This thread is not about the bulidings and terrain in 187's mod.

187 or any one els that knows, I have four questions for you. Plz answer as many as you can step by step.

#1- How do you make it so there are three teams?- not needed.

#2- Is it possible to edit your allready made signs so they say something different and how?

#3- How do you make it say something on your screen in the center when you enter a tankchanger?

#4- How do you make it so you change teams when you go through a tankchanger and if you are allready in that team that you are changing to you still stay that team.

For more information on 187's mod plz go to 187 is truly the best modder!

#1 srry I cant help u out there.

#2 yes it is and u can make your own but I dont know how ( I dont do many skins).

#3 it doesnt say something wen u warp its just wen u enter the "force field" it says green base or wateva infiltrated.

The center print is on the first page of this modding forum. Srry I cant put it up cos I dont quite get -z-'s linking thingy :)

#1 is scripting

#2 yes, but it wont look any different to people that have already downloaded it, so no point.

#3 add to your function:

Centerprintall("message", # of sec to display, # of lines to use);

But if you want it just for the client it is a bit more than that. :)

I added a question. #4 is my last

#1- What kind of scripting?- not needed.

#2- Could someone tell me how to make a sign and put it in the game?

#3- I just remebered it allready says something and I want it to say something different.

#4- I know thats not in Tank City, but I just remebered I would need to know.

For #3 would it look like this, or would I have to edit tankchangers.cs.dso file?

New PowerUp() {

DataBlock = "ufochanger";

Position = "117.648 -14.6033 111.661";

Rotation = "0.0162436 0.0368108 0.99919 41.2201";

Scale = "1 1 1";

LightBoost = "0";

Centerprintall("message", # of sec to display, # of lines to use);

For #3 No it wouldnt look like that.

#1 Dunno, havent tried it.

#2 Milkshape or something similar.

#4 More scripting, similar to the tank changers though.

Ok I think I need 187's help. XD

#2- I'm not much of a modler just want to know the basics. So whats milkshape?

#3- how would it look then?

Ok for the message thing I have two different sets of messages the first one I rather have though.

First set:

If they go to the UFO changer it will say: You have become a trader of the Blue team.

If they go to any other tank changer and they were a UFO it will say: You have become a trader of the Green team.

If they go to any other tank changer and are on the Blue team (all the tanks) it will say what it normal says.

Second set:

If that up there is to hard to do you could just do the first message on the first set and for the other tank changers just make it say: You have become a trader of the Green team.

Ok im kind of making this up as I go and I need to know how to make it so if you don't choose a team then your on the Green team (the UFO bots).

I geuss I'll use 187's sign, how would I get it in the game in the right place?

Well, I think you can use milkshape to make a new sign and.dso file for it. (referring to #2). #3. Already being done. #1. No friggin idea. #4. Simple bit o' scripting in da tankchanging script!

^{Use lined paper plz its more neater.}
