PK Zone Adjustments

cbk1994 · #1 12-29-2009, 06:30 PM

On the overworld, there are now some additional restrictions on how no-PK zones work to discourage running.

When you enter the 'unstick me' area, if you have shot anybody in the past 10 seconds, a timer will appear at the bottom of your screen. This timer will count down from 5. During this time, it's still a PK zone for you (you can shoot anyone else in a PK zone, anyone in a PK zone can shoot you). If you move, the timer doesn't count down. If you haven't shot anybody in the past 10 seconds when you enter unstick, it will act as normal (instant no-PK zone).

For "convenience", we've also added a "!" symbol at the bottom-left of the screen. This symbol will appear if you've shot anybody in the past 10 seconds. This lets you know whether you can enter a no-PK zone on the overworld or not.

If you notice any bugs or have any suggestions, please post them

Wait so you can shoot other people when you are in PK mode even if it's a no-PK zone?

Only if the person you're shooting is also in PK mode (or in a PK zone).

If I'm not in pk-mode and someone in pk-mode walks into a no-pk zone would we be able to hit eachother?

Nope, both players would have to be in PK mode (or in a PK zone).

Does this only work on the unstick me part of the world?

o.o What about events? Break any of 'em?

I noticed that it works in the hospital.. When you respawn in the hospital after getting shot, you still have it. It works anywhere from what I understand.

Working on making it work everywhere except events and the hospital.

Basically, if you don't want to fight, then don't engage the enemy. Once you engage, you cannot run from a pk zone to a no-pk zone without having to stand still for 5 seconds.

If you are picking flowers, digging, etc and run inside, it will automatically be no pk as long as you didn't attack anyone.

Happy pking
