Event Idea - Zone Control #8

Open BirkHappens opened 9 years ago

BirkHappens commented 9 years ago

This would be VERY LOW priority.. .maybe something to consider in the very distant future... but wanted to throw it out there regardless.

What if we ported over the "zone control" idea from popular FPS games. You have points A, B, and C and your team has to capture and hold these points to win. Almost like KOTR, but with more than one area. Not sure if this would work in pub or not... might be a standalone event idea...

This sounds really interesting and I can't deny the thought did cross my mind yesterday. This is a big undertaking, though, as the zone map would have to also be prepared for this kind of contest. Are we able to get Wormhole Surfer in here?

No dev necessary, as I understand - @TheJunky, who's got the necessary access levels to setup a test zone? Can we delegate this to someone for tests to then port over and code an event for the bot(s)?

TheJunky commented 9 years ago

someone has to make a turf map, then it just needs to be uploaded and the flagmode has to be changed in settings

@TheJunky, who are the people that have the skills/knowledge to tackle this?

Wormhole-Surfer commented 9 years ago

I was actually already planning on making a map for a completely new turf event but have been procrastinating, so this is perfect.

I'm thinking 2 even teams and 3-5 turf flags.

What bot are you going to use to declare the winner? Without a bot, it's just an infinite turf war.

Wormhole-Surfer commented 9 years ago

Rek, we could just upload the .lvl, .lvz. and .cfg with no bot and set the game to have a time limit. If we configure the point reward settings (both for flag rewards and player kills) correctly, when the time runs out, subspace will display the top 5 point scorers on the winning team only (the winning team being the team that had the most control over the flags during the game). You could then manually prize the top 3 players from that list.

Just need to set the periodic flag reward to something like 1,000 and then points for individual kills to something miniscule like 1, so that just running around fraying won't win you a prize unless your team also controls enough flags to get the big points.
