I'm opening this topic to list what modes and settings we have avaliable so far for TNS so anyone who wants to suggest something new or a combination of them that we haven't thought yet can do it here:

+ Usual Pain Rotation:
- 2x Monsters Damage.
- Fast Monsters.
- 2x Monsters Strenght. (don't use it much)
- Player_damage_factor. (For Hell&Hell mode)

+ Randomization:
- Normal randomization.
- Total randomization. (We didn't try this till a few weeks ago and it was pretty fun Razz)

+ Others:
- Kill them all + Find them all (secrets).
- Quake HP progressive loss.
- Vampire mode.
- Communisation. (Picking an item will give it to every player but won't respawn again).
- Flying mode.
- Timed mode.
- Random Damage mode.
- HP timed regeneration (not vampire)
- Ammo regeneration.

Added timed mode. (Inspired by Frenchies session #5, compiled by rhinoduck)

When timed mode is enabled players have a determined time to finish the map, killing monsters will add more seconds to this count. If the count reaches zero... all dead!

Added random damage mode. (thanks to our duck in the shadows)

When random damage mode is enabled a counter in percentage units will appear in right side of the screen, that counter indicates how much the damage of monsters will be multiplied for and it changes every interval of seconds. You have to addapt your tactics to what damage multiplier it is on in that moment, it can even be negative damage so you get healed (or damage multiplied x1000 so you get raped by a zombieman shot lol).

Edit: also HP regeneration added, thanks to Sr69Mm-JC for that.

Duck added ammo regeneration. This will help to spice up total randomization game mode. Cool

I wasn't sure where I should post this, so I'm using this thread... I made an ACS script which announces when the players die in rapid succession. I deliberately made it similar to Unreal Tournament 1999 multikills announcements, except they are played when the monsters score the kills. The script doesn't discriminate between individual monsters, I've been unable to make it work so far (though now at least I have a hunch how it could be done). I made it with TNS in mind, but it is possible that in the end, the announcements will become annoying instead of funny, especially in pain rotations...

At any rate, here you can download a test WAD (source inculded), warp to Map30 if you need to die quickly. It worked when I set up a server on localhost, but I don't have access to a "real" Zdaemon server, so I have no idea how it will behave when the players have large pings, bad packets etc.:

Unfortunately, I will need TNS admins' help before we can even think of using the scripts in regular TNS sessions. There are so many TNS scripts already and they are so convoluted there is no way I can integrate them alone. Namely, these things need to be ironed out:

1. Assign script numbers so there are no collissions. For some reason, the scripts don't work anymore when I use the Rhinolib naming scheme (I used ACC 1.54).
2. Rework it so it reuses player TIDs assigned by other TNS script(s).
3. Integrate it with scripts which change text size according to player's screen resolution. Also we need to find text position etc. so they don't overlap other texts.
4. Possibly add Cvars so the announcements can be disabled/changed from the console. I actually had this done, but I couldn't figure out where TNS scripts define their default Cvar settings (when server restarts).
