hey

my problem is ... i have build a new map and new settings and new graphics (tileset, shipset, c graphics) ... but i dont have the time to create an own server ... i also live in europe so that will make the thing impossible with ping and connection

my game that i did create is like a soldierwar ... there are 4 types soldiers and 4 types aliens in a city ... i used the full map to create a city
and teaming is a must because everybody got one live per round and it looks like the counter strike settings (2 teams, capture the hostile hq, one live per round) missiongoal is to kill all enemies or to capture the hostile ship each team do spawn in their ship ... the ships (soldiers) are well balanced in their settings and there is no super power or something like this ... its more a strategy game than an action game ... i tried to make it looklike the groundbattles like in the game x-com: ufo defense if anyone knows this old good game


my actual problems were the commands:

how to set ship 1-4 to freq 1 and ship 5-8 to set on freq 2

how to set ship 1-4 spawning in this area and ship 5-8 in this area

how to give any player just one live and turns him in the spec mode after he get killed freq 0

so if u boys of tw want to risk a look and trying it out u can have it for free ... i will send a map a lvz and the server.cfg for settings

u will need to create a command or a bot for the 3 imporatant things:
ships 1-4 to freq 1 and ships 5-8 to freq 2 ...

ships 1-4 (soldiers) will spawn in their ship (close to bottom right) and ships 5-8 (aliens) will spawn in their ship (close to left roof)

any player got one live per round and the game will end if one team get eliminated



p.s. i would keep working on it but there are some other things to do that i cant ignore

It sounds like an okay map. Talk to 2dragons or Wingzero, both control TWDEV. If it's good then they might put it up.

For setting ships for different freq, I think a bot has to control it like in DSB but i'm not sure on that. For setting a warp co-ords for different freq again a bot will most likely have to control it. For giving players 1 life you can do that like in ER hosted events, remove players with 1 death.

The problem with having the bot warping people and removing people is that it starts to lag and will not work properly. examples Fallout and boomball. Thats why theres a player limit.

Sounds Good

I'll talk to a couple of my friends see if they would like to start up there zone again. I doubt that will happen thou.
I'm pretty sure what kolar said is right. You have to have a bot to do that.
-If you need help with da bot pm me on the game ill see what i can do.

In your server.cfg, this option:
Quote:
[Misc]
MaxLossesToPlay=1


It isn't frequency specific, so if anyone on any freq dies once, they are forced into spectator mode.

how to set ship 1-4 to freq 1 and ship 5-8 to set on freq 2

Again in your server.cfg, this option:

Quote:
[Misc]
FrequencyShipTypes=1

Quote:
how to set ship 1-4 spawning in this area and ship 5-8 in this area

Also in your server.cfg
Quote:
[Spawn]
Team0-X= <-- Freq 0 X coordinate
Team0-Y= <-- Freq 0 Y coordinate
Team0-Radius= <-- Freq 0 Spawn Radius
Team1-X= <-- Freq 1 X coordinate
Team1-Y= <-- Freq 1 Y coordinate
Team1-Radius= <-- Freq 1 Spawn Radius

If the spawn section isn't in your server.cfg, add this at the bottom, and change it to fit your needs, as shown above:

Quote:
[Spawn]
Team0-X=
Team0-Y=
Team0-Radius=
Team1-X=
Team1-Y=
Team1-Radius=
Team2-X=
Team2-Y=
Team2-Radius=
Team3-X=
Team3-Y=
Team3-Radius=

Hope that helps..

Ice Storm I think he was getting at making it a TW hosted event :\.

[IceStorm]

I have a bot for what you need. But i need your email..
?message me on the game or pm me on here. So we could talk about your plans. Im helping someone start up there zone right now and we could use it.
