Theres always Oblivion's kick ass time machine script.
Oblivion165 wrote on Sun, 15 July 2007 00:08 | I always wanted to make a time travel script. One that records everything that has health to 10 slots.
Every minute it takes a snapshot of all the health/buildings/XYZ and put it in a slot of 10.
Slot1: 1:00 minutes in
Slot2: 2:00 minutes in
...
Slot10: 10:00 minutes in
Then when it goes past 10 minutes in it goes back to slot 1:
Slot1: 11:00 minutes in
Then when a time beacon is triggered it will got back 5 minutes or something and everything will be warped back to that slot's state.

Should it only run once or cancel if someone leaves the zone?

He wants it to play the once when the mission starts, like zunnie's, but if you are able to make an option where it could play more then once, then that be cool.
Have a value added like repeat 0 for no, 1 for yes.

Would you like it to reset when a player enters the zone, or continue going until it has finished, and then it can be triggered again?

This one actually seems easier then the swimming script I am currently working on, well at least until you get to the part where a person has quit the game or a building has been destroyed. Besides that it would be easy to reset the player credits, health position, ect. And recreate vehicle that were on the map at the time, and destroy ones that weren't. You would have to have a script attached to every unit and vehicle on the map but by modding some temp presets it would be easy to do. The only hard part would be the flippen building controllers.

Wouldn't it be possible to create on map load a spare set of controllers, and move them into position if and when neccessary? Then destroy them all at the end if they wasn't neccessary?
I've never tried that approach, but I remember thinking about it before.

All I think that would do is make it so when they destroyed a building they would still be able to build. It would be easiest if you set the beacon to record all the stuff when it was placed, at set it all to that point once it is destroyed.

A script that I always wanted is something along the lines of a "Spawn object in presence of another object"
For example, lets say I have 2 AI bots with the script attached. One GDI, one Nod. Now I have an 2 objects that can be destroyed. Once one of the objects is destroyed it automatically spawns the other one (both ways, endlessly)
So lets say while the first object is on the map, the GDI bots would spawn. If the object was destroyed then the other object would spawn and while this object is on the map, the Nod AI bots would spawn instead.
Another example could be I that I have a weapon spawner, I want it to only spawn while a crate is on the map. However if this crate is destroyed, the weapon would stop spawning. If the crate where to respawn, than the weapon would start respawing again.
So to put it basically, a script that spawns an object while another object is presently occupying the map.
Also, I have a question. Are you adding on to the current scripts.dll, or are you making your own from scratch? Like will all the features of the scripts we have now still be available?

I believe there's already a script that enables or disables spawners when a custom is sent to it. Also, a script that sends a custom when someone/something is killed/destroyed. So using both of those you could probably do that one idea.

I've been wanting that for some time now.
|
Do you mean the object is created in the exact same position?
|
No, when I mentioned XYZ coordinates, I wanted the options to set that in relation to the object. In TFX_Spawn_When_Killed, I can only edit where the object spawns Z Axis-wise

I have tried using scripts that I thought would work, however it just ended up crashing the level.
I was trying to make like a Conquest mode of game play (Battlefield, Star Wars Battlefront, ect)
Like when an object I made described as the command post for GDI was destroyed, the GDI spawns would halt and the Nod spawns would commence. (Because on the death of the GDI CP, the Nod CP would spawn with the spawners attached to it instead)
|
That would be cool, use script zones instead.

jonwil has a few scripts for Conquest mode already (JFW_Domination_...) except that they don't work with the spawning thing, so new scripts would be cool.
