Fixed oodles of zergling bugs.
Fixed Rottweil ult bonus damage applying to pistol/knife.
Added some bonus damage to Ahmed (has an OKAY KD but I think it is largely because of suicide bomb, I don't think this will make the race OP by any means but I am ready to remove it if it is too strong somehow).
Made Anti Mage blink remove all movement impairing effects.
If zergling attempts to unborrow with an enemy nearly on or on its head, it will deal 50 damage to them.
Spectators/dead players see a white entity on the ground where the zergling is.
Fixed black mage saying it respawned console.
Fixed the always failing to download lightningbolt and rocket1.
Slightly reduced the chance and effect of Iron Man knockup on Musician.
Changed hat of radiance on exalted sorc to be "cannot be seen on the radar"
Expertise stuff

Anti Mage blink cd from 6.0 to 4.0 at max
Gravitas slipspace cd from 10.0 to 7.0
Duelist leap CD from 0.9 to 0.75
Keldon Warlord chance to slow with first strike increased and damage dealt with second strike increased
Exalted Sorcerer hat of draining radius buffed and time between ticks reduced to help make it more competitive with hat of storms (hat of radiance still garbage until we fix screen flash tho, rip)

OP should buy admin and watch admin only chat.

Orly? Last time we/I asked staff if names like nice rigger were allowed they/you said ofc he's propably just a truck driver driving a nice rig. LOL.. It's not admins not willing to enforce rules it's cause of staff themselves letting stuff like this slide and not having a unified stance on stuff like this.

WE DID IT REDDIT, only took spamming war3imba and war3bug

You did nearly 400 damage before dying and you got kills? This is an outrage! I will make sure to buff Lilith to compensate.

New chat commands coming:
 
Automatic wish buying: type "wishon" to toggle on.
Typing wishon attempts to buy a wish and also toggles on autobuying of wishes.
Every time you spawn, 5 seconds later it will attempt to buy a wish. Type "wishoff" to toggle off.
It will only attempt to autobuy a wish if it is at least round 3.
The proper use of this command would be as such: Round 3 you have $5,000. You buy guns and type "wishon". It buys a wish.
Every subsequent spawn if you do not own a "wish" it will attempt to buy one 5 seconds after spawn.
 
Automatic pistol extender buying: type "extenderon" and "extenderoff". Functions identical to wishbuying except it attempts to buy one every round, not just after round 2.
 
I don't currently intend to do it with any other items as there are very few items that are that cheap and even less items that are purchased *almost* every single round.
 
THE DOWNSIDE: If you get disarmed and lose your guns, then spawn with 3k and buy a wish I will laugh at any complaints.
If you want to prevent this, try binding a key to do both.
 
THE HOTKEY: [assuming COMMA is the key you want to use]
alias "wish1" "say wishon;bind , wish2"
alias "wish2" "say wishoff;bind , wish1"
bind , wish1
 
Then you can tap this key to buy a wish and toggle wish autobuy on, then tap it again to toggle wish autobuy off.
The same can be done for pistol clip extender.
 
edit: these commands are now live

Added "spendskillsmax"
Works the same as spendskills except it dumps as many points into the skill as it can
 
Currently it spams your console a lot but that is because I forgot to remove debug messages.
If you notice any bugs please make me aware pronto.
 
Also released white & black mages at level req 4000

You know takeno is fucked up when Pug says it's OP

Fixed a lot of problems with succubus hunter. You can now gain skulls and your bonus damage actually applies.
You gain 1% bonus dmg per skull, up to 20%.
1 health per skull up to 60
50$ per skull per round up to 1000
5 xp per skull per round up to 300

Lesser played maps now feature bonus experience!

Didn't we used to have more EXP items on the old servers? things like, survive longer get more exp at round start, or get more exp per kill, or stuff like that. that would be nice.
 
also pls have new game + gain a small amount of exp for using the ulti. after 10 uses it literally can't do anything with its money except fill T spawn with glocks.

Inspired by the comradery of JB where teams actually coordinate and work together to achieve victory in an otherwise casual modded game, I feel like War3 should have that as well. As it is War3 is basically a casual dm server and there's nothing wrong with that, but I feel like the guys who actually work together to win should be rewarded. I remember the times when people would actually ask for specific races to be played: some races that would otherwise be weak on their own became highly valuable and the enemy team would react accordingly. Nowadays those times are practically non-existant, they were great fun for everyone involved.
 
With the large amount of races that have been/are being created I feel like an EXP reward for winning the round is a healthy route; the fact that people populate our servers during event for double exp proves it to be a valuable and wanting reward.
The exact number of exp would be variable of course, we don't want too much free exp to be given a way, but it should be substantial enough to warrant encouraging teammates to work together.
 
Back to the healthy route of the server, this opens up another way for people to level up. By actually getting exp from winning, you now have to choose between buying tomes of exp or helping your team to win with shopmenu items. Why read tomes when your personal skill can level you up just as fast/faster?
 
I imagine there may be people who try to teamstack with this reward incorporated, but I'm sure our trusty and 100% efficient auto-teambalancer will handle that problem completely. If not we could come with more ideas of course.

CODE THEM ALL PUSSY!

CODE THEM ALL PUSSY!

[K] Antlion: Shake & bonus DMG| HP & Resists| Speed | Regen | [ability] Passive LJ and Short Teleport Ability | [ultimate] Dig Underground
 
[!] Forest Elf (scout, duelies, grenades): Chance to burn on hit | tag enemies (creates a trail) | low grav + LJ | cash steal | [togglable ultimate]You climb up in the air and hide (pushed upwards a certain distance) and become ult immune
 
Motoko Kusanagi: Speed+Lowgrav | Bonus Knife Damage | Shield Resist | Banish Attack | Bonus Damage during ult | [ultimate] temporary invis (not a knife race despite the bonus knife dmg skill)
 
[K] Ronin: Gain10-50% speed boost for 3s when attacked | chance to do +10-50dmg on right click | [ability to switch betwee] 20-60% headshot immunity OR 10-30% speed boost | 10-50% low gravity | Slow enemy by 10-30% | Heal 2-10HP every 3s while still | [ultimate] Gain 50% evasion for some duration 35-15s cooldown
 
Valsharess, Drow Queen: Evasion | Invis Reveal on hit | Ultimate Immunity | small radius ESP that flicks on and off for very short durations | [ultimate] creates a black orb (like unholy paladin radius), players inside the circle cannot be seen and have darkened screens (enemies are darker tho)
 
Any values are obviously subject to change. No guarantee on how long it would take to get it on the server, but likely no longer than a week to have it in tester.
 
Also for the record I'm not voting but if there is a tie whenever I decide to end the poll my vote decides
 
edit: feel free to move your votes around if you think your first choice cannot win 

Just realized Howard can't enforce the "No Balls" rule.

Magnus the summoner's ultimate in the first round doesn't work. War3 server is unplayable right now for me.

Steve fixes coming to the server. Since the race is old, the changes won't go live until the next time server is restarted.(UPDATE: Should be live because thorgot is magical and/or I misunderstood him (probably the former))

I don't intend anything to be a big buff. Fixing the regen required me to buff it for it to be similar (and it is exactly what I want, no need to reload but not human-marineable either).
In fixing the ult calculations I made it much more consistent. You will always get at least 30% (but most likely 40%) damage reduction or 40% bonus speed (but never both). If you get damage reduction you will 99% of the time lose speed as well (a maximum of 25% speed lost for a speed of 75%).
 
Bonus speed cannot pass 80% and damage reduction cannot pass 70%. It will probably often be much less than those two values though, so do not consider it to sometimes be a 5 second shadow hunter ult for the damage reduction. A 70% damage reduction ult should only happen if your team is getting rekt (overall kills are substantially higher for the other team). Because of the changes to the ult this is inherently a buff but the old ult was so buggy that it is more like a bug fix than a buff in my eyes.
 
If you are a nerd and want to see what the Steve ults will look like: https://www.dropbox.com/s/db1indb3o0eiomm/steveultcalcs.xlsx?dl=0
Change the cell for "kill diff" to either a positive or a negative number. A positive number indicates the opponents have that many more kills than you and a negative number the opposite.
The results should not differ beyond -30 and +30 kill differential. These extremes should rarely be reached because of the auto balance feature on the server.
 
Overall the race should feel a lot more consistent though and the bonus damage works (again?), that was the goal.
