Constant cratemania

Postby Cooper42 » Tue Dec 16, 2008 6:27 pm

Fairly simple. A setting whereby 'cratemania' is forced to occur every 30 seconds or so.

Would work well with more customisable crate sets, and would be great for those times you don't actually want to play too seriously (which, for me, tends to be most of the time - isn't that the point of MW?)

Isn't setting the crate drop rate to 10 enough?

I played on a server yesterday that had crates raining down. My framerate died very quickly, what with all of the magical forests.

It isn't too hard to set it up for crates to fall all the time. I may set up a unranked fun server when I buy another copy of Multiwinia.

It's basically what Fish Bowl is already doing. There seems to be a limit on how many crates you can have in the air at once without crate mania, though, so even with manual override, I was unable to produce true crate rain.

Yeah, I noticed this when I tried in single player. Massive shame. :(

Feature request... ?
