Okay. So I'm glad to see the site's back up and breathing! Been using it for quite a long time now. So yeah, hello again everyone!
Well, I went over a friend's with my PC a few months ago and we played some LAN. Just the two of us. And it was great fun. Being the flashpoint devotee I am, I managed to get him to play some missions I'd made. And it was great! So I started make loads more, there and then, and playing them as we went. Silly ones, serious ones, etc. But all of them pretty poorly made, considering we wanted to get playing.
One of these was a duelling mission. Two Civillians, armed with revolvers, duking it out in a desert valley on Nogova. One starting at either end, using rocks and the sparse trees for cover. It was great fun! Problem was, there was no scoring, no respawn, no point counting. Nothing like that. Once one of us died, we'd restart and do it again. Repeat until bored.
Well, I've downloaded a couple of reference guides, but I really can't figure how to script point counting. I'd ideally like a little count of each player's kills. Perhaps coming up at the end of each 'round' (i.e: when one of us dies) and then for the dead player to respawn and both players to be reset to the starting positions. Mabye having a kill limit for the game to end. For instance, first to 10 kills.
Anyone able to give me some tips on the various aspects of coding this? I have quite a lot of OFP coding experience. But never anything to do with MP issues like point scoring and respawning.
