Scripting problem with flags, got the flags working kinda

(lispider) #1 
flag1
{
	spawn
	{
		accum 1 set -1
	}

	trigger axis_capture	// flag has been touched by an Axis player
	{
		accum 1 abort_if_not_equal -1	// flag owned by someone, then abort.
		accum 1 set 0					// Axis own the pole
		wm_announce	"Axis capture the flag 1!"
		//alertentity flag1spawns
		alertentity flag1area

		globalaccum 0 abort_if_greater_than 0 // atleast flag number 1 already taken, abort
		globalaccum 0 set 1
		wait 500
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 0
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 1
	}

	trigger allied_capture	// flag has been touched by an allied player
	{
		accum 1 abort_if_not_equal -1	// flag owned by someone, then abort.
		accum 1 set 1					// Allies own the pole
		wm_announce	"Allies capture the flag 1!"
		//alertentity flag1spawns
		alertentity flag1area

		globalaccum 0 abort_if_greater_than 0 // atleast flag number 1 already taken, abort
		globalaccum 0 set 1
		wait 500
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 0
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 1
	}

	trigger kill
	{
		remove
	}
}

I have the entities setup as follows

FlagPole
classname = team_WOLF_checkpoint
scriptname = flag1area
targetname = flag1area
target = Flag 1
spawnflags = 1

Objective Above Pole
classname = team_WOLF_objective
scriptname = flag1area
description = Flag 1

Axis Flag 1 Spawnbox
classname = team_CTF_redspawn
scriptname = Flag 1
targetname = Flag 1

The accume should add 1 as you go along and be checking so that you spawn at the next flag but something isnt right and im not sure what. Can anyone help?[/b]

You could try to make the thing go to the other thing and then maybe that something that’s not right will be good.

jesus christ wtf is the point of giving someone a hard time when they are learning? hope u die right now at ur desk reading this wanderer ur useless and a waste of oxygen and resources. Infact go commit suicide no one cares :stuck_out_tongue:

Nobody is giving you a hard time.
If you had actually said what the problem is that you’re having instead of “something is not right in my map” I would’ve gladly helped you.
A stupid question deserves a stupid answer which is what you got.

P.S. you might wanna give decaf a try.

Ok heres what I have now… I have really put alot of effort and read through the forums trying to solve this problem.


game_manager
{
	spawn
	{
		// Game rules
		wm_axis_respawntime	3
		wm_allied_respawntime	3
		wm_set_round_timelimit	60
		wm_setwinner -1

		// accums
		globalaccum 0 set 0		// what is the highest flag number taken

	}
}

// FLAG 1
//
flag1
{
	spawn
	{
		accum 1 set -1
	}

	trigger axis_capture	// flag has been touched by an Axis player
	{
		accum 1 abort_if_not_equal -1	// flag owned by someone, then abort.
		accum 1 set 0					// Axis own the pole
		wm_announce	"Axis capture the flag 1!"
		alertentity flagspawn1
		alertentity flagblob1
		globalaccum 0 abort_if_greater_than 0 // atleast flag number 1 already taken, abort
		globalaccum 0 set 1
		wait 500
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 0
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 1
	}

	trigger allied_capture	// flag has been touched by an allied player
	{
		accum 1 abort_if_not_equal -1	// flag owned by someone, then abort.
		accum 1 set 1					// Allies own the pole
		wm_announce	"Allies capture the flag 1!"
		alertentity flagspawn1
		alertentity flagblob1

		globalaccum 0 abort_if_greater_than 0 // atleast flag number 1 already taken, abort
		globalaccum 0 set 1
		wait 500
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 0
		setautospawn "Flag 1" 1
	}

	trigger kill
	{
		remove
	}
}

Then the following 4 entities,


team_WOLF_objective
scriptname = flagblob1
targetname = flagblob1
Description = Flag 1



team_WOLF_checkpoint
scriptname = flag1
targetname = flag1
target = flagspawn1



team_CTF_redspawn
targetname = flagspawn1



team_CTF_bluespawn
targetname = flagspawn1

As soon as the flag gets grabbed/touched the game kicks me out with the following error: “G_Scripting: setautospawn, couldn’t find target”

Why am I getting this error? How do I fix it? Is the error in my script?

Description needs to be description (lower case d)
