Server
Lava Escape is a remade private gamemode where you climb a build to race against the lava rising below you (or above if you're too slow.)

The objective is simple: Make it to the end of the map before lava kills you.

This private gamemode contains a map cycler, which cycles the map after 4 rounds (may change)
Last round of the map will have the lava rise faster than it had in the previous rounds.
If more than one people survive, survivors get 5 points each.
If there is only one person alive, and they make it to the end alive, they get a bonus 3 points for being Last Man Standing.

The gamemode allows people to push each other. There may be a limit, which I think should be 3 pushes per round.

The gamemode also has 3 difficulty settings

Easy - The map is easy to beat, lava rises fast.
Medium - The map is kinda easy to beat, lava rises slower.
Hard - the map is hard to beat, lava rises slowest.

Beta application template removed, I have all the testers I need.

Do you want to make a map for the gamemode?

Heres how:
step 1: Build the map (obviously)
step 2: Name the brick at which the lava should stop under (ending the map) LEEnd
step 3: make a folder/zip and put your save in, and make 2 text files, one credits.txt and settings.txt
step 4: Rename the save to "save.bls".
step 5: in the settings.txt file, put the difficulty (listed above): 1 for easy, 2 for medium, 3 for hard.
step 6: in the credits.txt file, put in the names of people who made the map. (ex: "Wrapperup and a Blockhead").

PM me the zipped file and ill check it, fix it up (if it isn't correct) and put your map in the server.

holy. stuff.

looks loving amazing, though playground and clouds seem a little basic.

would be even more amazing if you made a map where people have to cooperate to get to the end.

There's no limit to how high the lava rises?

Actually, yes there is. Put your env water on the max height, that how high it can go.

changed to have the script set mission positions, water can go much much higher.

Limit on pushing? forget that, make it unlimited, that makes it more intense.

Accepted.

Also, for anyone who is wanting to be beta tester, there are only 3 more slots left.
There may be a chance of beta testers testing during the weekends.

have the occasional pushbroom dm match. or have builds where going an alternate route gives you a pushbroom/weapon, but its longer and more dangerous than going straight for the win.

Actually, yes there is. Put your env water on the max height, that how high it can go.
This is how you make the lava go higher:
Code: [Select]
function fixWater()
{
waterPlane.setTransform("0 0 -0.5 1 0 0 0");
waterZone.setScale("1000000 1000000 1000");
waterZone.setTransform("-500000 500000 -1000 1 0 0 0");
waterPlane.sendUpdate();
}
function setWaterHeight(%height)
{
waterPlane.setTransform("0 0" SPC %height - 0.5 SPC "1 0 0 0");
waterZone.setTransform("-500000 500000" SPC %height - 1000 SPC "1 0 0 0");
waterPlane.sendUpdate();
}
