Ok, is it possible to make one team win with an lua function? If so, how would you do it? Also, can this be done WITHOUT forcing the players on to a certain team. Thanks in advance.

EDIT
BTW, there is an eight minute timer on this map.

I don't know much about lua coding, but there's a command in the FC to force a win, so I'd assume it's possible.

Sorry if this is a n00by question, but what is FC?

Free Cam, a mod made by Zerted, that comes with a console with some cheats and nice stuff in it, including forced winning. So it is possible. (Ok stop looking at me now I only know very very basic LUA coding)

MissionVictory(team#) is the callback. You'd probably want to tie it to OnTimerElapse(), since you said your map is a timed one. Make sure you read through the "Battlefront2_scripting_system.doc" file in your documentation.

Exactly where does this line go?

Posted: **Thu Jun 26, 2008 3:17 pm**

Wherever, but it has to be tied to something, there needs to be a condition to the win/loss.

Posted: **Fri Jun 27, 2008 12:27 pm**

Could you post an example? Sorry, I'm new to timers and stuff like that.

Posted: **Fri Jun 27, 2008 12:32 pm**

Well what's the condition?
Object destroyed, time runs out, a certain CP is captured, etc.

I couldn't post the example anyway though, I don't do much advanced scripting.

Ok, I want the game to force the ATT (1) Team to win after the timer (8 minutes) has run out. What would I edit in my LUA?

It's as simple as looking at a campaign mode .lua, that's where a lot of .lua questions are answered.
Think about the Hoth campaign and how you have to finish in a certain amount of time. Here's the code for that:

Code: Select all

timeoutTimer = CreateTimer("timeout")
	SetTimerValue(timeoutTimer, 1260)
    ShowTimer(timeoutTimer)
    
    OnTimerElapse(
        function(timer)
            MissionVictory(DEF)
            ScriptCB_SndPlaySound("HOT_obj_07")
            ShowTimer(nil)
            DestroyTimer(timer)
        end,
        timeoutTimer
        )
