Gruppe Adler EndGame Template

This template brings BI's gamemode EndGame up to par with GA's gameplay standards. It provides the mission creator with a range of functions that automatically do the out-of-editor work for him. All the necessary mission modules come pre-placed and mostly pre-configured.

Differences to Vanilla EndGame

• removed revive ability (only ACE now)
• removed 3D task markers
• removed 3D and 2D schematics carrier marker
• removed map markers that showed presence of enemies in bases
• removed ability to pick respawn point (only FOB now)
• wave respawn system (see below)

Respawn System:

• during phase 1 and 2 players may only respawn in waves
• wave size is dependant on number of players (or mission parameter)
• when a player dies, he sees a countdown after which he will be added to the next wave
• when the first player gets added to a wave, that wave's countdown starts
• the wave respawns as soon as it has enough players and its countdown ends
• players that die in phase 3 become spectators

Creating the Mission

Video tutorial (in German!):

Spawnpoints

• move respawn_west and respawn_east to the starting positions of both teams
• place player unit

FOBs

• move EndGame Start Game Objective module to the FOB positions (module will be respawn position after FOB is captured)
• define Succeed Radius in the module --> when all AI in this radius are dead, FOB is captured
• protect the FOBs with the Zone Protection module

Intel Bases

• build a base
• place download object obj_download_i
• create a trigger around the base (which encloses all objects belonging to that base)
• place an EndGame Simple Objective module and sync it with the trigger
• register the download object in the module
• sync the module with either the EndGame Objectives Instance module or and EndGame Objective Randomizer

Schematics

• place schematics objects obj_pickup_i (game will choose one at random)
• place upload objects obj_upload_i (game will choose two at random)
• register schematics and upload objects in the EndGame Objective module
• set timelimit for phase 3 in the module
