Then enjoy 1.09.2 for eternity. Black won't be put back in.Shadow said:
I really don't understand the complaints on this one. We did that to fix a serious issue that many people were complaining about, for good reason. If you want a black character WAD, simply color him black in the WAD and make another part of him change color. You want to play as black in Starlit Warehouse, and you can go take your cheap idiocy somewhere else, because I for one am tired of not being able to see my target against the starry sky.
I just want to point something funny out.
Well, we're close now. Does that mean the world is going to end now? =P *shot*

Just use another colour, there's only 15 others to choose from. After black was taken out, I just used gold.
Almost any of the colours could be used as camoflage (SP?) in a map, like beige in airborne temple. Ever tried shooting a grey Knuckles in thunder citadel? :P

The problem is that people probably want to play as something similar to Shadow in "professional" games. I have a solution in mind that could work half-way, though...
I was actually going to put this in suggestions, but I may link to this post. Why not add more restrictive optins in netgames? I mean, restrict people from using certain colors, characters (UNLIKE Forceskin, would restrict, say, one skin, like BANSKIN ZIM, and BANCOLOR BLACK). Also, maybe restrict certain control schemes (like, maybe no mouselook *killed*). Or even certain techniques (BANMOVE THOK for circuit races).
I still go with my idea of adding in "forcecolor". Just like Tets said, to have that option be a secret option, that only you guys know.
Simply have an option for removing certain colors was actually considered first as our solution. It's not that black is the only abusive color, anyhow.Dark Warrior said:
The thing is, however, that we do not want to have to set a billion settings just to play a normal game. The game should default to the optimal play settings. Also, the only REAL loss of this, black character skins, such as Shadow, can simply be recolored to fix it. Finally, simply removing a color is also a LOT less work than a feature to ban certain colors from the game. The more elegant, simple solution wins out, and people are just going to have to accept it.
Our objective here is to provide the most fun game we possibly can. This means fixing issues that disrupt the game balance or allow for abusive tactics. When everyone in a netgame is playing as the same color to gain an unfair advantage, that's not fun for anyone. Being forced to choose your color based on what works the best in the stage is also not fun. What if I don't like to use black? I shouldn't have to use it to gain an unfair advantage. Personally, I think the loss of one of the more popular colors is a small price to pay to repair the game balance, which I will note, is my #1 priority in multiplayer affairs.
Simply removing black because you couldn't see another player is stupid. Anyone could abuse just about any of the colors in SRB2. Taking out one of them won't fix the problem, unless of course the problem was simply a personal problem instead of one other players complained about. If you really don't want a player to use a color in a certain level, tell them so at the beggining of the level. If you must, kick them if they do not comply.
No, taking out one of them won't fix the problem, however, it will fix the most SEVERE problem. There's no way to REALLY fix it, short of making all the colors fullbright or something, but black is particularly bad because of the way it blends into ANY dark area.ViralZero said:
I guess you could call it a personal problem. I remove all exploits I find myself using. I found myself switching colors to abuse the trick. When I find myself doing something like that, I ask myself whether or not this is a mechanic that is bad for the game, or would actually be beneficial. Should intentionally changing colors to make it hard to see you be a gameplay mechanic? As far as I'm concerned, the answer to that is "no". Yeah, it's possible to abuse other colors. Silver can be a slight issue in levels with THZWAL01, but it's nowhere near as flagrant as black against any light level below 140.
Many other exploits have been found and been rid of in a similar manner. This one just happens to be something that people are obviously going to notice, while things like disabling GR_FOV in netplay just aren't particularly noticable to the user.
