Here's the fixed infinite ammo plugin, I tested it with the Gunner and it also makes sure C4/beacons don't get infinite ammo.
Both CW.cc servers are running an older version of my GameSpy support plugin that don't support passworded servers, Caveman needs to upgrade to the latest version. As a result of that the server show up as non-passworded on GameSpy.

we did a series of cws just now (first proper gameplay test besides the odd mucking about) - noticed three issues
1. the !ready command worked fine the first map we did it. for subsequent maps, it basically certified itself as !ready even though we hadnt all typed the command yet
2. on cityfly, harvesters didn't work - they just stopped dead after being produced
3. on wallsfly, we got horrible visual errors - could see through the mountain walls, but not see each other or the harvester

2. and 3. are easy to fix. They're one of the dumb issues I discussed in my first reply in this topic. Walls ground isn't affected by the vis bug from the looks of it, while walls fly is.
For the !ready command, could you give me the player count, and whether everyone was loaded? How many subsequent maps were there? Did any green messages show up when someone used chat on those subsequent maps where !ready is bugged? Did it show any of the messages about the game automatically starting in X seconds?

player count: 2v2
i think i was the slowest load, and it seemed like the 10-second count started round about the time i finished loading, or maybe just before. but it also said "gameplay starts in 120/90 seconds etc" at the same time it was counting down from 10.
how many maps: first map was field, !ready worked fine then.
volcano, cityfly, complex, wallsfly, and canyon were bugged. but we skipped cityfly and wallsfly anyway cos of the other issues

Did it do the 10 second countdown immediately after the map was loaded or did the other players type !ready first? Did the exact same behavior happen on subsequent maps?
I just rechecked the code and every time a new map is loaded I set a switch that's used to check whether the match has been reset to false and I clear the list of people who typed !ready like it's supposed to. My suspicion is that it ignores players who haven't loaded yet (because of how shitty the engine is), I have another method to check if all players typed !ready that should always work, if it is indeed an error with this.

thx
apparently the other players - who had faster loadtimes than me - all typed !ready before i loaded. i guess, then, that we could workaround the issue by nobody typing !ready until everyone else is loaded.

cityfly harvesters are fixed, but for some reason i get unplayably low fps (just on that map)
wallsfly visual error doesn't seem to be fixed. the central mesa and a lot of the rocks - plus the harvesters and other players - are invisible to me until i shoot something like the enemy harvester, then everything becomes visible again. odd
but the solution to the !ready issue does work; people just need to wait for all players to load before anyone types !ready.
also, the automatic reset that should happen after 120 seconds doesn't seem to happen; i.e. if you don't do the manual !ready and just let the 2 minutes run out, nothing happens.

Could you make a screenshot of the graphical glitches on walls fly? I was able to reproduce it and I fixed a big one in the middle.
Gonna fix City flying in a bit, the VIS system needs to be recalculated which takes ages (and the level editor never states if it's needed or not).

k:
wallsfly seems to be entirely fixed, thx
cityfly fps seems to have improved, but the harvs not moving is back again. (same problem in the 1st copy of cityfly that was fixed in the 2nd)
and another problem has surfaced: the obelisk fires double shots, for some reason :/ killed an APC in a single volley, by firing twice.

Haha, I know what the issue with that is (and it randomly pops up, just like the issue you had with Walls fly, which I don't think is present on Walls). Yeah the level editor is pretty shit so you always need to check for those issues.
Did you check all the other maps btw? If you want to have changes to costs (or a lot of other possible things) in the future, these headaches with all the map issues won't be present as all the maps are properly prepared and it's just a matter of updating the <map_Name>.ddb inside the .mix file, luckily enough.
Here's a new version of City with the super Obelisk removed and the Harvesters fixed, I also redid the lightning with different settings as it appeared to be off badly (sadly I don't know what settings Westwood used for the lightning on their maps.

Will check the 'Reset Match' plugin in a few hours.

You said earlier in this thread that: "also, the automatic reset that should happen after 120 seconds doesn't seem to happen; i.e. if you don't do the manual !ready and just let the 2 minutes run out, nothing happens."
I can't reproduce this either with 1 or 4 players, does this happen every time on the cw.cc server or randomly?
I've got a new version of the 'Reset Match' plugin, I use a different internal method to check if everyone typed !ready (when a person types !ready), it might fix the issue you were having.
Also, the plugin at the moment spams host messages, on IRC (later when a bot is running) this spam might be annoying, I could change the host message to a white coloured message (with the CMSG console command) that also plays a sound, there's no difference in-game but all the spam won't show up on IRC. Do you like me to add that?

!ready plugin is all fine
one guy did have the visual issues on wallsfly again, i'm not sure if he has the most recent version of the map... but i guess if he had an earlier version it wouldn't even load?
i'll find out
