if monsters killed = 10

[ThePlasticBling]

i want to make my game so if i kill 10 zombies, then something happens. I have tried just about everything i could think of. this won't work:

Code: Select all

if (monsters_killed = 10)
{
something happens
};

and i have tried alot of similar stuff. nothing works! a little help?

Well, The easiest way to do something would be like this:

Open up Zombie.qc and Find this Function:

Code: Select all

void() zombie_die =
{
	sound (self, CHAN_VOICE, "zombie/z_gib.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM);
	ThrowHead ("progs/h_zombie.mdl", self.health);
	ThrowGib ("progs/gib1.mdl", self.health);
	ThrowGib ("progs/gib2.mdl", self.health);
	ThrowGib ("progs/gib3.mdl", self.health);
};

Then you could add your if statement:

void() zombie_die =
{
if (killed_monsters == 10) //Plays a sound if a Zombie is killed
sound (self, CHAN_VOICE, "zombie/z_miss.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM)

sound (self, CHAN_VOICE, "zombie/z_gib.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM);
ThrowHead ("progs/h_zombie.mdl", self.health);
ThrowGib ("progs/gib1.mdl", self.health);
ThrowGib ("progs/gib2.mdl", self.health);
ThrowGib ("progs/gib3.mdl", self.health);
};

I am not so sure about printing a message to the player, coming from a Zombie death, but I know a way to do it.

If you want to print a message to the player when monster_kills = 10;, then open up client.qc, and scroll down to

/*
================
PlayerPreThink

Called every frame before physics are run
================
*/
void() PlayerPreThink =

Add your code Somewhere after this:

if (self.deadflag >= DEAD_DEAD)
{
PlayerDeathThink ();
return;
}

Maybe do something like this:

/*
================
PlayerPreThink

Called every frame before physics are run
================
*/
void() PlayerPreThink =
{

if (BotPreFrame()) // FrikBot
return;

if (intermission_running)
{
IntermissionThink (); // otherwise a button could be missed between
return; // the think tics
}

if (self.view_ofs == '0 0 0')
return; // intermission or finale


makevectors (self.v_angle); // is this still used

CheckRules ();
WaterMove ();

if (self.waterlevel == 2)
CheckWaterJump ();
}
if (self.deadflag >= DEAD_DEAD)
{
PlayerDeathThink ();
return;
}

if (self.deadflag == DEAD_DYING)
return; // dying, so do nothing

if (killed_monsters == 10)
centerprint (self, "10 Monster are outta this world!\n");

if (self.button2)
{
PlayerJump ();
}
else
self.flags = self.flags | FL_JUMPRELEASED;

// teleporters can force a non-moving pause time
if (time < self.pausetime)
self.velocity = '0 0 0';

if(time > self.attack_finished && self.currentammo == 0 && self.weapon != IT_AXE)
{
//self.weapon = W_BestWeapon ();
W_SetCurrentAmmo ();
}
};

FYI: The last method Is more temporary. In my opinion, it isn't good to clutter player_pre_think because it is kinda memory intensive.

FIXED

it says unkown value "monsters killed"

it says unkown value "monsters killed"

Man, you need to learn more about Quakec. The definition is a float that applies to the world, and it is actually killed_monsters. You need to figure some stuff out. I will fix the Function to suit the definition. I was just going more off what you were saying.

[mrmmaclean]

if (monsters_killed = 10)

This should be == not = anyway. You are assigning the value of '10' to the variable 'monsters_killed' when you should be comparing the values with the double equals sign.

Like i said before, learn some basic coding skills before you try to make a mod of something that you have no clue about.
