Well i started making a cops and robbers map earlier today and its looking well...then i thought i wanted to make it for more than 1 gametype. First obvious one was to set different spawn areas and go for TS then i added territories and KOTH and bomb ...then i realised i wasnt using my jails that i'd but a good bit of effort into so i was thinking what else could i use em for. Then i thought of using VIP since that seems to work well for interesting stuff. I imagine you can set the VIP to respawn in different places?(this is a guess fomr the last level) So how about i make the Vip start inside the jail? then the other players must rescue him and escort him around for points.the other teams objective is to jail the VIP to limit the points the other team can get in their VIP round..maybe giving them a small amount of points for kills to encourage them to go hunting the normal other teams. That i think hasnt been done beofre and could add to the usage of my whole map. What do you think?is it possible? If any of you are interested the map in question is Wargames and is in forge discussion
I don't mean any offense, but do you know how many Cops n Robbers maps there are? Too many. Sit down with a particularly large piece of chocolate and a pencil and some paper, and let your mind go free. Bigger imagination=better maps. The best Forge maps are the unique, original ones.
There is no way to technically make the VIP spawn or respawn in a certain place. I think the way that the Last Level worked out is that there was different spawn areas and as the attacking team furthered into the level, the game recognized that those spawn areas weren't safe so the VIP and the rest of his team spawned at the next safest spawn area (next part of the level).
ahh ok ill keep looking but thanks for answering this. its not just for cops and rbbers,thats the thing im setting it for a few other SWAT gametypes so its not such a situational map,alos my jails have to be attending to a small degree and if the team is careless the others will break out. Also the way ive done it if the jailed team are smart they can break out themselves
