Update 23/2/10 - Map Updating

[Spammish]

So the update today brings mostly changes and updates to maps, particularly 2fort and Doublecross.

Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Engine
Fixed servers being inappropriately delisted from the master server

Team Fortress 2
Updated CTF_Doublecross
Improved clipping to prevent players from getting to unintended places
Updated CTF_2Fort
Fixed Blue players being able to block the Blue spawn room doors to lock in teammates
Moved the Blue team Sniper wall down to match the Red team Sniper wall
Updated Russian localization strings
Fixed the Pyro not being able to deflect enemy flares
Fixed pipebombs not being removed if they explode in a func_nogrenades zone

So not including the changes mentioned, has anyone noticed anything else that's changed?

Better late then never I guess.

Maybe I'm ignorant, but the blue team's sniper wall was higher than the red? I had no idea. :O

Looks like the PRO snipers on 24/7 2fort finally got their greatest wish.

apparently this update killed the nade hit detection on players, although i haven't tested this myself

Moved the Blue team Sniper wall down to match the Red team Sniper wall

Aw, i'll miss watching the bridge from safety, ready to ambush, through that gap.

I doubt it'll happen but i'm still waiting for them to clip most of 2fort. I love the map, as many people know, but a large majority of my deaths are from catching trims and trusses. Notably the main bloody entrance.

Besides the fact that the latest Steam update made half the users lose their friend lists, nothing at all. :O

Finally some activity from Valve. These thing should have been fixed a looong time ago.

It means higher at the bottom of the wall. There was a gap you can see through on one side but not the other.

Yeah. Especially the frickin' wagon wheel. (And other things you can see in ctf_2fort_fixup's changelog. I may revisit some of them now that point_push seems to be working as an anti-camp-on-thingy measure.)

Doublecross's clippings were fixed. Yay, I'm useful.

 

[Trotim]

Yay, the nade hit detection really is completely screwed up now. =|

WHY NOT THE HUNTSMAN

Sounds like the flipside of the bug that they had introducing the Ambassador.

Someone accidentally changed the hit-rules so that it used the set of bullet-boxes instead of the projectile-box.

 

[Engineer]

A sad day for Demoman, hopefully they will bring a fix tomorrow.
Or they will wait for two year just like in the 2fort case.

 

[Dr. KillPatient]

I do believe it's been fixed as of today...

 

[The Political Gamer]

Its already been fixed!
