camping humans

DesasterUK · Post by **DesasterUK** » Sun Jul 23, 2006 3:25 pm

just a question
is it possible to make humans more visible if they camp for a specified time?
e.g. 10 secs camping = half visible

or if they camp for 10 secs they will be more and more visible
just like a campmeter specally for humans

@ Krazy:
It sounds like u will try to code it?

maybe it can be released like an "addon" for war3ft.
i don't think that all players or admins will like this feature.

all you'd have to do is steal the code from the "campmeter" plugin and when it reaches X%, it makes the person completely visible and says "your invisibility is gone" or something =)

I cannot code. All I can do is edit and tweak code. I am also good at finding out peoples problems and giving them help.

Something will be done to combat this... I'm not sure yet what... I was thinking more along the lines of losing some health/money after camping too long while invis

lol how about making them glow and dealing 30% damage if they sit in one area for X seconds, with a cvar in the war3FT.cfg file for it to be on/off, and another one for if on, this many seconds before they're boned. You might want to check the code in the campmeter plugin because they make it work if you move a tiny bit, it doesn't count for anything. you have to move around a fair amount to stop it.

Second thought after re-reading my post...douchebag server ops might set the cvar to 2 seconds or something...maybe just set it at 20-30 seconds or something and if they want to change it they can edit it and recompile =)

Speaking of compiling, can somebody give me a link to a helpful tutorial on compiling with amxx, or maybe some basics on how it works? Thanks =)

I'm not sure, but don't humans become more invisible if they camp with a knife and don't move? You should just make them more visible if they camp too long. If you want to make them glow and lose health and stuff, then just get some other mod or something out there that puts like a big sign over your head and you start losing health. Isn't camping part of cs though?
