Theres 2 steps to this.

first what everyone has said, you use -1 as the time so it stays forever.

next - is to disable the minigame score display

just add this to your script

--- Code: ---function MinigameSO::displayScoresList(%this)
{
// do nothing
echo("display scores bypassed");
}

--- End code ---
adding it to a package is optional - but do NOT call Parent or it wont work.

This is what I do for my mining mod and it works great. No need for schedules or anything else.

Alright a few questions...
1) If I put -1 as the time, does it still update?
2) When it bypasses the Minigame Score Display is it that score display in TDM?
3) Is there a way to do this with T+T's ammo?

--- Quote from: otto-san on June 09, 2011, 02:17:22 PM ---This is (basically) the code I used. I used a servercmd and a time of -1. Even though it's -1, it goes away after about three minutes, so every three minutes, it brings it back up.

--- Code: ---function serverCmdInfo(%client)
{
commandToClient(%client,'bottomPrint',"TEXT", -1, 2, 3, 4);
}
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---function thing_tick()
{
cancel($thingTick);
for(%i = 0; %i < clientGroup.getCount(); %i++)
serverCmdInfo(%client);
$thingTick = schedule(3*60000,0,thing_tick);
}
--- End code ---

I'll mess with that and see what I get.

if you want a different value, you have to send bottom print again.
what i gave, prevents the minigame score display from overwriting what you print out.
