All the help I can get?!

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Well I'm back too mapping and I have some new map coming out for example ff_dmmedic,ff_dmmedic2., kothmedic, koth_classic from quake one, ff_aggression (ctf), ff_dday (cp). only problem is I don't do .LUA and I'm asking for your help to help me get these maps done. Please If you can amke .LUA well Add me on Steam username [TALOS]DudeWheresMyMedic or subfocuss steam login name, Thank you for your help.

[Dr.Satan]

well honestly a lot of the .lua is already out there...just check out the official map's .lua files and take what you need. Generally you shouldn't have a problem unless your doing something no one has done.

Also your best bet is just to post your issues here and let everyone give you feedback.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

thanks, what I'm looking for is a lua that supports one cap for my koth map. I can add screen shots if you want, but there is red on one side and blue other and in middle there is a hill with a cap point on top. The 2 team will fight over this point each cap will give the team 100 points and every 20 seconds they hold it they will gain 10 more points, or something like that.

[Dr.Satan]

I might be wrong...but it'll probably be easier if you just put 2 brushes there (one for color a and one for b)...then just use the base_ctf code in your .lua and you should be fine.

Edit: Also I went ahead and moved your other thread here.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Thank you, I'll try that right away.

[Crazycarl]

Do they need to keep touching the cap to score? Because that's very much like ff_attrition. I'd start by copying the lua from that map and implementing it.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Thanks, Carl but that wasn't what I was looking for I tried it but it didn't work. Right now I'm using the LUA from cz2 cp map, the map work fine but it shows theirs 5 cp on map.

[Crazycarl]

OK, Put this in, after the includes. I think this will take care of it.

-- command points
CP_COUNT = 1

command_points = {
		[1] = { cp_number = 1, defending_team = Team.kUnassigned, cap_requirement = { [TEAM1] = 1000, [TEAM2] = 1000 }, cap_status = { [TEAM1] = 0, [TEAM2] = 0 }, cap_speed = { [TEAM1] = 0, [TEAM2] = 0 }, next_cap_zone_timer = { [TEAM1] = 0, [TEAM2] = 0 }, delay_before_retouch = { [TEAM1] = 4.0, [TEAM2] = 4.0 }, touching_players = { [TEAM1] = Collection(), [TEAM2] = Collection() }, former_touching_players = { [TEAM1] = Collection(), [TEAM2] = Collection() }, point_value = { [TEAM1] = 10, [TEAM2] = 10 }, score_timer_interval = { [TEAM1] = 20, [TEAM2] = 20 }, hudstatusicon = "hud_cp_1.vtf", hudposx =   0, hudposy = 56, hudalign = 4, hudwidth = 16, hudheight = 16 },
}
-- complete control
ENABLE_COMPLETE_CONTROL_POINTS = true
ENABLE_COMPLETE_CONTROL_RESET = false
ENABLE_COMPLETE_CONTROL_RESPAWN = false

--Change anything below to customize the map, or you can just leave it out.

-- scoring
POINTS_FOR_COMPLETE_CONTROL = 100
CC_DESTROY_POINTS = 15


-- zones
CAP_ZONE_TIMER_INTERVAL = 0.2
CAP_ZONE_NOTOUCH_SPEED = 10


-- flags
ENABLE_FLAGS = false
FLAG_CARRIER_SPEED = 0.75
FLAG_RETURN_TIME = 0


-- teleporting
ENABLE_CC_TELEPORTERS = true
ENABLE_CP_TELEPORTERS = true


-- command center
ENABLE_CC = false

[Dr.Satan]

lol carl beat me to it...but yeah, that looks like the right stuff!

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Love you guy, No homo, LoL. I'll test that right away, sorrry it took me sometime to check forum but go tit now. Thanks you to for your help, I'll let you know when its on TALOS server.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Is there anything i need to rename in map? like trigger for cap point? right now its not working, the cap point is unable to be caught.

[Dr.Satan]

w/out decompiling cz2....I think (may be wrong) that you should name the command point "cp_cp1"

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Thanks, I'm Also working on a map from Quake One, Koth3, and I was wanting to ask if there is a trigger or something that can somehow give you quad damage or maybe unlimited ammo like dm_squeek when someone is holding the top point.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Damn you guys are great, LoL. My KothMedic2 map works now and will be uploaded to TALOS server. Thanks Dr.Satan and Crazycarl map works.

[Crazycarl]

I just typed all this shit up, it should tell you every entity name referenced by the CZ2 lua.

yes, there is...there's a map out there by A1win that has something exactly like that but I will have to grab the info for you tomorrow...or later tonight maybe.

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Thanks Dr.Satan no rush, heading to bed anyway, night.

[Dr.Satan]

Ok...I didn't have time to test this, but this should be what your looking for:

Place this in your maps .lua
http://privatepaste.com/e61RxYBu3Y

Then on the top of the hill or whatever area you want, you just have to create a new trigger and name it "quadarea"

This should give them quad and resupply them periodically. But I might have missed something too (it's really early still)

[DudeWheresMyMedic]

Thanks Dr. Satan, I've added that to the .LUA and i'll test it when my friend chaunbot comes on later to night, or if i find someone else that wants to see it.
