Death regions

[Captain_Mazda]

Has anyone been able to put in working death regions? If so, mind sharing?

I'm sure there must be some scripting involved once you place it on your map, but where? What must be done?

[TAW_pinx]

Put this in the level stats portion of the LUA:

AddDeathRegion("DeathRegion")

Create a rectangular region where you want this to be and name it the above.

Many thanks!

Hmm, they're still not working.

This is what I've put in:

-- Level Stats
-- ClearWalkers()
AddWalkerType(0, 4) -- special -> droidekas
AddWalkerType(1, 16) -- 1x2 (1 pair of legs)
AddWalkerType(2, 0) -- 2x2 (2 pairs of legs)
AddWalkerType(3, 4) -- 3x2 (3 pairs of legs)
AddDeathRegion("Pit")
AddDeathRegion("Ravine")
AddDeathRegion("Wall1")
AddDeathRegion("Wall2")
AddDeathRegion("Wall3")
AddDeathRegion("Wall4")
AddDeathRegion("Corner2")
AddDeathRegion("Corner4")

SetMemoryPoolSize("EnergyBar", weaponCnt)

SetMemoryPoolSize("EntityLight", 200)
SetMemoryPoolSize("EntitySoundStream", 4)
SetMemoryPoolSize("EntitySoundStatic", 32)
SetMemoryPoolSize("MountedTurret", 32)
SetMemoryPoolSize("Navigator", 128)
SetMemoryPoolSize("Obstacle", 1024)
SetMemoryPoolSize("PathNode", 1024)

SetMemoryPoolSize("TreeGridStack", 1024)
SetMemoryPoolSize("UnitAgent", 128)
SetMemoryPoolSize("UnitController", 128)
SetMemoryPoolSize("Weapon", weaponCnt)

I've got those 8 deathregions, names match in the editor, they're also in the Conquest layer only. They just don't seem to want to work. Any ideas?

Change the damageregions instance properties in zeroedit to damageregion and then set damage to 3000. That way you know they die. For some reasons death regions are hard to get to work in BF2.

Weird, mine worked like a charm the way I had it set. For Citadel, it's in the base layer and works for all modes now. All it took was the name change to DeathRegion and that line in the LUA.

EDIT-Make sure ALL three properties feilds reflect the same name of the region in Zeroedit.
Mine worked like the above, expect this is the placement on the LUA:

SetSoundEffect("ScopeDisplayZoomIn", "binocularzoomin")
SetSoundEffect("ScopeDisplayZoomOut", "binocularzoomout")
--SetSoundEffect("WeaponUnableSelect", "com_weap_inf_weaponchange_null")
--SetSoundEffect("WeaponModeUnableSelect", "com_weap_inf_modechange_null")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayUnitChange", "shell_select_unit")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayUnitAccept", "shell_menu_enter")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplaySpawnPointChange", "shell_select_change")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplaySpawnPointAccept", "shell_menu_enter")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayBack", "shell_menu_exit")
