Tank speed and enable cheats

Post by GooGle »

Hi,
I have another question. How can u change the speed of the tank in Goldrush, Fueldump or any other map with a tank in it?


Next:
How can u enable cheats if u are Rcon. I tried /rcon sv_cheats 1 (because i found sv_cheats in the cvarlist) but it says: sv_cheats is read-only (or something :P)

I know some ET cheats like /god, /noclip but they dont work unless u enable them :roll: .

To change the speed of the tank (and/or other vehicles), use the setting
b_moverscale, for example set b_moverscale 1.5 will make it rather much faster, enough to bring the truck from the bank to "home" in 10 seconds on Goldrush :D

well, there's more than one way to do it.

personally, i prefer doing /rcon forcecvar sv_cheats 1 -- this doesn't cause a map restart, and is generally easier to do... also, to turn them off is easier to, it's just /rcon forcecvar sv_cheats 0 -- the people with god mode will keep it etc until they kill themselves, so keep that in mind.

the tank speeds can be changed by b_moverscale -- it's 1.0 by default, so you do .5 to make it slower, or 2 to make it faster.

the best way to do this is to make per-map configs for each config file... for example, if i think i want a fast tank on fuel dump, but i would rather a slow tank on goldrush, i might do this:

mapdefault.cfg
b_moverscale 1

mapdefault_goldrush.cfg
b_moverscale 0.3

mapdefault_fueldump.cfg
b_moverscale 1.5

it's easy to do, just play around with it and i'm sure you'll get the hang of it.

Ok thnx! But I change the tank speed with: /rcon g_moverscale

But thats ingame.

Is there a way to set tankspeed to 0 ? so the tank doesnt move at all?
When i type: /rcon g_moverscale 0 it just stays on the last value it was on. :S
