   1. How do i script an mg42 into a mapscript

   2. How do i spawn say, a usable jeep in a map

   3. How do i set up teleport points on a map

   4. How do i spawn a stationary bot to guard a building and shoot on sight?

   5. How do i fix this script to allow people to go into and out of the range area?

Hi again m8y ...

   

   1. Download the M5L1B pk3 from the Mod Files section, i added a firing MG42 to that, it will show you how to spawn one

   

   2. If you look also in the Mod Files section youll find a drivable vehicle script adapted by Kev from Scorpio Midgets code

   

   3. Theres some teleport code here in the forums ( search button )

   

   4. You cant spawn bots in Mohaa that are active - it crashes the server, you can disable their AI but that means they stand around like dummies, maybe adapt the code from Ric-hards script in other thread for what you need

   

   5. hmmm hold on ...

   

   // Place after level waittill spawn eg ..

   

   

   level waittill spawn
   
   $door_2 unlock
   $door_3 unlock
   $door_4a unlock
   $door_5a unlock
   $door_6a unlock
   $door_7a unlock
   $door_8a unlock
   $exit_door unlock // better test this one is safe to have unlocked ... yah its safe 
   $clip_2 delete
   end
   

   

   

   Its always worth looking through the original SP scripts to see if theres any good information or usable things you might want to keep, i usually copy the BSP from PAK5.PK3 to my desktop and convert it to a .MAP with MohBSPtoMohMAP and use MohRadiant to look through the map for usable extras/targetnames etc

   

   Youll probs need to spawn a crate or something for them to get to the original map start area as it has a wooden fence that you cant seem to get back over

   

   There are triggers in the map you may need to disable/remove (some testing ingame for ya :P)

   

   I cant see any clips blocking the player in Radiant from getting through the gap to the Range - ill keep looking to see if there is something there that can be removed (after ive had a good sleep :P)

   

   have fun

[masterG]

thanks that's great info. How do i spawn a crate by the way......

[Cobra {sfx}]

Same as you spawn a tank or an MG42 etc, look in PAk0.pk3 at the models, and change the dir/tik name to the one you want in your script.

   

   Maybe time to read thru the scripting tips?

[masterG]

ya probably, thanks for everything

[masterG]

can't get kevin's drivables to download from your mod section, think it's  a broken link...

[masterG]

hey why does the sky start fritzing on some converted maps? any way to stop that?

[Cobra {sfx}]

No idea what fritzing means m8y but you should use the original scripts settings for farplane etc if you have problems

Try pming him - offsite linking is out of my control

   

   ps ... the Jeep has no wheel animations in AA so it just kinda slides around
