Capture-the-Flag (I need help)

[Max_K]

I need help with the Capture the flag game because I do not know how to use zones to recognize that they “captured the flag”.

[RektRainbow]

here is most everything u need to know on CTF:

[ Resources ] Resources for Capture the Flag

also welcome to the forums @Max_K
make sure to read the FAQ

here are most of the essential devices you need for zones, flags, and tagging:

there are other devices but these are the ones to get started on ur game

[Max_K]

Also, I would need to find out how they actually works. (sorry I am kinda a noob at this )

[RektRainbow]

it’s fine! we all start somewhere

i will explain each of the core devices in order

Flag

the flag is just like the flag in CTF, you can pick it up, drop it, and other configurable settings (in the device)

Zone

the zone detects when players enter or leave and can apply effects and grant/take things from the player

Tag Zone

this is a device that you can configure to allow tagging and respawning to happen! it’s a little complex so careful on this one

Waypoint

you know how when you have a flag it points an arrow towards you? this is it! shows where certain players are and other fun stuff, ofc u have to edit it a good bit

Flag Capture Zone

this is the area where when you enter, captures the flag!

[Max_K]

am still a little bit confused about the zone, can you please explain a little more about it?

[Max_K]

and can you tell me more about the waypoint? (like how to use it etc.)

[RektRainbow]

the normal zone?
or tag zone
or flag zone?
or all 3?

@Max_K

am still a little bit confused about the zone, can you please explain a little more about it?

im gonna be honest with you, ive never used the way point b4
dw, ill find a guide for you

[Max_K]

tag and normal (sorry I am really bad

[RektRainbow]

ah no problem!
so ill start with the tag zone first:

tag zone

you know if a Vortex player goes on Echo, an Echo player can tag the vortex? and the same way for vortex to echo? that’s what the tag zone does, you set where the tag zone is, and what teams are getting tagged (so in the device settings it would be team 1 and team 2)

the normal zone

just recognizes when a player goes into it and goes out, and from there on it would make signals onto other devices when a player enters and leaves

ok lemme try out the waypoint myself

[RektRainbow]

alright these are the options for what you can track, in our case, it’s going to be the flag

you pick the color flag it will track, and the name of the waypoint

and you can change the text color for the way point and arrow too

and boóm, when an enemy picks up the black flag, this shows up for your team:

what happens when u go off screen:

[Max_K]

thank you! I liked how you used images so I could see a visual!

[RektRainbow]

you’re very welcome
if i helped u w/ ur CTF game, then mark a solution to close the post.

happy gimkiting

[Max_K]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP (I probably wont mark it solution this because I might still have questions after testing just so you know)

[RektRainbow]

well if u have different questions u can make a separate help post going more in depth onto that one question, but make sure you dont make a billion help posts cuz that gets a little annoying

[Max_K]

ok I will mark it then. Have a very great day and thanks for your help!
