Event on flag score

[BurnedKirby]

I'm trying to make a script that kills everyone when someone scores with the flag, but the script I'm trying to make wouldn't work. Any suggestions?

procedure OnFlagScore(ID, TeamFlag: byte)
var
c: byte;
begin
for c:=1 to 32 do if GetPlayerStat(c,'Active') = true then DoDamage(c,4000);
end;

That code is working just fine. Are you sure you've included the proper script?

[BurnedKirby]

Yes I have. But when I try running the dedicated server, it crashes on me on start without an error message. The server works fine when I take the folder out with that specific script, and I did implement the "Includes" file correctly.

Edit because I'm a total dumbass:
So no error message is given, at all? What's the complete list of scripts you're trying to load?

[BurnedKirby]

Like I said before, there is no error message. When I try running the dedicated server with the script, the command screen pops up as normal, but a split second after I open it, it closes by itself. This happens alot when I have an error in the script since it won't happen when I have fixed a script..

Close soldat and retry running dedicated server.

[BurnedKirby]

Soldat is closed. I never even had soldat on.

That probably means there's a compilation error. Run the server from a command prompt (Start, Run, cmd, make your way to the Soldatserver directory and then type soldatserver) and paste the output here.

Or for an easier way just make a new .bat file in the server directory and open it with notepad and put in: soldatserver.exe and then just run that

Also, you should be checking if they are alive not active - if I'm understanding the purpose of the script correctly...

Under windows XP, batch files auto-close when they end, so the same thing would happen; you need a two-line batch file with the last line being "pause".

[BurnedKirby]

Bear with me here, since I'm not very good with the windows command prompt at all. So I have to make a text file saying soldatserver.exe, re-save it as a bat file, and run it with the command prompt? If thats what I have to do, then I don't know how to do it.

[Toumaz]

Unzip the contents of this zip file to your soldatserver directory and double click run.bat.

[chrisgbk]

I need to semi-correct what I said above; the server currently generates a ctrl-c when it shuts down (unless it REALLY crashes) which causes windows to ask if you want to abort the batch file; this was done to workaround a issue with the server hanging on shutdown. But still useful to have, in case it crashes nastily, so you can report it.

[BurnedKirby]

Finally figured out my problem.... XD
It turns out, i forgot to include a semi-colon after the "procedure OnFlagScore(ID, TeamFlag: byte)"
I placed the semi colon after it now, and it works.

Sorry for all the trouble.

how would you make it so it only affects the other team

[Toumaz]

Code: [Select]

for c:=1 to 32 do
     if (GetPlayerStat(c,'Active')=true) and (GetPlayerStat(c,'team')=WhatEverTeamnumberYouWant) then
          DoDamage(c,4000);

[Tosty]

By the other team i meant if you were on blue and scored it would kill all red and if you were on red it would kill all blue

 not just a chosen team

DoDamage(i,4000);
end;

ok thx

[ghg]

Wow thanks. I'd just been re-launching it and trying to catch the message with a Print Screen.
