[DFX2] WAC Solution For Map Breakers

[Guest001]

A Solution For Map Breakers
(circa 2013)

During some file archiving I came across this post from stompem.net

This is an old wac solution for COOP and Multi-Player matches but can also be used in Single Player missions.

There are probably better ways but this isn't complex to set up and worked OK.


It will bombard players who are off mission or in any area or reason you like.

You can wrap it with your own variables to trigger or modify.

Begin By Creating Some Objects The Mission Editor (MEd)

1.

Create a group of destroyable objects:
Barrels, crates etc...
Select and name them Group 3 or higher


* Single or Coop player is always Group 1
Game Defaults:
Group 1 - Blue team (Good) Blue
Group 2 - Red Team (Evil) Red


2.

Next make an Area Trigger:
Use 2 area markers to create Area 1


3.

Make 3 events:
event(0)
event(1)
event(2)
(as listed below)



In The Events Editor:

Event 0: Trigger Variables

Triggers:
Group 1 is within area 1 and
Group 3 has not been destroyed
Actions:
Execute WAC

Event 1: Trigger Text

Reset after 10 seconds
Delay event 1 seconds
Triggers:
Event 0 has been triggered
Actions:
Execute WAC

Event 2: Trigger Reset

Reset after 10 seconds
Triggers:
Group 1 is not within area 1
Actions:
Reset Event 0

THEN PASTE IN MISSION WAC.

NOTE
When issuing verbal instructions with wave files during high activity don't forget the usage of waveready() when needed.
