Revival of the few zombie during the reboot.

Hey all.
I don't know how to make to the restart there was more than one zombie, I would like to do to the amount of zombies grow depending on the number of hunters, as well as the NoDL.
The second problem is that when join the second player when you type in console,, kill'' is the restart round. I tried to do so by attaching the second player to the game, there was a restart. But to no avail... :confused:

Please help me.

PHP Code:

---

checkRestart(zombie)
{
    numonteam["allies"] = 0;
    numonteam["axis"] = 0;
    
    players = getentarray("player", "classname");
    for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
    {
        player = players[i];

         if(!isDefined(player.pers["team"]) || player.pers["team"] == "spectator" || (isPlayer(self) && self.sessionstate == "playing"))
            continue;

        numonteam[player.pers["team"]]++;
    }
    
    if(numonteam["allies"] == 0 && (numonteam["axis"] != 0 && numonteam["axis"] != 1)) // Restart the round if the server has more than one zombies
    {
        if(isDefined(zombie) && isPlayer(zombie))
        {
            axisPlayer = zombie;
        }
        else
        {
            axisPlayer = players[randomint(players.size)];
        }
        
        for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
        {
            player = players[i];
            
            if(!isDefined(player.pers["team"]) || player.pers["team"] == "spectator")
                continue;
            
            player thread showText(&"ZOM_ROUND_RESTART");


            if (player == axisPlayer)
            {
                player thread movePlayer("axis", 2);
            }
            else
            {
                player thread movePlayer("allies", 4);
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

zombie = self;

The last few hunters will be the new zombies. So you need to:
- save the time of hunter-deaths: if (player.pers["team"] == "allies") player.lastDeath = getTime()
- on roundrestart, sort the players-array by player.lastDeath
- calculate the number of new zombies, e.g. n=1+int(players.size/4)
- make first n elements of the sorted array zombies, the other ones hunters

What is the function check: if (player.pers["team"] == "allies") player.lastDeath = getTime() ?? Why is this necessary ?

Because you need to know which hunters died last (so you can make them zombies).

I have no idea how to do it, could you help me write it? I do not demand from you a finished script, but directing in the right direction.

He sat a little with the script at night and I wrote something like this:

PHP Code:

---

checkRestart(zombie,axisPlayer)
{
    numonteam["allies"] = 0;
    numonteam["axis"] = 0;
    
    players = getentarray("player", "classname");
    for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
    {
        player = players[i];

        if(!isDefined(player.pers["team"]) || player.pers["team"] == "spectator" || (isPlayer(self) && self.sessionstate == "playing") && (isPlayer(self) && self.pers["team"] == "spectator"))
            continue;
        
        numonteam[player.pers["team"]]++;
    }
    
    if ((numonteam["allies"] == 0) && (numonteam["axis"] > 1))
    {
        if(isDefined(zombie) && isPlayer(zombie))
        {
            j = 0;
            if (players.size%2 == 0)
            {
                j = int((players.size/2)-1);
                iprintlnbold("Wynik = "+j);
            } 
            else
            {
                j = int((players.size/2));
                iprintlnbold("Wynik2 = "+j);
            }
            
            for(i=j; i; i--)
            {
                //axisPlayer = zombie;
                axisPlayer = players[randomint(players.size)];
                //iprintlnbold("Last Death Allies: "+self.lastDeath);
                //iprintlnbold("Wynik3 = "+randomint(players.size));
            }
        }
        else
        {
            axisPlayer = players[randomint(players.size)];
        }
        
        for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
        {
            player = players[i];
            
            if(!isDefined(player.pers["team"]) || player.pers["team"] == "spectator")
                continue;
            
            player thread showText(&"ZOM_ROUND_RESTART");
            
            if (player == axisPlayer)
            {
                player thread movePlayer("axis", 2);
            }
            else
            {
                player thread movePlayer("allies", 4);
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

In Callback_PlayerKilled i add:

if (self.pers["team"] == "allies") self.lastDeath = getTime();

But i don't know how use self.lastDeath...

Now you just need to sort player.lastDeath (in my script i named it different) and spawn the sorted players:

PHP Code:

---


            players = getActivePlayers(); // axis/allies
            sorted = sort(players, ::isPlayerAlongerHunterAsB); // the first entries are the players was most hunters (=new start zombies)

            // example:
            // players: 10
            // numberOfNewZombies = 1 + int(10/4) = 3
            // hunters: for (i=numbersOfNewZombies; i<sorted.size; i++)


            // spawn the hunters FIRST...
            for (i=numberOfNewZombies; i<sorted.size; i++)
            {
                hunter = sorted[i];
                hunter roundRestart("allies");
            }

            // spawn the zombies (near the hunters then)...
            for (i=0; i<numberOfNewZombies; i++)
            {
                zombie = sorted[i];
                zombie roundRestart("axis", " ^7"+(i+1)+"^1/^7"+numberOfNewZombies);
            } 


---

PHP Code:

---


isPlayerAlongerHunterAsB(a, b)
{
    if (a.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter > b.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter)
        return 1;
    else
        return 0;
}

// sample-function for sort()
a_bigger_b(a, b)
{
    if (a > b)
        return 1;
    else
        return 0;
}

// slow, but works... cba for quicksort now
sort(elements, isAbiggerB)
{
    for (i=0; i<elements.size; i++)
    {
        for (j=i+1; j<elements.size; j++)
        {
            //if (elements[i] < elements[j])
            if (
                ! // big to small...
                [[isAbiggerB]](elements[i], elements[j])
            )
            {
                // swap
                tmp = elements[j];
                elements[j] = elements[i];
                elements[i] = tmp;
            }
        }
    }

    return elements;
}

getActivePlayers()
{
    players = getentarray("player", "classname");
    tmp = [];
    for (i=0; i<players.size; i++)
    {
        player = players[i];
        if (player.pers["team"] == "axis" || player.pers["team"] == "allies")
            tmp[tmp.size] = player;
    }
    return tmp;
}

Get the Last Man Standing gametype from the AWE mod for COD2. There is a very simple method in there for checking for the last player alive.

Back in 2006 I did an "infected" gametype called Hitman for COD2. Basically, the gametype starts with 1 hitman, 1 commander, and the rest are guards who are supposed to protect the commander. As the hitman kills the guards, they turn into hitmen. Change the name "Hitman" to "infected" and you have the same thing: as the "infected" (= hitman) kills the guards, they become infected themselves. So, the gametype uses a method to increase the size of hitmen/infected exponentially. Which is what you were looking for.

Download Hitman gametype for COD2 here:

******* script runtime error *******
pair 'undefined' and 'undefined' has unmatching types 'undefined' and 'undefined': (file 'files/zom.gsc', line 2107)
if (a.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter > b.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter)
*

I have error.. idk why... ;/

Instead of player.lastDeath write now:

PHP Code:

---

if (player.pers["team"] == "allies")
    player.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter = getTime(); 


---

BTW dont forget to set player.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter = 0 in callback_playerconnect(), otherwise it will crash with undefined-int-unmatching-type-error.

Add to Callback_PlayerConnect:

PHP Code:

---

if (player.pers["team"] == "allies")
    player.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter = getTime(); 


---

??

No, that goes to Callback_PlayerKilled().




Callback_PlayerConnect: player.lastTimeOfDeathAsHunter = 0;

I kill the last hunter, do i not turn into the hunter ;/
The last hunter is killed, the team moved ,, axis'', then after a while ,,allies''.

How to repair ?

Did you commented your old hunter-becomes-zombie-logic out?

How do I comment on this?

Its different for every zombie-mod, most ppl put the logic directly in Callback_PlayerKilled (who wrote that part for your mod?).

I hate to rain on anyone's parade, but if you can't script, or are very new to it, you should not be attempting to write a whole zombie gametype script. You should learn to walk before you try to run. Gametypes are for the very advanced only.
