Thx for the info. Do you also know what i have to put elsewhere? for example in the matchsettings? i tried
<script_name>ShootMania\EliteExperimental.Script.txt</script_name> but it doesn't seem to work.

Why is this seem so difficult, I don't even see a royal script in the game modes.

So what to choose, no descriptions available in-game?? I can't even validate the map?

Besides, wouldn't it just be nice to have one program, listed here, that covers this all.

With one exe, that starts up a server, and you can edit the fields of what you like custom.
export/import script and it works. How many pages of references that I have to search
through, thats like half of a day of figuring it out? I wont touch this until its way simpler.

Another thing, I built a really cool map, you know how I like to custom edit, I get the job done, and this map
it even has a double pole knockout, yet now I can't even move after I select a script? No way to can't validate?

Even looking at the in-game dedication server, where can I add test bots in the validation so I can play?

:( Should this not be all built in-game?

Oh man, what a work-around to just get one setup, how many more to get others? I got to look everywhere for an answer for that to that to that, and eventually perhaps get lost and start all over again. FRUSTRATING. Can I even jump in-game underground if a script permits it, or perhaps there's a need to change gravity field, that normal???

How do I know what lil perks of tweak scripting did someone try implement to goad their stints? Just like watching a emotional flick then pity the wrong time, some mayfuck wants in the room to spill his beans about the latest frills of the pills. Oh damn shit, I didn't see that one coming or even knew that one existed, they sure did cover their ass there, Can you smell it in the room?

Hundreds of thousands of scripts later of more junk, comon, keep it simple.

Just letting off a little steam here, so not to take it personal, yet only if it applies.

:thumbsup: This is the first-time I am able to BUILD a map for a first person experience, WAY TO GO!

Look, maybe Iam wrong about the scripting idea, yet I know that validating a map should be one of the simplest things to do and to add in bots. So don't get me wrong here, just be careful. It be all fun and awhile, till someone gets hacked and new ways to cheat are implemented. So is to why to avoid the huge big mess in the first place, make it all editable fields in a in-game server page, keep the filter on, and restrict freebasing, or you get the next grow-worm eating up your space, because it was thought, it was "the next thing in" or oh cool, "I just wanted to see what it would do".

For the how many other excuses is there made to make it tolerable because your powerless to resist it, so you just go with the flow, or because the offer exceeds, then we all our poles are capped out and we're speaking gibberish, ie baby talk.

In Freelancer, there is a saying that goes with Zoners. If you see someone keep running into a planet..
whats wrong here. Its not a bowl there, to lick it clean. Have a hint & take some time to figure it out.
