[Trigger] one player in game - defeat

[OmegaOne]

How has a trigger to look like
that if only 1 player is in game at beginning the map ends?

Because its an RPG with Save/Load and so he can't cheat?

You can just check how many players are playing with conditions.

However, I think a nicer solution will be checking if the game is in Single Player (non-b.net) with this code

local integer i = 0
if bj_isSinglePlayer == true then
    loop
        exitwhen i == GetPlayersAll()
        call CustomDefeatBJ(Player(i), "Single player is not allowed !")
        set i = i + 1
    endloop    
endif

You can just make this in GUI with custom scripts (write exacly like this, every line in a diffrent custom script).

like this?

• Trigger
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actionens
    • Custom script: local integer i = 0
    • Custom script: if bj_isSinglePlayer == true then
    • Custom script: loop
    • Custom script: exitwhen i == GetPlayersAll()
    • Custom script: call CustomDefeatBJ(Player(i), "Single player is not allowed !")
    • Custom script: set i = i + 1
    • Custom script: endloop
    • Custom script: endif

it doesn't work, it displays an error in "exitwhen i == GetPlayersAll()"

 

[GhostWolf]

Right sorry my mistake.

I think (im not positive) it would work with this

exitwhen i == bj_forceCountPlayers

 

[OmegaOne]

nope, it has no errors but i can play single player... damn, i got no idea how to do in gui

 

[GhostWolf]

Oh well, then just write it this way

local integer i = 0
if bj_isSinglePlayer == true then
    loop
        exitwhen i = 11
        call CustomDefeatBJ(Player(i), "Single player is not allowed !")
        set i = i + 1
    endloop
endif

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 1.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: local integer i = 0
    • Custom script: if bj_isSinglePlayer == true then
    • Custom script: loop
    • Custom script: exitwhen i = 11
    • Custom script: call CustomDefeatBJ(Player(i), "Single player is not allowed !")
    • Custom script: set i = i + 1
    • Custom script: endloop
    • Custom script: endif

Im not even sure if it needs to exit the loop as it defeats the player but, who knows. Maybe the game will crash even before defeating him lol.

Why would you want such a dumb and stupid system you fool!

Simply do what all good RPGs do and disable the save/load system from functioning if only 1 human player is present. That way people like your map more, your map has a greater chance of being approved and no one can cheat. You can do this by counting the number of human players that are present and if they equal 1 then disabling the triggers that handle saving and loading.

bj_isSinglePlayer == true also does not stop cheating, as they could make a LAN game and hack them selves a hero of strong power by using a memory editor which is totally legal as they are not using it online.

Also implimenting a single player kick system is asking for your map to be ripped and ruined (people have a reason to do so) and that kind of trigger is insainly easy to edit and disable no matter how well you try and protect your map.

hey i just found that trigger on an unprotected RPG map it looks like this

• No Singleplayer
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: if bj_isSinglePlayer then
    • Custom script: call EndGame(true)
    • Custom script: endif

and it works *YAY*

thanks anyway im happy now

i dont think so, disabling the save/load trigger is a possibility but you can cheat then anyway and see the whole map and check everything
and yes maybe you can "hack" everymap anyway but i dont think the most know how to ^^ so i think my map is saver that way now

P.S. i'am not a fool

 

[HappyTauren]

Wow I got an infraction for this post! Thanks ralle!

 

[OmegaOne]

stop calling me fool thats offensive.

then tell me how that trigger has exctly to look like to disable the save load system

 

[GhostWolf]

I think he actually called my a fool but whatever.

It would look something like this

• Untitled Trigger 154.24
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
    • (Number of players in (All players controlled by a User player)) Equal to 1
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off yourLoadTrigger

 

[OmegaOne]

it does not work like that, i dont know why, it doesnt matter if i set the number to ma number of plaers and to equal or if i do it like this it just wont work...

 

[Dr Super Good]

OmegaOne, I am sorry if you misunderstood what I was saying. My post was trying to be perswasive rather than critisising you. I purly used the "fool" part to grab your attention and to increase the strength of the argument against such a system, I did not mean it to be a direct insult.

Thus I am sorry if I offended you as it was not aimed to be insultive. It was just to try and convince you there are better ways to stop single player cheating in save / load RPGs.

 

[OmegaOne]

it's okay, i just cant get a trigger working that disables the save trigger

 

[OmegaOne]

i just dont get it, doesn't matter what i try, i think that trigger doesnt count the player in game but the player that are possible in my map
so i have 8 possible player, if i set equal to 8 then it disables the save trigger

• (Number of players in (All players matching ((((Matching player) controller) Equal to User) and (((Matching player) slot status) Equal to Is playing)))) Equal to 1

 

[OmegaOne]

seems to work perfect, thanks again wolf

(Number of players in (All players matching ((((Matching player) controller) Equal to User) and (((Matching player) slot status) Equal to Is playing)))) Equal to 1
