Gang Garrison 2 is a TF2 Demake by MedO, mrfredman, and Synnah. Sharing it's roots from the parent game, Gang Garrison 2 is a fast-paced side-scrolling team-based shooter, with many opportunities for all classes to excel. RE: Gang Garrison 2 Making a lateral jump, it appears that this game is not only open sauce, but it is made with Game Maker 7 - A program I am familiar with. If people so desired, I could make a drastically haxed version just for our amusement. A modification to Gang Garrison 2. I agree to receive these communications from SourceForge.net. I understand that I can withdraw my consent at anytime.
When you find a problem with the game, it is understandable that you want to tell us about the problem as quickly as possible.However, please make sure that you actually include enough information for us to understand the problem and to figure out whatexactly went wrong:
- Describe what happened in detail. For example, 'The game crashed' doesn't tell us much. 'The game froze and Windows showed an 'application not responding' screen' gives us a much better idea of what happened and can help us narrow down the possible causes. Likewise, 'someone was shooting through walls' is a lot less helpful than 'A blue pyro was shooting flares through the red spawn doors on the first stage of cp_dirtbowl'.
- Please copypaste the text of all error messages that you encounter
- Screenshots or GIFs of the issue are often invaluable
Game Maker
Gang Garrison 2 is built with Game Maker 8.0 Pro, so you will need that for most development tasks. Newer versions of Game Maker will unfortunately not work at this time, since they introduced incompatible changes. The 'lite' / free version of Game Maker 8 is also not sufficient.
Git Setup
This repository requires you to have
core.autocrlf
set to false
, so make sure you do this when you first clone it:Otherwise, you'll screw up the line endings.
GmkSplitter
The source code as committed to git is in the
Source/gg2
directory. It is stored in 'split' form. To reassemble the source code into a .gmk file, you'll need MedO's GmkSplitter, and to run gmksplit gg2 gg2.gmk
, or gmksplit gg2 gg2.gmk
to split the .gmk file into the format stored in git. If you have gmksplit.exe in your PATH or your Source
directory, there are handy gg2GmkToGit
and gg2GitToGmk
convenience scripts that will delete the output file if it already exists and do the splitting/reassembling for you.Readme
If you add to the settings or change the gameplay, it is a good idea to update

.Coding Style
GG2 follows the following coding style:
Semicolons are always required at the ends of statements.
Parens are always required around conditionals [and their sister blocks: with(), switch(), and repeat()].
Spacing between parens, if, and conditionals is so inconsistent in the codebase that we don't have a standard for it. Go with what looks good. Same with operations, go with what makes the expression easily readable. However, it 'should' always be symmetrical.
It is illegal for you to distribute copyrighted files without permission. Lagu rohani selalu mencintaimu jason aldean.
Unless there's a good reason not to, space out the set statement sides from eachother.
When crossing order-of-operations boundries without parens, usually space the later operation away from the earlier operation. However, depending on the arithmetic being performed, a different spacing may be appropriate.
Block braces should be on a new line and indentation is four spaces.
You may skip using braces on single-line statements under certain situations.
You may NOT skip braces on conditions with other conditions inside of them.
You may skip braces with VERY simple series-es of single blocks, but not ones with multiple children blocks.
Gang Garrison 2 Mods
Don't indent switch blocks; but do indent case blocks.
Always use english versions of boolean operators. The symbol versions play well with neither gmksplit nor GM's build in code editor.
Gang Garrison 2 Servers
Use newlines to seperate logically distinct segments of code.
Boolean expressions should always be encased in parentheses.
Variable names should start with a lowercase letter, with subsequent words capitalized (intercapping). Shorthand words in non-state or local algorithm variables (such as adhoc logic variables) can fuzz this rule a little, and so can variables which pretend to be part of a GM variable family, but there's a limit.
Object names should always start with a capital letter and be intercapped after that.
Sprite names should, when applicable, be the name of their associate object with a capital S 'kind' suffix. Otherwise, they still need the S, unless they have an exceptional reason not to.
Script names should start with a lowercase letter and be intercapped after that, unless they're pretending to be like GM's built-in functions.
Constants are always all capital letters, with underscores to separate words.

Read these two stories back to back. It appears to me that before city governments spend millions more preparing for a Mumbai-style attack, they could just relax their concealed carry laws and permit legally certificated citizens to carry darn-near anywhere. I believe this would be a very simple, effective and cheap strategy to help prevent something like this from happening in the US. (It's worth noting that it's almost impossible for an ordinary citizen to obtain a gun in India!) It's also the absolute last thing I expect any city to embrace.

U.S. Cities Brace for Mumbai-Style Attack
Thursday, December 11, 2008 5:51 PM
By: David A. Patten
U.S. cities are racing to fix security vulnerabilities revealed by the devastating terror attacks in Mumbai, and many hotels remain “sitting ducks,” experts tell Newsmax.
Security personnel around the country are intensively reviewing what happened to Mumbai to learn more about terrorists’ shifting tactics, according to Fred Burton, vice president of counter-terrorism at Stratfor, a private intelligence firm located in Austin, Texas.
“The study has already begun,” Burton tells Newsmax. “I’m seeing that from a lot of our channels, and I am answering a lot of questions myself in that regard.”
Police are addressing Mumbai-like scenarios where teams of terrorists fan out and use small arms and explosives to lay siege to hotels, hospitals, and other major institutions, and take hostages.
“We look at these new kinds of tactics and the way they orchestrated this, and modify our approach,” Michael Downing, the head of the Los Angeles Police Department’s counter-terrorism unit, told the media. “We’re looking at it very closely.”
Close to 200 persons died in Mumbai in a series of coordinated attacks that terrorized the city for more than three days.
On Friday, New York City police conducted the first U.S. training exercise based on the Mumbai experience. “Our goal,” New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly told security officials, “is to find out as much as we can about terrorists worldwide, to understand who’s behind them, what motivates them, and what tactics they use.”
Homeland security expert Dr. James Jay Carafano of the Heritage Foundation tells Newsmax that the mass shootings at Columbine High School and Virginia Tech have increased police response to hostage situations and reports of gunmen on the loose. But that doesn’t mean U.S. authorities could respond effectively to multiple assaults.
“Nobody ever thinks in terms of a dozen heavily armed people working in coordination,” he says. “There are almost no exercises in preparing for that. And it’s an easy thing to pull off. You don’t really a whole lot of training. All you really need are a bunch of small arms, and people who aren’t stupid.”
Carafano adds: “It’s something to worry about because most police forces would be really overwhelmed. SWAT teams don’t really train for this.”
Burton agrees, telling Newsmax: “If you have that many target sets simultaneously occurring, you’ve got a very daunting task for any type of effective response.”
Burton points to the October 2002 Beltway sniper attacks that had some in the Nation’s Capital afraid to venture outside their homes for weeks.
“Think about the D.C. sniper case and the chaos that was caused, due to one two-person team,” Burton says. “Magnify that by say six to eight teams, and place them on the loose in any city in America. Most cities in America have only one SWAT team, so think about how much damage could be caused. It’s a fairly frightening scenario.”
It is believed that extensive planning and surveillance preceded the Mumbai attack. New York City police are asking all security forces, both public and private, to report any idle visitors or suspicious vehicles.
Although there has been no specific intelligence of a planned attack, warnings of a possible operation against the New York City subway system circulated shortly before the terrorist siege in Mumbai. Immediately after news of the Mumbai siege, New York police dispatched 150 officers in 75 police cars -- with lights flashing -- to major hotels across the city to provide additional security.
Other cities are responding to the Mumbai threat as well:
# In Boston, police have stepped up surveillance and are keeping an especially close eye on hotels.
# The Department of Homeland Security has warned hotels throughout the country to beef up security.
# Authorities at port cities are particularly concerned, given that the terrorists traveled to Mumbai by boat. “Our great vulnerability is the water,” Miami Police Chief John Timoney told USA Today.
# InterContinental Hotels says it has taken additional, unspecified security precautions in “high-risk markets” nationwide.
When the Los Angeles Times asked city Police Chief William J. Bratton the likelihood that city would face a Mumbai-style attack, he replied, “First off, we’re all surprised something has not happened since 9/11.”
Even if terrorists don’t launch a similar attack here, law enforcement officials are concerned about a “copycat” attack: Homegrown extremists trying to emulate the tactics paralyzed Mumbai.
“You have to look into the copycat effect, your Jihadist wanna-bes who pick up a couple of AK 47s, become a two-man team unto themselves, and want to see if they can pull off something like this,” Burton warns. “It would not necessarily have to be the scale of Mumbai.”
“Hotels are sitting ducks,” Burton adds. “If you look at hotels in certain countries, the vulnerability clearly exists. You’ll see some hotels doing a better job than others” to keep guests safe, he says.
“I don’t know if anyone is prepared to repel an attack on that scale,” John Serafini, co-owner of Elite Protection, a security firm that guards several high-profile Chicago hotels, told The Associated Press. “Even if a hotel has a fully armed staff, it is still a dangerous proposition to engage an attack like that.”
The nationwide security review triggered by Mumbai includes the U.S. Coast Guard, which would play a vital role in repelling terrorists before they could attack the soft underbelly of America’s cities.
Rear Admiral Thomas F. Atkin, who leads the Coast Guard unit responsible for stopping ship-borne terrorists, continually asks himself: “Can we do the mission with our current equipment? We need to evaluate it to determine what the right equipment is. Then we can train appropriately.”
Atkin tells Newsmax, “We don’t want to give the perception that everything is fine, that we don’t need to change. The Coast Guard is always changing to improve its mission capabilities.”
Stopping terrorists before they get loose in American cities is the right idea, Carnahan says.
“It really doesn’t do any good to say, ‘Oh my God, terrorists could do this.’ Well, terrorists could do a lot of things,” he says. “If we think like that, we’ll run around chasing our tails and we’ll live in a garrison state. The best way to combat this is to make sure attacks like this don’t happen in the first place.”

The grave danger of 'gun-free zones'
Posted: April 18, 2007
1:00 am Eastern
The murder of innocent victims is a disgrace, and our condolences go out to those who have lost loved ones in the shooting rampage at Virginia Tech.
More than one year before Monday's unprecedented shooting rampage at Virginia Tech, the state's General Assembly quashed a bill that would have given qualified college students and employees the right to carry handguns on campus. Could one legally armed citizen have made a difference at this tragic event?
We also need to ask the question: Do laws prohibiting firearms in certain places really prevent homicidal tragedies?
There is a striking paradox associated with mass murders. They are far more likely to occur in areas that have been designated as gun-free zones.
Worldwide, office buildings, hospitals, convenience stores, TV studios, chain restaurants and day-care centers have all been targets of homicidal maniacs. Mass murders have taken place in such places after they have been declared gun-free zones.
In 1999, John Lott and William Landes published a U.S. study of multiple shooting incidents. They showed that mass shootings occur less often in areas where responsible citizens may carry weapons.
Do mass shootings ever occur in police stations, shooting ranges or at gun shows? Mass murderers select soft targets for their acts of violence. Expecting a suicidal individual to honor a law prohibiting firearms is sheer utopian fantasy.
In Europe, 16 people were killed in a public school shooting in Germany in April 2002. Another two public shootings were the killing of 14 regional legislators in Zug, a Swiss Canton (September 2001) and the massacre of eight city council members in a Paris suburb in March 2002.
According to John R. Lott Jr., all three of these European killing sprees had one thing in common: They took place in gun-free zones. Firearms surely make it easier to kill people, but firearms also make it easier for people to defend themselves.
Declaring gun-free zones risks leaving potential victims defenseless.
In the U.S., thugs using firearms at elementary or secondary schools between 1997 and 2002 killed 32 students. The total includes gang fights, robberies, accidents and the so-called 'school shootings.' All these attacks took place in gun-free zones.
In Israel, however, teachers and parents serving as school aids are armed at all times on school grounds with semi-automatic weapons. Since this policy was adopted in the 1970s, attacks by gunmen at schools in Israel have ceased.
Government officials must be aware that if they create a gun-free zone, they are liable for any harm it causes. Why would those in authority rather see law-abiding, disarmed citizens die than risk armed citizens harming a criminal?
With lives lost in Germany and the United States in schools that are gun-free zones, and no attacks by armed gunmen in Israel since teachers and parents serving as school aids have been armed, why would we want any area declared a gun-free zone?
History and common sense prove that gun-free zones are dangerous.
