1. Well there's no way to make the greens go anywhere but the middle.
2. Yeah, Prizefactor*# of players/1000=# of Greens, so 1000=1 green per player.
3. [Prizeweight] Increase/decrease numbers to change the odds.
4. Yeah, but 100 isn't a prize .
5. [Ship] InitialBombs=
6. Like afterburners? Just set [Ship] AfterburnerEnergy=less than InitialRecharge
Pretty simple stuff, try using the descriptions in template.sss for what things do. _________________ This help is informational only. No representation is made or warranty given as to its content.

1.How to get the greens around the safe zoneS! |
If you have one safe zone in the middle (or two small ones, even) just tweak prize:minimumvirtual= till the greens appear where you like (if you have safes out far from the middle your greens will end up rather spread out - which is not necessarily bad)
| ShortyMatt wrote: | | 2.How to increase the amount of greens (prize factor i tink?) |
ya, prize:prizefactor= (10,000 is the supposed max)
| ShortyMatt wrote: | | 3.How to get more of 1 type of green (like thors, supers, etc.) |
prizeweight:thor=
prizeweight:allweapons= (this is super)
fyi...
prizeweight:recharge= (full charge)
prizeweight:quickcharge= (recharge [like in %status])
you basically adjust the ratios - the higher the number compared to the other numbers, the more likely a green will be that (I think )
| ShortyMatt wrote: | | 4.How to prize as a mod (*prize 100 i tink) |
ya, you can use *prize (insertanynumber) to prize large quantities to a player or you can give individual prizes using *prize # (eg "*prize #1)
| ShortyMatt wrote: | | 5.How to get ships to spawn with bombs (certain lvls of bombs) |
ship:initialbombs=
if, for instance, you set it to "1", depending on your ship:initialbounty settings you could end up with lvl 2 or 3 bombs
if, for instance, you want them to spawn with lvl 1 and have the option of getting lvl 2 or 3, you will have to mess around with your prizeweight / initialbounty settings till you get it to work just so (getting lvl 1 almost always on initial spawn)
if you just want the ship to have lvl 1 bombs, period, no other bombs, then just set ship:maxbombs= equal to the same level (eg - ship:initialbombs=1 / ship:maxbombs=1)
| ShortyMatt wrote: | | 6.How to make ships able to use thrust wihout using energy... |
just have ship:afterburnerenergy= set to 0 or something

Before i asked for help i always tried to find on my own. If u would just read the faq at server help site and everything in the esc+c menu, u wouldn't need to create threads eevry day with 10 questions inside each.
And when i created this name i did not intend for people to think that i am cursing. Fudle Pucker means... fudle pucker, not what you thought. naughty naughty miney |
