In the spirit of discussing possible plugins and receiving input, I found a few neato mods that might work well on FTC. Its just a mild brainstorm.
Bounty: -[link]-
There used to be a bounty mod on FTC a while ago. You could type '!bounty Over some time I have felt that the money given for a kill just wasn’t quite "fair" if you will. By default you will always get $300 no matter what weapon you use, you don't get a benefit if you use this weapon over that. Well, I wrote this plugin to fix that. You are now able to set the amount of cash on a kill dependant on the weapon used. You can set each weapon to any value from 0-16000.This might be a groovy way of earning money depending on the weapon that's used. Pistols and SMG kills could be worth slightly more than Rifle kills, etc... Odds are, if someone is rolling with a pistol and SMG, they probably don't have a lot of cash to begin with, and 'not trying' or waiting to lose 3 rounds in a row just to get $8gs sounds pretty Third World. [The coder even suggested using the 'point modifier' from HLstatsX to multiply by $300. (ie, scout point modifier = 1.10 x $300, HE nade = 2 x $300, etc..) Perhaps with a couple of extra dollars, there will be fewer requests from players towards admins for $$$ and less "I'm soo poor" remarks. (Its not like raping the Federal Reserve for funds; its more like increasing the minimum wage to offset inflation and make purchasing power more reflective of the skill/labor it takes to get a kill with a low power weapon.)  The coding should be fairly straight forward and the plugin seems to be pretty 'low risk' with potentially high returns.
Sell: -[link]-
The Sell! plugin allows players to sell back their equipment while within their buy zone. The command !sell can be used to sell back your equipment and buy new(or not). All the weapon prices can be configured through the config file.The ability to sell back an item seems like something that should have come stock with CS:S. A player might hit the wrong bind and buy the wrong gun or might want to switch weapons the next round and might be a few hundred $ away from the gun they want. The buy back amount can also be customized. You can get 100% of the weapon's original value or account for depreciation and only receive 80%, 50%, etc. You can bind a key for '!sell pri' to only sell the primary gun or type '!sell all' to get rid of everything (including nades). There's even a '!sell menu' that can pop up (for the noobs). I just thought I'd throw out some suggestions as ways of stimulating the economy. All 3 plugins deal with earning $$$. Good players will, more often than not, have enough $$$ for AK/M4s anyways. Players who aren't as good and run around with low money and with shitty guns sometimes wait for some assistance in the form of $8gs before buying helpful equipment and guns. Perhaps allowing players to EARN a bit more cash will help to equalize the playing field a bit more! Edited Mon Nov 19 2007, 01:29PM |

Lolcats, I like these ideas, especially the last two. Never heard of the "Sell" one, but it would make picking up that AUG etc. at the end of the round worthwhile

Wow Goose, GREAT find! I really like the idea.I have no problem having to try to pwn face with a glock but when I kill some1 and don't get to the primary weapon in time and the round ends or whatever the reason I didn't get one.Its annoying having only 300+ more dollars to put toward maybe a MP5. I like all three of the suggested plug-ins. Lets see what the Ops think. |

Another mod you might think about that we just recently put onto surf was the knife syphon. its pretty cool and all the knifers out there will appriciate it. Bassically, if you aren't familiar with the mod, whenever you kill someone with a knife the mod gives you X amount of bonus hp ( set by the OPs) Knife Syphon: -[link]- |

I'm a lil iffy about the knife syphon the sell mod would be helpful ( most common scenario would be after just being switched to t one press "B" "3" "3" for a rifle on ct thats really a scout for T and vice-versa) the bounty was fun and ppl used it more often than i thought before. personally i wouldn't use it much though. The rewards weapon is my fav, becuz it makes a lot of sense that people who don't have money use a pistol or an smg. only thing is, i feel the reward for pistols should be higher than smg's. |

Goose likes to molest noobs. If you're a noob, watch out for my tralala. Drunk is a fag. He sucks cock. What a homo. OWNED! <3333 Goosey! And i like your ideas, although less money makes ppl buy smg's or other guns makin them more skilled player on CS:S (that is if they learn how to use the gun). I mean we have the mug mod already. Everyone shud stop complaining bout money.. seriously work a bit harder bitches. drunkirishmafia wrote ... GIME GIME GIME!!! Shut up Mad, its a great idea.. u jus dunt lik it cuz u get knifed a billion times everytime u come on. Another mod you might think about that we just recently put onto surf was the knife syphon. its pretty cool and all the knifers out there will appriciate it.

hmmm, i like the idea of the bounties being revived, but my only complaint about them was that they changed the player's color. Yeah its so you can tell who has a bounty etc etc. but it'd give T's hiding in the plants an unfair camo, and make it harder for ct's to hide amongst....the map. The worse thing was that there was no set amount to change the color. You could (!bounty Cha 1) and i would turn bright green/yellow. perhaps set a limit as to when the colors would change? Sell would be interesting. I'll keep my pros and cons until i see it in action...just seems weird to me As for weapon kill rewards, well honestly i don't think it'd make that much of a difference. You'll still have people complaining about cash, and it makes no diff for newer player. It'd be nice to have as you said before when you're too damn poor to buy something other than a good pistol. 2nd round when the server starts would be waaaaay unbalanced though :/ |

If this were a vote and if I had one I'd vote: Yes for Bounty Yes for Weapon Rewards No for !Sell |
