A short notice to players who are not members of CloneWarsRP and appear to be upset about the amount of attention this server has been getting...

I'd like to ask for you to please take into consideration the fact that CWRP is a breath of fresh air for me, after doing MilitaryRP and DarkRP for almost 10 years now, and largely being burnt out from the routines of editing maps, weapon configs, and alot of repetitive motions.
I am still very much interested in updating our other servers (and I have been) but at this exact moment, ensuring our community thrives and grows within Garry's Mod is my priority, and CloneWarsRP is temporarily my primary focus as we are able to reach out to a new audience. Not only that, but I'm trying to bring CloneWarsRP to be on-par with our other servers in a months period, whereas our other servers were gradually brought up over YEARS times.

Coruscant Guard Handcuffs

Players will no longer be able to break out of handcuffs

Handcuffing players will now occur instantly, and there's no need to chase offending players

Dragging power has been improved as to disallow other players from throwing CGs off-course

Simulations Room

Out with the old, in with the new

Upon entering the Sims room you will be welcomed by a large projector displaying the options available for the simulations room

Once a sim is claimed by a player (possibly locking to officers only in the future)

A selection of available Sims will appear:

Once selected a sims, chat will print a message

Upon completion and as to allow new players to parttake in sims, the following will print once a user has reported back:

EDIT: THIS PORTION OF THE UPDATE WAS DELAY TO A LATER TIME, I SPENT AN UPWARDS OF 5 HOURS TRYING TO FIX AN ISSUE IN REGARDS, AND COULD NOT.

Package Delivery

A fun, passive way to earn cash and XP for new players looking to learn the map

Approach the local ARF Mailman located next to the Hall of Fame entryway

Server Optimization

A general optimization patch has been pushed, targeting NPCs and their performance.

As opposed to looping through all living NPCs at an interval, I have instead decided to allocate their unique attributes on spawn. This means NPCs spawned through different means other than those located in my own addons may be somewhat broken until I fix them for each specific implementation.

Context Menu

After a literal 8 hours of trial and error investigating what's causing a conflict in our server's code, I have magically found the addon and fixed our context menu

You can now easily whitelist people by simply holding C and right clicking their playermodel

additionally, I've re-enabled the halo effects that takes place when a player is highlighted via the context menu

This feature may be FPS intensive, but hardly used so it should not cause a major issue

Prop Pack

An additional ~90MB (uncompressed) worth of models has been added onto the server

All models were ported over from Clone Wars Adventures and may be used by many systems, IE: cooking quest

Wednesday at 07:00 PM

Ahsoka's Tano lightsaber SWEP has been created

Skill Tree

Dual wielding has been added to Tree 'Forms' for 3 skill points

Scoreboard

senioradmin > S. Admin

Misc

Quest System

Potentially fixed issue with Quest System causing player data to corrupt when data is saving while a player disconnects

All cuffs are now re-useable, meaning, once you detain a player, you do not have to respawn in order to do so again

Gamemaster

Prop limit has been raised from 50 to 125

Donator Weapons

All buyers were given dual DC-17S

unfortunately, as a titan, switching to the classes still doesn't work cause its not "VIP"

He means that even with a whitelist, and even with being a VIP, you can not switch to the whitelists. At least that is true for padawan.

I am safely assuming you both missed this portion of the update:

Jedi Padawan, Knight and Master classes have been replaced with path-specific classes, IE: Guardian, Consular, and Sentinel

You will be able to access these classes as VIP members.

January 21

2 hours ago, BatHulkSmash said:

awesome, did you happen to fix VIPs/Titans not being able to switch to Jedi classes?

That's because they can't access by default. Youngling is the class you can access as a VIP, but you then need to rank up in order to unlock the rest.

January 21

Skill Tree

Forms tree is now available for non-lore jedi classes

Arrest System

CGs may simply cuff and drag a member on the server towards a jail cell at the brig, and they will automatically be arrested, printing the following into chat for log-keeping

Jedi Order

Jedi Padawan, Knight and Master classes have been replaced with path-specific classes, IE: Guardian, Consular, and Sentinel

Fixed fall damage script - now disallowing lore jedi and jedis in general to take fall damage

Mace Windu's lightsaber color is now ever so slightly more Mace Windu lightsaber's color

Hey man I didn’t bitch to you since the first day I already made peace with being 7 points behind but I love seeing the change amongst the rest of the update.

NOW YOU'RE NO LONGER 7 POINTS BEHIND. ENJOY BEAUTIFUL SOUL

please let me know it works.

edit: just realized this requires another restart as I forgot to upload the lua file

January 18

Big thank you to @special, @AlexConway for ideas, testing, and organizing portions of this update to be released in a 24 hour window!

Also thank you to @Oboshi, @Remake and a few more for getting on the test server and checking out if everything is in working order

[1/18/2022]

The release of Jedi classes!

Skill Tree

Point Resetting

Following some very directed bitching by @Ozzy which I couldn't deny made sense, I have fixed the Skill tree to assign you Skill Points based off your level, versus based off how many skill points you have. This will eliminate the discrepancy between old players who did not earn XP points for every level, as well as ancient players who have hundreds of points.

Custom Skinned DC15As

Yes I spent many hours on this and paid another developer a fee to get those ported into unique SWEPs, but also, you know it's a good update when this is the least interesting portion of the update post

Available Paths

Trooper

The skybox is still a bit too low, but if it's entirely impossible that's fine. If there is a possibility somewhere, could it be put into future plans?

Absolutely in a future map revision, just not in the current map, as that is quite literally impossible.

Please raise the sky box with this. Other than that, great update

Sadly it's not possible, that's a map editing feature. Also, the skybox is plenty high to fly

US Playermodels

Massive thank you to @special for taking the time to grab all of US's playermodels and condensing it into one playermodel pack for our server. This step saved me hours of headache, and also reduced the load times for everybody else playing the server.

Plus, did a way better job than I ever could as demonstrated in his screenshots:

January 2

This update is bizarrely long so I will try to compress the information as much as I can,

alot of items were also forgotten about, so don't be surprised if there's more new things in-game to discover

Character Skill Station

Albeit with a currently broken UI, the server's skill tree has been added in

Upgradeable perks include max health, armor, and movement speed

After destroying the server for an hour or two with you by roleplaying having COVID and explosive diarrhea, I think it only makes sense we continue to do so over staff chat.

Accepted

I had set your rank, and we'll figure out who's going to be training you depending on when you get online next.

December 30, 2021

Thank you to everybody who beta tested

~200 unique players reaching 66 players at peak

Optimization

Lag on beta testing was unbearable

As such, some addons have been partially rewritten for optimization

Public addons were upgraded to remove "Digital Right Management" systems as to spare server bandwith and CPU usage

Tickrate was dropped significantly as it should not matters significantly in a PVE server (unlike MRP's PVP)

Events

Re-created every mission type on the server as per @Ziggy's request to have them more RP oriented

Events will no longer carry an OOC hud presenting a scoreboard/most kills, as well as CIS equipment health (IE: MTT's Health Bar)

Instead, the events will start randomly, unreported, and will go on until discovered. Once discovered, AI will notify the server with a brief message, examples:

Upon destroying the Events' objectives, the NPCs will persist for minutes after the event depending on server's CPU usage, and if lower population count, they will persist until eliminated.

/endevent command added to forcefully end event if GM is hosting a 'real' event

Current Event Types:

Village Distress

Difficulty: HARD

Player:NPC Count - 1:1

Radio Tower Jam

Difficulty : EASY

Player:NPC Count - 3:1
