Arena Challenge Map

Postby Myxir » 26 Sep 2015, 15:29

i've made an arena style map, guided by ideas and suggestions from viewtopic.php?f=42&t=10854 , based on speed2's design and inital code viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10860

land arena:
FAF_ARENA(A7Q).zip
(6.81 KiB) Downloaded 96 times


water arena (not really tested, no presets yet):
FAF_ARENA(TGV water).zip
(6.8 KiB) Downloaded 81 times



install it by downloading this, extracting it, and placing the FAF_ARENA(A7Q) folder which contains 5 lua files (not another folder) in your maps folder, which is likely located in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Maps

there are some presets to easily start up a challenge, but you can ditch those and configure it to your liking

options:
- presets (will ignore all other settings)
- player unit kind, how many, and how far away from each other they spawn
- when the mission is over (lost 1/over half/all player units)
- emeny unit kind, how many per wave, how many waves, the time delay between waves, and how enemy untis behave
- how many spawns the enemy uses (1 or 8 atm)

winning a challenge tells us about cheats enabled or disabled, and how long it took

no matter if you won or lost a challenge, you can instantly restart it by pressing that button

some challenge results to be found here viewtopic.php?f=42&t=10854&start=30#p111056
(they might not have a "cheats disabled/enabled" info yet, as that was added a version later
have fun testing it yourself, and show us some results!


you're free to use this code, make another version, improve it, add challenges/units and so on

added a water arena, without presets and not tested though
added multiplayer support for up to 4 players, units spawn evenly distributed to players but the total amount stays the same
