Type of Offence Committed: (Turrets clip through the ground)

Time/Date of offence: (22 august - 23 august)

Player/Faction accused : (All of OPG base)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

OPG base turrets clip through the ground, this is from today’s course of events on GG. https://www.dropbox.com/s/8aimlf1736w5tdr/turrets_under_ground.mp4?dl=0, the time stamp was supplied by RED as they reported the AS guys, but you can see the turret can clip through the ground.

Here is a before picture of the very same turret https://www.dropbox.com/s/w51qegqa67f8a3h/OPG.png?dl=0, you can clearly see it clips through.

  1. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

Possible Punishment: Removal of Structure(s) / Guilty / Ban / Loss of Game Progress
Example: Turrets
Turrets are not allowed to clip into blocks. You are allowed to use “decoy” guns/turrets but they have to be fully covered in your structure.

Outcome: This is not so easy to judge. In its original state the Minigun Turret worked as decoy which is totally legit and allowed since it is fully covered by blocks and do not shoot through blocks because it can’t “see” the target. It just works as target decoy as I said.

With your hole you have shot in the video (0:08) this turret got revealed and clipped then obviously.
No intention of clipping was made here and a punishment would only be applied if this turret did any actual serious damage. That is the whole point of clipping > they do damage but you have to break the armor around them first.

Type of Offence Committed: (Exploits - Griefing)

Time/Date of offence: (22 august - 23 august)

Player/Faction accused : (Black Metal, Krep Wals)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

Here is the first report with Red trapping people in boxes and glitching their guns into the the box to kill Goblin [10:37], [11:45], [12:08] https://www.dropbox.com/s/zojtu0dzq4ipkhp/2018-08-22%2009-09-21.flv?dl=0, this is in breach of rules

  1. Exploits
    Under no circumstances will the use of any bugs or exploits for personal gain or profit, or any advantage be tolerated for any reason.
    If you provide evidence (Screenshot, Video, etc.) of someone using an exploit, you may be rewarded.
    Possible Punishment: Temp Ban / Perma Ban / Loss of game progress

  2. Griefing
    Don’t grief! Griefing is considered anything which creates a harassment experience for any player. Trapping in buildings, kill stealing, chat harassment, stealing trade drops, offensive buildings, burying vessels and/or players, etc.

This is the start of the reports, if Red wish to play the report game we will also supply the evidence of Red breaking many rules, fair play is fair play. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

Outcome: While prison someone in PvP is totally legit because he/she does not belong there at all and have fresh start options, this is ignored. (I made it more clear in the rules).
But shooting someone through blocks — I don’t know how — is not allowed, even if invading like that was a suicide trip anyways.
BLACK_METALL lost 50% of credits + RP + guilty (I expect to report to me how shooting through blocks work. Next time a ban is the consequence)

Time/Date of offence: (17-08-2018)

Example: Turrets

Turrets are not allowed to clip into blocks. You are allowed to use “decoy” guns/turrets but they have to be fully covered in your structure.

Outcome: Well, glad it’s history in Alpha 8.5 in 5 days but in certain angles this was clipping and the clipping rule is still active. All 5 HV Tanks built that way got removed from GG. The blueprint creator lost all of his RP and Credits.

Type of Offence Committed: (Using Filler)

Time/Date of offence: (21-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (RED)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

The faction has been using filler nonstop in and around the RED base and OPG have done the same.

  1. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

You are not allowed to use the Filler Tool for any way of building structures. For example for covering your base with it in PvP or griefing in PvE.

All building components, including turrets, must be permanently mounted to a permanent part of the structure, however

Outcome: This was already resolved yesterday. Filling the base gaps with some filler is fine. But not the first picture. As written yesterday, the whole RED faction lost 50 RP and some filler got guilty - first occurrence.

Time/Date of offence: (21-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (RED)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

Red using filling in their base to cover in part of a furnace in their base. Loo to the right and you can see the furnace hid in the ground.

  1. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to use the Filler Tool for any way of building structures. For example for covering your base with it in PvP or griefing in PvE.

Outcome: Nothing. Putting stuff inside terrain under the surface level is allowed and fine.
For that reason you have to destroy the Land Claim Device.
The Filler tool rule is only in place and valid for stuff like this (filling devices etc. above the terrain level with dirt):

Player/Faction accused : (OPG)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

That’s to Red for the video, of the Guns on OPGS base the core of it. You can see the guns clipping through the wall from the core of the base.

  1. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

Possible Punishment: Removal of Structure(s) / Guilty / Ban / Loss of Game Progress

Example: Turrets

Turrets are not allowed to clip into blocks. You are allowed to use “decoy” guns/turrets but they have to be fully covered in your structure.

Outcome: Nothing. Can’t see anything in the video and checking myself ingame the turrets do not clip as far as I can see.

Possible Punishment: Removal of Structure(s) / Guilty / Ban / Loss of Game Progress

Outcome: See two posts above - everything under the terrain level is covered by the Land Claim Device anyways. The objective is to destroy the Land Claim Device first.

Type of Offence Committed: (Turrets barrel clipping)

Time/Date of offence: (23-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (AAA)

Player Faction reporting: (RED)

What happened? Two AAA players come to the Golden globe and build illigal bases with clipping turrets.

Outcome: Clipping is a known rule. But I would appreciate, really appreciate if you could either stop PvP the next 4 days or stop this rule witch hunt, ruining not only your fun but also mine. In Alpha 8.5 it’s fixed.
The AAA player lost 50% of his RP.

Type of Offence Committed: Clipping Base Blocks

Time/Date of offence: 8-23-18 6 pm Central us

Player/Faction accused : TAW

Player Faction reporting: PKA

Was raiding TAW trio of bases on Iceworld and found that 2 bases had blocks clipping into each other.

Clipping Blocks
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1490552645

Blocks with 1 base deleted
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1490552719

Outcome: Don’t see much on the 2 screenshots. Such issues are best verified with the “di” command and ID comparison.

Type of Offence Committed: Intentional Glitching

Time/Date of offence: 8:00-9:00 p.m. EST 08/24/2018

Player/Faction accused : RED & OPG
Player Faction reporting: GCG, SAD, A.S

What happened? Forced their Offline Protection to activate almost or as soon as they got offline as to circumvent the timer.

Why did it happen? They use it to cheat the activation timer as to stop an offline raid.

Evidence: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yxjlxw7ebic5js3/2018-08-25%2003-03-56.flv?dl=0

The outcome: (Our Verdict, within 24 hours-Check back to see this updated and what action was taken)

Outcome: I said it 3 times to all of you already but I repeat the last final time: russians or any player are/is technically NOT able to influence the offline protection (OP) in ANY way! All of your slander that they cheat about it is blatant lie and accusations which are next time punishable.
This is a reproduced bug which occures for everyone, we have reported to Eleon and is hopefully fixed with Alpha 8.5. If not we consider to turn off OP completely in the 8.X season because it does not make any sense then.

Player/Faction accused: [A.S.] - [SXH] - [GCG]

Player Faction reporting: OPG

What happened? Logged in and found a lot of HWS captured ships on our golden globe base

Rule Violated: Using over limits ships with the intent of HWS capturing it

Evidence: (Screens/Video/logs)

The outcome: The punishment for HWS fake limit ships is automatically applied. Everything else is legal — topic: sponge ships. We allow this since resources got wasted to create these ships.

What happened? Player Sephroh dying again and again. You can see it on his screen

Outcome: Your screenshot is very bad showing nothing / was dealt with already! But checking the logs again I see the first lesson was not learned.

50% credits + all RP lost + guilty + Prison for one day.

Player Faction reporting: OPG

Outcome: See above - SXH got sorted already. A.S and GCG were not ammo draining by definition (10+ times within 10 minutes) though. Dying by a raid is not automatically ammo draining.

**Type of Offence Committed:**Op4 “camping” starter area with base

Time/Date of offence: 6:00 server time and possibly longer

Player/Faction accused : Op4

Player Faction reporting: ACP - Ranzeth

**What happened?**Op4 was camping the start points of Lawless Cyro Starter - with svs and a base I believe.

**Why did it happen?**It’s Op4 tradition?

Evidence:

The outcome:

  1. it is legal to camp as long as you don’t have 50 playhours in the new season (check rule 2.1)
  2. but we will update the Prisons to be able to warp back to the Clone Chamber and pick another Biome. Just in case.
  3. I implemented (because of overcrowded) the command “egs:spawn” also on Alliance-Cryo and Lawless-Cryo to be able to spawn once a free tiny SV to leave the planet fast.
  4. If all of that sucks but you still want Lawless as Origin: just reset to Prototype and decide for Lawless at the Decision POI. Then you get teleported to Lawless-HQ => PvE
