@Noob: Sorry, I forgot ;(. If I end up changing anything else on this, I'll throw in the monkey.

I actually added this intentionally. Originally we were having problems where too much action was happening off the map. Instead of adding a wall around the map (which would mean actually giving them collision detection) we decided to have them ignore people outside. It also drains your health to be out there, to keep anyone from hiding.
@Boggy: Stijn is correct, it was coded in Game Maker.
@Everyone else: Thanks =D
Oh, and @WR: Sure, feel free to post anywhere. But mention to send any feedback to a@foxmage.com, if possible. And maps are randomly chosen from a list, but there's a setting to make it cycle through them.
EDIT: I sill don't know if the code that makes them help eachother does much. I ran a whole bunch of high-speed tests where only one side had that enabled, and the side with it won only 51-60. That's not a big difference.
