Gold Boxes as Flags Not Showing Up

(swaggers) #1

I am trying to flags to work ala mp_silllyctf and radar.

The command map icon won’t come up.
The goldbox doesn’t come up in the map.
The target works as I see the Near text.

These are my setting.

How about making it for on team?
and select for example only_allied. Try it, i havent used the flag stuff yet :stuck_out_tongue:

Remove the “targetname” from the “team_CTF_redflag” entity. If you have a “targetname” on the entity it will start invisible until triggered either via the script or by a “trigger_always” for example.

Setup the script as follows if you require the “targetname” key on the entity.

supplies_scr
{
	spawn
	{
		wait 200
		alertentity supplies_scr
	}
}

thanks sock.

I was doing the targetname/scriptname thing based on the advice given here that doing that is just easier incase you need it.

Any other instances where you’d want to just use one??

TBH it surprised me too, because we had always been told/shouted at to create targetname/scriptname combinations for all entities. It took me several test maps to find this problem in the first place. We suspected it might had been a spawnflag issue with the “team_CTF_redflag” entity but it looks like it only affects this entity type. (Also the blueflag as well)
