TDM + timer, dead until next round?

[WolvesSoulZ]

Well I wondered if anyone could point me out on how I could add a round based respawn system in my gamemode?
Note that my gamemode is getting pretty complete, and I just really wondered on how to do that, as for now, I was just sticking with insta respawn and random spawnpoints.

With time.
Also, when someone die, he stay dead until the next round.

I tryed some things quite a while ago, but none ended working.
I know this would be easy on fretta, but I'm not using fretta.

Thanks.

(Also, my respawn point are alway random, and they don't respect my code.

function GM:GetSpawnPoints()
	combine_spawns = {}
	table.Add(combine_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_counterterrorist"))
	table.Add(combine_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_combine"))
	table.Add(combine_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_deathmatch"))
	table.Add(combine_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_axis"))
	
	rebel_spawns = {}
	table.Add(rebel_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_terrorist"))
	table.Add(rebel_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_rebel"))
	table.Add(rebel_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_deathmatch"))
	table.Add(rebel_spawns, ents.FindByClass("info_player_allies"))
end

Like someone in the rebel team, will end up respawning on the other team spawn, etc.)

Ok for the timer just make variable with the start round time then use a timer and take away 1 from it every second.
for checking if team has no players left use

and to check if they are alive use

Mhmh, an exemple would be greatly apreciated, as I'm really a novice in lua. Better with sweps, gamemode are sometime a pain to code.

[|King Flawless|]

If your asking me to code it for you its not going to happen

[WolvesSoulZ]

I'm not asking directly to you, I'm asking for someone that has a lil time to make a snippet of code just to show me how I would do so. I know some people are helpful here.

The best way to learn is by doing it your self

Actualy, no. Not everyone learn by error and try, I did that so many time for that damn timer and all, never got anything to work, so I'm asking on how to get it to work.

[|King Flawless|]

Well then find a gamemode doing what you want to do and rip the code because thats clearly what you want to do

[WolvesSoulZ]

Not what I want, I just want the basic on how to do so, and a bit explained.

Wow king Flawless why cant you just help him learn? I would if i was more advanced at lua, he doesnt want it completely done just a basic outline and he can do the rest

I'm not familiar with gamemodes, but wouldn't you just do something like this?

[lua]
function BlockingPlayerRespawn()
hook.Add( "PlayerSpawn", "BlockedPlayerRespawn", function()
return false end )
timer.Simple(600, function()
for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
v:Kill()
v:ChatPrint("This Round has ended")
end
timer.Simple(10, function()
hook.Remove("PlayerSpawn", "BlockedPlayerRespawn")
end)
end)
end
[/lua]

When this is executed it stops players respawning , then 10 minutes later it kills everyone and 10 seconds after this it allows everyone to spawn. I don't know if this would work properly, as I am not familiar with gamemodes, but I guess you can figure out how to adapt it.

Ooh yes I think I could easily make this fit into a gamemode, exactly what I was lookin' for! A good base to work on and manage to learn out on how I could have done it.

Thanks alot!

I wondered something too, does it start again once player respawn? I'm unsure about where I could call it so it repeat, but I'll try somethings.

[sintwins]

This will give players 10 seconds to respawn and then start again.
[lua]
function BlockingPlayerRespawn()
hook.Add( "PlayerSpawn", "BlockedPlayerRespawn", function()
return false end )
timer.Simple(600, function()
for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
v:Kill()
v:ChatPrint("This Round has ended")
end
timer.Simple(10, function()
hook.Remove("PlayerSpawn", "BlockedPlayerRespawn")
timer.Simple(10, function()
BlockingPlayerRespawn()
end)
end)
end)
end
