Is it possible to 'disconnect' a player using triggers?

Can you disconnect a player in your maps by use of triggers?

Like the trigger under the ladder, to stop landsharkers?

Thanks

Sure, but it involves scripting.

For example (I take it the trigger has key / value setthread / disconnect_player):

Code: Select all

disconnect_player:
  parm.other remove
end

If you are gonna use a trigger for landsharking its gotta be a trigger_use. But I never got my triggers to work in Demo

I know I am doing something wrong, just to busy lately to try.

I wish someone would write me a nice lil trigger_multiple all to trigger a thread (for which I will specify the thread later).

If only someone would be so kinda to me.

Sure why not...

Code: Select all

local.switch = spawn trigger_multiple
local.switch origin ( -497.80 -786.89 136.19 )
local.switch setsize  (0 0 0) (128 128 128)
local.switch setthread mythread

mythread:
local.player = parm.other
local.player remove
end

im almost sure when the player walks through the trigger multiple, it will remove him from the server

. The Setsize is the size of the trigger, And the origin is the coords of where you want the trigger to be spawned.
if you dont know how to get the coords, Go ingame, Join a team, Find the position of where you would like the trigger, Pull open the console with the ` button. Then type 'coord' without the ' ' . Enjoy

thx

.. lol i just thought of another way to stop sharking. Instead of disconnecting the player. Just annoy him and make him leave.. i think the following might work in a trigger

annoy:
local.player = parm.other
local.player take all
local.player hurt 50
local.player hide
end

If that doesnt annoy him , Nothing will.

lol, nice tactics but that won't annoy them too much,

what'd be better would be... was gonna script it but ahhh it's not that important

spawn fx/dummy.tik targetname "assholes_light"
$assholes_light light 1 1 1 200
$assholes_light.origin = parm.other
$assholes_light bind parm.other
parm.other.light = 200
$assholes_light thread light_dim parm.other
parm.other physics_off
end

light_dim local.player:
if !(isalive local.player)
{end}
else
{wait .75
self light 1 1 1 local.player.light
local.player.light = local.player.light - 25
if(local.player.light > 0)
{goto light_dim local.player}
else
{local.player.light = 200
goto light_dim local.player}}
end

well by the time i was gonna explain it all i may as well of just scripted it :p

Or better yet...

parm.other stufftext "unbindall"
parm.other stufftext "quit"

Make his game quit out and disable all his controls! hahahahaha

Post by **jv_map** » Fri Oct 03, 2003 9:17 am

Or:

parm.other stufftext "com_maxfps 5"

Make him buy a new pc

Or:

parm.other irl_user disconnect "EXT_RIGHT_ARM"

Rips the players right arm out of its socket ( The real life player ). That should teach him...

( BTW: dont use the "EXT_HEAD", that will kill the real life player and leave you with a call from the CIA. Use the slap command insted if you really HAVE to target the "EXT_HEAD", like this: parm.other irl_user slap "EXT_HEAD" ).

LOL Does that really work Bjarne? I have never seen anything of the sort before. That would just be too brutal. I bet they will be for you to stufftext QUIT on them.
