Chain Spawning Projectiles- Bloodgulch

Deimos · Post by **Deimos** » Sat Mar 13, 2004 8:01 am

This is the test map I used to figure out how to make projectiles chain spawn. In other words, you throw a frag, it blows up and spawns a couple more frags, then they blow up and spawn mortars. I will be using this in my Infinity mod, plus all the other tricks from my other mods. The chain frags are great for getting those roaches that hide in the caves and snipe. The rockets, stickies, frags, banshee fuel rod, and tank shell, all have chain spawning of some type.
When I host this map I use the server...

This map is rebuilt, so I can't make a ppf

what do you mean by spawning? like u throw a frag and instead of a nade u get a mortar thingy?

I think he means that when it blows up it shoots more frags or whatever out of it, like shrapnel.

Very, very...very very very cool!

How did you do that? what did you have to change in each explosion to make it shoot a projectile?

Woah... what the... interesting...

IWTPH2 · Post by **IWTPH2** » Sat Mar 13, 2004 8:38 am

Now all that is needed is for you to make one of these things shoot rockets with POA explosions instead of wraith mortar

I'm still figuring out myself, the easiest way to make chain spawns. I will post a tutorial after I'm sure of the most efficient and easiest way to do it. Right now I have it down to importing just one file, but I'm still working out a few problems with getting other stuff to spawn. I'm almost done with my infinity map, which I've rebuilt about 100 times already, trying to get it to work in the easiest way. So everybody knows though, I will tell how to do it. I want others to be able to try because I'm not good with getting bots to work and I suspect that this could be a way to respawn them. I know there could be endless possibilities with this. I do know this much about it so far...

The map must be rebuilt
Scenery, weapons, projectiles, power-ups, vehicles, and bipeds can all be spawned. With the vehicles and bipeds, I usually get exception errors, but not all the time. I wish I made a video of the ghosts falling out of the sky. That time it did not crash, so I know it can be done.

I am hoping to be done with both by this coming weekend. There are many things that I wanted to try before I was able to make sure of the easiest way to get it to work. I will keep you posted.

Why does the map have to be rebuilt?
Unless the spawning is an effect from another level, you don't need to do it.
lol, I can imagine a frag spawning another couple o frags, and goin on and sofort...
LOL! THAT would lag the hell out.
