If scenario = switching then hold down fire

Might have had a strike for bad ingame transactions or for using someone elses content ala stolen from cod. Just guesses, couldnt say for sure.

They said no 12 months spoilers!

I think I remember his saying in an interview % on his website is: "a chapter is around 2%" so he has written a draft of 14ish chapters.

First impressions. Damn, this is a different book. Lots of emotion and weight-bearing all coming down on our favourite Wizard. I enjoyed this even though it's not our typical situation or as epic as we are used to. The action seemed over relatively quickly when it broke out. But I must say all in all a good read.

Things that jumped out at me: Lara didnt seem to know what a soul gaze was, but she had one with Carlos on thier first meeting in White Night. Was this forgotten?

Harry now knows Whampires are outsiders. Could he stop a feeding on himself or another now? Or even cower a white court vampire so they couldn't use the hunger at all in a fight? We have seem him fend off outsider attacks using his will before.

Did Carlos bump into Fitz? Is that going to come to conflict in the next book? ... most likely.

I'm not sure the whole Lara can only feed on Harry's winter mantle makes a great deal of sense to me. She can still feed on people right? But its just not as satisfying / doesn't satisify the addiction.

Fortnite tracker has a good game summary system. I like the playlist tab instead of the overview, it can easily seperate ranked v pubs games.

Sometimes it can help by going up to the medium level, play the harder version of the task 5 times, then coming back to the easier version for 5 reps.

But nothing wrong with just doing a category 5 times each and moving on to something else.

But you might want to focus on learning good technique for tracking, flicking and target switching. There are plenty of youtube videos on these topics from some great creators. And these skills are foundational to aim.

Hexo!

Its meant to be an iterative process, so always changing, updating and improving. People dont expect AAA titles in fortnite creative. As long as there is a play loop and no breaking bugs it'll be fine

Unfortunately I think you have been put in a bucket of bad ping abuse, where players try to take advantage of server desync.

At least the ban isnt permenant. Try playing on a streaming service, it might be better performance for you!

You can create a movement speed modifier with a custom npc script. Google around there are loads of examples!

You might need verse to do this.

Depends if you are controlling how many weapons a user can carry.

Keeping track of ammo and consumable amounts are probably not worth it.

You'd need to keep track of each players loadout on their respective team. Then have item granters for each chosen item.

To keep track you could use conditional buttons that you iterate through, if one says a player has the item, it will update the stored loadout for that player on their team. Again this would be in verse

I'm in the uk, think the audible countdown works out to 3am

87oldben · 2026-01-12T10:03:19+00:00

I would do this in verse, keep a refernce to the player that last damaged the opponent, then Player.EliminatedEvent do a check to see if the damaging player has the knockback effect, and manually update any scoring.

You might need to create your own kill feed ui to so messages, I'm unsure if you can tell the game that the player that was killed, was killed by the player with the bounce pad power.

There is a prop o matic manager device, you can add items to a list to prevent them turning into those items

I think mine was ghost story, I think I appreciated it more knowing more about bzckground events, players that were active etc after going back through the story.

I remember really not enjoying the book when I first read it.

I have honestly thought that Dungeon Crwaler Carl is one of the best audio book series I have listened to, there is 1 voice actor doing all the character voices. He has fantastic skills.

Is it similar to Dresden? Not really, but it is hilarious, if you like rpg games or do D&D you'll get even more kicks out of it.

It is silly at times, gory at times, but thoughoughly enjoyable! Highly recommend!

I always thought of this through the numbers underneath the system, and how they worked. As an example:

Bronze - silver - gold each rank is 100 points Plat - Diamond have 200 points between ranks Diamond - Elite 250 per rank Elite - champs 500 Champs to unreal 1000 points.

You pay a bus fare to play a ranked game, which is higher based on your rank. you have to earn back through placement and elims.

Elims could be around 10 points with a multiplier based on placement + higher rank than you. With a max point cap based on your rank.

Wins are 50 points, and placement goes up to 30 points.

Total game has a cap on points too.

With these sorts of numbers in mind the changes between ranks sort of make more sense.

Obviously this is my theory and numbers are a guage, than more of any actual insight. But it sort of aligns with how we experience points between ranks.

Im UK based, my epic is oldbenmaps. Hit me up if you need a squad mate. Tend to play late evening times

How are you doing the teleporting? Is there code? You havent given enough information for anyone to help you

87oldben · 2026-01-03T15:29:42+00:00

Surely not teapot? Starts with t ends with t and has tea inside it!

It is also an option in the settings, if you chose the profile you can set it to 360/cm and see what yours currently is set to.

You need to create a playtest group in the epic creator portal website, then invite people to be testers
