editing V2 :(

kdja · Post by **kdja** » Wed Jul 17, 2002 8:00 am

Im trying to change the 2 OBJ in V2 to 1.
if one is blown game ends.
i was asked to check it out as a mate thought it would create a completley diffeent set of tactics if only 1 needed to blow.
i added this line to the spawn and prespawn script
level.targets_to_destroy = 1

And it still took the 2.
i can find no reference to it having to be 2 objs.
but both bombs due to their nature are well scripted.
anyone any ideas??

from your modified obj_team2.scr

remove

level.targets_to_destroy = 1
this does nothing if the script doesn't check for it

comment out the following lines

// $ctrlroom_explode thread global/obj_dm.scr::bomb_thinker
(this may not need to be done ?, but may remove the bomb etc)

// while (local.bomb2.exploded != 1)
// wait .1
this waits for the ctrlroom bomb, not needed

change these lines to this

allies_win_bomb local.bomb1: // local.bomb2:

remove reference to local.bomb2 ie $ctrlroom_explode

thread allies_win_bomb $v2_explode // $ctrlroom_explode

this will remove the dependence of destroying the v2 THEN the ctrl room

You only have to destroy the V2

You could of course , just delete those things commented out, but then you couldn't repair the script

or just copy this

main:

setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext1" "- Destroy the Control"
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext2" "Room"

setcvar "g_obj_axistext1" "- Defend the Control"
setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" " Room and the V2"

let me know if that works, as it is untested, just what i deduced from the script, as i wrote the post.....

It did work ,it made V2 a round winning obj but the ctrl toom was disabled.
is there an IF statement in scripting land?

if there was it could be modified to set obj for both allies and axis whixh is my masterplan:)

Yes there is an IF statement, please explain the question?

kdja · Post by **kdja** » Fri Jul 19, 2002 3:23 pm

hmm IE IF Allies blow either bombs round ends .

then that command could be used for a AXIS/ALLIES OBJ level where th eAxis and ALLIES have to blow somfin or do somfin other than Axis killing everyone.

original script (partial obj_team2.scr)
----------
allies_win_bomb local.bomb1 local.bomb2:

while (local.bomb1.exploded != 1)
wait .1
while (local.bomb2.exploded != 1)
wait .1

teamwin allies
end
----------

modified script (partial obj_team2.scr)
----------
allies_win_bomb local.bomb1 local.bomb2:

while (local.bomb1.exploded != 1 && local.bomb2.exploded != 1)
wait .1

teamwin allies
end

I saw this question a long time ago, and i thought i would just make an Axis_obj_dm.scr, which was a carbon copy of the original, but all the scenarios, were reversed. ie axis plant the bomb, allies defuse it.

Just call global/obj_dm.scr::bombthinker for allies bomb/axis defuse

and
call global/axis_obj_dm.scr::bombthinker for axis bomb/ allies defuse
(i think scorpiomidget used numbers >100 for axis)
seemed to work ok, but...........

Unfortunately it went to hdrive heaven.........

would be easy enough to do again.....sort of a bomb the base map

Just worked out how to do killareas
create trigger_multiple set targetname deathzone( or something more descriptive)
move it to where you want the killarea to reside. size it.....
on the bomb add a [key] $killarea [value] deathzone (note the $ sign)
when the bomb blows, anyone in the deathzone will die........from an obj_dm.scr orientated map.
