Making the engine test more playable

remi

Few updates here-

* Added an "invertmouse" console option for those who like their brain to be upside down.
* Removed "buildbot",etc... replaced with "changeclass X"
* Fixed up target respawning to only happen when people walk in from other rooms.

I gets errors in console about a missing lua/BuildBot.lua file and a blank screen on create/connect with ns2lua :S

Excellent thread, I tried the first mod, with the respawning dummies, skulk and buildbot - awesome! Too bad there's no internet functionality yet, but very nice of UWE to add the networking already. Gogo deathmatch!

:'( I'm so late to the party!

Time to go sift through all the changes everyone has made, is there an irc or ventrilo up so I can catch up on all the fun Lua stuff, since I wont be around to play with it for another day or two....

I want some skulk racing 2.0.

wheres the models that you guys are using for the turret?

Phase

You have it typing the message to other players in the console. I would suggest using Server.Broadcast(etc) to type it to all the others.

That function does not do what you would expect. It only prints the message to the server's console for some reason.

turret screwed up now crashes my server please remove it again

the turret tracking yaw is what is spamming the console it still dosent spawn anything but it is spamming it like crazy

I was able to make it talk to whoever destroyed a target on my server right on their screen and not just in console.

devicenull

Interesting. The only way I was able to get it to do that was with developer mode enabled. Want to elaborate on how you managed that?

Phase

In the Game.lua inside the "DestroyTarget()" function I added Server.Broadcast(player,"message goes here"). Granted this only displayed to the player who actually destroyed the target but it did do it right on their screen and they didn't have to be the server. It appeared and disappeared on the bottom left of the screen just like anybody talking.

I'm sure there is a way to do that within other functions as well. I got the idea form the PrintDetailed(player,...) in another .lua file.

Heh nice guys.

After going in, you have to take the last version of this : <a href="http://github.com/Nayruden/ns2lua" target="_blank">http://github.com/Nayruden/ns2lua</a> (download source)
and rename the rep "lua" then place it on your ns2 folder (save the old lua before!!)
After that you can join any server created (if someone already host) or make your own serv
for joining an existing serv go into your console then type "connect *.*.*.*" (without ")
Actually the most updated/online server is 97.102.113.33 (sometime the ip can be switched on a hamachi host)
We are trying new maps, one of them can be downloaded here <a href="http://drop.io/cjgkxyy/asset/ready-level" target="_blank">http://drop.io/cjgkxyy/asset/ready-level</a> just place it on the maps folder

Any way we can get some hit confirmation? Even just a hitsound or something would be nice, I'm curious to see how good the netcode is.

Hm, everytime I try to connect to a server, it just continues to stay a blank screen with attempting to connect on the top left.

pleases this lua file initially then update from the first post

<a href="http://drop.io/cjgkxyy/asset/lua-rar" target="_blank">http://drop.io/cjgkxyy/asset/lua-rar</a>

should fix some issues where some lua files aren't being updated in the source

I think auto-reload is silly with the way the ammo is displayed. Goes against the theme and takes out some of the fun if you don't have to press anything to reload during a firefight.

I find it annoying for the game to make me press a button when I obviously want to reload when empty. Moreso now, when you don't have an alternative weapon to switch to.

Chat files were removed, and have been moved to their own branch. They are no longer in the main branch.
