KYFS Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 when i kill myself by falling in water it says someone else killed me
samdaman Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 and? its an early version fool don't expect it to be perfect it duz this often with being killed even
xerox Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 i believe that if you are not directly shot or run over by someone it takes the closest person to you as the person that killed you, though you can get a 'killed himself' msg if you die with your own grenades etc
Totenkopf Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 no here is what happens when u die it says that because I am A police officer and this is an arrest
kev/n Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 ON topic I suppose, after I fall in the water 2, 3, and 4 times etc., it starts to say I killed myself. But the first time it tells me I was killed by someone. ...broccoli?
samdaman Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 Kevin I believe the question was answered "i believe that if you are not directly shot or run over by someone it takes the closest person to you as the person that killed you, though you can get a 'killed himself' msg if you die with your own grenades etc" this topic should be closed.
Cray Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 The value of who killed you is actually a memory address in the game, and therefore the game has decided who killed you (which is obviously not that good). From what we can figure, the game decides who killed you by the last person that you have come in contact with by them shooting you or hitting you with a car. Therefore, if you die 10 mins later without ever being affected by another player, the last person that has come in contact with you will get the credit. We will have to really look into this as it is a known problem, but since score does not matter yet it was not a priority for us.
KYFS Posted August 14, 2003 Author Posted August 14, 2003 the score seems to not be affected when this happens.
kev/n Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 Why do you care about score? You have to alt+tab VC to see it anyways and I dunno if the number next to your name is kills or whatever.
raiden Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 Cray said it didn't even keep score..maybe I misunderstood what he said.
raiden Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 Who knows, but if one of them team says it doesn't keep score I'll trust him. Maybe he meant it doesn't keep score correctly so you can't really rely on it.
Sintax Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 He said score doesn't matter yet, and with no gametypes, it doesn't. In the last version, score is very lightly implemently, and it'll get worked on, as well as the death messages, later on.
petebog Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 I got the impression that the current 'score' shows how many times each player has died.
