CTF Event

kenyonandelliot · #1 04-27-2003, 11:32 PM

Anyone know how to script a CTF event like the flags and how to keep the points straight? And like when you get hit you lose the flag?

It's policy to not ask for scripts, make your own and we'll be happy to help you with it.

It's basically just server. flags and if (playerhit) but you gotta at least try the script yourself.

It is if the event spans over several levels like I was thinking =p

Very few pw's use gmaps. and even fewer understand them. That is not a fair suggestion.

Most of the main playerworlds use gmaps. PW's who dont have anyone to help construct a gmap or explain it to them dont have one to use.Maloria doesnt have a gmap. Someone should help them.

Give them a little invisible -ctfsystem npc and have it store the events instead

You will need multiple NPCs (ofcourse) for the flag etc.

First, you might need two stakes and if the guild (?) of the player is Red Team or Blue Team and he has the flag
(streqauls(#s(server.ctfowner),#a)){
his team get's a point.
You'll also need a sort of system npc, with
if (playerhurt){
and then the flag gets back at it's original place (?), setstring server.ctfowner,none.
then, the flag.
if the player touches the flag, setstring server.ctfowner,#a.
This hopefully helps you.
Oh and don't use this with your current CTF level ;P

I have a question. Why are you making a CTF, when you don't know how to make the NPCs or levels? :x

GoZelda · #13 05-01-2003, 05:46 PM

Oh yes iv've heard of a NPCserver but i only know addweapon and removeweapon and don't exactly know how they work :x

HoudiniMan · #14 05-01-2003, 10:31 PM

newfeatures.txt's will help you a lot if you read them

GoZelda · #15 05-02-2003, 04:49 PM

I haven't seen anything but then i didn't look for NPCserver commands, but i did browse trough for my commands file...
Is it 2001 or 2002?
