The arcade minigame maps have not yet been added to the new lounge map.  MacDGuy, the mapper, wants to redo/optimize the play areas.

I added Leaderboards to the sassilization waiting rooms.  There’s an all-time top ten leaderboard, and then to give everyone a chance there is also a weekly top ten.

There are 3 new advertisements spaces. Unfortunately, someone has already bought all three for himself.

That’s all I have to say for now.

Magicboxes:
There is a grid of 10×10 boxes and you are allowed 1 guess per day (24 hours since your last guess). Each guess will cost you 50 dough. Only one box yields the 1000 dough jackpot. So choose wisely.

Raffle:
Each ticket (you can only buy one) costs 100 dough, and only half of the ticket, 50 dough, is added to the jackpot. Every 2 days the a random winner is chosen and the entire jackpot is given to him/her.

If you find any bugs be sure to post about it in the “Support and Report” forum.

That’s all for now, enjoy.

Happy Halloween!

From the Sassilization Staff.

For the update: Two new maps, citys expand again, and minor inprovements.

sa_olympia replaced sa_olympus (awesome map by sniper)

sa_arcticsummit replaced sa_snowfrost (another awesome map by sniper)

Territories don’t go into water anymore.

Fixed an issue with recycled units clientside.

I now present the most stable unit movement revision to date.

Features (note, these do not apply to scallies. Scallies have their own movement code):

• Units face their enemies when attacking.
• Units do not have collision problems when moving in large groups.
• Less dust clouds on the ground.
• Really smooth movement.
• Larger units do not flip flop when on slopes.
• Units can not walk through walls.
• Instant Response (units move when you tell them to move)

Enjoy guys (and females).

Thanks to those who had to test this with me (against their wills) and did not complain as much as I thought they would.

Here’s the current list of things to do:

• Users listing page
• Searching
• Forum recent activity
• AJAX post editing - Non-AJAX is done and working.
• Some administration stuff

With that list, which may be updated, I will finish this post off with some pictures…

One of our members, <3 Jem, has brought the Half-Life Library to our attention. It is a wiki based around user-created content such as mods, maps, models, etc. The wiki presents a summary of Sassilization as well as some of the current facts regarding it.

I also encourage anyone who sees some information they find incorrect or outdated to create an account and fix it!

Woah, woah!

The only reason I re-added them is because I feel I’ve found a way to solve the towering issue.  A change to the alliance system has been made.  Allies no longer shared land, and they no longer share resources.  They only share victory.  Allies can still see each others’ territories though.

On another note:

Three new maps have been added to the server. Congradulations to sa_angelsarena (by Artificial), sa_highland (by Artificial and I), and sa_olympus (by Gimmik)

Due to complaints of sa_olympus, expect a new map sa_olympia to replace it shortly.  I will also be replacing one other map on the maplist.  Which map would you guys like to see go most?

Current Maplist:

• sa_castlewar
• sa_bridges
• sa_angelsarena
• sa_snowfrost
• sa_crossroads
• sa_spoonage
• sa_highland
• sa_tropical
• sa_losttemple
• sa_castlebase
• sa_olympus
• sa_valley
• sa_field

What will Sassilization 2.0 Bring?

So far, you may notice a few new things.  There is now a word filter, which filters certain discriminatory terms.  There is also an antispam filter, which will kick people on the first offense of spamming, and ban them on the second offense.  Players who are banned three times within a single month period will be perma-banned.  Make sure you’re on your best bahavior at all times.

There will now be rules for Sassilization.com servers. Don’t worry though, there will only be three.

More to come…
