Tiny tiny thing.

When a flag is captured in HTF, it doesn't say what team has the flag :D


..obviously not something big, but hey, s'what we're for.

Mmmh the color of the font says which team has it.

Btw. would it be possible to insert a time counter that showed how much time is left to the next point?

And a question: is the time for a htf point added all the time (like some of team alpha has the flag for 4 seconds, then loses it to the other team, a red one gets it back and the team receives a point after 1 second) or does the counter start from the beginning again when the flag is recaptured?

while we're on the topic of a timer...would it be possible to have one that starts at the beginning of each game so you know how much time is left in a match instead of having to wait for the warnings that show up on the console? I think that'd be pretty nice...mmhmm...also pretty minor.

You sure the colour of the font depicts what team has the flag on HTF? For me i'm pretty sure it was just yellow, like pointmatch.

Strange. I did too. And you're right.

Yet moments before I could've sworn while playing on grand_diablo's 'nucleas' map, the flag capture message was just plain yellow.

..freaky. My mistake I suppose.

on the htf topic...on player scores...would it be possible to incorperate the amount of points you got for your team by holding the flag? right now it says points - deaths, but it's really just kills - deaths...merp.

Just press F1. You'll see such a counter in the top right corner :)

But it still would be usefull, if the blue flag would appear if blue has the flag, and the red when red has it. The player holding the flag should get +1 point too when his team gets the points. Hold the flag is currently the most intense game mode, it simply rawks. Although the default values do need some editing for it.. like 60-90 point limit, with an 8 sec max respawn time.

Good idea.

Psyl3ntShad0w: If it wrote the time limit would it be good enough?
I don't know ;). Try it out.
