Spring RTS Engine

It certainly would be nice if Spring had a Deathmatch mode like in OTA. It would be great for small games like Com Shooter and duck.

When your commander dies, it would respawn somewhere (a start position, if that's what it would be limited to). However, to prevent games from going on forever, there should be a scoreboard that ends the game after a player/team scores a certain amount of commander kills. Limit it to choose from 2 to 20.

I know it's far from priority, but if it's not too difficult, it would be a nice feature addition.

Naah, forcing limits isn't nice. People are free to leave if they don't want to continue. Means it should be possible to set the limit as high as you want.

That just gave me another awesome idea... mmhmm... yep!

And I'm assuming you want us to ask... Oh Archangel, what is your super awesome idea? >_>

Oh yeah, if it's possible, if the game was set on Choose, when you die can you pick any spot on the map and respawn there? I'm guessing that would be hard to create...

lua next version etc.

Elaborate!

In the comm's death script call a LUA script that spawns another comm somewhere, I'd guess.

Could we configure the spawn limit through the lobby if we use LUA?

If LUA knows about the unit limit then yes.

what about a start-script?

*sighs* no, we cannot because as you should know by now GMN, the lobby does not support it.

But I thought the dev client did (or rather, would / will)...

We dont need the com script changing, just use a lua start script, which means we can do it right now if we had lobby support.
