I was playing today and something screwed up in the game...
Every so often, a bug would occur which would leave us unable to fire.
If you are a mapper, you may know this problem. It's when you go out of the level, you can't shoot. The muzzle lights up but no sound plays and no shot is fired.
The only weapon that works is the flamethrower.
Anybody else got this bug?
I got this bug on both Viper3 and frag4fun.

For anyone reading this in 2019 or later: The RF community is alive on the Community Discord
I encountered the same problem in Viper 3 and Swift Games. All weapons behave as if you're out of the level area. No sound, spastic muzzle flash, no ammunition used. The only weapon that was virtually usable was the flamethrower so everyone was using that. I don't know the cause of it but I know that some servers haven't experienced it. I don't know what to think.
Someone has made a server jamming mod which basically lets you throw loads of mines which makes all weapons not work, except flamethrower. Only retards wanna do this, so look out for people using it. Aparently (CC) clan use it...

Is it a mod or a glitch? Being one or the other produces different circumstances. Being a glitch it can trash the fun of any server, if it's a modification it will have the same effect but limits itself to versions 1.2 and below.
It is a mod. Read this thread... it explains everything.

I had just been there to find it ironically, yes it seems they're pointing it to certain people. I wouldn't accuse anyone of creating it, all I know is there's going to be a work-around to prevent this from ever happening again, that is if people know what's best for the game.
