Post subject: Python Module

I want to create a simple python module that just displays an image when either freq 0 or freq 1 wins the flag game and play a sound.

Could someone assist me in where to start with the code. I looked on thw wiki, but can't find what I need.

Start with a python module that prints a message when either freq 0 or freq 1 wins the flag game.

Then move on to attaching sounds (aka bongs) to an empty arena message.

From there, take a look at the objects module (see object.h) to see how to display images. See how ?objon works (the objects module is a bit hard to read, take it slowly and ask for help when you need it) and see if you can apply it to your module.

A code snippet done by smong that was taken out of UT_Bombrun.py from the pack of modules in the UT project found here: http://forums.minegoboom.com/viewtopic.php?t=6382

Code: Show/Hide

# check for soccer game over
if arena.utbr_tokens[team] >= arena.utbr_capturepoints or \
arena.utbr_suddendeath:
# notify arena
chat.SendArenaSoundMessage(arena, SOUND_DING, "Soccer game over."
+ " Freq %d are the winners." % p.freq)

# toggle lvz
if cfg_winlvzid:
objs.Toggle(arena, cfg_winlvzid + (p.freq % 2), 1)

If I remember correctly, this module does what you are looking for. I think we had different lvz for the different freqs winning a game. Anyway, just pointing out somewhere you could start looking.

?objon doesn'y work in my zone, any idea why?

Also, in this module, would it be possible to have a 10 second delay, then a new message and object displayed, followed by a prize.

Assuming I have not coded anything, lol. I don't really understand how it all works, but would like to.

Make sure "objects" is in modules.conf. If not, just add it to the end.

Start small, then move on from there.
