Challenge ProMode Arena: NTF
|
||
|
|
----------------------------
|

|

NTF is a class-based form of CTF, somewhat reminiscent of Team Fortress
|
||
|
|
but really having very little in common with it.
|
||
|
|
Flags, Powerups, and Ammo are all present just as in CTF, but maps have
|
||
|
|
no Armour, no Health except for the MegaHealth, and no Weapons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Players spawn with no armour, and an initial health and weapon loadout
|
||
|
|
determined by the class.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Health and armour both regenerate at 5 points per second: health up to
|
||
|
|
100, and armour up to the class's maximum.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Backpacks from corpses give one box of ammo for all your weapons and an
|
||
|
|
armour shard.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Classes are defined by the files in cpma/classes and like modes can be
|
||
|
|
customised extensively. The options for class definitions are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
n - name ("Scout", "Fighter", etc)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
m - model ("slash", sarge", etc)
|
||
|
|
NTF models always use ProMode skins
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
s - base speed
|
||
|
|
320 is standard CPM speed, i.e. VERY fast if the player is skilled enough
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
h - spawn health
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
a - maximum armour
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ac - armour class
|
||
|
|
One of the CPMA armour types: 0 - Green, 1 - Yellow, 2 - Red
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ht - hook type (0 - None, 1 - Offhand, 2 - Onhand)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hp - hook pull
|
||
|
|
How fast a grappling player moves
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hs - hook speed
|
||
|
|
How fast the grapple hook itself moves
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
jd 1 - can double jump
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
jr 1 - can ramp jump
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wX s,m,b,g - weapon loadout and ammo
|
||
|
|
w2 is MG, w3 SG, and so on. The four arguments set the ammo counts for
|
||
|
|
initial spawn, max, "box" pickup (i.e. a dropped pack), and "gun" pickup
|
||
|
|
(i.e. an item pack). They MUST all be specified, and MUST be comma-separated
|
||
|
|
with no spaces between them (just like "ammo" lines in mode configs).
|
||
|
|
Whether a class has a weapon or not is determined by the presence of a wX
|
||
|
|
line, not the spawn ammo, so it's possible to give a class a certain weapon
|
||
|
|
but have it be unusable until the player acquires ammo for it from a pack.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sw - starting weapon
|
||
|
|
Must be one of the numbers from a wX line (or 1 for gauntlet). Handy for
|
||
|
|
classes like Scout that spawn with SG and GL to prevent GL being selected
|
||
|
|
just because it's the "higher" weapon
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is basically no checking done on any part of the class definitions.
|
||
|
|
If you're not capable of getting them right, you probably shouldn't be messing
|
||
|
|
with them in the first place. :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Although we don't currently enforce it, realistically NTF requires CPM
|
||
|
|
settings. PMC lets Fighters and Tanks move faster than Scouts; CQ3 nerfs
|
||
|
|
advanced movement so badly that classes which depend on it become almost
|
||
|
|
unplayable; and VQ3 simply doesn't work.
|
||
|
|
Still, it's the admin's choice to make so...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In case you hadn't worked it out yet, NTF stands for "Not Team Fortress". :)
