| Wwzones is a standard [[Plug-ins|plug-in]] that is shipped with the [[BZFlag Source]] code. The plugin fires a map defined world weapon whenever a player is in a map defined volume.
| | #REDIRECT [[Plug-ins]] |
| | |
| It can be used for landmines, booby traps, clearing campers in difficult locations, general amusement, etc.
| |
| | |
| Multiple zones with different weapons, etc. may be used in same map file.
| |
| | |
| =Usage=
| |
| | |
| The general form of a wwzone [[BZW]] map entry looks like the following:
| |
|
| |
| wwzone
| |
| cylinder <X> <Y> <Zmin> <Zmax> <radius>
| |
| zoneweapon <flagType> <lifetime> <X> <Y> <Z> <tilt> <direction> <shotID> <nowiki><DT></nowiki>
| |
| playermessage <message>
| |
| servermessage <message>
| |
| infomessage
| |
| repeat <seconds>
| |
| timedelay <seconds>
| |
| end
| |
| | |
| or with a bbox instead of a cylinder
| |
| | |
| wwzone
| |
| bbox <Xmin> <Xmax> <Ymin> <Ymax> <Zmin> <Zmax>
| |
| zoneweapon <flagType> <lifetime> <X> <Y> <Z> <tilt> <direction> <shotID> <nowiki><DT></nowiki>
| |
| playermessage <message>
| |
| servermessage <message>
| |
| infomessage
| |
| repeat <seconds>
| |
| timedelay <seconds>
| |
| end
| |
| | |
| =Parameters=
| |
| | |
| ===bbox / cylinder===
| |
| | |
| | |
| These define the volume on the map that will trigger a world weapon whenever players enter it.
| |
| | |
| bbox <Xmin> <Xmax> <Ymin> <Ymax> <Zmin> <Zmax>
| |
| | |
| or
| |
| | |
| cylinder <X> <Y> <Zmin> <Zmax> <radius>
| |
| | |
| ===zoneweapon===
| |
| | |
| This defines the world weapon.<br />
| |
| | |
| zoneweapon <flagType> <lifetime> <X> <Y> <Z> <tilt> <direction> <shotID> <nowiki><DT></nowiki>
| |
| | |
|
| |
| <properties>
| |
| flagType=The [[FlagCode]] of the weapon to be used. This must be a valid weapon.
| |
| lifetime=Defines the lifetime of the weapon's shots in seconds.
| |
| X Y Z=The position of the weapon. The xy-plane is the ground, and z is up.
| |
| tilt=The tilt of the weapon, measured from the ground. Units are degrees.
| |
| direction=Defines the direction of the weapon in the xy-plane (the ground). Units are degrees.
| |
| shotID=All shots have an integer ID. This is the ID to be used for this shot. If this is 0, a shot ID will be automatically generated.
| |
| DT= Defines the initial delay time of the world weapon in seconds.
| |
| </properties>
| |
| | |
| ===playermessage===
| |
| | |
| If used (optional), this sends a custom message to a player when he or she triggers the world weapon.
| |
| | |
| playermessage "your message here"
| |
| | |
| ===servermessage===
| |
| | |
| If used (optional), this sends a custom message to all players when a world weapon is triggered.
| |
| | |
| servermessage "your message here"
| |
| | |
| ===infomessage===
| |
| | |
| If used (optional), this will issue a standard message to all players, stating which type of world weapon was triggered by whom. This message cannot be customized.
| |
| | |
| infomessage
| |
| | |
| ===repeat===
| |
| | |
| If used (optional), this will repeat weapon fire while a player is in the defined volume. The parameter <seconds> defines the repeat time of the weapon (minimum 0.1 seconds). If <seconds> not specified, the default is 0.5 seconds. If repeat is not included in definition, the weapon will only fire once when a player enters the zone.
| |
| | |
| repeat <seconds>
| |
| | |
| ===timedelay===
| |
| If used (optional), this will delay the initial fire of the world weapon by the specified number of seconds.
| |
| | |
| timedelay <seconds>
| |
| | |
| =Examples=
| |
| | |
| In the following example, a cuboid-shaped wwzone with the dimensions 50 x 50 x 1 and centered at (-50, 50, 1) is created. If a player remains in the defined zone for at least two seconds, a [[ShockWave]] weapon will fire in (approximately) 0.25 second intervals thereafter. The [[ShockWave]] world weapon is positioned at the coordinates (0, 0, 1), and the message, "You triggered Shockwave!" will be sent to the player who triggers it.
| |
| {|
| |
| |
| |
| wwzone
| |
| bbox -80 -30 -80 -30 0 2
| |
| zoneweapon SW 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0
| |
| playermessage "You triggered Shockwave!
| |
| repeat .25
| |
| timedelay 2
| |
| end
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| This will fire a laser in 0.5 second intervals while a player is in the volume defined by the bbox. In this example, the volume is a rectangular box with the dimensions 50 x 50 x 1 centered at the coordinates (50, 50, 1). The laser is positioned at the coordinates (5, 5, 1) and is tilted up 45 degrees from the xy-plane (the ground) with a heading of 25 degrees. When initially triggered, the message, "Laserz rule!" is sent to all players.

| |
| bbox 30 80 30 80 0 2
| |
| zoneweapon L 1 5 5 1 45 25 0 0
| |
| servermessage "Laserz rule!"
| |
| repeat
| |
| end
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| In this example, a cylindrical wwzone that fires a Guided Missile is defined. The defined volume has a radius of 20 [[World units]], a height of six, and is centered at the coordinates (50, -50, 3). The weapon is centered at (0, 0, 1) with both the tilt and heading set to 0 degrees. If a player remains in this volume for one second, the weapon will fire only once, and when it is triggered, the message, "GM triggered by <callsign>" is sent to all players.
