Title: Open Weapon Slots
Post by: Go_Cat75 on Wednesday, February 01, 2012, 03:27:58 AM
Can I request that you allow a option to open all weapon slots. 

This is available on later version and sometimes its a pain when you have around 4 players and you want some fun and can't choose the same weapons like a S.

It's possible for tournament mode;
AGP_GameTournament bTournamentOpenAllWeaponClassSlots

So it must be possible for regular mode as well...

I added the correct line to the ini but this still doesn't work. 
They probably didn't add it to the code yet as it's also not in the admin panel.

It is an option in the Tournament Admin Panel in-game. I saw it. It's just that your server probably has to be in Tournament mode for it to work as it's default value is True. I'll have to pester Blueblaster to check it out in the source and see if we can force it in regular mode.

The reason they did that is to make the game more balanced. No one wants to play on a team full of sniper and they're the only person going for the objective.

I'm not disputing torny mode I know it is a options, its in the ini file also.

I've added the normal mode openweaponslots to the ini.

I have not seen a server with closed weapon slots since 2.7.  Since so many 2.8.5 players are looking to migrate I see this as one of the single biggest issues that they will not like.
