how did you get it?
Feb 21, 2004 Spider link
I don't know -how- I got it, so that I can't answer. And I got it when I was jumping in a wormhole, with Cyan text (team speak).

I wouldn't be team... The server gives these messages to players (me) when it finds a bug.

e.g. *WARNING* Team Lin does not... (can't remember the rest) Please Report this bug.


Anyway, maybe it's a test the devs put in a forgot to take it out. :)

Is it possible someone was just playing with the teamspeak thingy?

ROFL

you guys are evil. eeeeevil I tell you.

Spider, it's part of the coding for the new mission system.
Feb 21, 2004 zamzx zik link
you evil devs :)

oh yes! heres the magic /(and you heard it first here)/

/msg "[NPC] someplayer" mission
and he will ask you if you want a mission
/msg "[NPC] someplayer" yes ( or no)
to accept.

You get a medal when you complete the mission.

after you complete the mission just message the same bot with the word "yes" again and you'll get another mission

heh problems with the mission stuff (a1k0n told us it's not supposed to be availible yet but he told us how to play with it anyway).. thanks a1k0n :)

You can ask for a second mission while you allready have one and it will duplicate the first mission. ASking for third will cause a message of something like well too bad you cant have more than 1 mission.
If you have 2 missions when you complete it, it awards you the medal twice. It also advances you by 2 medals if such is possible. (ex if you get the kill 1 easy bot mission stacked, then complete it it jumps you to the kill 3 easy bots mission cause you have 2 red medals)
If the mission is "kill 2 <blah> bots, and you kill one then ask for another mission, you get the kill 2 bot mission again, once again stacked on the first one. (it keeps track of your kills for each mission seperately tho)
umm the missions seem to crash the server as well :( tho that might just be coincidence, however once a1kon told us about them and everyone started messing with em, the server crashed twice in short order.

3ed time now.
Feb 21, 2004 Spellcast link
apparently according to a1k0n the missions didnt cause the server crashes


also if you say no to a mission it just asks you if you want a mission again :)

Damn, now I need to go msg Every...single...NPC until one responds. :(

What exactly are the missions? Assassination? Flag capture? Cargo retrieval? And when you say medal, where does it go? How do you know you have one? Can you actually see it? I need answers!
