Staredit Network -> UMS Assistance -> Ammo system?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by oKaY on 2005-02-02 at 11:31:46
I wanted to try an ammo system like from the SWAT map on one of my own. I saw one in the tutorial section, but I dont think that will stop you from shooting, and I also dont want players allied with the enemy... Is there a way to actually stop a playerfrom shooting? Someone help with this trigger please.

The only way to make a player stop shooting another is constantly ordering his units to move or attack a location or making him constantly allied with the one you don't want him to attack.

Why don't you like using alliance?

If it's a hyper trigger alliance, it won't matter.

One other option for making them stop shooting is replacing the unit. or instance if u want a marine to run out of ammo once their don you culd replace em with a civilian. or you could replace em with a unit that only does like 1 damage, so the shooting effect doesnt work too well. this method would only work if you had only 1 unit that is firing though...

Ok, thanks. What I think I want to do is when the person shoots, I'll have obs or something be progressively exploding, is there a way to do that without having to kill a unit? I dont want a unit to have to die in 1 hit... :/

I don't quite understand. Do you want an observer to explode every time a unit fires? (not possible) Or do you want an observer exploding everytime a player uses 1 ammo? (just do it when you decrease his ammo amount)

i see what he means, u know the dodgeball games? thats what he wants but he doesnt want it to kill with one hit

ADDITION:
oh and to answer your question, no you cant make it subtract health, pinch.gif you can only make it modify their health.
