[Tutorial] How to use Obsidian Mapadd

You could use a cfg script to turn lives mode on. Or you could change the worldspawn entity. cfg route is easier.
Take a look at oc_freezingpoint_cfg.txt
Setting mp_teamoverride to 1 will force teams on a map.

I dont want teams just normal lives and I dont know how to turn them on but I also want to turn on hl1 style crossbow how would I add that?

"mp_livesoverride"
{
"Force Lives Mode"
{ BOOL }
{ "0" }
}

"mp_numlives"
{
"Number of Lives"
{ NUMBER 0 99 }
{ "0" }
}

"mp_hl1crossbow"
{
"Half-Life 1 Style Crossbow"
{ BOOL }
{ "0" }
}

From settings.scr in the cfg directory.

ok I think I get it so it should look like this right?

"oc_noamz"
{
mp_livesoverride "1"
mp_numlives "5"
mp_hl1crossbow "1"
}

Yes, that should work fine.

So this will force the map to always be played with lives, even if the server's settings are not set to lives game mode?

So what exactly happens when you run out of lives? do you just go into spectator or what?

hmm, when everyone on the team runs out of lives the game ends. use the lives manager ent to give lives even to dead players.

I don't think there's currently support for reviving dead players

.

Will there be support in the future?

i have a problem: i removed a point_servercomand entitie with the name "restart"(it changed the map to antlion_troppers2), i changed the outputs of a trigger_once and i tried to add a game end_entitie, but it doesn´t work.

Code: Select all

kanny_lockdown
{
remove
{
Targetname 
{ 
"Restart" {} 
} 

Modify 
{ 
Origin 
{ 
"-3424 6042 66" 
{ 
connections
	{
		"OnTrigger" "end,EndGame,,0,-1"
	}

Add
{
"game_end"
{
	"targetname" "end"
	"origin" "-3426 6045 67"
}
}
}

whats wrong with it?

I dont believe

connections
{
"OnTrigger" "end,EndGame,,0,-1"
}

is the way it works, only in vmf files. I cant remember the line used to add.

Code: Select all

	Modify
	{
		Origin
		{
			"-3424 6042 66"
			{
                          //everything should be in there.
			}
		}
	}

Let me get back to you about how to use outputs.
