player_teams:

while (1)
{
for (local.playtm=1;local.playtm <= $player.size;local.playtm++)
{
if (($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "axis") && ($player[local.playtm].dead == 0))
$player[local.playtm] german
$player[local.playtm] threatbias 1000

if (($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "allies") && ($player[local.playtm].dead == 0))
$player[local.playtm] american
$player[local.playtm] threatbias 1000

if (($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "spectator") || ($player[local.playtm].dead == 1))
$player[local.playtm] threatbias ignoreme
}
waitframe
}
end

something like this, using the dead command - related to the player.

Called when the player is dead.

how can i use it right

I just occured to me are you playing this as a Team deathmatch or free for all ? There are 4 values for dmteam , spectator , freeforall , allies and axis . This won't work if you run it in free for all mode . Make sure you play it as a team deathmatch or obj not sure about roundbased I don't play that .

ok, will do
only Team Deathmatch!

last post
how check if $player[local.playtm] is dead?

this is in g_allclasses.html:

Player (player) -> Sentient -> Animate -> Entity -> SimpleEntity -> Listener -> Class

dead

Called when the player is dead.

but how is it used ? it calls ....

cmon

if dreams can get scripted, this shouldn be so difficult

thanx

Command: waitTill
Syntax: waitTill ( String eventName )
Example: $vip_player waitTill death

Description: Wait until event of type eventName.

where can i find more eventNames ?
.. spawn is an eventName too ?

$player[local.playtm] waitTill death

this stops the thread until that 1 player dies

$player[local.playtm] waitTill spawn

don't think you can do that I think it only applies to the level

You know my browser keeps poping up an error 550 cig files/cig files/????.jpg folder not found

Well I tried your map it must be because it is a spearhead map that it does not work . 1 more reason I don't do spearhead .

Cigs · Post by **Cigs** » Wed Jun 09, 2004 8:56 pm

well, ok
i leave it like this then.

Code: Select all

player_teams:

while(1) 
{ 
for (local.playtm=1;local.playtm <= $player.size;local.playtm++) 
{ 
if ($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "axis") 
	$player[local.playtm] german 
	$player[local.playtm] threatbias 1000 

if ($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "allies") 
	$player[local.playtm] american 
	$player[local.playtm] threatbias 1000 

if ($player[local.playtm].dmteam == "spectator") 
	$player[local.playtm] threatbias ignoreme 

if ($player[local.playtm].health == 0) 
   {
   $player[local.playtm] threatbias ignoreme 
   wait 15 // :/
   }
} 
waitframe 
} 
end

dog ignore the specific player for 15 secs. as you know ..IF there has to be waited for an amount off seconds before you can spawn on a server it will also be 15 seconds maximum.
if you can spawn immediatly ...well yea, he'll be ignoring a while. though... he'll start sniffing again :p

and euhm,...

what you said about the Cigs files error, damn, im shocked aswell! I will not use that ftp for use of attaching files or pictures on the forum!(s)

ty for help B

Cigs · Post by **Cigs** » Tue Jun 15, 2004 4:46 pm

i made a pk3 to test the map, seems anyone who kills a dog gets disconnected (not for unknown reason!) & server crashes (one time it didn't, but as soon as the admin killed a dog, it crashed). the models/fx/dogsounds.tik
is cache in alliesaxisdogs_precache.scr & is in the pk3. every file that was in maps/dm is also in that dir in the pk3.

how did it get fixed spawning in stock maps, i mean, how can i fix it here

Cigs · Post by **Cigs** » Tue Jun 15, 2004 6:27 pm

pk3 works fine, but on server it crashes!

here it is: alliesaxisdogs.pk3

bdbodger · Post by **bdbodger** » Tue Jun 15, 2004 10:23 pm

That is a bug in the dog_killed.scr copy this and make a anim/dog_killed.scr

// dog_killed.scr

// Location values:
// -2 false positive: should return a miss
// -1 General
// 0 head
// 1 helmet
// 2 neck
// 3 upper torso

// 7 right upper arm
// 8 left upper arm
// 9 right upper leg
// 10 left upper leg
// 11 right lower arm
// 12 left lower arm
// 13 right lower leg
// 14 left lower leg
// 15 right hand
// 16 left hand
// 17 right foot
// 18 left foot

local.yaw = self GetLocalYawFromVector self.fact.direction
self.blendtime = 0.3

switch(self.fact.location)
{
// headshot
case 0: // head
case 1: // helmet (head)
case 2: // neck
// println "headshot"

anim/dog_killed.scr in pk3
exec anim/dog_killed.scr in allieasaxisdogs.scr

server still crashes

keep in mind: i don't use any of you sript accept for dog_killed.scr now & your player_teams thread!
SHOULD I change everything to eventually spawn my dogs just like your xdmdogs2.pk3 does ??

bdbodger · Post by **bdbodger** » Wed Jun 16, 2004 1:59 pm

you don't exec anim/dog_killed.scr you just have to have it in the anim directory

Cigs · Post by **Cigs** » Wed Jun 16, 2004 3:35 pm

still cannot kill dogs on server, crash

alliesaxisdogs.pk3

Cigs · Post by **Cigs** » Thu Jun 17, 2004 2:11 am

Forget alliesaxisdogs.pk3, unless you know what's up
I made a NEW MAP WITH YOUR global/dmdog.scr. instead, you're more familiar with. I did this real nice and im sure everything is in order!! (exec global/dmdog.scr in script, ...::dogspawn ..., anim/dog_killed.scr in anim dir, cache models/fx/dogsounds.tik in *_precache.scr + in correct dir)

Everything works, up to crash again

...

here's the NEW MAP: dmdogsmap.pk3

WORKS - *when dir/files in mohaa/mainta dir*
CRASH - *once dir/files in pk3*
I MUST BE DOING SOMETHING WRONG

.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Spawn an entity ? (randomly) (dog: ai_german_hund_dog-real)
