I tried to make my player start on one of my SP levels with a gun but I dont know how to code this
could anyone tell me?

i am new to mapping so I dont know that much
any help would be appreciated

You need a .scr file for your map. Make a .txt file and name it the exact same name as your map. Put it in the main>maps folder. Then put this code into the .txt file and save.

Code: Select all

main:

level waittill prespawn
level waittill spawn

thread giveGuns

end

giveGuns:

$player item weapons/colt45.tik
$player item weapons/thompsonsmg.tik

$player ammo pistol 1000
$player ammo smg 1000

end

valid weapons are...

• colt45
  p38
  m1garand
  kar98
  thompsonsmg
  mp40
  bar
  mp44
  bazooka
  panzerschreck
  shotgun

and ammos

• pistol
  rifle
  smg
  mg
  heavy

In pak0 look at global/loadout.scr .

$player useweaponclass smg

"Useweaponclass" is the weapon the player starts with.

In Lizardkid's example it would look like this, if you want the thompson.

Code: Select all

main: 

level waittill prespawn 
level waittill spawn 

thread giveGuns 

end 

giveGuns: 

$player item weapons/colt45.tik 
$player item weapons/thompsonsmg.tik 

$player ammo pistol 1000 
$player ammo smg 1000 

$player useweaponclass smg

end 

The use weapon class names are:

smg
rifle
pistol
mg

The player must have the item before it can be used.
