Title: EZ Script Headaches
Post by: Boalt92 on September 20, 2009, 09:37:52 PM
Back working on the on-again, off-again, off-again, off-again, on-again....wait, where was I?

At any rate.  Thought I'd Keep It Simple Stupid with EZ Script and of course I was wrong.  Worked out most of the kinks on this script but it's still doing something annoying (not a major problem, mind you, just annoying).  So I thought I'd post here for some help.

I wrote a really basic capture-the-flag script a while back to test some freeroam ideas and I thought I'd refine it for a public release.  This is the template.  It works fine but when your flag is destroyed sometimes it keeps repeating the "flag is destroyed" cutscene.  Seems to happen when flag takes multiple hits prior to despawning.  Other than that the script works fine.  I'd just like to resolve this last issue before I add the full line-up of game modes.

Log is below, but I don't think there were any "errors" per se.  The script itself is too long to post here, but if you want to test it you can copy/paste it from here  (just remember, it's in "zeta" stage at this point.  villains/objects are really just placeholders).  There are no special markers, so it should run on any EZ Script-enabled map:

Thanks in advance,

Ok, think I fixed it, but it made the script much more complicated.

Went to a variable system of keep score and moved the "flag destroyed" and "flag saved" shouts to separate encounters.

Will test it tonight.  If anybody has any other suggestions, I'm open to them.


Here's the first three rounds of the game:

LOL.

Let me make sure it's working AND actually release it....then we can talk!   :P

This is the base template for my single-flag game modes (3 so far).  Need to work out the kinks as it is very similar to the template for the multi-flag games (2 so far).

PS--it would probably be  much easier if I actually knew Python  :rolleyes:

Your ability to get EZ script to do things like that is truly impressive.
