Script should work

[Loveboy]

Hello Guys, i have the script finished.
But it doesn't work.
Here the script:

tdm.gsc

Callback_StartGameType()
	thread counter();

Callback_PlayerConnect()
{
	thread dummy();

	self.statusicon = "hud_status_connecting";
	self waittill("begin");
	self.statusicon = "";
	self thread freezeMe();

.....
}

And down of the all scripts in tdm.gsc:

counter()
{
	level.counter = 20;
	while(level.counter > 0)
		{
			wait 1;
			level.counter--;
		}
}

freezeMe()
	{
		self endon("disconnect");
		if(level.counter > 0) {
		self freezecontrols(true);
		self thread unfreezeMe();
				}
	}

unfreezeMe()
	{
		self endon("disconnect");
		wait level.counter;
		self freezecontrols(false);
	}

Now if the gametype starts, it will call the thread counter.
This give it a time and go down after a secound.
if somebody connect it will read which secound he is and he will freeze.

But nothing will happend. Somebody know why?

Thanks

		startGametype()
{
    level.freeze = true;
    wait level.counter;
    level.freeze = false;
}

spawnPlayerThread()
{
    self endon("disconnect");
    self endon("killed_player");

    onlyonce = true;

    for (;;)
    {
        if (level.freeze)
        {
            self freezeControls(true);
        }
        else if (onlyonce)
        {
            onlyonce = false;
            self freezeControls(false);
            break;
        }

        wait 1;
    }
}

It doesn't work because you are freezing a player who hasn't spawned. You are doing it on a player who has just connected. I told you this already - player's who haven't spawned can't use their movement keys, so there is no point using freezeControls() on them. You have to do it on a SPAWNED PLAYER.
