Is there a way in the cfg to award points when entering the arena so that players do not start off at zero.

You could just use a bot too do that ez.

Why would any zone need people who just entered to have points? To make the newbie feel better?

Just wanting to know...

It is for the bowling lvz. You have to buy rockets one a time to throw ball. I figured out how one of the four lanes can green a rocket when needed. but the other lanes must purchase them. I have a sloppy way they can get points now, but was justed wondering if they could get them as they entered. SSI TWdev ?go bowling

Why not just give each player 1 rocket to start off with?

Set the cost for rockets to be -1. Then, when you buy the rocket, you actually earn a point. If points mean nothing, then this is a fine way.

Be warned: the item won't show in the ?buy list, but you can still buy it. I used to have fun with this trick a long time ago, back before continuum/*points were made. It confused people to see your score go up randomly during a game.
