    I liked it when there were no bombs at all. Now many people just throw away the archer's bomb and turn knight and take the bomb. So there are no fights just bomb spam like before.

    But the bomb increases the tempo of the match! I hate it when I've got no bomb to throw and get awesome kills.

    With bombs you can actually see who is good and who is not. People that spam and get hit by "early spammed" bombs are often not thinking it trough. Playing with bombs is much less lag related than just plain slashing, so the better players actually have the fair chance to prove they're better.
    Most bad players just slash like crazy, and once you're 1v4 there's (usually) no way to win.

    Besides, alot of people don't shield against bombs, or are just plain useless with it, this'll teach them to use it.

    (No offense to you Bene, you are a good Knight, there's no doubt about that).

    Thiel you're right. But the problem I see is that some people don't know they can switch to archer throw away the bomb switch back to knight and take the bomb. Of course those people are the unexperienced players. They die in the bomb spam and the few people left behind are outnumbered so the other team (they don't have to be better - they only know the trick to start with bombs) has an advantage. The unexperienced players will think "this is unfair they have bombs and we don't" and as they allways die they will not come back and learn anything. And I think RTDM was a great way for me to improve in battle. Now you will learn how to switch classes fast, a skill you hardly need at any time in the "normal" game.
    I also think it was ok to get a bomb when you killed an archer. But I don't like the way it is used now. Give everybody bombs or nobody.

    I still think we should be able to place workshops in map editor. That way you could edit some of the maps to have a bomb workshop in the middle of the map. You could start people with 20 coins and then it's a rush for some extra ballistics. However, it's not possible while the map editor is still so basic :(.

    I agree entirely with your post Bene, but you seem to be a bit "outdated"! :p. Or I responded to a old post of yours, in which case it's my fault. ;) But last time I checked Shadlington already changed it back to knights always having 1 bomb, and archers none.

    Hrm.
    I keep getting this error since I updated to 228:
    ./KAG: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    Anyone have any idea what the cause might be? I'd investigate but I'm going to bed now.

    EDIT: Fixed!

    Oh so it wasn't just my server? RDM crashes my client only once every couple of hours, but for alot of other people they crash like every 3 rounds or so.

    This happens to me sometimes on TDM servers. It happens rarely on my desktop but quite often on my old laptop. Always happens right after a map is over and before the new map starts.

    Not neccesarily, just that it makes it happen more. My desktop is barely a year old and it still happens every once in a while.
