Hi guys.

 

Was playing on the siege server today and encountered some (at least I consider it) kind of bug.

The wooden gates at flag can only be opened from the inside. This lead to some bizarre situation when two attackers managed to get inside and close it.

Some defenders then tried to chop the gate down to get to flag since you can't stop the enemy from caturing otherwise. One of the admins (Prade, not blaming him for doing so)

then kicked some of the gate destroyers.

Is there any chance you could fix the gate so it can be opened by both sides or replace it by some other prop that can.

 

Thanks for your work!

Its not a bug, I think this is just stragetic to do (stand at flag ans let noone in)and an admin should watch why they are chopping down the door and for this reason it is k

[Remono]

Well the kicks got out even if it was for this reason, so you either need to instruct your admins not to kick or the door needs a fix, in my opinion.

 

And when talking about strategic I don't think defenders ever got locked out of their own castle ever in history ^^

I don't think we can do something. Those gates work like that in the game. If attackers get inside without break it, is because defenders are stupid and open it when attackers are near, like they do in other maps (ex. minas tirith).

there are many maps (not only Motte) with this kind of doors, and it works like KA said, defenders should be enough clever to manage/use this, if they know how to play, ofc

the idea is that defenders can use doors to go out, but if they leave the "security" of castle going out, its a/his problem, and doors keep closed to all outdoor

Well the only problem on this map is that it's the only map where you can absolutely lock the flag by closing, other maps have those gates more away from flag and more defenders spawning inside.

 

Another issue on this map just occured today: when shooting the gatehouse with a trebuchet while the gate is closed you won't be able to ever open the gate again in this round.

well for first problem, it should be solved for team defending, think

 

for second problem, I saw this online so yes, this map need re-edition to fix some bugs, same that Citadel map, which have same problem when someone destroy gatehouse, and some objects remains in the air after destruction.

 

btw, until re-edition, attackers can pass trought, using little ways at sides of gate bugged, so defenders should build barricades after this happen at least...

not easy but this add realism

 

Thanks for info.
