Description /dev/humancontroller 2009-05-07 10:32:50 EDT 
I can deconstruct the last node by synchronously deconstructing the last 2 nodes.
Comment 1 Tim Angus 2009-05-07 10:38:25 EDT 
Using 2 clients? Within the same frame?
Comment 2 /dev/humancontroller 2009-05-08 00:22:49 EDT 
Yes. It can be done by agreeing on a decon time, but it's a lot easier with a modified client which responds to triggers. For example, saying "x1234now!" causes a "deconstruct" command to be issued (on both clients, immediately).
Comment 3 Chris "Lakitu7" Schwarz 2009-10-07 22:26:40 EDT 
This should be fixable by simply calling G_CountSpawns() when one decons the second-to-last spawn, bus is it even worth it for how difficult this is to do?
Comment 4 Tim Angus 2009-10-17 19:06:14 EDT 
I agree.
