How do I do it? I want my map to be unwinnable through capturing all the command posts.

Don't reference the CPs in your LUA.

At all?
So, I take out these 2 parts?

Hidden/Spoiler:

cp1 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp1"}

    cp2 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp2"}

    cp3 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp3"}

    cp4 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp4"}

Hidden/Spoiler:

conquest:AddCommandPost(cp1)

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp2)

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp3)

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp4)

Okay, did that, but now the AI don't spawn.

Whoops, sorry about that. Leave the first section but delete the second section.

Did that, but AI still don't spawn.

The AI don't spawn since they have nothing to do. They don't do anything, because you are starting a Conquest game mode with nothing to capture (since you removed all the CPs).

There are many ways to kill the victory timer. One way is to directly go into Conquest's mode scripts and prevent it from starting and/or remove its OnTimerElapse section.

I'm not sure how you would refer to a local function that's inside another function, but couldn't you just set InitDefeatTimer(), which is local to ObjectiveConquest:Start(), to a null value?

How do I do this? Which exact scripts, and which parts must be removed?
Sorry, never done this before.

EDIT: How do I hide the victory timer?
Thanks.
