To avoid this, mappers can set 2 (or more) teleport-exits;
the engine should choose between them randomly,
which lowers the chance for telefrags.

An aritificial anus? Sure, it's known as a colostomy.

The teleport thing? Well yeah, that works too. It's just not something traditionally seen in DM maps for the precise reason that it introduces too much unpredictability.

In my opinion..I've been playing Doom 2 since it came out circa 1995.
and I can say that..Doom 2 was made indeed for the purpose of frag kills with barrels..otherwise they would not explode with such a blast radius..I'm a coder, and everything has a radius..the fellows at idsoft used this for a reason, and your a newb...You should change your strategy..to include barrels + people in your equasion so you don't suck as bad..It's always been this way and your not up for it..well die with the wretched..I will always be a doom supporter when it comes to doom and doom2..they were in fact what made me start coding and developing games..which now I develop my own 3d engines.and such..but yes I've got killed by barrels..and I don't regret it..I love it...use that as an advantage..the only thing I don't like are the BFG spammers..but then they were included in the game so I can't complain..so quit whining..N00b

Ahh..the telefrag implement..this was introduced with Zdaemeon..this wasn't the original game..you had no teleport like you do in it..so I say insta teleport..and you get a chance to get instakilled.. your entering a territory that is unknown...let's say the world goes after a certain country and used a teleport device into a base that had 500 people guarding it..do you think they would take mercy on you? such as a new game uses..unhonorable kills..or something? no not in this game..your on mars..you get killed thats it..come back to life which is a miracle on its own..so..quit yur harpin..

I fail to be convinced of the logic here. If barrel-frags are flawed, then so are many, other things in this game. Environmental kills are used in other games in this fashion, like cutting a rope to release.. barrels, or dropping sand blocks on someone to suffocate them (yes that does count as points in SMP)

I don't ever remembering barrel shots giving you points, but if they somehow decide they should then why the heck not?
