    Is it laggy?


    The tablet is designed to be the most convenient for multiplayer, because of this, the hologram/preview of the fortification you are about to build is visible to all players near you. This can cause minor server lag, but this will, like many things, become exponentially larger when multiple people are building fortifications. Simply restrict the number of people allowed to build fortifications, or create a fortification delay or maximum limit via utilising the restriction in the section below.

    The fortification models are automatically cached on the client and server, so there shouldn't be any lag spikes when switching between fortifications via your tablet.

    So, it most likely will be required to be handed out by the Gamemaster as they will have to take this into account for events due to the minor lag it adds. The more people are around the person making the cover the more lag it will create as the ghosted preview is visible to anyone around that person.

    The cool part is that we can make our on fortifications by just swapping the model in the code, such as if we find walls or barricades that are in the style of Star Wars we can use those instead of sandbags and etc.

    I'd say +1 based on what the extent of the lag is. And of course event server only.

  4. Put sign above ATC

    More textscreens on the server, more props, more lag. When it gets to a severe situation then maybe we'll waste another half FPS on a textscreen up there. Until then it's just a regular server rule.

    As it stands, during DEFCON 6 or any ordinary situation, you may not be on top of ATC. You are to be at ease, doing your regular duty and that in no way would require you to be on top of ATC (unless you make a meme excuse to try and play against the rules). When outside of such DEFCON and either during a combat situation or with a good reason, you may get up there for strategical purposes such as getting a good line of sight with a sniper because that is utilizing your envinorment - but also realize you are making the ATC a more focused target if enemies become aware that's where they are being attacked from.

    So, just like cloaking, saber ignition, firing, etc, is not allowed on DEFCON 6 neither is being on top of ATC. Once you're in a combat situation, then it's strategical advantage.
