On islands and complex, the warf die zones seem very big: meds or infantry that run close to the warf get killed.
Anyway, I've been talking with danpaul about this and we tried to solve it server side, that didn't work. The die zone doesn't seem to be in the server side file.
Then we thought that maybe it could be solved client side, however without it being a fanmap. Here's where we're stuck: does anyone know how to do this (I think core patch did similar changes)? Any help is welcome. The idea is that people with the client side fix wouldn't get the problem, people without it would probably still get it but the map on the serevr would be the original islands-map.
Thanks.

I've haven't really looked into it, but I've believe it's caused by the vehicle construction script zone, making it smaller might stop it.
Not sure though, this is my theory on it.

For Resurrection, I'm thinking about removing construction zones at all. Only objects, which collide with the constructed vehicle should be killed. So you can even stay inside the war factory construction zone without getting killed, if the vehicle doesn't collide with you.

As it is server side, then it can be easy fixed.
Edit the maps in the server, load them them, fixed.

That's why we thought it's not server side. Any more ideas?

Btw, Mesa is also another map with the zone way too big. It's a bi*** in clanwars because your trying to use the wall to dodge arty shots and you get owned by the harvester coming out of the WF.

Oh well, thanks anyway, mate.

This has annoyed me to no end on Islands. Definitely the worst there. Never noticed it on Complex much, probably becuase I don't take a tank around that way often. Another map not mentioned that it happens on alot is Volcano.

some other things mess up, though, dunno why.

I reckon I've lost about 1,000,000,000 worth of med tank to that bug. Yay for BI!
Renguard is a wonderful initiative
