multikills

Post by Clutch152 »

Hello again everyone :D I have most of my mod finished and it includes such things as killingsprees, deathsprees, flak monkeys, and basic gag commands from etadmin(most of em). The thing I am not certain how to attempt is multikills. The only thing that stands in my way of that is how to make it counts 3 seconds and if they get another kill within 3 seconds then it starts the 3 seconds over again and so on and so on.

I guess I am trying to make this so those people that have windows servers and cant install etadmin mod can have some sense of the fun stuff.

Thx again everyone :D

I was under the impression that etadmin_mod can be made to work in windows. http://et.d1p.de/etadmin_mod/wiki/index ... th_Windows

Anyway, assuming you want to finish your mod, are you writing it as an etpro lua mod or a gamecode mod ?

From lua, you can do any periodic actions from et_RunFrame. That also gives you the level time, which is in milliseconds.

etadmin mod can be run in windows but some server hosting companies dont like the applications that makes it possible. I know Nuclear Fallout servers cannot run etadmin mod.

This is a .lua script and I am pretty much making to help etadmin mod so it doesnt get bogged down but useless crap so it can focus mainly on the stuff needed.

If I were to use et_RunFrame then wouldn't the leveltime always be changing? I believe what I need for this is something to get the time remaing in the game and inprint it into a variable that only captures the leveltime when called to and not every server frame. Otherwise if you tried to do any math with it you'd always get the same answer and not a countdown, correct?

Yes, you have to do something with leveltime after you grab it.

Keep the current level time using et_RunFrame. When you detect a kill, record who got the kill at what time, using a table that is indexed on client number, for example. The next time you detect a kill, compare the current time with the last time that player got a kill.

ok so if it were to be like this:

Code: Select all

multikill=0
function et_Obituary( victim, killer, meansOfDeath )
      local kill1=""
      local kill2=""

      multikill=multikill+1

      if (multikill==1) then
            kill1=et_RunFrame( levelTime )
      elseif (multikill==2) then
            kill2=et_RunFrame( levelTime )

            if &#40;&#40;kill2-kill1&#41;<=3000&#41; then
                  blah blah blah doublekill!
            else
                  multikill=0
            end
      end
end
Would a code like this work?

not the way its intended to.

you need one multikill-counters per player.

one way would be

Code: Select all

function et_Obituary&#40; victim, killer, meansOfDeath &#41;
    lastkilltime&#91;killer&#93; = 300 --set the time im milisecs until its kills will nolonger count as multykill
end

function et_RunFrame&#40;leveltime&#41;
    for client=0,64,1 do
        if lastkilltime&#91;client&#93; then --if it isnt 0
            lastkilltime&#91;client&#93; = lastkilltime&#91;cleint&#93; - 1 --decrease it whit 1
        else --if it is 0 thne his timer ran out
            et.G_Print&#40;"Client killed .. ppl"&#41;
        end
    end
end
but this will go over all clients each frame so might use a lot of cpu the other way is to check it at the killslike this

Code: Select all

function et_Obituary&#40; victim, killer, meansOfDeath &#41;
    currenttime = et.trap_Milliseconds&#40;&#41; --set the time at witch his 
last kill happent

    if &#40;currenttime - lastkilltime&#91;killer&#93;&#41; < 3000 then --if the kill happent whitin 3000 milisecs
        lastkilltime&#91;killer&#93; = currenttime --reset his killig time
        --count the kill for the multikill
    else
        et.G_Print&#40;"Client ".. killer .."has killed .. ppl"&#41;
        --his timer expired so count the current kills and print out the mesage and start counting at 1 again
    end 
end
the big prob whit this is that it will only conut thek il when a kill of that player happets so if he doesnt kill for a wehile the multykill message will not apear until his next kil and theryby sux.

Still working on how to make it all reset when the player disconnects but the et_ClientDisconnect( clientNum ) doesnt seem to like me very much.
[*EDIT*] Nevermind I figured this out just now aswell.

the killingspree0, flakkillse0, multikill0, deathspree0 have a number at the end to indicate player slot number for whoever is editing the code. You may notice that some of the varialbes and functions have a random "e" at the end before the number, I did that to make it easier to use the replace tool in wordpad.
me == lazy again

Now I read that when you have a local variable outside a function and then the variable is used in the function its called a upvalue. Does this mean that the value that is used in the function not valid outside the function?

Please be patient with me, I have only started learning this script 2 days ago lol and I wanna be a programmer but I hate school :D

I tried to make your code work for all players, i'm just as much a lua nab, but i think i got the syntax right, except maybe the array initializations.

Code: Select all

mkillcount=0
mkilltime=0
killspree=0
deathspree=0

That's a little rude. Like I said, I only started like 2 days ago.

To do what you want to do, you need to understand tables and loops. Doing it any other way is insane, and no one will want to help you with the resulting code. There are lots of people here willing to help you, but very few who will just do the project for you.

If you've never done any coding before, you have a lot to learn. That's OK, many people have taught themselves, but you do have to accept that it is going to take quite a bit of time and effort.

I strongly suggest looking at the examples available on the wiki http://wolfwiki.anime.net/index.php/Category:ETPro:Mods Many of them do things like what you are trying to do.

I'm sorry if my response seemed rude. You obviously have put a lot of work into your script, but you need to pick up some more of the basics before you can use it effectively.
Now I read that when you have a local variable outside a function and then the variable is used in the function its called a upvalue. Does this mean that the value that is used in the function not valid outside the function?
You only have to worry about upvalues if you are defining functions inside of functions, which you most certainly do not want to be doing at this point.

In addition to the manual, there is an online version of the book Programming in Lua which takes a more tutorial approach.

Yea I'm only 19 and have only had 1 liberty basic programming class but I usually learn pretty quick and dont expect anyone to do anything for me such is the way of the pessimist. I already have been looking at codes from that site and have been looking at the EtPower mod for some refrences. Ive actually got the code pretty much finished without loops of any sort but I had to make 2 functions for every player slot for the kills and the deaths. I've currently got it up to 32 slots :D I've just got some small tweaking to do.

After I get it working the way I need it I'll revise it with tables and loops and such fanciness.

I thank you mr. ReyalP for your help.
