Multiplayer Game with no Shields?

[andywebs]

Is there a way to start the server so that Shield packs aren't in the game? I'd like to restrict it to health only.

I haven't tried it out myself, but if the Q3 way of disabling items works the way you'd expect it to in JK2, the command would look like this:

 

set disable_item_shield_sm_instant 1

set disable_item_shield_lrg_instant 1

 

You could put them back using:

 

set disable_item_shield_sm_instant 0

set disable_item_shield_lrg_instant 0

 

Theoretically, this should work for every individual item type in the game. I haven't taken the time to test it since I never felt like disabling them. If someone wants to try it out and let us know if it works the way we'd expect, that would be fantastic. Otherwise, I'll test it out myself, later.

tried it using seta, then a map_restart, seems to work just fine

Well, it's always nice to see something work the way one expects. So far, there's a lot of things I WISH worked the way they were supposed to.

I turned my ctf server into a saber only server, but also added in the sentry and drone. In the process a whole slew of ammo got added in as well. The above info helped me to finally remove all that extraneous ammo.

 

Great info, and thanks!

I really enjoy it when I get to hear that my knowledge is being put to use and enjoyed.
