There is a rule against it, people loophold and put keypads there on purpose to slow the raiders down, it's common sense really.	catboy sven ツ Offline Adept Boarder Respected Zarp Contributor Posts: 7193 Thanks received: 1544 Karma: -45

4.2 Buttons & Keypads - Buttons and keypads must be clearly visible and should not be used as decorations but rather only be used for the activation of your contraptions. If they're not connected then they're invalid, however I guess this will be brought up in the Lead Team meeting this Saturday to ensure that this simply won't be allowed in general.

4.11 Entities - Do not store entities in inaccessible areas of the map. This includes storing entities inside world props. Entities placed outside of a building must not be vertically further from the ground than a plate1x8.mdl placed vertically. This excludes areas that are accessible through an exisiting building, ladder or a staircase.

Entities shouldn't be used as a building material. They should only be used for their intentional RP purpose, excluding metal detectors, which can be used freely as long as they don't break other building rules.

It isn't allowed. You should ask big man Roy next time

PS: This rule was added around the time when the metal detector was used abusively in the disco bases.

Alright, I will give my voice to this.

The keypads where CONNECTED to props you blew up. We did not just place a keypad down to obstruct player mobility, nor, according you where you said you needed to crouch/jump to get by, I can confirm you this is not true, for I have went through several times without needing to jump or crouch. Our keypads where connected to props. which you have failed to show in the image given. We where not intending to use the keypads to slow you down, but for props we could take cover behind.

You placed the keypads like that because you knew the props would get blown and then you have an advantage. Then, the keypads block you. You must be able to walk through with ease, not like a maze. They shouldn't block people in any way.

That doesn't matter and you would know this if you actually read what everyone else was talking about. If the keypad is making a obstacle then it is not allowed period. It is as simple as that and whoevers dupe it is they can easily move the keypads to avoid this issue anyways. Not a big problem but that's the ZARP community.

Lets just make keypads no collided by default, and if changed, warn them for changing the collidable state of a keypad/button	User1502 Offline User is blocked Posts: 4550 Thanks received: 821 Karma: 5

They are 100% entities anything that is not a prop that is spawned into the game is an entity.

Sounds to me like its pretty clear you weren't using those keypads to activate contraptions. They are not props to be used for cover thats what the game gives you actual props for. Please read the rules more carefully next time especially the section that contains directly to Keypads...
