Wipe changelog 29/09/2022

Dear Wastelanders,

It has been ages since we did our changelog blog! We’re hoping to change that now, this will be the first wipe changelog since the last one we did on April 15th 2021.

Road Bradley

Everyone knows that camping Bradleys has been a long-term problem. No matter how many we’ve added to multiple monuments, it always remained an issue. Apart from the camping issue, the plugin is very old and starts showing some serious issues. That changes today! Many thanks to Mira who worked effortlessly to realize this completely new approach to Bradley APCs on our server.

Due to this change, we’re retiring the Monument Bradley plugin and our custom WastelandBradley plugin. The latter one will be used for the BradZilla events though!

How does it work?

The new Road Bradley system allows you to spawn your own personal Bradley! Damage and loot are locked to you and your team. To access the buy menu use /buybrad

For the moment, there is a maximum of 10 summoned Bradleys at any time. This value may be adjusted depending on server performance which will be monitored closely in the upcoming wipe.

After summoning a Bradley and reaching it, you can place a sleeping bag nearby and name it “bradley” it will act as an auto spawn point if you die. You can have up to 4 of these; the initial cooldown for the bag must expire before it will work.

Depending on the server population, 1, 2, 3, or 4 free-for-all tanks will spawn on random roads. These have the chance to be either a Hyper Bradley, a MiniZilla, a Practice Bradley, or a very low chance to be a BradZilla.
Damage is locked to whoever did the most damage. 

We’re using the 1-week wipe for testing this new setup. Please leave us feedback on our Discord server.
