Why post to Jab when he has been banned (permanently, 20 points) from your forums, and not allowed to reply?

Not sure man, like you i'm unskilled in the realms of programming... Perhaps you could seek some help in the modding section on the forums for map making. The TileZed program seems pretty versatile and fairly intuitive to use.

^this is a sweet idea

This is seriously cool. If you wanna get it done, we'll happily put it on the server Pretty sure old texture items still work...

Turn fire damage and fire spread off for starters.

Somewhat

ok nevermind again. Changed the event trigger from OnPlayerUpdate to OnTick and it works flawlessly.

oh nevermind, i know what it is now Critical hits are taking player health past the trigger of <= 10 health, but the game is still managing to somehow transport the player back with full health but also having triggered the removal of the UI. Is there any better trigger to catch the player, or prevent death? Thanks

Hey there, I've been working on a mod that grabs the player before death, teleports and heals them. The problem I keep experiencing is that sometimes when the player is teleported back to their headquarters, the whole HUD disappears (except the little icons on the top left stay, but unusable) and the escape key stops working etc. Please help. I have no idea what could be happening. respawnMod = respawnMod or {}; local i = 0; function respawnMod.chooseTeam(_keyPressed) -- This function allows the player to choose their team. local key = _keyPressed; if i == 0 then if key == 67 then -- F9 to choose team getPlayer():Say("Press F5 to join POLICE or F6 to join ROBBERS") end end if i == 0 then if key == 63 then -- F5 Teleports the player to the POLICE Headquarters getPlayer():Say("Team chosen - POLICE"); i = i + 1; if i == 1 then local player = getPlayer(); player:getX(); player:getY(); player:setX(11883); player:setY(6910); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end end if i == 0 then if key == 64 then -- F6 Teleports player to ROBBERS Headquarters getPlayer():Say("Team chosen - ROBBERS"); i = i + 2; if i == 2 then local player = getPlayer(); player:getX(); player:getY(); player:setX(11827); player:setY(6869); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end end if i == 2 then if key == 64 then -- F6 getPlayer():Say("To quit, press F8"); end end if i == 1 then if key == 63 then -- F5 getPlayer():Say("To quit, press F8"); end end if i == 1 then if key == 66 then -- F8 i = i + 2; getPlayer():getBodyDamage():RestoreToFullHealth(); getPlayer():Say("CopsNRobbers mode off - careful, you can die now."); end end if i == 2 then if key == 66 then -- F8 i = i + 1; getPlayer():getBodyDamage():RestoreToFullHealth(); getPlayer():Say("CopsNRobbers mode off - careful, you can die now."); end end if key == 38 then local positionX = getPlayer():getX(); local positionY = getPlayer():getY(); print("X = " .. positionX .. " Y = " .. positionY); end end function respawnMod.teleportBase()--POLICE local player = getPlayer(); if i == 0 or i == 1 or i == 3 then local positionX = player:getX(); local positionY = player:getY(); if positionX == 11886.5 then if positionY == 6912.5 then player:setX(11913); player:setY(6948); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end end if i == 0 or i == 2 or i == 3 then local positionX = player:getX(); local positionY = player:getY(); if positionX == 11822.5 then if positionY == 6870.5 then player:setX(11797); player:setY(6877); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end end end function respawnMod.playerHealth() local player = getPlayer(); local bodyDamage = player:getBodyDamage(); local health = bodyDamage:getHealth(); if i == 1 then -- POLICE if health <= 10 then getPlayer():getBodyDamage():RestoreToFullHealth(); player:setX(11883); player:setY(6910); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end if i == 2 then -- ROBBERS if health <= 10 then getPlayer():getBodyDamage():RestoreToFullHealth(); player:setX(11827); player:setY(6869); player:setLx(player:getX()); player:setLy(player:getY()); end end end Events.OnKeyPressed.Add(respawnMod.chooseTeam); Events.OnPlayerUpdate.Add(respawnMod.teleportBase); Events.OnPlayerUpdate.Add(respawnMod.playerHealth);

Hi guys, just to clarify, I had never intended to do anything without seeking permission. Looks like my thought on things was well beyond the scope of possibility then. Thanks for the advice guys, I do appreciate it

Blindcoder is smart i like what you've suggested, perhaps you could connect us with someone who could help the server admins pull of such a spectacular feat? Or suggest a place to begin research? (asking on behalf of someone without their knowledge here ). Thanks guys,

I have had a thought on the way the workshop works and think this may be a useful suggestion. Whenever any mod releases an update, the client is forced to download the most recent version of the mod from the workshop but the server doesn't instruct the client which version it should have, so by default the most up to date version is forced upon the client. This ultimately means that there are very regular intervals at which I and many others can't log into Zeeks, and while Zeek is awesome at keeping things up to date, he must be allowed to live and sleep, and as it currently operates, I feel it is unfair to everyone involved (players, server admins, devs, mod makers). I propose a simple solution that can make it all work seamlessly. (forgive me for not understanding the level of work that'll probably be required to pull this off). Please give this some consideration. Why not make it that the server tells the client which mod version to download rather than the workshop telling the client. Currently this is making it impossible to join due to mismatches in files after a new mod version release until the server restarts and updates. There are many benefits to not only the server and the servers players, but the game as a whole, because it's really annoying getting locked out every day or two because one of the mods gets an update (which happens all the time). Please allow the server to dictate the mod version in play. I don't mean that the server's admin should be able to select the mod version it serves indefinitely, but only that the client not be forced to download the most recent mod update before the server has. i.e. the server should always be forced to apply the most recent mods upon restart and update, but this would allow for the server owner to schedule regular restarts at designated times that wouldn't interrupt server operation for more than a couple of minutes. Working like this the community could also know when the server is to restart. This change to the way workshop operates would ensure smooth reliable operation of the whole system and would allow everyone to enjoy all the great things the developers and modders have worked so hard on for us to enjoy. BTW massive thanks to modders and games devs, too much guys, so awesome. Sincerely,Azzmunch/Grumpy

Hey guys, is there any way to force a server to update when you release a new version? Or alternatively, is there some way to give admins the ability to remotely initiate a server to update?

Thanks a bunch It is, but i'm alone

So how do i launch the game non-steam enabled? Can't see Zeeks in the server list and don't seem to see any option to disable the steam integration. Please help Thanks
