[Warning] Server crash.

I was on a server today in Al Basrah. I was a insurgent and got my hands on a British Engineer kit. So we went suirside bombers. Which means placing allot of C4's on a normal car and BOOM!
This time, I placed around 11 C4's on this bike, a guy went to two enemy apc's with that bike (which didnt look like a bike anymore cause it was all green because of the c4's) and he screamed ''BLOW!'' So I blew up the c4's and as soon as I clicked the ''boom'' button, the server went down and crashed.
This is a warning, I am not sure if this is why the server crashed, but I think it was.
Peace!

Interesting story, we had a time where we put 15 C4's on a bike.
But wouldn't this have to belong in Tales from the Front?

How can you place more than five C4s? Maybe that's what was causing the crash?

i remember that you could place loads of c4 in vbf2 if like 10 people worked together, the huge resultant explosion could make the server lag for like 30seconds

PR 0.91 Manual, page 18:
"A player can place up to 4 AP mines and 5 C4 packs or IEDs simultaneously."
So you had exceeded your maximum active C4 limit. Twice. And as you might know, when you toss item number
LIMIT+1, the first one you tossed earlier, disappears. So there was only 5 packs of C4 on the vehicle when you detonated it

When we used to stunt in Sir. you would get 20+ for each vehicle and we never had any server problems.

This didnt happen tho, The whole top of the bike was covered with C4's. You could just see 11 C4's covering the top of the bike. No C4's dissapeared....
