Stratus Status #14, 2019-02-25
Hello everyone! Welcome to the fourteenth issue of Stratus Status, the official biweekly newsletter. Are you interested in recent network changes and what the community has been up to? If so, read on to get up-to-date about all things Stratus!
Stratus: Into the Gamemodes
Good things come to those who wait. Stratus' fifth tournament has been announced! Stratus: Into the Gamemodes will consist of three gamemodes: Conquest, CTW and DTC/M.
Registrations opened on the 16th, and will remain open until the 6th of March. Check out the information thread for more details. Also check out the map pool thread.
Good luck to everyone playing qualifiers!
Development News
The past two weeks have been relatively quiet in terms of development in OA, but we have two things to note. First, we now have 20 maps which are compatible with OA, with many more to come.
Secondly, combat logging protection has been implemented. In games where they are enabled, a zombie will spawn if a competing player logs out during combat and will stay in that location (with no AI) for a specified delay. This zombie will behave exactly like the player, counting for stats, being affected by environmental damage, and dropping items upon death.
