Description: Setting up Client side and FGD

This part of the tutorial will show you how to setup the client side and the FGD for the CTF Gamerules.

NOTE: This code will need modifying to suit your team system,ect so don't take this as a complete C&P (which it basically is).

Open up hl_events.cpp and find the following:
void EV_TripmineFire( struct event_args_s *args );
and put this after it:

	CODE
	void EV_Flag( struct event_args_s *args );

Next, in the same file, find:
gEngfuncs.pfnHookEvent( "events/tripfire.sc", EV_TripmineFire );
and after it put this:

	CODE
	gEngfuncs.pfnHookEvent( "events/object.sc", EV_Flag );

Next, in ev_hldm.cpp, find:
void EV_TripmineFire( struct event_args_s *args );
and at the end of that function put this:

	CODE
	void EV_Flag(struct event_args_s *args );

Same file, ev_hldm.cpp, find:
void EV_TripmineFire( event_args_t *args )
and at the end of that function put this:

	CODE
	#define FLAG_STOLEN 1 #define FLAG_CAPTURE 2 #define FLAG_DROPPED 3 void EV_Flag( event_args_t *args ) { int idx = args->entindex; int type = args->iparam1; // Feel free to change the model that is attached to the player int FlagModel = gEngfuncs.pEventAPI->EV_FindModelIndex("models/flag.mdl"); switch( type ) { case FLAG_STOLEN: // Attach model to player gEngfuncs.pEfxAPI->R_AttachTentToPlayer( idx, FlagModel, 52, 9999); // The 52 is the z offset from the player and the 9999 is how long you want it to be attached for // Add more stuff here if you like break; case FLAG_CAPTURE: // Add stuff here if you like case FLAG_DROPPED: // Add more stuff here if you like // This gets rid of the attached model gEngfuncs.pEfxAPI->R_KillAttachedTents(idx); break; } }

Now to setup the FGD we do the following at the bottom of the FGD:

	CODE
	@PointClass = object_flag: "The Flag" [] @SolidClass base(Targetx) = capture_team1: "Where Team 1 brings the Flag" [ m_iPoints(integer) : "Points" : 1 ] @SolidClass base(Targetx) = capture_team2: "Where Team 2 brings the Flag" [ m_iPoints(integer) : "Points" : 1 ]

And that concludes my 3 Part tutorial on the CTF Gameplay. If you have any complaints, suggestions,problems,ect. Feel free to email me at the_dark_wonderer@hotmail.com
