First, look at my attachment: AC.lvl, and note placement of the flags. Hopefully that's the right file and you see the six turf flags in center of map.

Ok here's what happened. I went into the zone, but it wasn't turf, so I changed Mode=1 to Mode=2, and then I exited and came back. Now... when I go over a flag.... I can pick them up, and they spawn RIGHT where I tell them to! NIFTY! DId I just stumble upon the answer to like 40 peoples question (including my own) of specifying flag spawn coordinates? Someone test and make sure it works, but it works fine for me! And now it kicks butt! WHOOO!

Also, do you need a bot to pull of the reward of 1 point per flag per second with turf flags? If not, what's the "complicated formula" the cfg talks about? I could probably figure it out with my *wicked* math skillz. yeah!

flag:carryflags=1

that sets it so you can pick them up or not (or pick them up only one at a time)

1 point per second...that's a bit out there, how about 30 points every thirty seconds?

I'm shooting for as close to 1 point per flag per second as possible. Maybe like 5 points every 5 seconds or 10 points every 10 seconds?

I was thinking of going every 30 seconds and getting 30 points. How do I go about shutting off that victory bong file?

replace it with a silent .wav (or one with no content)

Does it need to be equal in length? or can I just make it like 0.01s long, so as to save on space... although there wouldn't be any filesize if there wasn't content... hrm.

The wave can be 0 seconds long if your wave editor supports it.
