Non-Killing Zone?!

[AgentSmyth]

How do you make a part in your map where you cannot kill another person!?

[Dae]

Thats easy.

Both ways require zoning.

First way: add a standard ZoneInfo (Info > ZoneInfo) actor and change boolean variable bNeutralZone to true in its properties. To say truth, I haven't tested this way in Deus Ex, but it works fine in Unreal Tournament.

The second way is to make your own zone with the following code:

Code: Select all

class SafeZone extends ZoneInfo;

event ActorEntered( actor Other )
{
   Super.ActorEntered(Other);
   if(Other.isA('Pawn'))
   {
      Pawn(Other).ReducedDamageType = 'All';
   }
}

event ActorLeaving( actor Other )
{
   Super.ActorLeaving(Other);
   if(Other.isA('Pawn'))
   {
      Pawn(Other).ReducedDamageType = '';
   }
}
defaultproperties
{
}

Hope that helps!

thanx alot....

i'd place the super call at the end of the function
because if in the code of the super class is a return your code won't be executed

Nobody, the code works.
But, well, i either don't understand why super call is in the beginning of each event.

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

yes in this example it does
and depending what it is you need to set to at the begin or somewhere else
i didn't say always place it at the end

I kinda made my own version, not working perfect, it also deletes weapons outside the zone :S
Some things are obvious like if DeusExPlayer = Pawn, but i don't care

Code: Select all

class SafeZone extends ZoneInfo;

event ActorEntered( actor DeusExPlayer )
{
      local Pawn p;
      local Inventory Inv;
   Super.ActorEntered(DeusExPlayer);
   if(DeusExPlayer.isA('Pawn'))
   {
            foreach AllActors(class'Inventory', Inv)
            {
                  if (Inv.Owner == p && Inv.PickupViewMesh != None && Inv.PickupViewMesh != LodMesh'DeusExItems.TestBox'
                  && !Inv.IsA('NanoKey') && !Inv.IsA('NanoKeyRing') && !Inv.IsA('WeaponNPCRanged') && !Inv.IsA('WeaponNPCMelee') && Inv.IsA('Weapon'))
                     {
                        Inv.Destroy();
}
}
                                                               Pawn(DeusExPlayer).ReducedDamageType = 'All';

            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthHead     = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthTorso    = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthLegLeft  = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthLegRight = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthArmLeft  = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthArmRight = 100;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).Health         = 100;
   }
}

event ActorLeaving( actor DeusExPlayer )
{
   Super.ActorLeaving(DeusExPlayer);
   if(DeusExPlayer.isA('Pawn'))
   {
      Pawn(DeusExPlayer).ReducedDamageType = '';
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthHead     = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthTorso    = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthLegLeft  = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthLegRight = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthArmLeft  = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).HealthArmRight = 60;
            Pawn(DeusExPlayer).Health         = 60;
   }
}
defaultproperties
{
}

tis k i now have another problem....can u get nano keys to work in multiplayer?
i must seem like such a n00b

[Alex]

No, i don't think so, then you need to bind a lot of things to a mutator, perhaps you can make a super key that can open all movers but i don't think that you can use the nanokey system

[AgentSmyth]

that really messes up things for my map!

Edit: Wait! you know the way the MP coding is different that the SP coding and so somethings cant work, would it be possible to remake the key, so the multiplayer codes would understand?!

[Bob]

We have made an MP keypad. Feel free to find it and use it. Courtesy of Nobody of course

[kBo]

He's asking for nanokeys, not keypads.

[Bob]

Oh, misread. Sorry

[AgentSmyth]

tis k....i dont think it can be done...by me anyway....i finished my map using a keypad instead

[Alistair]

He's asking for nanokeys, not keypads.

No, he wants lockpicks >=D

[AlexDenton]

Someone can code one, I'm sure.

All it takes is the binding of a conditional mover to the key.

[AgentSmyth]

well i wont be able to code it...the best i can do is create a custom txt file that can be used in a datacube/newspaper/book and it doesnt even work in multiplayer
