Halo 5 Scripting Help

I could maybe help you out right now. What sort of object? and how often do you want the object to enter the boundary, and what do you want it to do once it enters?

 

Okay, this is a pretty quick rundown, but it should work. I'm assuming that only one team is bringing the flag in to get points.

First, assign the flag a label. I'd use something like {user:foxtrot} for flag, but if it is the only label you are using {user:zulu} should be fine (it's the easiest label to find, just controller, left).

Anyway, you'll want a script brain. have it send a message on a timer (you can choose, 0.1 seconds is the fastest). This will tell your boundary how often to check for the flag to enter.

Now, the object with the boundary. You'll want a script stating that when it spawns, it sets it's number to 0.

On: Spawn
Action 1:
Number Change

Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Set,
Source: Constant
0
​

That sets the object to have a base state. We want a script to change this base state.

On: Message: Channel: {Timer}

Action 1:
Number Change:

Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Set
Source: Constant
0​

Action 2:

Number Change:
Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Decrement
Source: Object Count

Players [Add]
Label [Include]

{flag label}​

Boundary: THIS [include]
Select First: 1​

0
​

Condition Interrupt, Round interrupt, and Always run are set to Off.

The first action resets the objects value to 0 when there is no flag in it, the second action sets the object's value to -1 when a flag is in it. Pay attention to the object count modifiers (make sure [add]s are [add]s and [include]s are [include]s.

You'll want another script that does a number check on the boundary object, and on result of -1 you can have it change the score (

score change:

Team

Team {x}[add]​

Operation: Increment
Source: Constant
Value: 1
​

)

and do other things like send a message, or play a global sound effect (just have play sound as an action, and do players: [add] as the only modifier, and chose the sound.

You will need additional scripts do despawn and respawn the flag, but those shouldn't be to hard.

Hope that helps!

Okay, what I've done is have two script brains with overlapping boundaries. The script I already wrote above goes on one brain, and detects the flag, while this one detects a player. On the first script, have a number check where -1 sends a message on channel {flag}.

On: Message: Channel: {Timer}
Action 1:

Number Change:
Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Set
Source: Constant
0​

Action 2:

Number Change:
Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Increment
Source: Object Count

Players [Add]
Team[Include]

team 1 (defender)​

Dead[exlude]

Boundary: THIS [include]
Select First: 1​

0
​

Action 3:

Number Change:
Scope: Object

OBJECT: THIS​

Operation: Decrement
Source: Object Count

Players [Add]
Team[Include]

team 2 (Attacker)​

Dead[exlude]
Boundary: THIS [include]
Select First: 1​

0
​

On this new brain have three number check scripts, where a state of 1 (red team in) turns power channel {red} ON and power channel {blue} off. a state of -1 (blue team in) does the opposite. Finally, a state of 0 (no team in boundary or both teams in[blocking a capture]) sets both {red} and {blue} to OFF.

Finally, there is a scoring brain. that has two message/ power multi scripts. the first one increments red score when:

message recieved {flag} and {red} is on,

and a second script that does the same for blue.

In order to prevent constant scoring, you'll have to despawn the flag when it enters the boundary (after scoring), or have the {flag} script brain run on a different timer.
