Warchest & Spawn Beacon Saving

**BigHub** · 03-29-14, 01:21 AM

Do you want to have warchest and spawn beacon saving?

Warchest is kind of like ATMs where you can save money between the teams. And spawn beacons, are well, spawn beacons.

Yay or nay?

Forgot to mention, warchests only work for Blufor and Opfor. Although indies can purchase warchests, they can't deploy them. However, they can hack the other teams' chests to obtain part of the stored money.

Vtd yes to both. We won't know if it fits in the game if we don't try them.

They're already available, the poll is about whether or not to have them save between restarts.

Yes I know they are available. What I meant was how will they effect the gameplay between restarts overall.

How would spawn beacons work between restarts for groups? Especially if Indie. Available to all Indies (or OPFOR/BLUFOR), or will it be persistent for group members?

Regardless, when does this poll close? It'll be a week tomorrow. If they can be fit in soon, would really like to see both so we can determine how they work, gameplay-wise.

When a spawn beacon is set to group-only, you are can only spawn on it if the person who deployed it is in your group. Therefore, group-only beacons are inactive if their owner is not in the server. Ownership and group settings are carried thru restarts.

Also, in relation to warchests, I will later implement the withdraw/deposit menu to weapon crates, so everyone will be able to have a persistent money stash without having to carry all your money or to share it with your team.

Just a reminder, objects expires after 5 days of mission uptime after being locked, so if you wish to extend the duration of your baseparts or crates, you simply have to unlock and relock them once every couple days.
