[BombSki]

really nice idea and it works better than i expected. its pretty hard at first but once you get an idea of all the possibilities it becomes a really nice challenge.
you should have added a demo file id say, to give people an idea

[shadow x chaos]

Nice, Ill try it out

I'm a decent map maker 

[DorkeyDear]

Hurraa! The best sub-gamemode ever! I have to say this is a blast of fun for anybody who wants to play.
More maps than I thought.
AR, I forgot what I was going to say!
oh well
if any1 hosts it, wanna share please?

Note to Linux users, in the first upload I included an 'includes.txt' instead of 'Includes.txt'. Changing the case of the 'i' should fix your problems. The archive has since been updated to address this issue.

Added a server running the game mode which can be found here

real original idea love it!

[Rampage_Terranius]

very nice and well done i must say good job

[DorkeyDear]

Suggestions:
built in stats for:
per player/account...
time run
# of portals used

or not built in, doesn't really matter

Holy ohmygosh.

You just made the best two games ever into one. Sex.
Gameplay looks great, i might make some maps, is there any requirements? (e.g. Do I have to colour-code it)
I am going to get my dedicated server working so I can play this.

wow.

Simple enough, may be better as an additional script though (or at least an alternative). If you can think of a good way to track the stats from the multi-player environment then let me know.

Have a look at the included maps. The only 'odd' requirement is a container and a bravo spawn somewhere off the main course of the map to house the Dummy. Feel free to make / use a prefab for it from one of the existing maps.

scripts/
 | Portal/...
 | Stats/
 | | Includes.txt
 | | core.pas
 | | Stats/
 | | | Map/ bunch of .log files.. suggested to be the same format as Player so only 1 function needed to get the logs of it.. organized by mapname or MD5 of mapname
 | | | Player/ same here organized by MD5 of person's nickname (due to not-allowed characters in a person's name) or a custom-made one.. if not md5, i would just get a 3-length of the value of the character, although may be long over time..

Possible log format: (\# == character num #)
PersonName\1MapName\1Deaths\1JoinCapTime\1RespawnCapTime\1NumPortals\1NumPortalType1\1NumPortalType2\2..repeat..

that probably what I would do, although you can do it whateever way if it is to be done.
would probably ignore NoPortalType1/2 when actually gathering the stats, but you may want it in the future for whatever reason

Then in the Portal script, I suggest calling using CrossFunc. something like...
CrossFunc([MapName, PlayerName, etc...], 'Stats.WriteLog');
then on command, for either Portal or Stats, probably stats
Stats.ReadLog(Filename: string): record ..all the stuff.. end; (suggested its own datatype)

mayb also include the ppl he played with?

[CMPunk]

Oh nice dude this is a beast

[Mr]

I just played that game mode yesterday (thanks to zakath for the server), and it's awesome. But I was bored fast if I just had to follow the ffc... fix this please ^_^
You could as example allow the "normal players" to create portals that only can be used once or by the own player.
