Ok so here it is but remember its only an idea and i dont know whether it would be possible but....

Seeing as though most of the maps are outside now about adding some kind of environment settings like customizable wind, rain to make you slower or make the ball move about when passing / shooting. :confused: \o/

I don't see how this would make the game more fun.

These are things which are annoying in RL, now using a computer you can get rid of it, why be happy with it?

Imagine the ball flying towards the empty goal...then the wind blows it away...fun, eh? hurrah

i was waiting for that DavidM.

I wasnt saying that this would be to add to the fun aspect just to the indivuality of the game. The wind would already be blowing and changing direction randomly thus making it more interesting having to compensate for the wind effects. Which could lead to more fun.

The ball in deathball does not currently handle some available options correctly that could produce some interesting effects. So mappers are currently limited in this area. However, all I care to say at this point is, you will soon see a map with a different effect. It's still under construction but is almost done. It's been on the back burner for some time due to the Deathball bug with Physics volumes - pain causing. I need pain causing to work correctly for certain effects to behave as intended. I hope 2COOL4-U gets this fixed for 1.9. The effect would be even better if the ball reacted correctly to some options. You'll have to wait a little while longer to see if it's fun or not.
