So I run a 24/7 Dustbowl server and players and even I am wanting to get to the 3rd stage instead of having to wait for that 1 good team to get past the 2nd stage thats so very hard to win. I didnt get to the 3rd stage once for 3 hours! Is it possible to just level up stages after a team wins instead if they lose, starting over. Or any other ideas? Im getting tired of the first and seconds stage, try admining a 24/7 server(I know im not the only 1), I consider myself a Dustbowl expert lol...

I'm not being purposefully obnoxious here but I'm shocked that the players on your server are finding it so difficult.

Have you messed with the spawn timers by any chance?

We're using spawn timers which are just 20% faster than the default and we see the 3rd stage perhaps 1 in every 4 attempts. (the server's not a 24/7 dustbowl server)

If your spawn timers are very fast or instant then I can see why your attacking team would struggle since if the defending team is respawning too quickly they're able to build up their defence too quickly.

Anyway good luck in finding someone to make your mod.

Im using that fun cvar plugin to change the respawn to almost instant, I cant stand waiting. Someone should edit it to let you change each team's respawn value like beetlesmod, but keep it simple.

I was thinking:

Make the blue team (attack) have no wait on teleport, so that the blue team can attack more frequently...

Well speaking of teleports, what I would love is an addon that lets certain people i.e donators not have to wait for teleporters Red should have to wait longer to respawn and blue should get instant, cause instant still means you have to wait anways.
