Help wanted for upcomming Napoleonic Wars patch

[Johny_Nawalony]

Probably not possible, but I've seen a suggestion to have customised patches or something, like the logo of a reg (the player-created kind) on a shoulder or backpack or whatever.

U joking right?

[tired]

Oh I just remembered one that bugs the crap out of me.
 I'm currently full at 82 maps AI meshed for bot Survival, which I even mapped most of the developer maps. Which you guys can actually have the meshed versions from me if you want to put into the new patch.
But on to the point, we want to add even more maps, but since it's full, we only have the custom maps left. But we always have the maps voteable for the public, and people can't vote the custom maps. I know it might be a client thing though not a server side fix.

[Mikimak]

it does?   are you able to recreate that?    are you referring to some millisecond where a crate may float in the air when it explodes before it disappears?(which idk if it does)   

or are you referring to a stack of crates that blow up, but the top one doesn't right away?

mm_sp_crate_explosive is special crate react on hit. It explode on weapon impact.
I dont seen this object on any standard map, but will be nice if you fix that.

Would be nice to maybe rename some of the units or give them new skins. We've had the same stuff for years now.

I do recall that there was a hussar cavalry unit that had a light infantry sabre which made them inferior to others; Is this still a thing?

....82 maps?  yikes.   if you have 82 maps, i would guess there would be a few that dont get played that often, maybe aren't as like as your other maps, been there a while so they start to get old, etc,.    i guess my point is, couldn't you just rename a few of them, so they are still on the server, and replace them with some new maps.    you can always go back to the older ones. 

you could make it so custom maps are in the rotation, so they are played regularly.  This may make it so people who want to play those maps can, without needing a poll.  the regular maps can still be in the rotation, or played via voting.   idk, this is one solution to your problem.   maybe you already do this, or thought of it and didn't like it.  I dont play BBG that often now a days so idk how you do your stuff. 

there is this mod.  https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=9596.0

kinda goes along with what you are talking about.   would need client side changes though among other changes.

If this wasn't a server side patch, but a regular one, i would more than likely say yes to using your vanilla maps.  problem is that if a server uses these maps, and most people wont have them on their client, they would need to DL each and every map.(some of them are a very long dl)   while people could take them and add them to their client, most people wouldn't do it or know about it.

i'll add it to the list.  though, this is probably a minor one as you said.

some units were using a light cav saber, that was shorter than the french one.  i made them the same in my patch.

Make bayonets of all nations same length + Blocking glitch.

[Johny_Nawalony]

There was some issue with French Old Guard hangers, as when they were sheathed they had different model as i remember

I think the biggest issues that needs fixing is the block glitch and the autoblocking hack.

In relation to FineApples's comment:

Just to add to that big boat, there's one stair that is buggy walking up. The other is smooth.

[Thunderstormer]

i believe we are getting near the end of work for this patch.  so with that being said, is there any bugs that haven't been mentioned already that you think are fixable?  i will probably update the server today with some of the latest changes.

[Eternal]

I am unsure if it's based on NW or M&B:Warband, but some people crash while alt tabbing from the game. Is this possible to fix?
