Trigger detect pass

[Almogaver]

I need make a trigger that detects the step of the axis as how The Hunt at the allieds

you sure didn't search at all...

Create a trigger_once with a key of setthread and a value of axis_arrived.

Now, in your mapscript, call the following thread. Copy and paste the thread into your mapscript.

Code: Select all

axis_arrived:

local.player = parm.other
if(local.player.dmteam == "axis")
{
iprintlnbold "The Axis have breached the perimeter!"
}

end

This uses the same thing as the Allied trigger on the Hunt. You can call the thread what you want, but I just used axis_arrived as an example.

Nah, nah, nah, what if the first player to enter the trigger is in allies?

[MPowell1944]

Then nothing happens. It only reacts to Axis, which is what you want.

trigger_once can get activated many times? (i never used them)

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

its called a trigger_once for a reason

[Rookie One.pl]

Exactly, Fungus.

Powell, the trigger will execute once, no matter what player enters it.

Okay then just change to a trig multiple and make your script like this:

Code: Select all

axis_arrived:
if (level.axisbreached != 1 )
level.axisbreached = 1
local.player = parm.other
if(local.player.dmteam == "axis")
{
iprintlnbold "The Axis have breached the perimeter!"
}

end

Okay then just change to a trig multiple and make your script like this:

Code: Select all

axis_arrived:
if (level.axisbreached != 1 )
level.axisbreached = 1
local.player = parm.other
if(local.player.dmteam == "axis")
{
iprintlnbold "The Axis have breached the perimeter!"
}

end

Wrong, if the trigger can be activated only once, any player will trigger it as the trigger itself doesn,t check the dmteam of the player. So i guess a trigger_multiple should be used with this code:

Code: Select all

axis_arrived:
if(level.axisbreached != 1 )
{
    local.player = parm.other
    if(local.player.dmteam == "axis")
    {
        level.axisbreached = 1
        iprintlnbold "The Axis have breached the perimeter!"
    }
}
end

This way, any player triggers it but level.axisbreached is set only when the first axis triggers it, the subsequent triggering has no effect.
