[Resolved] Race script for events
« on: 11 01, 2013, 03:55:12 pm »
The new EM panel is great and you are able to create a lot of different, new events. However with the new ability to make new, unique events I have noticed somethings missing. A good, working race script where you are able to place a bunch of checkpoints.
Races is always fun but if you want to make a race you can't really pick the route which should be driven yourself as an EM and you can only do races from one point to another on the map or have to put out barriers around the desired route which takes a really long time.

The general idea I had about the race script is that EM's should have a command (only able to be used in the event dim) such as /placecp which places a checkpoint, if you type it again it creates another checkpoint etc. and when you have placed out the desired amount of checkpoints you would type /placegoal or similar which puts out the goal marker.

The first checkpoint could be indicated on the minimap as a red dot or similar and when you drive through it the next checkpoint you placed out after the first one gets blipped out and keeps going like that til the goal which could be blipped out as a trophy icon or similar.
When the first, second and third player hits the goal marker a message could be printed out in the chat saying "name is the first/second/third over the finish line!" which will ease out for the EM when he's going to pay the winner(s).

The EM should also be able to remove the checkpoints with a command when the event is over, for an example using /deletecp.

With this addition of a racing script you can make really cool events, like a flying car race, stunting with airplanes under bridges or just a regular regular street race! Only your imagination would set the limit.

Thoughts?
