Use "Control Droid" scripts in your maps!

[GidionTheDead]

If you want to add a controlable droid to you map, just create a "target_scriptrunner" and connect it to whatever trigger you use. Now set its "usescript" variable to "doom_comm/control_droid" and you will be able to control all droids you give the following parameters:

 

"NPC_targetname" "bob1"

"NPC_targetname" "bob2"

"NPC_targetname" "bob3"

"NPC_targetname" "bob4"

"NPC_targetname" "bob5"

 

(The droid with the highest ranking number, bob5, will be controlled first. Only NPC_Droid_xxxx can be controlled with this script.)

 

Use JUMP to return to Kyle.

 

Have fun, take care, and happy mapping!

Does this works in Multiplayer maps ?

[GidionTheDead]

In multiplayer you cannot place NPCs (the droids) thus the script will work, but there will be no droids to control.

Very useful info. Thanks.

I've followed the instructions as given but it seems like I have to keep trying to activate the trigger a couple times before it will finallywork. Is there some way to get it to work all the time on the first try? I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

yea u can do it that way...but theres an easier way....type:

 

npc spawn bot x

 

then:

 

control x

 

 

after npc spawn type the bot that u want (rsd2,mouse,probe...etc..) then after his name hit space and put some letters or nubmers in and type : control then whatever u put after the droids name...u can do this with other things as well( reborns, desann,lando etc...) basically anything u can spawn u can control......

 

type: control kyle

 

to return to kyle, or jsut hit space bar if ur controling a droid

if you want to control other entities, e.g. stormtroopers you can use the command SET_ENTITYVIEW in an ICARUS script. have a look on the command tables in the ICARUS manual given with the second tool pack for further info, also about other pretty cool things like setting the slowmotion or so.
