3rd team possible. 4th team too?

Post by Rends »

Just wonder if we can have 4 teams on the map.

I´m thinkin about locals for my Mos Eisley map and the 3rd team is set to friendly to both sides.
Just wonder if i could use a 4th team set as enemy?

yes, you can have as many teams as you want, untill the CP limit is reached.

I don't think you're even limited to that. Teams don't necessarily need a cp to spawn. You just need a spawn path and Ambush() or SetupAmbush(). In fact, you could probably could use a timer and Ambush() to setup a system that could mimick a cp.

Well xwingguy have reason....

In the game the Geonosians, for example doesn't need a CP to spawn....

P.S: Someone know how i can add a 3rd team?????

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think [RDH]Zerted found a way to make multiple playable teams, though he hasn't announced how to yet.

Not quite sure what you mean there, but more than likely the Geonosians have an invisible CP, just like all the other locals do.

Its possible to change any unit to a different team, or just make it look like its on a different team, but the game was not designed to do this with human players so there are some issues with it.

Scoring is only displayed for teams 1 and 2. A human on another team will have his/her score displayed on team 1 or team 2. The player's kills are determined by the team the character is on, not which team the character's unit is on. I can only change a unit's team.

I can't make a button for another team on the team selection screen. Which players go to which teams would have to be random or there would need to be some type of 'team swap' region on the map.

I cannot make a standard looking unit selection screen for the other teams. The other teams would need to have only one human playable character class or the player's unit would need to be picked randomly.

If you want to see an example of more than 2 playable teams, take a look at the Deathmatch game mode's source code.

If you want to play around with some team swapping, checkout the Fake Conosle commands.
