    Greetings,

    It has come to my attention that any vehicle that is build from a vehicle factory (vf) get launched out like a rocket.

    It happened to me a lot now that any obstacle (like a wall or turret) cause the vehicle I'm in to flip over, resulting in a damaged, or even worse, destroyed vehicle.

    I noticed the console has the following command, sadly I can't use it unless I set the cheat cvar to 1.
    Does anyone perhaps know a cvar, a plugin or some other way around this? It's starting to get quite annoying :eek: :(

    Cheers for the help!

    You could ask a server to change it, but I'm quite happy with turbo vehicle creation. It helps you learn to drive.

    What do you mean exactly with "ask a server to change it"?

    I'm hosting a server and I can't seem to find the command for it to slow it down, thats what my first post is about :)

    Sorry, I misunderstood.

    You can set it up in the configs, something like

    sv_cheats 1
    g_vehicleexitspeed 30
    sv_cheats 0

    That should do it, maybe?

    I'm sure most cheats stay on as long as cheats were on when it was put through console.

    Have you tried it?

    Rawh, this is a feature to prevent griefers to block the vf, don't mess with it too much.

    Don't get me wrong, the feature is sweet to have a boost. The boost atm is just to much. When a comm (or some griefer?) builds something infront of the vf, they can easily just accomplish the same, by making the vehicles flip over or collide into something else, making it unable to play :(

    I think the factory should prevent anything from being built in front of it, and yeah, the exit speed needs work. I say reduce it to 25%.

    It is weird that this happens on your serer, but I havent seen it anywhere else. I find it hard to believe that the standard setting is very high, and any other server I have played on has had it changed manually to a lower value. It suggests to me that something is wrong with your server configs ... I have never heard before of someone who has started a new server needing help with this.

    It's mostly on Glycen City, but it happens on ANY server.

    I laughed so hard when I mined the enemy VF, just to figure out that the tanks coming out were flying over my mines. xDDDD

    Personally I like how they sort of just burst out of the factory. Its like christening a boat with a bottle of port (PUN) somehow.

    I had to re-read your message several times to get your pun.

    I realised, I had originally, and thought it was so bad, I repressed the memory of it.

    Wasn't even funny bad. Please, STFU and GTFO. Geese. >_>

    I managed to flip vechicals parked in front of the VF with a new one.

    Does that count?

    Vehicles were mainly flipping out due to the crappy lag on the server. Also the comm had placed turrets in front of the VF, not to intentionally block vehicles, but with the speed the vehicles came out combined wit hthe lag it was very hard to build a vehicle and then not instantly flip it on the turrets.

    Yeah,
    today we got a radar infront of a vf, that made my lt barrelroll (np it landed on the wheels after rolling again), but thats a setting which shouldn`t stay for long time, any wall or engy building can be used to grief! :headshot:
    you cant even stop that by driving backwards, it wont stop fast enought
