How many captures are needed in a CTF game to win.
Would that be possible to add in a patch?
I don't think so. The way the scripts work for CTF won't allow for a different number to be added for the ammount of times a flag has to be captured. You have to set that value manualy in the script itself. The way it works is each time the flag is captured, it destroys a building for that team. Such as if Nod captures the flag, a GDI building is destroyed. You don't hear that the building got destroyed until the flag has been captured the ammount of times set into the script. It is sort of complicated to explain, but I don't believe a feature can be set to change the value of the script at this time.
If you want to try, talk to Dante about it. He wrote the scripts. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

So, since every time you capture a flag, its like destroying a building. What if on game options when you host you take off the option where whenever you destroy all buildings you win the game, what happends when you take it off do you just keep playing that CTF game forever?

After the flags are captured the set number of times, all the buildings are destroyed. You hear EVA say the buildings are destroyed, but since Buildings Destroyed Ends Game is set off, the game continues on like nothing happened. However, the way I have HON_CTF setup, when that happenes, that team loses the Barracks/HON as well as the Power Plants. So, that team is left with nothing but basic characters and the spawn weapons. In other words, yes, the game would continue on forever until the time limit runs out.

There is a way to make the number of flag captures configurable as a server variable. Its a little complex to explain but if someone wants to know how, look in the readme.txt of the scripts.dll and get my contact details then contact me.

could you KILL the elevators, and add some ladders instead, that map lagged all to hell with them...
just a suggestion, and take out any unneccessary dsapo objects as well, i know alot of them are part of the interior, but i did see some added ones ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

I am already fixing the elevators. I'm replacing them with staircases that Sgt. May made. Check it out he re.
As for the added DSAPO objects, I only added the crates by where the GDI flag is (or used to be for me). That is becasue a little bit of the outside terrain leaks into the walls there, and I couldn't shift the HON over more to remove it. It would cause a crack to appear on the other side. So, the only way I could fix that was with the crates. The other thing I added was the Apache on the roof. I'm changing that to be totally undestroyable, so you cant score points off of it.

Thats a quite crude CTF.
