Freeze Tag Gamemode

[Legodude77]

An idea I got from playing Quake Live, basically whenever you kill somebody they freeze and cannot move. You can thaw your teammates by standing near them. It could take around 3 seconds and then they would respawn. To win your team has to freeze everybody on the other team.

You would make it for slayer right?

Yes

[Space1255]

Yes

I love you.

Well it seems easy enough. Make a playertype that can't move, then make it so it can't be damaged. Package being killed, and do a search radius on the frozen players to see if they should thaw or not. I'll take this up sometime this week when I know I wont be busy.

I loving love you and I'd be willing to help test.

Do a search radius on the frozen players to see if they should thaw or not.

Can you give me some pseudocode of doing things involving that?

[Thorfin25]

Can you give me some pseudocode of doing things involving that?

initContainerRadiusSearch(Transform,Radius,Object Type);
  while(%obj = containerSearchNext())
So you can do %player.getTransform(), 5, $TypeMasks::ProjectileObjectType as your arguments and it'll scan for projectile objects flying by the player.

Thank you

[Legodude77]

Any progress on this?

[Thorfin25]

Yeah, I'm just trying to code with Greek's style, which just makes it a little harder for me to do. But it looks prettier and will work better if I do it that way.
