169th_DedCat Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 I create a lot of full scale multiplayer battle maps for LOMAC. Having an option for ground units to respawn after X minutes of being destroyed would add a lot to these types of missions. The problem I've been having with some of my full-scale multiplayer missions is that many pilots decide to completely ignore their objectives or their target box assigned in the brief, and instead make it a point to join the game and methodically destroy every single emitting radar on the map whether it has any relevance to their real mission or not. Once this is achieved the balance of territory for any pilots just joining the game is thrown way off centre, and IMHO the real-life feel of immersion for the map is destroyed for the side that has now wiped out all the enemy radars. Having a ground unit respawn option would allow SEAD-freaks to still play the game, but it would also allow me to run a dedicated mission of this sort with some well defined Red/Blue territories for very long extended periods of time.

Guest Cali Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 I like to kill everything at one spot first e.i. radar, launchers and AAA. Anyone know when 1.11 is coming out or if it is even in work.

Dmut Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 no, it's not possible with LUA script at present. you can't create or modify objects by scripts. and yes, they are working on patch. "There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: recklessness, which leads to destruction; cowardice, which leads to capture; a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble."
