Hey umm, where can i get a capital ship bot (or plugin) like the one in TW (starcon arena)? Well it doesnt have to be exactly like TW's, i just want it to allow players in a certain ship only if they message the bot with !capital (or something like that)

bot & plugin like SWZ

for starcon...you can just lock the arena and assign ships using *setship

erm... but thats just not good... I want the bot to use only 1 ship as capital not 2. That plugin wont do cuz then i'd have to make 2 capital ships, and, for example, team 0 would be able to use lancaster freely. I know what ur thinking, "well just make it so ships 1-4 have freq0, and the rest - freq 1, like in deathstarbattle". Well that allows me to make only 1 capital ship and 3 other ships, which ISNT enough.

cmmmmoooon cant sum1 write me a simple plugin that allows only 1 person per team (NOT a high scorer, but whoever messages the bot !capital or something like that first) use ship 8 (just example). I will give 10 of my best self-made 3D graphics and sounds for continuum. 3D!!!!

sure the plugin requires two freqs?

altogether it's just so easy to do without a bot there's little point

i don't think that there is any plugin for 1 capital ship for all freqs...
you have to code it yourself :/

man but i cant program. Sum1 do it for me? reward - best of my 3D graphics (made em myself, real sweetness) Check out the pic to see some of them (the spikeballs in top left and bottom right are nueted flags, they rotate. In the middle you see an L3 bomb which looks like a burning sphere trapped inside 2 rotating rings, really cool. And around the bomb you see my 3D L3 bullets which are also animated - they look like they're pulsating). Cmon, who wants some of that?! Write me a plugin

sigh i guess i got no choice. I have a question bout ths plugin http://catid.sscentral.com/files/plugins/titanium.zip (it lets only high scorers operate capital ships). For example. A game starts, and the high scorers start in capital ships. But then, a person who's score is even higher comes into that game. Does the bot leave the current capital ship alone or makes the switch?

test it and find out

FudLe Pucker · Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2003 7:05 pm Post subject:

well, yeah, eventually i will find out on my own, but now i don't have the time to look for a sum1 who would help me test it out (plus i gotta finish the settings, get a host, yada yada..), so i was just wondering if any of you know.

The existance of my zone depends on it. I believe if i get that bot, i'll have min 50 ppl on average

ShortyMatt · Posted: Wed Aug 13, 2003 11:58 am Post subject:

dude...it lets ONE person be the capital ship...so if a higer guy came on...i suspect that IF the higer guy WANTED to be the CAPITIAL SHIP then the other CAPITAL SHIP would have to give it up..and ur zone depends on THIS plugin.....u must be going out-on-a-limb-there (good luck)

Well I'm just now starting my own bot programming, and it will involve a capital ship. Not high on my priority list, but I'll try to send (email address?) something to you if I'm able to write one.

well thanks... why is it always like this, whenever i quit on something, help arrives. just zip the file and post it here if its not too big

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2003 6:38 pm Post subject: Finally

Sorry it took so long, took a while to get the quirks worked out.

Edit: Didn't test it enough. Stupid errors in the zip I had here, so I took it off. Just use the copy on my website.

FudLe Pucker · Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2003 6:43 pm Post subject:

thanks cyan, but i already built a ctf zone, i'll make capital wars subarena

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Fri Aug 22, 2003 11:56 pm Post subject:

Gah, sorry there were a few errors in the last one.
Now it's V .2

Since I'm not gonna post it here everytime I fix something, just go here:

cyan, the plug in doesnt work at all. !scont just locks players in spec mode... how do i switch ships?

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Sat Aug 30, 2003 6:12 pm Post subject:

Well first of all, !scont doesn't lock, just uses *specall to put em in spec.

Second: You're using the old version.

Sorry for the bad old versions, I really shouldn't've released them (even as Alpha versions.)
