To add a death region i just need to add a region and name it "Deathregion1" (without quotes) and then Deathregion2, ect. right?

i think the deathregion is already in the .req but i gotta check b.c im sure that has to be in there.

use damageregions -- they don't have to be set up in the LUA at all --- just make the damage 5000 and it will kill anything.

how do i make thoughs
wouldn't it just be easier to make deathregions. im sure i can do it. im getting very familiar with the LUA scripts. plus i dont know how to make damage higher.

so which should i do? death regions or damageregions? how do i add either or?


EDIT: oh found it. i gotta add AddDeathRegion("deathregion") under some line in the conquest LUA script. i just looked at Mustafar's conquest script as reference.

i just got one question. do i have to do AddDeathRegion("deathregion")

then AddDeathRegion("deathregion2")

AddDeathRegion("deathregion3")

ect...... or just deathregion and thats it like this: AddDeathRegion("deathregion")

????????????


EDIT #2: i just looked at other scripts too and confirmed the place and also i just right it once like this AddDeathRegion("deathregion")

and that it.

I haven't been able to get AddDeathRegion() to work. Use damageregions, their differences are small enough to not matter. Of course, if you want to add and remove a dying region, like in the trash compactor, then use death regions.

there's a 'change type' button (or something similar when you're in region mode.

ok ill do that b/c when i made the deathregion it didn't work. i think i may know why though. i gotta check it out.,

When I made my damage regions, they corrupted my entire Saleucami map. The map was all black and the spawns had disappeared. It was fixed when I removed them from my script. This is what my GCW script looks like:


AddWalkerType(3, 0) -- 3x2 (3 pairs of legs)
AddDamageRegion("pit")
AddDamageRegion("ravine")
AddDamageRegion("side1")
local weaponCnt = 1024
SetMemoryPoolSize("Aimer", 75)

If I remove the damage region lines, the map will work for GCW. I removed them for CW so I could take new screenshots earlier.

You don't add Damage Regions to the lua. Only Death regions.

ok im still confused of how to even create damage regions and how to set the damage. is it all in zeroeditor?
just create a region call it damageregion or something, but what about the damage?

EDIT: oh and mazda thats EXACTLY what happened to me when i made an error when i wanted to add locals.

i put AddAIGoal (locals, 7) blah blah blah

locals should have been 3 which created a fatal error which made everything disappear. chaning that one word into 3 fix the whole thing


EDIT #2: i see what to do with damage regions. thx guys.

That's strange, Tean. They still wouldn't work in the map after I removed the lines. Should the scales for damage be 100? It may be the "creature, vehicle, soldier" lines that need some sort of numerical value.

You set the damage value in ZeroEdit. Name your region something. Then set the region's properties to damageregion. ZeroEdit will now open a window on the right side of the screen with damageregion settings.

yeah zerted i said i saw taht in my previous post. thx anyway.

Your right you did. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I posted.
