i need to find out how to set up where people get warped when they enter and how to make it that the ships have no weapons or item and the shoot key shoots the fire ball?

CypherJF · Posted: Mon Jun 21, 2004 4:05 am Post subject:

Spawning Locations:

Code: Show/Hide

[Spawn]
Team0-X=0
Team0-Y=0
Team0-Radius=0
Team1-X=0
Team1-Y=0
Team1-Radius=0
Team2-X=0
Team2-Y=0
Team2-Radius=0
Team3-X=0
Team3-Y=0
Team3-Radius=0

I believe you may set this up for teams 0-9..

To have no weapons:

Code: Show/Hide

[(ship)]
InitialGuns=0
InitialBombs=0

And maybe the prize weight for those two categories to be really low, if not zero?

Code: Show/Hide

[Soccer]
AllowBombs=0
AllowGuns=0

Will release the ball when firing.

Ballcount = 1
As D1st0rt said, it normally takes a small amount of time; just wait. If you're a sysop type ?get soccer:ballcount; and make sure its > 0.

Warpto: You need to private message this command for it to work. The format in which you have posted is correct.

my bot said i'm the owner but the zone thinks i'm just a normal playerwhere can i change that????

Did you type in your sysop password? ex: *mysysoppassword

CypherJF · Posted: Fri Jun 25, 2004 4:57 pm Post subject:

If the bot is saying your owner, then you have your level of op set to 5; change it to 4 in the operators.txt

D1st0rt · Posted: Sat Jun 26, 2004 12:50 am Post subject:

what? Being an owner is better than being a bot sysop...

I think hes saying he has no staff powers

CypherJF · Posted: Sat Jun 26, 2004 1:19 am Post subject:

Yeah I think re-phrasing will help

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Sat Jun 26, 2004 10:26 am Post subject:

OK. The problem here is that you don't quite understand what MERVbot is. MERVBot looks just like a normal player (albeit VIE encryption) to subgame. He needs to have a correct staff password to use staff commands. His operator rankings are completely different from the ones used by subgame.

Hence, if you want to be a sysop on subgame, then you need to type your password in-zone to login. Just adding yourself to operators.txt will not work.

His original post was answered. I was attempting to clarify others' responses to his MERVBot confusion.
