the sand _pg vent in maincells top story in cells takes 8 knife right clicks which the sand counterparts for 1.6 and cs source only take 2 which makes this vent impossible to open also i dont believe it has a teleporter either to get into the cell its either that or i havent got the 1/30 chance of being spawned into it

I do but its not my map.

Suggestion:
contact the original map maker and ask if they can change it else if they are too busy ask for permission to edit it and then either ask someone to do it for you or do it yourself.
 
He's just referring to a vent. He believe the vent should take less hits in order to break and allow the player to travel into the vent.
Also, said vent USUALLY should teleport a player into the armoury. At the end of the vent, there is nothing, so it should teleport the player, when the player hits the teleporter at the end of vent. However, he's saying he believe there is no teleporter.

Over all, he wants a teleporter to be added into a vent system and a vent to have less health.
Mercy crc1225 crc1225 SmeaR I know y'all do a good bit of stuff with csgo and would be good for things like this.

Do you have to edit the map for this to be fixed?
 
When I get home from work I'll take a look. Does PG have a site where all their jail maps can be downloaded?


Edit: Well it's not bugged; it's by design. The breakable has 400 hp of type cinderblock, meaning a right click will do 55 damage a hit. and there is no teleport destination or teleport trigger in the vicinity.

8 knife clicks is impossible to open up the vent 4 right clicks on most maps are hard enough please redo and by teleport i mean being spawned in cell
 
RedDragonKnight RedDragonKnight Are we able to do this or no? I know you are a busy guy

I'm not rdk but I know a little about mapping so I'll chime in. Yes it is possible to do this and it is rather easy to fix but I don't know if it is that important enough to warrant adding to the fastdl and then making everyone on the server re-download a map to just have one vent and teleport be changed. If it is then I can probably do it and send to it tech later today or tomorrow.

According to the list of metamod plugins in the server (use "meta list" in console to check the list), the server has Stripper (1.2.2) by BAILOPAN. This is a map stripper that allows you to edit, remove, or add stuff on maps provided you can get the Hammer ID of the entity and key for the value you want to change. If you are only adding a teleporter and changing a vent's hp, it is simple enough to do and if you use a map stripper, it doesn't require anyone to redownload the map (since it is changed by the server when the map loads). Just don't add a bunch of changes since if you have a ton it will lag at the start of a map with a stripper, but anything under around 100 changes should be just fine (from my experience). Here is the documentation for how to write a stripper config for a map as well as where to put it: http://www.bailopan.net/stripper/ If you can't figure it out, I could probably write a config to for it to do what you want, though it would be best for someone from the tech team to learn how to use the plugin since it is already on the server.
 
Stripper should be good for a small change like this, yeah. No need to decomp and recomp the map for it and risk other broken thingz.
 
Were you ever able to see if this was a possibility? Know you've been busy and maybe a mapper could look into this Drewerth Drewerth
 
I could do this as it's and easy map fix but the Stripper plugin that Scrya mentioned above would be a much better solution. Like Drewerth said, this would be a lot of work just to update the health for one vent.
 
Ever since this was created, there hasn't been much commotion about it. It would be a nice way-of-life change, but it is a fair amount of work for just this small of a change.

We will leave it for now since Tech is busy with larger projects.
