You actually used to be able to hit F with P4 equipped and attach it to yourself and it'd show on your body then you'd run into a group of people and hit D and it'd explode.

I think the problem came about when findAreaPlayers() was changed in an NPC-Server update to Graal systems, so triggering it while it was player-relative rather than NPC-relative (which the normal P4 is, Non-Player) proved to be next to impossible without a certain delay that just annoyed the living crap out of people because they thought they were outside the P4-bombers range when in reality they were, but not 0.5 seconds ago. Also, 98[percent] of the time, the suicide-bomber wasn't affected either and lived when they should have in fact been the first to die.

Well, I'm not quite sure how it worked, but from the way you described it it's totally possible but was scripted wrong. Was it something you actually placed on the ground and used a remote detonator, or did you actually run into a group of people like swift described?

[deathbarrier99]

You attached the bomb to your player and could detonate the bomb with the press of a key.

There was no day but that's why it was so dangerous.

[Dnegel]

I cant say it would be that cool. But if a noob looking person were hiding it, and running towards you, and waiting for you to axe him to dead. Then it would be something worth seeing.

Any chance of getting a hotkey system for weapons/items?

You could make the thing in like a day, and I'm sure we'd all appreciate it..

So, Here are the ideas I liked the most and are not so complicated to do.

• Improved tileset based on the current one. - Crono [I heard they're already working on this]
  
• Speed boats would be a fun addition or at least some new forms of transport. - Felix
  
• What I want to see is PKing being more "mandatory" in a way, as well as structured so that to escape death becomes more of a chore than to face it. - Wil Soul [Recently took care of with the five seconds timing?]
  
• More newbie support - Dusty
  
• More exits to the ****ing hospital - Pojo
  
• make cars deal damage - Nataxo
  
• If cars are still going to exist I would like to see a driving school. Where you need to complete multiple tasks before getting a car license =) - Zoo [Could be linked to the noob tutorial]
  
• Let's get helicopters back in this b!tch - Lexus
  
• hotkeys plz - Charlie

I think Dusty's idea was the best and most important one.

[deathbarrier99]

It's later in the thread, but I still want helicopters back.

[Old_Days]

The new gmap would be smaller, according to several staff.

What the hell would be the need for helicopters? Another staff toy? They already got plenty.

I find it hard to believe the minds are work on Era like Chris Vimes can't fix the issue with bullets disappearing when going over level links. It's annoying and allows people to cheat.

Hell, I solved it in the 2.17 client around 4 years ago by writing a simple custom bullet handler.

It's easy to do, have Chris do it. The pros outweigh the cons hugely.
