Spawning Sackbots on command in Arena Lvl?

Archive: 4 posts


Can Sackbots be spawned on command in an Arena Lvl?

Was trying with counter hooked directly into Spawn point because it was linked to another event, Bot spawned as soon as level started. My end goal is to control and spawn Sackbots on command (linked to an event/ destruction probably) and have them defeated and move on - so they never spawn again.

Would this work better with a Sequencer?

Also can they be given Custom Karts? Will a Sackbot know how to fire with a Custom Weapon button control?

Thanx,
Maxx

I'm not sure about spawning on command, I'd have to mess with that myself.
I'm pretty sure they can be given custom karts and fire with custom controls (see the story minigame "Monster Trucks)

To my knowledge you can't just stop a sackbot from spawning unless all of the spawn points are deactivated, if not he'll just pop out of a different one.2014-07-31 19:31:00

You can use the Spawn logic, set to no respawn on their spawn point, with a reset sensor, and have them force reset immediately after game start (like with a timer set to .1s linked into a spawn logic on forced reset). Wait until the appropriate events with a trigger (tag or transmitter based on a counter and a sensor) or a sequencer or a timer or whatever, and have that turn off the spawn block (AND and NOT logics plugged to the spawn blocker). You should be able to choose if a spawn point is AI or player only, I think, otherwise, it tends to send players to the same few spawn points for some reason even though its supposed to be random.

You can make those specific spawn points spawn with a custom kart, and you can equip them with specific weapons with the weapon giver on the spawn point, but I don't know if they would use specialized controls like attacks not from the weaponator. Hasn't worked in my experience.
