i have been stumped on this problem for a few days now.... i want to create uneven teams in a jk mp level. say 3vs1, the only problem is i want it all to be in the level so users can use mods with it. so i need a way to make the 3 unable to damage each other and only to damage the 1. i would like to make the 3 invincible and then check to see if the 1 player damaged them and then apply the damage, or apply the damage if it was self inflicted. this would be very simple to do if i changed the kyle.cog but i don't want to. so any insight into how to do this would be greatly apperciated. if my question made any sense.....

The Rbots project had implemented that. I haven't looked at it but you'll be sure to find something there.

Not sure if i understand your question completely, but can't you use:

GetNumPlayersInTeam(team int);
SetPlayerTeam(player,team int);
GetPlayerTeam(player);

some how in conjunction with a join, or startup, or maybe new player message to get what you want done?

I can't tell you much more about the Rbots except that it would most likely be in a "damaged" message. The only reason I know you can't hurt teammates in Rbots Teams is because I REALLY tried to kill one of the reb bots (my team) and I just couldn't. I fired at him for like 5 minutes straight.
I'll take a quick look and see if I can't find something else.

[edit]
Ok, here's the code you want. It's in rbot-srv.cog and is in the "damaged" section


This code checks the gamemode for teamplay (I'm almost positive). It also check for the damager's type (2=actor, 10=player); if the damager is one of those 2 types and it's on the 'damaged' bot's team, it cancels the damage (the bot is not a player, so the code has the bot's team info stored in its userdata).

Unfortunately, it looks like you'll have to edit the kyle.cog 'damaged' message to use this. Maybe there's a way around it, though...
