Bonus Object Spawning
« on: February 26, 2010, 09:38:22 pm »
You all know the different bonuses that spawn randomly on maps at predefined places. Since there are bonuses that spawn very often and others not that much I´d like to be able to be able to have an option for each bonus object I place with the following options:

-On flag grab (red/blue)
-On flag score (red/blue)
-Every n seconds spawn n objects

This would allow new subgamemodes to be introduced to Soldat and would let mappers in the first place adjust the gameplay. Sure you could do a lot of things with such things. For example:

-Infiltration: A certain parachute spawn will only be used for defending team while the flag is taken.
-CTF: One medikit spawns on a flag after it was capped. The medikit would be used and gone and so the possibility to camp on the medikit spawnplace.
-HTF: Again there could be different spawns for the team that owns the flag and the one that tries to get the flag back.

There would be so many new possibilities! I´ll add a poll once we´ve discussed this a bit, so please share your opinion with me.

Is it rly random?

Playing ctf i feel like when my team is owning the bonuses on enemy side spawn slower and on my base faster.

I don´t know if it´s random or not, but it feels like it is.

Doubt it will be implemented, too many variables :/
I do F12 it for the sake of useful change, though.

As a built-in option I think it's a bit too specific. It will only be useful in some cases, so it would be better as a part of scriptcore.

Overall - nice suggestion, but there are a ton of things like that that need to be implemented, but they never actually do get implemented.

Another one of those yeah it's a good idea but the netcode would be better to work on.
