funny story
« on: April 09, 2016, 10:18:58 am »
so i go to geko to sell some small arms.
close to skeeters door is some plastic explosive on the ground.
cool.
i pick it up.
i start talking to skeeter and figure i better check to see if the timer is running.
yup.
holy shit.
i run outside and drop it, then go back to finish business.
skeeter starts blasting me, so i do the honorable thing and run for my life.

about 15 hours later i log back on and head back to geko.
sure as shit the plastic explosive is still there.
i take care or business.
i then think, maybe i can disarm it.
needless to say i get blown to hell.
i re-spawn and get my loot back.

so to whoever set that trap...
GOOD ONE
i shall forever bow down in the shadow of your greatness.

I could bet it was Napalm or someone from UV who left it there during TC. I don't think so, that someone left it in TC town just for fun.

"I could bet it was Napalm or someone from UV who left it there during TC. I don't think so, that someone left it in TC town just for fun."

that could be, but what i don't understand is how it could still be there 15 hours later, without the timer going off before i logged back on.
was it the same C4?
right where i dropped it before?
from what i know the timers on explosives more or less have a maximum timer of 10 minutes.
but over 15 hours?

i know why skeeter started blasting me.
i picked up a ticking time bomb and dropped it.
no difference than me setting the timer and dropping it.
an act of aggression.

so either someone has figured out how to expand a timers range, or they place these traps at 10 minute intervals and replenish them every 10 minutes.
i think the former not the latter.
the cost of C4 would exceed the loot you  "may" get with this tactic.
either way i thought it was pretty fucking funny.

but if someone found a timer exploit, they need to let kilgore know.
errors in coding have a way of snowballing and effecting things they shouldn't.
but they can and or could.
or not.

C4 operates on field switch (Detonator) not timer
