if it wld be possible to make the ammap_place emplaced_gun in such way that u cld password the turret. Our idea is for RP purposes and then for certain ppl (Council, KoP, and TH).
When RP the turret wld be prepared in advance and after rp it wld be deleted or map restart.
When not RP the idea is to put one turret to each base (or near jail eventually) and password it (these turrets wld be saved)
Like turret for TH wld have other password then the one for KoP

What u mean? Good or bad idea? We asked Black and he thinks its good idea but need some bit more thinking bout it

If this is somehow alrdy implemented sorry we didnt know it
(and no Black we dont mean sentries xDD)

emplaced_guns could have password locks, but only if I do some reprogramming... I don't see why you would need that though.

**A-doy** Sun Oct 07, 2012 2:41 pm

Was just an idea

**Vader** Sun Oct 07, 2012 11:49 pm

I guess it would be good for us. (if there is a turret ofc) So that when people join the server (non AoF) they would not be allowed to.
Seems kinda silly now that i think of it, since bespin_streets is the only map with an emplaced gun. (i think...)

New Twifire Video at http://mcmonkey4eva.no-ip.org/twifire --- "Repairing Default Maps"

**Leonardo** Thu Dec 06, 2012 1:10 am

My favorite video is still "Pushy Thingys"

**mcmonkey** Sat Jan 05, 2013 5:45 pm

Just thought I'd bump this up by posting the official change log from Twifire v1000 to the current version:

Command Fix: ammakeadmin supports power set 7 - power7 now loaded properly
General Fix: RAM usage lowered - strings restored to 1KB instead of 2KB
Command Fix: ammap_place random glitches removed - no more sudden unexplained failure of the command ammap_place
Command Add: amsupershield returned - spawn a group-locked shield
Command Add: amsupersentry returned - spawn a powerful group-locked turret
Command Remove: deleted note system (amaddnote,amreadnote,amdeletenote)
Command Add: amblockdeath - prevents /kill and team changes
General Fix: minor bug fixes - many small changes
CVar Add: mc_quietcvars - prevents announcement of CVar changes (EG: "Server: fraglimit changed to 20")
CVar Add: mc_customhelp_{name/desc/info} - cvars to control a custom extra slot in /amhelp
Cvar Add: mc_weaponstealing - disables force pull to take away held weapons
General Fix: ammap_save newline support - can safely save ents with lineskips (target_print ...)
CVar Add: mc_jedivmerc - modifies existing CVar g_jedivmerc to work better
File Add: defaults/admin_free.cfg - now defines which admin commands are given to any registered user (previously only jetpack) (Defaultly jetpack, rget, rgoto, whois)
File Add: defaults/credits.cfg - defines values for the new credit system
Command Change: ammap_move has new usage - Dev-Use-Only door adjustment command deleted, replaced with command to cause any entity to begin moving (like a door would)
File Add: helpfiles/JK2ded2.exe - JK2Ded with remote crash fix
File Add: new readmes - various new readmes added
General: Website (http://mcmonkey4eva.no-ip.org/twifire) - now has tons of mapmodding tutorials/info
Command Add: amdistance - measures the distance between two map points
Command Fix: amsetrank and amgivecommand unrestricted - no longer locked to player rank (Level 1's can use them on Level 7's)
Command Add: amlightning - causes lightning to strike any map location
Command Add: ammap_search - displays a list of entities within parent set that contain specified information within the trace (EG: {/ammap_search all "fire"} would list effects of env/fire, fire models, etc.)
Command Add: ammap_delent_matching - Replicates ammap_search, but deletes chosen entities.
Command Add: ammap_group_matching - Replicates ammap_search, but sends chosen entity to an entity group (for further manipulation via bygroup_#)
Command Add: amvehicle - places a player in a JKA-Style vehicle
File Add: Folder "vehicles" and all subset files - to define vehicles which /amvehicle can use
CVar Add: mc_newvotesystem - Sets the vote system to wait until the timer is down before passing or failing. When the timer hits 0, it passes if yes votes > no votes, instead of yes votes = half the number of players.
CVar Add: mc_mapvotefix - allows players to vote for any map the server has, not restricting to gametype.
General Fix: 'all' parameter for entity name - /ammap_* commands can now use this to run through every valid entity in the map.
Command Add: /amassassinate - command user 'assassinates' the chosen player.
Entity Add: mc_hurt - this entity is like trigger_hurt, but can be spawned without using a brush model (Twifire in-game mapmodding cannot use brush models)
General Fix: improved SinglePlayer map support - Many locked doors are unlocked. (Doors that lack any default trigger will receive a trigger, 'disabled' triggers are no longer possible.)
Command Add: /amafk - marks you as AFK
CVar Add: mc_afktime - time in seconds before player is automatically AFK'd
CVar Add: mc_afkisdeadtime - time in seconds for a player to be AFK before they are not counted in mc_safemap checks
CVar Add: mc_votedelaytime - time in seconds that players must wait after calling a vote before they may call another. (Admin Permission 'callvote' [7-16] bypasses this)
CVar Add: mc_showflagtime - whether to show the time a player has held the flag before capturing it in CTF
File Add: map_blacklist.cfg - list what maps cannot be callvoted.
RCON Command Add: /mcrename <player> <name> - same as /amrename, but for the server
CVar Add: mc_falltodeathdeath - whether to allow players to use /kill while falling to their death
File Remove: time2.dat - no longer needed
Command Add: /ambaz - The player becomes Baz.
CVar Add: mc_unlagged - enable/disable the "Quake3 Unlagged" system
Command Adjust: amchatcommands now has 'censor' option
CVar Add: mc_fixjumpbug - set to 1 to block a glitch in which player's are able to jump partially through a roof and grab items above the roof.

I'm hoping to get an official Twifire public release soon, last chance for Twiffy requests!

**Leonardo** Sun Jan 06, 2013 2:42 am

The big meaty cocks picture should be a texture.....or a wall ent or something

**mcmonkey** Sun Jan 06, 2013 3:03 am

In what way is that related to Twifire?

**Leonardo** Sun Jan 06, 2013 5:36 pm

Oh excuse me Fuhrer for just suggesting

You made a Twifire request/suggestion... that makes absolutely no sense.

**Black ASSassin** Sun Jan 06, 2013 8:19 pm

maybe a command that makes people not be able to shoot or take out there saber. like a disarming command?

Angelis Sun Jan 06, 2013 8:50 pm

or maybe an ability to disable a certain players force pool

These are both excellent ideas and I will get to work on them soon. Thank you!

np, felt like i had to come up with atleast one good idea for twifire. Razz

**mcmonkey** Fri Jan 11, 2013 10:37 pm

amblockweapon, amblockforce, amblockrename all added.

ALSO
179 command data-values in use.
There is room for THREE MORE.
There are 193 commands in Twifire.
I need command ideas that will use those two slots for 7 total new commands.
Exactly 200 commands total would be freakin' awesome.

(Command data-value is basically the permission for a command. If two commands share a data-value, you can /amgivecommand either one of them and you are automatically allowed to use both) (This is seen in commands like amaddhealth/amsethealth, amplaysound/amplaysound2, amterminator/amunterminator, etc.)

**A-doy** Sat Jan 12, 2013 6:27 am

Had idea of this: twifi has various triggers for stuff like teleports, changing speed, add/take credits etc. It has command amplayfx to play chosen effect. I had idea of a trigger for effect.
Like this e.g.: u spawn control panel, spawn a trigger and when u press Use, the trigger will activate the effect and plays it. It hit my thoughts when i was thinking of that twifi has target_speaker but doesnt have *target_playfx* or so
Well ik it may be silly idea. sorry mcmonkey if it is

**Black ASSassin** Sat Jan 12, 2013 10:41 am

how bout a command amblockchatcommand, so it blocks the player from teleing or using any of the other chat commands.

You can actually do that by default in JK2. I'll write up some info on how to do it in Twifire.

Uhm... no. Silence him if it gets to be a problem.

Also, check the http://mcmonkey4eva.no-ip.org/twifire Twifire website - I added example usages to all the ammap_place items + how to use the new mc_door entity (a fully working .md3 model door!) --- and also how to add an effect like Yoda described above.

Also, /amaddeffect now makes a "mc_effect" and /amaddmodel makes a "mc_model"

**A-doy** Sat Jan 12, 2013 5:14 pm

Sweet, thankyou

**mcmonkey** Sat Jan 12, 2013 6:23 pm

Did some slight changes, correction of earlier post:

**Leonardo** Sat Jan 12, 2013 6:59 pm

Only 6 more commands to add then...

**mcmonkey** Sat Jan 12, 2013 8:03 pm

Leonardo wrote:Only 6 more commands to add then...

Actually, it appears I've miscounted

Come on people, gimme some ideas! Even if you think I'm going to call it stupid - which is likely - post it anyway!

New commands: ampunch (open for all) and amworship (admin only)

And recorrection of above:

177 command data-values in use.
There is room for FOUR MORE.
There are 189 commands in Twifire.
I need command ideas that will use those four slots for 11 total new commands.
Exactly 200 commands total would be freakin' awesome.

(I could potentially free up a free slots by combining things like amslap and amslap2...)

**Avenger** Sun Jan 13, 2013 2:18 am

Wellp
/amalta - blocks amassassinate
/amkillz - Records number of wins and losses (Doesn't get resetted once the player leaves)
/amwin - Emote to celebrate Win.

**mcmonkey** Sun Jan 13, 2013 2:22 am

Venge wrote:/amalta - blocks amassassinate

You got that from the Skype chatgroup. You can only block assassinate and such if you outrank the attacker. (a command for that is a bit illogical)

/amkillz - Records number of wins and losses (Doesn't get resetted once the player leaves)

I /could/ implement account kill/death tracking... but... mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... and that wouldn't work as a command, it'd have to be something that's on or off (and, I guess, a command to check your k/d)

/amwin - Emote to celebrate Win.

Do you know about /amdoemote? It let's you do an emote by number like /amdoemote me 100 - experiment with that a bit, if you find an emote that seems to be a "win celebration" or anything else special, tell me the # and I'll add it.
