I've been trying to get Oddball working when played in rounds, but my attempts thus far have resulted in the Oddball respawning every 5 seconds during the second and subsequent rounds (5 seconds is the respawn time set in the game mode options). I do have a round counter variable/script that keeps track of the current round. Do I need to create (N rounds) number of oddball spawns and spawn/despawn the corresponding spawn point each round, or is there another route to go that I'm not thinking about? Edit: Also, setting the ball respawn time to 0 seconds in the options prevents the ball from spawning at all, and the max timer for respawn is 60 seconds, which is much shorter than the round timer (which I have set at 3 minutes). I guess the good news is that the ball will never go out-of-bounds, so it technically never needs to respawn, but I can't set the respawn timer to 0 per the above, and I think/feel that ripping the ball out of the carrier's hands each minute is odd (pun somewhat intended). But it clashes with the first round which doesn't do that, so the gameplay would feel weird. Edit 2: Adding additional ball stands to the map just makes the Oddball rotate between spawns every 5 seconds.
Noted a similar (in fact, identical to my recollection) issue with this gametype (map to go with gametype) immediately after the Oddball update came out. Given that this gametype was known to be working prior to the release of the Oddball update, I'm of the belief that something in the Oddball update changed respawning for ball objects in multi-round gametypes - and this may not be something we can fix ourselves.
Here's a link to the video of it not working: http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/radar3301enigma/video/45958628 I nerfed the round timer for demonstration purposes. (Also, I giggled at my actions... it's been a long, horrible day...)
This is a glitch which i discovered the very first time i tested Grifball courts. It happens to me in the second round and onward. It also sometimes happens when i host Grifball tests, and happened in one of the Hammerfall selection videos. It is also one of the reasons Matchmaking Grifball has remained a single round. Now, i must note that there has never been a case of this reported in thousands of games in GrifballHUB league play, and as far as i can tell it only happens to forgers testing maps. Not sure how true this, but that's my conclusion until i see evidence of it happening elsewhere. [edit] The default game type for league Grifball is 9 rounds, or first to 5 points. [edit2] I did report this to 343i sustain team just before the first Grifball refresh, but i have not heard if the issue was ever investigated.
read the edit - multi round I found this video from 1 Oct 2016. Unyshek was in the game but i am not sure if he reported the glitch. Jump to 57:33
