Bot Questions - Invasion

Post subject: Invasion

I'm basing a certain zone on a "invasion" type gameplay. The gameplay works like this:

There is 2 major bases for 2 freqs. Each freq owns 1 and only 1 base. There is a flag in the deep side of the base that acts as a Turf style. When an enemy ship takes the flag and "invades" the base, I need a plugin that will say in arena txt: Freq 1 has invaded Freq 2's territory! Also, it would be convenient if there was an .ini so I can edit the arena message when they base is invaded. Also, a PrivAction would be good in the .ini so it will PM all the players of the losing team that their base is being invaded. Finally, can you put a flag coordinate set so I may set the coordinate of the flag via a MERVbot.

I am requesting this plugin, and would REALLY appreciate it if it was done.

Thanks!

You sound intelligent enough to do it yourself, go ahead.

I think there's already a plugin that will perform actions like messages/lvz object toggles when players enter a specified box of tiles.

Yes, but it won't do exactly what I want. I think you are referring to TM-Baw ?

I think there is a plugin called Message Bot that does that.

No, Message Bot delivers messages over a period of time.

I thought i saw a plugin at catid that did that, it might be tmbaw but that just makes it so when you warp the ship it says a message then if you want it to.

You can customize TM-Baw so it won't warp you; but then again, that isn't what I am exactly looking for.

Basically, I think what you're asking is

PlayerPosition check for inside region based on team
Messaging if detected
Flag moving from the CTF plugin

am I right?

Yes, however I am trying to merge a couple plugins that will do this for me like TM-Baw and a little src hack for the PrivAction. Muskrat told me that since it is Turf, SSME can coord the flag for me by mapping the flag tile on a desired coord.

The plugin merging is unsuccessful for me, and there were some compilation errors. So, yes, basically I want that what is listed except for the "]Flag moving from the CTF plugin".

It would be nice if an expert programmer like you will merge the plugins for me so it'll do what I wish as stated in my first post.

Yeah, cant really move a turf flag with a bot, but I still think you should use the ctf style if you want to move the flag with a command, could just edit that plugin, Nevertheless, the messagebot will work for the other things you want, with a little changing.

Hey, what happened to my custom title

My zone will be turf not CTF. As for your title, that was a custom "Post 50" title, so it goes away after your 50th post.

Note:

TM_Baw 1.5+ (I think) is for LVZ placement.

Below that, it's warps.

Let's not get confused, eh?

Bump...and TM-Baw is not for LVZ placement. I don't really need this plugin anymore so this topic is now rendered useless to me.

EDIT: Fixed spelling.
