • Fists kill
  • iPhone ringtone is ridiculously bad, although I can't tell if it's bugged or not. When you hear it coming from a player, it's fine, but when someone calls you, it sounds like it's playing two different tones
  • Guns knock people back, this shouldn't really happen. At least make the knock back smaller if you can't remove it

Server Update

Changes:
  • Added ranks in the scoreboard
  • SA colour is now actually orange
  • Small tweaks to the Pistol and the M16
  • Gold Members+ no longer have a voice chat battery
  • VIP voice chat battery now decays at the same speed as detective (a lot slower)
  • Added a powerful AK47 to the traitor buy menu
  • Enabled post round deathmatch
  • HL2RP SAs and admins now get basic admin in the server
  • Server logs added for admins
  • Lowered the round limit to 8 minutes


Since fast dl is broken right now, you'll probably be told you're downloading an icon for the AK47 when you join, but you'll still see pink and black in the buy menu and corpse search. You'll have to add these files manually to your garrysmod\downloads\materials\vgui\ttt folder. If you choose not to, the only issue you'll see is the pink and black checkers where the icon would be. Sorry this update is kind of disappointing, I planned to add more custom weapons and such but I decided to wait until fast dl is working again. It shouldn't really be a problem, everyone was enjoying the server as it was without any custom weapons at all.

AK47 Icon: http://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/ILk1eJ2kN2t%2FmqefaudUAQ


Edit: Scratch the whole "It won't download when it says it is" It will download, but it might be slow. I'll leave the manual download there in case anyone wants to grab that. Ty crap-head

Media / Media Section Rules
« on: March 12, 2013, 11:20:59 PM »
1. All of the general forum rules apply here

2. Do not insult other people's opinions on certain artists, actors, tv shows or movies, or at least be constructive in doing so
  • Saying things such as "You have a shit taste in music" is a good example of breaking this rule

3. If you're going to post any negative criticism, make it worth a read
  • Do not post something as simple as "This guy sucks"
  • Adding detail to your opinion is the only way to criticize freely. An example: "I didn't like this movie due to the lack of detail in many key scenes..."

4. When starting a thread, add information to the original post
  • Don't just leave us with a link to a video or say something like "Django was a good movie"

Media / Old school hip-hop/rap
« on: February 28, 2013, 09:58:33 PM »
Anyone else love 90s/old school rap? Haven't been able to stop listening to it for the past three years.

Some amazing artists:
Ice Cube
Big L
2 Pac
The Notorious B.I.G
Nas
Snoop Dogg and Warren G(aight but not so much my style, still able to listen to him)
N.W.A nigga
Eazy E
Wu-Tang Clan
Bone Thugs (alright, not what I would consider amazing but whatever)
Jay-Z (his new shit is pretty annoying but old stuff is sexy as fuck)
Dr. Dre (was aight)

There's plenty more that I listen to but these are the ones that popped into my head within the first 10 seconds of thinking about it, I'll add more in the future most likely. So yeah, anyone like any of these artists? If so, what's your favourite song by them? Got any other old school artists you like? Tell us about them.
