Is there any way, using the map config file, to disable/turn down the splash damage of the laser, so it cant be used to laser jump?

What you'd want to turn down or disable is the primary force if you want to prevent laserjumping.
Use something like this

Code: Select all

// set up the exit cfg so we can reset values to what they were before
set exit_cfg "maps/ctf_torus_exit.cfg"

// make a backup
set BACKUP_g_balance_laser_primary_force $g_balance_laser_primary_force

// map-customized values here
set g_balance_laser_primary_force 0

// and on with the rest of the mapconfig

set g_ctf 1
set fraglimit 300
set timelimit 20
changelevel torus
cd loop "8"

// reset laser force
set g_balance_laser_primary_force $BACKUP_g_balance_laser_primary_force


ctf_basement had this setting at one time I think.

Who said it was a CTF map?

Thanks though. I think I get it.
