Does anyone know how to change the timer and amount of kills needed for victory for the hunt script?

in data_XXX/Common/scripts/ObjectiveTDM.lua

Line 27: Change the return statement to return your time limit
Line 110: Change scorelimit to the score limit you want, then you can delete lines 103 through 108

Save and munge your map.

I did what you said, Zerted, but it didn't work. It crashed actually.

Only because you didn't technically do what he said. On line 27 you should be replacing

Code: Select all

return ScriptCB_GetHuntMaxTimeLimit()

with

Code: Select all

return 15

. You shouldn't be just adding the time before the ScriptCB.

Also, are you entirely sure you want your hunt mode to be fifteen seconds long?

oh it is in seconds? I thought that meant minutes!
And thanks for pointing that out, Mav about the changing that line thing it worked.
