Help Making a "Bomb"

[Wark]

Hey im just starting to make my Counter-Strike map, and i ned some help with the c4 (bomb)

I made it so when u enter a circle of power, a c4 appears next to you.

I need some help.

1. When the bomb is dropped in a region, a small Explosive Barrel is placed,
a countdown begins, if the bomb is not removed by the "Coutner Terrorists"
it blows up causing game over.

2. How to make it so there can be only 1 bomb in the game

3. How to make the bomb only useable and pickupable by the "Terrorists"

4. How to enable a one time use ability called "Plant Bomb"

This is going to be the biggest project in the game and il post other problems im having.

Q3:
A: well maybe you can make all the triggers that are enabled w/ the bomb with the condition that goes somethin like this:

triggering unit = to type of unit terrorist

 

[Wark]

Thats a good idea thx, but.. That still wont disable the Counter-Terrorists the ability to pick it up.

IM sure u made a c4 item..

Make a variable and call it Explosive and make it type item do #1
Make a variable of type integer and call it bomb and do number #2
1.

E: A unit begins casting an ability
C:Ability equal to C4 
A: if condition is true do Then, Else
   If- Bomb=Bomb +1
    Then- create C4 items at center of targeted point
    Else-Set Explosive=Last Created item

2. Make a variable of type integer and call it bomb and do this:

E: A unit finishes the effect of an ability
C: Ability equal to C4
A: Set Bomb=Bomb+1

3.

E: A unit aquires(or picks up) an item
C:Item equal to Explosive
A: If condition is true do Then, Else
   if- Triggering unit equal to (not terrorist)
   Then- Order triggering unit to drop last picked(or aquired) item
   Else-Do nothing

E: Unit aquires item
C: (Owner of(trigering unit)) = counter terriorest
A:
wait (0.10) gametime seconds
Item- move (item bieng manimpulated) to position of (trigering unit)
game - meaage player (you cannot use the enimys c4)

thats just a rough version to it would work if u foun the exact trigers

 

[Wark]

I couldent folow word for word, and i got this (havent tested it yet):

Trigger 1

E: Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
C: (Ability being cast) Equal to Plant C4 
A: If (Bomb Equal to (Bomb + 1)) then do (Unit - Create 1 Detenated C4 for (Triggering player) at (Target point of ability being cast) facing (Position of (Triggering unit))) else do (Set Explosive = (Last created item))


Tigger 2

E: Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
C: (Ability being cast) Equal to Plant C4 
A : Set Bomb = (Bomb + 1)

Trigger 3

E: Unit - A unit Acquires an item
C: (Item being manipulated) Equal to Explosive
A: If ((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Terrorist) then do (Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to drop (Item being manipulated) on (Triggering unit)) else do (Do nothing)


Variables: 
Bomb           Interger           0
Explosive      Item               None

For trigger three, is it a UNIT aquiring the item, or a HERO?

Triggering unit is usually a crappy choice. For items, if it's a hero, you typically use Hero Manipulating Item. However, if it IS a unit, then perhaps the Triggering Unit will work.

Your guess is as good as mine, but I've had trouble with Triggering unit before.

Create these variables:
HasBomb Boolean False
BombTime Timer Default
A dummy ability called drop bomb.
A item called bomb which is undroppable.
2 regions at your bomb plant area and at the bomb spawn area.

Use this for creating your bomb if a terrorist enter createbombregion:

    Events
        Unit - A unit enters (CreateBombRegion)
    Conditions
        HasBomb Equal to False
        (Unit-type of (Entering unit)) Equal to Terrorist
    Actions
        Item - Create Bomb at (Center of (CreateBombRegion))
        Set HasBomb = True

This for adding the Drop Bomb ability and destorying it if counterterrorists pick it up:

    Events
        Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    Conditions
        (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Bomb
    Actions
       If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Hero manipulating item)) Equal to CounterTerrorist
    Then - Actions
        Item - Remove (Item being manipulated)
        Countdown Timer - Pause (BombTime) as a One-shot timer that will expire in 30.00 seconds
        Countdown Timer - Destroy (Last created timer window)
        Set HasBomb = False
    Else - Actions
        Unit - Add Drop Bomb to (Hero manipulating item)

And this for dropping it:

    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Drop Bomb
    Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (BombPlantRegion contains (Casting unit)) Equal to True
            Then - Actions
                Item - Remove (Item carried by (Casting unit) of type Bomb)
                Item - Create Bomb at (Center of BombPlantRegion))
                Countdown Timer - Start (BombTime) as a One-shot timer that will expire in 30.00 seconds
                Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for (BombTime) with title Detonation Time
            Else - Actions
                Game - Display to (All allies of (Owner of (Casting unit))) the text: Bomb can not be planted here.

And this for winning:

    Events
        Time - BombTime expires
    Conditions
    Actions
        Countdown Timer - Destroy (Last created timer window)
        Your victory actions

Wow that was a lot of work. You should be able to tell what the above code does and modify it to suit your purposes perfectly. You might have to use a few more variables(for the timer window, heros and the actual bomb) then I have.

Thx so much Jaz


And 1 more thing, is there a way to change it so a CT can't pick it up, he can only pick it up with his ability "Disable Bomb"?

And will that make it so there can be only 1 bomb in the whole game?

What do you mean by "undropable" like undrpable on death or undropable at all?

 

[Grundy]

are you going to have casting time on "drop bomb" for whent hey are "setting up" the bomb

 

[Wark]

hmm good idea, i made a trigger that says "Planting Bomb..." and then "Bomb Planted" and I made the casting time like 10 seconds. Thx Grundy
