Since lava camping is annoying or unfair, why not give the firepower a cooldown? If the firepower(the fire resistance thing) gets activated, it will have a 5-10 second use. Enough for vip players to escape the lava in case they fall on the lava. After use, the firepower will be rechagred for 10-20 seconds, so it will prevent lava camping, but not nerf the pyro kit too hard that it will be useless,

Red dye: ready to use firepower
Greed or yellow dye: firepower still in use
Gray dye: firepower still recharging
Note: the fire when the player attack will not have a cooldown.
Also, add a command that lets you see the major updates so the players will know what ois implemented in the server

And why not give some ranked players some new lobby items? Some interesting ones so they wont feel like they wasted money on the ranks?

"So they won't feel like they wasted money on the ranks?" I feel like this idea would make me feel like I wasted money on the rank, at least in MicroBattles' case. I still would be glad I bought it on TSW and other servers though.

How bout theirs different time for every rank thing like diamond is 5 or something and emerald its 10 or something ._. ok bye

sort of agree with jam as well, for each rank, it should get better as you pay more for a better rank and its cosmetics.
i agree with this idea but maybe for gold, youre invulnerable for 10 seconds, diamond is 15 seconds and emerald 20?

this would be bad though as MB does lag a lot and ranked players would have more time

That is a very good idea in my opinion.

thats jut a small problem. When the game lags, i see that some players whenfighting someone, gets attacked and cant dodge it when lagging. So... maybe when the ranked player is lagging, someone will attack gim/her

if one person is lagging, most likely everyone else is....

i dont think they need more lobby items they already get

*The full set of colour changing rainbow armour
*Every pet
*They can name there pet
*they can fly
*there chat colour is different
*they have every walking particle
*theres achievements that only premium players can get (not really for the lobby..but still)
*they can make a crew even when there not on lvl 120
*they have all the magic staff effects

list goes on but im lazy so..

Why not add more so some people will want to buy the ranks?
Like:
Unique items for waiting lobby
Random items like
Rocket launcher(bow) that does no damage to the builds, but adds an explosion and a knockback to players
New ranks only staff items
More buffs for every kits
Throwable snowball that summons lightning or mobs?
More stuff on wardrobe?

this is alot of work for vertx cause it seems like coding isnt simple at all there could be problems where the pyro doesnt have it at all and/or they dont have their cool downs. It could even make the server much more laggy then it is now.
And vertx already made his final call on the lava https://brokenlens.xyz/forums/threads/lava-camping-in-microbattles.25124/ in this thread here.
And its not like lava camping isnt a problem anymore currently since pyros are still being berated and threatened for it now people are threating to ban them if they even swim in lava where the land touches it. Bc its so called "Lava camping" as well, when they are hit into it and cant get out bc people are constantly attacking them.

Probably worth the try to fix it? Right?

Vertx can test it if it causes lag or not

What if the ranked players knew its not bannable? Then go straight back to lavacamping?

Many people currently are threatning and berateing pyros right now targeting them too if they had the chance so im sure its not likely and said in the thread vertx has other priorites much higher than lava camping right now.
