Game Modes

[Raging Ent]

Hello there!

Can anyone help me make a game mode system just like DotA's?
I need players to be able to select 1 'primary' and unlimited 'secondary' game modes but can't seem to get it working.


Greetings, Naro.

Primary, secondary, what ?

 

[Raging Ent]

Well, just like dota, my map has primary and secondary game modes.
primary modes decide how you pick your hero / what the win condition is, important stuff.
secondary modes decide whether or not you respawn, if all int heroes get removed, etc.

Meaning you should be able to pick 1 'Primary' Game Mode.
And unlimited 'Secondary' Game Mode.

(DotA e.g.: -apemomaidmso
Where All Pick is the primary game mode, it decides how you pick your hero.
And EasyMode, OnlyMid, AllInt, DeathMatch, SwitchOn decide other stuff and can be chosen all at once.)

• player types
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing - as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Entered chat string) Equal to (Substring(ap, 2, 3))
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- do actions for this mode --------
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Entered chat string) Equal to (Substring(ar, 2, 3))
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- do actions for this mode --------
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Entered chat string) Equal to (Substring(sd, 2, 3))
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- do actions for this mode --------
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Entered chat string) Equal to (Substring(om, 4, 5))
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- do actions for this mode --------
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Entered chat string) Equal to (Substring(em, 4, 5))
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- do actions for this mode --------
      • Else - Actions

so notic how ap/ar/sd use the strings 2 and 3 this is your primary game mode and om and em use 4 and 5 they are your Secondary Game Mode. this will only work for somthing like -apem -arem -sdom

to make it somthing like -apemom -sdomem
just add the if then else for the secondary modes for substrings 6 and 7.
so its going to be alot of work when making alot of secondary modes unless you or some one can work out a system for you i cant i dont mess around with substrings

 

[Raging Ent]

Yeah I use something like that right now but like you said, gonna use alot of substrings..

 

[millzy]

i suggest u work out some system

 

[Raging Ent]

Maybe we should make it the other way around,

The event should be player typed a chat message containing ap
Condition would be that the first character of the chat message is -

And primary modes should disable eachother in the actions so you can't overlap.

This would require more shorter triggers but it's easier to add / edit.

You can try use my cheatpack system than just reconfig every command to your needs
Here
Or you can try this:

EDIT: If you want me to make the whole system for you pm me everything I need to know about the mode system, the modes ect.

 

[Raging Ent]

I'll have a look at it Thanks for the effort anyway!
