GiveUp as reset to spawn (TM2)

[BigBang1112]

Hello
I'm asking again a very simple thing, but I just can't find it ANYWHERE.
Which functions should I use to get GiveUp event work as in TM solo or TimeAttack in custom gamemode?
I looked at Platform mode, TimeAttack mode which got these working, there's almost nothing seen about it.

Can ya help me? Thanks for any answers.

This enumerator defines all kinds of respawn events handling possible:

Code: Select all

CTmMode::ETMRespawnBehaviour {
    Normal,
    DoNothing,
    GiveUpBeforeFirstCheckPoint,
    AlwaysGiveUp
}

To get it working you need to change this variable:

Code: Select all

ETMRespawnBehaviour CTmMode::RespawnBehaviour

Quick summary of all respawn buttons behaviours:

• Normal - Backspace always fires "Respawn" and Delete always fires "GiveUp" (Rounds mode behaviour, also used for Pursuit)
• DoNothing - Nothing is fired
• GiveUpBeforeFirstCheckPoint - Both buttons fire "GiveUp", except that Backspace fires "Respawn" if player crossed at least one checkpoint (TimeAttack mode behaviour)
• AlwaysGiveUp - Both buttons always fire "GiveUp"

Well, I didnt mean that exactly,
I already set this variable to AlwaysGiveUp, but how do I get the player to spawn again and not became spectator?

Code: Select all

foreach (Player in Players) if (TM2::IsWaiting(Player)) TM2::StartRace(Player);

This will spawn all players that are not spawned yet.

It kind of works, but the player is frozen with ??? time.
I bet it's some simple function again, but I can't find it anywhere xD

Make sure that you have set this after starting map:

Code: Select all

UIManager.UIAll.UISequence = CUIConfig::EUISequence::Playing;

It might also be a problem in this case:

Code: Select all

Now > CutOffTimeLimit

There shouldn't be problem when you set it to:

Code: Select all

CutOffTimeLimit = -1

I'm here from the future.
I found the best way to do the respawn technique.

Code: Select all

while(!ServerShutdownRequested) {
  foreach (Player in Players)
    if(PlayersWaiting.exists(Player))
      SpawnPlayer(Player,0,Now + 3000);
}

No need to include any library with this way.
