search self thread zombie_damage_failsafe(); in zombiemodespawner and add
Code Snippet
Plaintext
self thread check_distance();

then add this to the bottom of the file
Code Snippet
Plaintext
check_distance()
{
while(1)
{
all_players = GetPlayers();
for(i = 0; i < all_players.size; i++)
{
zombie_distance = Distance(all_players[i].origin, self.origin);
if( zombie_distance >= level.max_dist_for_respawn)
{
self.too_far_away = true;
}
else
{
self.too_far_away = false;
break;
}
}

if(self.too_far_away == true)
{
self dodamage((self.health * 100), self.origin);
//level.zombie_total++; //May not work when the round_spawning function in zombiemode.gsc has finished it's while flow
//Could try making a seperate spawn script to spawn a zombie before killing this one which would keep the wave alive.
}

wait 1;
}
}
and add this
Code Snippet
Plaintext
	level.max_dist_for_respawn = 2000;

under this
Code Snippet
Plaintext
init()
{
just need to spawn the other zombie closer to the player good luck dual :P
This does kill the zombies when you get far enough away but doesn't spawn the zombies In the current zone the player Is In

The zombies die and the round doesn't end but the zombies also don't respawn even when standing In a zone how would I make the spawners trigger when a player gets close to them?

Here's my progress on my version of the respawn which I've coded into the round_spawning under zombiemode think with additional functions to making this work.

For testing I set the distance to 1000 and so far there seems to be no glitches in the process however I did this without playable_area also so I need to also make sure zombie deaths by distance don't spawn powerups.

DuaLVII - Respawn Test



Edit: This will run with zones so they will respawn to a zone a player is in, I'm just using one zone on this at the moment.

Some zombies that respawned weren't following the player Is that because there were no nodes? Looks good

Not that there were no nodes there was just no exterior goal for them to go to, but it works.

Update, All issues I was having before are fixed and powerups don't spawn on zombie deaths from distance.
Just going to do a hard test on it before sending it out.

I've done a hard test on this script with zombie spawn delays of 0.1 and wait between rounds as 5 seconds and all worked really well.

I've harshly modified the round_spawning feature which delayed me putting this out for a little while because if round_spawning was to bug out in higher waves it could go terribly wrong so it shouldn't do this.

I won't put this up as a tutorial for now until it's properly tested so consider it as a beta.



Open up _zombiemode.gsc and search for `level.overridePlayerDamage = ::player_damage_override;` around line 103.
Below add the following;
Code Snippet
Plaintext
level.zombies_to_add = 0;

Next find `round_spawning()` around line 1435.
Replace the whole round_spawning() function with this;
Code Snippet
Plaintext
round_spawning()
{
level endon( "intermission" );
/#
level endon( "kill_round" );
#/

if( level.intermission )
{
return;
}

if( level.enemy_spawns.size < 1 )
{
ASSERTMSG( "No spawners with targetname zombie_spawner in map." );
return;
}

/#
if ( GetDVarInt( "zombie_cheat" ) == 2 || GetDVarInt( "zombie_cheat" ) >= 4 )

if( multiplier < 1 )

multiplier = 1;
}

// After round 10, exponentially have more AI attack the player
if( level.round_number >= 10 )
{
multiplier *= level.round_number * 0.15;
}

player_num = get_players().size;

if( player_num == 1 )
{
max += int( ( 0.5 * level.zombie_vars["zombie_ai_per_player"] ) * multiplier );
}
else
{
max += int( ( ( player_num - 1 ) * level.zombie_vars["zombie_ai_per_player"] ) * multiplier );
}

Below the end of the round_spawning function, Add these 4 functions in;

Code Snippet

iPrintLn("zombie_total is set to " + level.zombie_total);
}
return max;
}

}
}
}

}
}

Save the _zombiemode.gsc and then open up your _zombiemode_spawner.gsc
Search for `zombie_can_drop_powerups( zombie )` and replace the function with this;

Code Snippet
Plaintext
zombie_can_drop_powerups( zombie )
{
if( zombie.damageweapon == "zombie_cymbal_monkey" || isDefined(zombie.kill_and_replace) && zombie.kill_and_replace == true )
{
return false;
}

return true;
}
