Title: to limit respawns if "respawn=GROUP" in description.ext
Post by: scorpi0x on 03 Mar 2005, 10:10:54

hi guys,

i had actually posted this question earlier in the multiplayer section
trying my luck for some answers here.

the main aim limit all the players' respawns to 3 times (replacing AI), making them stay dead/respawn as bird the 4th time they die.

i have only managed to make things work the way i want it for 1 player instead of all.
----------
method
----------
1.entering the following line into init of the soldier thru mission editor.

Code: [Select]

this addEventHandler ["killed", {_this exec "respawn.sqs"}]

2. description.ext

Code: [Select]

respawn=4
respawndelay=1

3. init.sqs

Code: [Select]

deathcounter1 = 0
publicVariable "deathcounter1"

4. attached file. respawn.sqs
tried repeating step 1 for other players but doesn't work out.


have anyone done this before?
limiting the respawns for all players
can someone somehow help/guide me make this method global to all players in the mission, pls?

All help will be much appreciated. Thank You.

have you tried using different variables for each unit?

how do you change the respawn in mid game by the way?


edit : what do you mean by replacing ai? if you have 3 ai team mates then you will respawn as them until everyone of them is dead and then you will become a bird....
