[Dueler]

I know mav made a duel bot; but the ini is so fucking confusing! Can someone explain the layout to me in better detail than his?

[Maverick]

This is the duel.ini

Code: Show/Hide [Boxes] // Portals should be near the respawn area: bot warps players from here to the duel box // Erase the boxes you don't need, 0-7 are supported // Syntax: 0=x1 y1 x2 y2  x3 y3  x4 y4  x5 y5 x6 y6 name //          source portal   |      |         | //                     first drop  |         | //                          second drop      | //                                    box rectangle //               ||       ||       ||               | 0=508 488 511 494  290 138  432 280  285 133 437 285 1 - North-West

All you need to do is to specify coordinates. Coordinates are paired; a x-coordinate and an y-coordinate number.

For each box you write a line like this:
0=<warp box coords> <spawn position player 1 inside duel box> <spawn position player 2 inside duel box> <duel box top left coord> <duel box bottom right coord> <Duel box name>

So you get for example:
0=508 488 511 494 290 138 432 280 285 133 437 285 This is Duel Box 1!

And for the second duel box:
1=487 506 493 509 138 290 280 432 133 285 285 437 This is Duel Box 2!

For each duel box, increase the number before the = .

How to get the Coordinates, Warp Box:
Click the Select tool
Select the area and get the numbers from the bottom status bar.
Notice how the numbers from this picture match the numbers in the CODE example.

How to get the Coordinates, Spawn Point 1:
Hold your mouse above the point where you want player #1 to spawn. Remember and write down the coordinates.

And the same for the rest.

BTW. I used SSME in the example images.

Really. If you need a graphic tutorial to explain it, why not make it simpler? What ever happened to

Code: Show/Hide [Box1] Portal= FirstDrop= SecondDrop= Box=

lazyness to change the original bot

http://catid.ssihosting.com/files/plugins/duel.zip

It's not really that hard at all and you only need to do it once to setup the bot.

It's not that hard.

what do you put in for the BOX= part? Can some a sample map or something

[Maverick]

Guest, the plugin doesn't use

Code: Show/Hide [Box1] Portal= FirstDrop= SecondDrop= Box=

Follow the directions in the 2nd post of this thread or Agurus post.

Code: Show/Hide // Duel boxes should have no exits and fit within a rectangle [Boxes] // Portals should be near the respawn area: bot warps players from here to the duel box // Erase the boxes you don't need, 0-7 are supported // Syntax: 0=x1 y1 x2 y2  x3 y3  x4 y4  x5 y5 x6 y6 name //          source portal   |      |         | //                     first drop  |         | //                          second drop      | //                                    box rectangle 0=510 489 513 493  424 256  599 417  415 245 710 485 1 North - Regular 2=510 531 514 535  424 610  599 771  409 595 609 782 2 South - Regular

Ok, i have a couple questions.

This Set of coords, (

Code: Show/Hide 510 489 513 493

)
are the warp box coords, correct? (whereas you go into the box and get warped directly to the duel box)

Im not really understanding what the other sets of coords are for, im at a brainfart at the moment, so can someone please help me out..?

<warp box coords> <spawn position player 1 inside duel box> <spawn position player 2 inside duel box> <duel box top left coord> <duel box bottom right coord> <Duel box name>

The <warp box coords> are like the set of coords you posted; 510 489 513 493. The rest of the coordinates you need to enter are described above.

[Solid_Fire]

Oh ok, thank you mav, Appreciate it I Just got a little confused. It happens.

[Maverick]

No problem, good luck with it.

[Solid_Fire]

Hmm, it seems that when i try and go into the box, it doesnt warp me any where....does there need to be some kind of "Warp Tile" or something..i think im missing something...i'v got the warp box coords setup and stuff :/..so much thinking my it hurts.

[Maverick]

Copy/Paste your .ini and your map (or PM it) so I can check it for errors.

I'll pm you the map.

[Maverick]

This is your code and it should work. What you did wrong is that you took the coordinates from the wrong textbox of SSME. You need to take the coordinates from the most right one, not the one in the middle.

Code: Show/Hide // Duel boxes should have no exits and fit within a rectangle [Boxes] // Portals should be near the respawn area: bot warps players from here to the duel box // Erase the boxes you don't need, 0-7 are supported // Syntax: 0=x1 y1 x2 y2  x3 y3  x4 y4  x5 y5 x6 y6 name //          source portal   |      |         | //                     first drop  |         | //                          second drop      | //                                    box rectangle 0=491 510 496 513  198 509  306 511  196 471 310 550 Duel Box 1 1=527 510 532 513  828 510  721 511  716 467 833 552 Duel Box 2

Ohh ok, thank you. I'll remember that next time. Appreciate the help mav .
