Dedicated Server with CLEAR Visibility

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2002-07-06 · 12 posts
Heya,

Could someone please help figure out how to set my server up with clear settings? In the sysop file it makes no mention of the clear option. I have been on several dedicated servers where clear is set.

Thanks,





Thanks to MG Dragon for emailing me.

What the sysop file calls "light fog" at setting #1 is actually CLEAR.

I'm set.

Cheers





and remember to set the weight for both teams EVENLY.havent seen tonnage set for teams at all yet.
The reason you dont see that cause that'd be silly and waste of peoples time...people wanna jump in and play their fav mech, not keep looking for servers where they can.

Res
eh i mean for TA league matches. had a few times other team went almost 50 tons over what supposed to.
Uh, yeah I was talking about the server cycle. Like when I'm not there to set it to clear.

As far as setting the tonnage limit during matches goes, yeah - good idea, that way each team doesn't have to keep adding each other up.





Well, we have to keep adding anyway, 'cause you can't always set the tonnage limit exactly at the match-limit. Any *60 tonnages have to have the server set at *75, etc etc. But it surely helps.
Yes many tonnages are not stipulated that we play, I've tried a few times, but during admin I can just see the team total if I click on the specific team so no biggie.
Speaking of which, can we use a 95 ton Daishi if zone stats prove the weight? Or does it go by chassis?
It's always by chassis. After all you'd have to wait till the drop was over, and have zone stats accessible to prove how much tonnage was on it
Actually whomever is admining the dedicated can monitor each team weight to a tenth of a ton at time of drop.
id say just round to nearest thing server can set.
