Duel 'State' changements :)

[Code]

Greetings

 

i am trying to modify 'a duel' in FFA

 

things i am trying to do :

set the 'duelers' hp and armor on duel start and duel end

disable force usage in duel (disable kick and jump)

 

im new to this , i mean i never coded other mods

ive been trought the "resourse" sticky thread (and links)

and cant seem to find any help, great thread btw

 

what functions should i check for this ? (to make changes)

 

does it have something to do with 'ps.duelInProgress'

maybe not ...ive been looking for a "DUELSTART" function

cant find it

 

thanks alot o greats one

 

edit :

ok i think im getting closer code\game\g_active.c near line 1100

getting warner ?

[Code]

ok i found the interesting part (the end part)

 

 

//Winner gets full health.. providing he's still alive

if (ent->health > 0 && ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_HEALTH] > 0)

{

if (ent->health < ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_MAX_HEALTH])

{

ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_HEALTH] = ent->health = ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_MAX_HEALTH];

}

 

....

 

}

 

can someone point me out about the armor alocating

(winner get 100 shields)

 

ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_ARMOR] = ent->health = ent->client->ps.stats[sTAT_MAX_HEALTH];

 

something like that ?? (dosent really work)

[Code]

ok the hp/armor is thing of the past

 

can someone point out tips

in the goal of disabling kick , jump , push

while in 'duelmode' (in ffa)

 

thanks alot

[Code]

ive disabled the use of push while locking in a duel (in ffa)

 

qboolean WP_ForcePowerAvailable( gentity_t *self, forcePowers_t forcePower )

{

int drain = forcePowerNeeded[self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[forcePower]][forcePower];

 

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowersActive & (1 << forcePower))

{ //we're probably going to deactivate it..

return qtrue;

}

 

if ( forcePower == FP_LEVITATION )

{

return qtrue;

}

if ( !drain )

{

return qtrue;

}

if ( self->client->ps.fd.forcePower < drain )

{

return qfalse;

}

// disabling EVERY force power in a duel

// well i tought i did ....just push ..... y ? HELP ME PLZ

if (self->client->ps.duelInProgress)

{

return qfalse;

}

 

return qtrue;

}

 

i dont get it

jump is still available (i mean 'force' jump)

and kick also

 

plz help

[Commodus]

Don't look at WP_ForcePowerAvailable... go to bg_misc.c and look at qboolean BG_CanUseFPNow() - there's something to do with dueling there.

 

If I'm not mistaken in the section: (line 1313)

 

if (ps->saberLockFrame || ps->saberLockTime > time)
{
	if (power != FP_PUSH)
	{
		return qfalse;
	}
}

 

remove the "!" in "if (power != FP_PUSH) return qfalse;". That should make it work, although be warned that some of the changes that I've made to my source have caused very weird stuff to happen...

[Code]

thanks alot for the reply

 

for the book i think if i do so

i would have disabled push in any saber locking posibility

(ie : ffa , duel , etc)

if (ps->saberLockFrame || ps->saberLockTime > time)

{

if (power != FP_PUSH)

{

return qfalse;

}

if (ps->duelInProgress && power == FP_PUSH)

{

return qfalse;

}

}

 

nyway

i did edit the code in that section

my goal is to make 'nf duel' in a FF FFA

 

so just a liitle above your pointer (thanks again)

if (ps->duelInProgress)

{

//if (power != FP_SABERATTACK && power != FP_SABERDEFEND && /*power != FP_SABERTHROW &&*/power != FP_LEVITATION)

//{

// if (!ps->saberLockFrame || power != FP_PUSH)

// {

// return qfalse;

// }

//}

// no matter what no force in duel

return qfalse;

}

 

simple i though

it did the job ...but lol

now the duelers are jumping like a milimiter high lol (lv0 jump i guess)

 

so i was wondering if u knew how set the force level of a client ?

the thing is i think ill have to stored it (to set it back at what is was before)

 

seeing a better aproach ?

 

thanks

[Commodus]

Try:

if (ps->duelInProgress && power != FP_LEVITATION)

{

return qfalse;

}

 

So any power except for jump (I think that's what levitation is anyway) while dueling will not be allowed.

[Code]

my goal is to make 'nf duel' in a FF FFA

 

so i was wondering if u knew how set the force level of a client ?

 

like i said I WANT EVERY FORCE DISABLED

so its working now

 

except the faq that force jump is at level 0 while they duel

(hard to jump stairs)

 

so how can i limit the use for jump while a duel to lv1 ?

 

(client might b level2 , level3)

[Commodus]

For starters, cut the aggression, and secondly, I don't know, add something like

 

self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] = FORCE_LEVEL_1;

 

somewhere.

[razorace]

The way you stated that, Commodus, it would probably actually change the player's force jump skill level. You don't want that. A better solution would be to limit Force Jump to level 1 inside the actual Force Jump function (I don't know what it's called at the moment). Probably something like....

 

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_1)
//Level 1 jump

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_2)
//Level 2 jump

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_3)
//Level 3 jump

To limit duelers to level 1 you'd change that to something like

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_1)
//Level 1 jump

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_2  && !ps->duelInProgress)
//Level 2 jump

if (self->client->ps.fd.forcePowerLevel[FP_LEVITATION] >= FORCE_LEVEL_3 && !ps->duelInProgress)
