Happy New Years everyone,

About 6 months ago I came up with a idea for a game type. I have limited scripting skills, so I asked WarFare if he would make the script for me. I just received the script and have been testing it. And I have to say he did a wonderful job, it's everything I had hoped for.

The game type is called Team Survivor, Think of it as TT Dodge Ball. I have put this game on a normal TT map with Normal weapons. The Server name is New Game Type Repents . My locked server will run the new game on one of my regular mods.
The objective of the game is to eliminate the other team.
When a player is killed by a player on the opposing team, they're put into observer mode they can only return when someone on their team kills an opposing player. All players return to the game in the order they were eliminated, first one out first to return. Team killers and players that kill themselves are also put into observer mode. The game last 15 mins but we have had as many as 7 rounds per game. The game keeps track of individual scores and team wins.

I hope you take the time to check it out it's allot of fun with 4 to 6 players and I think it would make a great league game. Please let me know what you think.

Thank You
Repent.

Very nice. Great job. Will be looking foward repent.

I was in there for 30 seconds and u pulled the plug on the server. Can't wait to give it a go.

I played it a lot with Nyar and NEVA when you where testing! Very great idea, and I can't wait to play it with more people! XD GJ!

^ and ^^ both saw me there. Fun game. Cya later (when you put it back up)

Glad you are finally releasing it Rep. Great fun and great people.

Sounds the nutsof a game, love dodgeball the movie XD

Cant wait to play, nice one Repent.

Sorry guys, It's up now.

Uhh...

How can people get in?

Great Game!

Only it needs additions:

1. Have it say " " has come back to life!
2. When on team wins and it restarts all of my team spawned first and we won again since there was no green on the map...

I think for #2 you just have two people from each team spawn 3 seconds later.

3. Observer Mode

The one you use is kinda glitchy...

-Jacob

It's up on two servers, ones locked the other ones not.

Huh?

Great concept and thanks to Warfare for the execution.

[EDIT] Just got done playing. WOW, this is the greatest thing to happen to TT this year!

We run this game for a week and have not had any problems. I turned the observer camera speed down, it was set to high. Oh and I use Art's Observer script there's nothing buggy about it.

P.S. You may have a small download, it's the dts file and jpegs for my area affect.

@Monica:

Invetation, or something. I will probably enjoy the open server, because I like a fuller game, especially when Nyar is my opponent ;) XD !

Already have em :)

If we do have a League can we also run the Survivor one?

Does it work alright?
any changes needed besides the ones already mentioned? :)

This needs to be fixed

Repent, can you email me? I need to talk to you about something.

Nice job repent looking forward to it XD

I just came from the non-passworded server Repent. It has a few bugs. Not all players are respawning after a new round, and rounds aren't ending after all of one team is gone. Just thought I'd give you a heads up.

The round not ending right happens when someone is loading the mission... They havent spawned for the first time

I just played a game it ran just fine. If a player exits the game and he's the only spawned player the game will not replace him. So you're stuck with only one team on the field.

@WarFare Thank You.

^ I need to fix that then
its a little buggy... But not as buggy as survivor was :)
as a first time release it is going well...

Bump :)

W00t gj penty! It kinda freaked me out the first time I went into observer though :P

Well done! I'll give it a try! :P

Ok I will give this a try sounds neat-O !

Comment:

I think the smokin tank carcasses at end of round... Stay for too long.. During start of new round...
It keeps tally of individual players kills not of the team wins...Can this be added?

But real cool bored@home kicked my ass but still real cool new game. Good work!

Also

Your tank shouldn't make crazy spinning when you die. It's annoying, because it effects on your camera.

Lol.. OK put the tanks back to original settings. Team wins are recorded above the individual players scores Blue team Green team.

@ Delta Thank You.

@ Warfare

That is correct!

P.S.
Scooby-Doo was in a game and told me one of the teams was given 151 points. Oh ya if you jump into the fog you just re-spawn, players are using it to heal them selfs. Is there a way to make it so the bots can re-spawn but the players are put into observer mode? I have removed the game from the server until we can get it fixed.

I like team suvivor! It can really get annoying when in TBM u try so hard to kill a guy, and he keeps coming right back!!! AAARRRRGGGGHHHH

Nice. I like the style of the game. Survivor and Team Survivor should be added to ThinkTanks 2 for being an outstanding success of -z-'s genius and Warfare's scripting ability. 56 K Lag Man if you could contact BraveTree to see if this is ok with them. Anyways, thanks Warfare (yet again) for making Survivor a better challenge.

It would be fun to play this in a maze

@ Repent

Maybe use Sluggy's script that returns them with no ammo?

Got predownloads?

^^ Good idea... Repent: Tell warfare to have a look in my CTF script, that thing is inside ;)

We play this game during PE lessons in school, Its actually called "England Vs France"

Great Idea, cant wait to play it.

^
LOL.... Not in the good old U.S.A it's not.

@ CompUComp, I give Warfare all the credit for writing the script, but it was my idea, and if I had not asked warfare to make it for me we wouldn't be having this conversation in the first place, this script has nothing to do with -z-'s genius.

Once again thank you Warfare.

Thank you Repent and Warfare!!!!! I had always wished for something like this!!!!! XD

I will host it once Warfare has a chance to fix the bugs in the script. :P

@ KC Thank you!!

That would have been a great way to play my mod Thunder Dome....
I could never figure how to kick somone or put them in observer mode... The object was to be the last tank standing..I even had started tournaments on the game along time ago but like I said it was to hard to keep the killed players out.... Great Job!!! For coming up with a new script...hope your games run well....

I have added the antidiver script, lets see if this helps. I will have the game up today please try it, and let me know if you have any problems or ideas.

Thanks

Repent.

I cant load TeamSurvivor; TT stops loading @ the very end of datablocks... :'(
Sumbody know how that comes? ;)
