Title: I dare ya...
Post by: Hunted on 23 Oct 2002, 03:20:28

Hello all,

Sorry for that silly 'subject.' Had to get your attention.  ;D

I am in desperate need of some advanced scripting from gifted person/s.


I need some kind of script to allow for the 'percentage' including the kills achieved after the game.

End of Mission
Player       Kills        Accuracy      Killed     Total
Hunted       2               60            0          60

The main purpose of this is to get the individuals 'accuracy' level.
I do realize that this is pushing the envelope abit but is there any other alternative method of getting the results?

I would greatly appreciate any help  :-\

Thanks in advance.

With the new patch out it is possible to add event handlers, with this it is possible to keep track of which unit is killed and by whom. I know there are some scripts that count how much ammo u used so 1 and 1 is three, mix the scripts and you have what you want. succes

Thanks Ottie,

But Could you tell me where to find that particular script?
I can't seem to find it, despite looking at all the forums...just realized how long it took for me to read them all  :o

FYI- 'Event Handler' <--now that I know what that is called. :)

Ok guys, thanks for helping me guiding to the right direction but...

The "Ammo count" is actually something similar but not quite the right one I am looking for.

Basically what I would like to see is a script that shows the ratio/percentage of the players shooting.  i.e. 25%,32%,~90% etc

Any other great ideas? thanks in advance.

The only thing I can suggest is to keep a count of ammo used, which you could do by modifying the ammocount script above. You would have to allow for picking up more ammo, changing half-empty magazines and dropping magazines as well as changing weapons (with an immediate change in ammo amount). It is a very challenging scripting proposition you have there..  (sound fun yet?)

Then, add a 'hit' eventhander to each person. You'd have to play with this a bit, I don't know whether it passes the shooter - I think it does. So just increment a value for each player.

So, with those modifications to ammocount, you now have a script that counts shots fired and a script that counts hits, and again, 1 + 1 = 3.

There is also a script somewhere in the ed depot which was pre-event handler and could keep track of who killed who, but I don't know how it did it as I never examined it.

I have never seen a script that will achieve exactly what you want.

Try the Browse Snippets and use the Search feature.

Cheers,
