Early Reveal: STAGE 4
Yesterday, 18:17
When STAG Servers started a couple months ago, STAGE 4 was always meant to be the main attraction. It's the biggest and wackiest server of the entire series and because of that, I'm excited to reveal it two weeks before launch
STAGE 4 is going to be a three-server roleplay experience where each server will be running a different New York city map: RP_NYCity, RP_SouthSide, and RP_UnionCity, all connected via tunnels around the map with global chat across all three. These servers will essentially be a rerun of STRP from last January with a number of changes to spice things up, mainly the addition of the six addons made for Gang War RP.
And now that it's been revealed, I can also reveal the secret parts of the last few progress reports:
For WPR 266, I worked on server ports that will allow you to walk between servers as well as a new way to display global chat messages. Any OOC chats will show your Steam name colored based on your Steam ID, and in-character chats will show your RP name colored as your set player color.
For WPR 267, I continued the server ports, making them spit you out at the corresponding tunnel on the target map and saving and applying select data, such as health. Everything else is pretty self-explanatory except for the "something relating to dying" which is a perma-kill feature, which will allow you to choose to kill your character permanently when they "die." STAGE 4 is not a serious roleplay server; this will all be explained more when the server releases.
These changes have been updated on my Weekly Progress Reports website.
That's all I'll say for now, but join us when this server launches on October 1st!
