How to increase Space Assault maximum points?

I would like to increase the maximum points in space assault, but I don't find the option to adjust it.

Does anybody know a solution?

I'm relying on memory here but there should be a space assult LUA that can be modified somewhere in the scripts folder. You should be able to edit values there.

Do you remember which script it was?

it seems points are set in the common script "ObjectiveSpaceAssault" but there is no line that defines the limit so it appears it may not be changeable.

not to be a smart @$$ here, but why not just change the values ingame?

also could this be it? the 100 representing 100%
Hidden/Spoiler:
AddAIGoal(REP, "Deathmatch", 100)
AddAIGoal(CIS, "Deathmatch", 100)
these are found in the ***c_Diet Dr. Pepper lua of your space map, for reference.

Those values have absolutely nothing to do with what Redline is talking about. They control exactly what the label implies - AI goals.

Try this

http://www.gametoast.com/forums/viewtop ... 27&t=22907

This works for hero assault mode, maybe it works the same way for space assault.

Space Assault mode with more ScoreLimit points!

thx for your answer but it doesn't work for space assault. I tested it a few days before.


EDIT
Hey guys what's up? I know I've asked this before but I'm still searching for a possibility to change the maxium ScoreLimited points in a Space Assault mode.
Normally you can only have a maxium of 300 ScoreLimit points but I still believe that there is a solution to increase this.
The key for this should be the LUA ObjectiveSpaceAssault
Let's have a look into the script:

function ObjectiveSpaceAssault:OnCriticalSystemDestroyed(name, pointValue)
--designers, override me as necessary!
print("TEST - critical system destroyd:", name, "pointValue:", pointValue) --TODO: remove this line
end

-- name: the name of the object in the level (duh)
-- pointValue: how many points the object is worth when it's destroyed
-- hudPosX, hudPosY: texture coordinates for placing the hud health indicator for the critical system
-- (should be in the range of 0.0 to 1.0)
function ObjectiveSpaceAssault:AddCriticalSystem(name, pointValue, hudPosX, hudPosY)
if hudPosX and hudPosY then
--add the critical system as normal
SpaceAssaultAddCriticalSystem(name, pointValue, hudPosX, hudPosY)
else
--add the critical system, but tell C++ not to display a HUD marker
SpaceAssaultAddCriticalSystem(name, pointValue, -1.0, -1.0, false)
end

OnObjectKillName(
function (objectPtr, killer)
self:OnCriticalSystemDestroyed(name, pointValue)
AddSpaceAssaultDestroyPoints(killer, GetEntityName(objectPtr))

The only thing that I could change for now are the team points. So if this is possible then it should be possible to change the ScoreLimit of a team too.
There is one command which could change the ScoreLimit and the command is SpaceAssaultGetScoreLimit.
So we have a command to change the ScoreLimit. The only question which is left is how to program it that the space assault mode change from 300 to 600 to exsample.
I've already tried to use the command but it doesn't change everything. I used the command like this: SpaceAssaultGetScoreLimit(600)
You can also see where I've added the command in my ObjectiveSpaceAssault.lua.
Furthermore today I've tried many different ways like if() and so on but that all didn't worked as well.
Any suggestions?

You could try:

SetUberMode(1);

Set Ubermode only changes the AI count, I tried it in one of my space maps. I'm still not sure how to change the Scorelimit.

I suggested the UberMode because you can increase the number of reinforcements higher than 150 when enabling it in conquest mode.
I don't know what else you could try, sry.

hmm if you host assault on a dedicated server the maximum score is 500 instead of 300...

that doesn't really have anything to do with lua modding but it has the effect that you want.

theres an FC command to increase reinforcement but i don't have the code translation of that command. :|

Thx you and all the other guys for help but do we have anyone who knows the code translation of that command? It would be helpful. I would just put it into the ABC_Diet Dr. Pepper.lua.

Did you try something like:
assault = ObjectiveSpaceAssault:New{
teamATT = IMP, teamDEF = ALL,
multiplayerRules = true,
isUberMode = true,
uberScoreLimit = 900 --whatever number you want
}
?

Yes and it does not work. D:
