Apparently there is a game crippling bug. If you log out of a hosted server and then rejoin, you cannot play.

I'll get this fixed by tomorrow. Sorry!

Thanks. I should have read the reference a little more. I'll implement this into the next release.

I also am thinking if I should make this occupation based, thus having players work together. My next game will have something like this but basically... One occupation could be a doctor with medical supplies at the start of a round. Another could be a cop who would have the general items cops have.

simplified modern metaphor zombie..... are y a zombie ? or a homeless ? add the option, after dying to become a zombie

Thanks for the suggestion!

I've played games, mostly just a Counter-Strike 1.6 mod, where they force you to play as a zombie once you're dead. It was never too much fun for me.

I can see going after a player who might have wronged you. But I'd have to come up with something that would keep it interesting. I'll see!
