    Ok then....then you could have people balancing on golf balls that are on parts of geomerged kill balls. That way if you fall off the golf ball, you die.

    They go through the kill ball. It wont kill them, but it won't like push them out either...

    i find one major flaw with this. Getting the spawn points just right so that you don't instantly die. I think the game will also be insanely short, because the best option would to be not to move on the golf ball, seeing as if you try to walk forward or backwards, you'll most likely fall off of the ball.

    I have an idea! Build the level that the balls are balancing on slightly below the death barrier in the skybox so that they can only stay alive by balancing on the balls! This way, the balls can touch the ground, but the people can't!

    Ah. Flaws indeed. Maybe have it as a race? VIP style where you have to go to certain points. And you spawn on blocks.

    No way you noo..... Oh wow. That would actually work.... Assuming you could geo-merge the walls through the floor far enough. The death barrier is a bit past the grid.

    Or you could be a douche and put the spawns IN the kill ball.

    How do you know the death barrier is past the grid?

    This gametype could never work, so this whole discussion is really pretty pointless.

    Because if it was on the grid you would fall off player made maps and die within 1 second of falling off. That would not be a very realistic or satisfying effect.

    not in the way that they want it to work. It would have to be done over killballs and death-teleporters, and even then, the golf balls won't roll right so you'll die if you try to move.

    The only problem i can see is the way the golf balls roll. Just fly up to the soft barrier in the middle floor and place some walls. Put the soccer balls on those and wala!

    No, I was defending mine and Conkers idea for it. The KillBall plan wouldn't work ever. Like its impossible.
