Scripting

[Mindblade]

Let's see...

 

Some of you may know me from RTCWcentral. If not, hi.

 

Since JK2 is on the Q3 engine, the same basic scripting format should work here too, right? For example, bind x "weaponbank 1" would bind x to weaponbank 1. This is just a simple script. Here's an example of my more complex work for RtCW:

//menu

 

bind 1 "bind 2 vstr script1; bind 3 vstr script2; bind 4 vstr script3; bind 5 vstr script4; bind 6 vstr script5; vstr scriptm

set scriptm "echo ^1[1: Main Menu]^2[2: Incoming]^3[3: Movement]^4[4:Alerts]^5[5:Global]^2[6:Function]"

 

//Incoming

set script1 "bind 2 say_team Lone enemy inbound; bind 3 say_team 2-3 enemy inbound; bind 4 say_team 4+ enemy inbound; bind 5 say_team Enemy Respawning; bind 6 say_team Enemy Regrouping; vstr script1a"

set script1a "echo ^1[1: Main Menu]^2[2: 1 NME]^3[3: 2-3 NME]^4[4: 4+ NME]^5[5: Respawn]^6[6: Regroup]"

 

//Movement

set script2 "bind 2 say_team Let's Regroup/Hold; bind 3 say_team I'm Moving Into Position; bind 4 say_team I'm Ready to Attack; bind 5 say_team Locked & Loaded; bind 6 say_team Go Go Go!; vstr script2a"

set script2a "echo ^1[1:Main Menu]^2[2: Regroup]^3[3:movingtopos]^4[4:RdyAtk]^5[5:L&L]^6[6:Go Go!]"

 

//Alerts

set script3 "bind 2 say_team Let's Spread out, watch for panzers!; bind 3 say_team Find the Sniper!; bind 4 say_team Watch for Snipers!; vstr script3a"

set script3a "echo ^1[1:Main Menu]^2[2:Spread Out]^4[3:FindSniper]^5[4:Watch4Snipers]"

 

//Global

set script4 "bind 2 vsay Hi; bind 3 vsay Bye; bind 4 vsay GreatShot; bind 5 vsay GoodGame; vstr script4a"

set script4a "echo ^1[1:Main Menu]^2[2:Hi]^3[3:Bye]^4[4:Great Shot]^5[5:Good Game]"

 

//Function

set script5 "bind 2 vsay_team IamSoldier; bind 3 vsay_team IamMedic; bind 4 vsay_team IamLieutenant; bind 5 vsay_team IamEngineer; vstr script5a"

set script5a "echo ^1[1:Main menu]^2[2:Soldier]^3[3:Medic]^4[4:LT]^5[5:Engineer]"

 

 

So, in summary, will the basic scripting format for Q3/RtCW work in JK2?

Yup, I've already tested my EF autoexec.cfg settings in JKO. I just wish that Raven would provide an Example and FAQ for us to learn the JKO specifics. My last plea went unaswered.

yea all the scripting works as normal.... but what i want to know is how to script a way to toggle between 2 force powers being selected. i can set it up so that 2 forcepowers toggle being activated... but that doesn't work well... i only want to toggle them being selected so i can use them whenever i want.

 

ex:

bind q vstr w_groupa

bind e vstr w_groupb

bind r vstr w_groupc

bind f vstr w_groupd

 

set wgroupareset "set w_groupb vstr w_groupb1; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc1;set w_groupd vstr w_groupd1"

set wgroupbreset "set w_groupa vstr w_groupa1; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc1;set w_groupd vstr w_groupd1"

set wgroupcreset "set w_groupa vstr w_groupa1;set w_groupb vstr w_groupb1;set w_groupd vstr w_groupd1"

set wgroupdreset "set w_groupa vstr w_groupa1;set w_groupb vstr w_groupb1; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc1"

 

set w_groupa1 "force_heal;force_throw; set w_groupa vstr w_groupa2; vstr wgroupareset"

set w_groupa2 "force_throw;force_heal; set w_groupa vstr w_groupa1; vstr wgroupareset"

 

set w_groupb1 "force_protect;force_absorb; set w_groupb vstr w_groupb2; vstr wgroupbreset"

set w_groupb2 "force_absorb;force_protect; set w_groupb vstr w_groupb1; vstr wgroupbreset"

 

set w_groupc1 "force_speed;force_pull; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc2; vstr wgroupcreset"

set w_groupc2 "force_pull;force_speed; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc1; vstr wgroupcreset"

 

set w_groupd1 "weapon 1;weapon 10; set w_groupd vstr w_groupd2; vstr wgroupdreset"

set w_groupd2 "weapon 10;weapon 1; set w_groupd vstr w_groupd1; vstr wgroupdreset"

 

// Initialization

set w_groupa vstr w_groupa1; set w_groupb vstr w_groupb1; set w_groupc vstr w_groupc1;set w_groupd vstr w_groupd1
