It's closed, probably from the last few updates?  

It's closed due to the problem of people boosting inside of the CTF level.  

Lol like anyone played it anyways.

Honestly if they just fix a few of the blocking issues, added permanent leaderboards, and removed the fee to play people would play it like crazy.  

It has been closed due to an inordinate amount of boosting. It was really out of hand by the time of its closure.

That's actually a really good idea. So true  

I played ctf quite often, i would enjoy seeing it come back better then before.  

I think its kind of funny some ppl still don't seem to realize or just found out that its closed atm.  

Yes there is a huge problem with boosting caused by a glitch with the way you die in default. It can't be fixed through scripts so for right now it's closed awaiting Stefan to address the issue.

If he doesn't address it I will try to reopen it via some other method(like reverting your kills back), but the old CTF was also attempting to do this with bombs/arrows but failed spectacularly.

:0 Dusty is a bot. How else would his message post twice?  

while you fix the boosting problem, maybe try to make another map with it?  

Theres a lot of nice things you could do with it while youre fixing it, one thing id like is private matches, so i could just play a round or two with friends.  

there should be key cards for ctf :0 like each day u get 5 cards to play 5 times  

Just delete ctf or make it so you can kill without getting a kill.

If it was this easy I would have done it. I actually spent a lot of time messing with CTF when I closed it, and eventually I had to give up. I did end up converting bows and bombs to a custom ammo value for CTF to eliminate absolutely any chance of players using CTF for cheap ammo. Most of Classic is still using default systems, including hit detection and everything associated with that. So when you kill a player default is providing you the kill, not a script.

I can hackishly fix these issues, but it would be very hard to account for the many various exploits players tend to figure out, and I'd hate for hackish systems to introduce some bad exploit, or worse, do something like accidentally taking away players kills. I would rather address the root of the issues here(respawning with .5 HP), but this is something Stefan needs to fix.

However Railroads are entering the last legs of development so I haven't the time to look at CTF. If I get some free time though maybe I'll check alternative safe fixes.
