I still care about the game and the community, but I think I'm literally going insane.

When I was going to add the hl2wars.fdg to the Hammer game configs, I couldn't find it in the sourcemods folder. Any help?

It was renamed to lambdawars.fdg
It should be in steamapps\common\Lambda Wars\lambdawars

Requisition is an important priority. Usually I upgrade 1 or 2 flags before training units, and my typical goal is to upgrade as many flags as I can while still being safe. Simply being able to make a lot of units is important too. If you have extra resources, keep building more production structure...

Ya. I plan on making a combine mission, but I'm remaking sp_abandoned right now.

Thanks for the feedback anubis. I decreased the ar2 scrap cost to the same as Combine. Will Increase scrap gathering count also and antlion count. But if scrap gathering is increased to 4 scrap every 9 seconds, two Engineers would collect scrap faster than one Combine scrap power generator. Currentl...

What's the logic behind removing the scrap cost from the barrel trap? As it is, with its huge range, it's already a siege tower that only needs to be built slightly outside the view range of the enemy. Is it not already far too powerful, when the Combine's 'artillery' buildings have a per-shot cost...

I suck at making campaigns but sp_abandoned is still in progress.
I plan to make a Combine one afterwards too.

It uses hammer in alien swarm sdk. It's in the tools section of your steam library. There's a tutorial for setting it up in the community maps section.

I think the tournament should have a looser structure and require less management. The first issue is the schedule. We can't rely on players following it, and I'm not sure if they know what do when it's their time to play. We spent a lot of our time tracking down people, and there was confusion with...

Claw Scanner got nerfed?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I'll still use em anyways. :\ not that big of a deal, and in fact, i think they got buffed. 40 power to 30? Heck yes. You guys should have slowed them down. :\ lol Mistakes against mines and not preventing them from being dropped is too unforgiving. The ...

The Factory needs a buff to be worth using over the alternative such as getting Metrocop for Manhacks, maybe allow two Manhacks to be produced at once or build time greatly reduced compared to their alternatives (Scanner included, see below). Another possible buff would be for the Factory to have n...

op posted about it being weak and I posted suggestions for making it better. We know about flash being weak now also.

I don't agree with changing it back so quickly. In HL2 Scanners were mass produced. They were intrusive and suicidal, and behaved almost liked manhacks. The old passive scanners didn't fit the Combine's personality. It would be cool if people could use scanners aggressively in large numbers rather t...

Here are most of the map sizes in hammer units and very rough rush distance times of a rebel soldier. hlw_mine (2 teams, 4 players) size: 6144 x 6144 rush: ~22 seconds, ~6000 units hlw_slums (2 teams, 2 players) size: 7168 x 7168 rush: ~44 seconds, ~10000 units hlw_antarctica (2 teams, 4 players) si...

Well, if the tournament is about having individual winners, then playing with any number of team mates doesn't make sense. Different scenarios would be like special maps or game conditions. With random team mates, people could move forward or get knocked out of the tournament when their individual s...
