External Turrets
Placing a turret externally is permitted but precautions must be taken so not to impede other players. Its useful to know there are two modes you can use, "Attack All" and "Peacekeeper".
Attack All - will target any other player it see's. Uses Red Laser sight.
Peacekeeper - will target only hostile players. Used Green Laser sight.
Using Turrets on a roof top
Roof top turrets can be used in "Attack All" mode providing they can not see players at ground level. Other players should be able to walk right up to your base and NOT be shot!
Using external Turrets at lower or ground level
Placing an external Turret at lower or ground level where players can be targetted when walking past, or upto your buidling is permitted but the Turret MUST be in Peacekeeper mode. The only excepton here is if the ground floor or lower level turret is contained within walls - at least half height walls are recommended.
External Traps
• Flame Turret
• Shotgun Trap
Using the above listed traps on a roof top
Other players should be able to walk right up to your base and NOT be shot or Burnt!
Using the above listed traps at lower or ground level
Players should be able to walk past, or upto your buidling without being shot or burnt. To achieve this you maye need to have the external traps contained within walls - at least half height walls are recommended.
SAM Site
We strongly recommend keeping your SAM site in "Peacekeeper" mode to avoid shooting down other player helicopters. Should this occur, your risk being Banned! To date there are only two exceptions where you can put the SAM site into "Attack All".
• Shooting down the NPC attack helicopter for loot.*
• Shooting down a player in a attack helicopter who is destrying your base or firing on you. Make an admin aware immidiatly afterwards.
When switching to "Attack All" mode please only have it in this mode for as long as needed. Once the threat is gone or out of range, or the NPC Attach Helicpoter has been shot down switch it back to "Peacekeeper" mode.
If another, non-attacking player's helcopter is shot down, you risk at worst being Banned. At best you will be replacing any loot that can't be recovered and purchasing a new helicopter for them. Other punitive measures may apply!.
