[WIP] Precipice

It's an intentional easter egg, and will only activate if a player stands in front of each -redacted- for more than 10 seconds, if I remember correctly. It is indeed inspired by that prank, and a similar prank Inferno placed in another CE map- I can't remember which one. The best part is, it fits in the existing tag space, and I even have a little bit more for further small additions.

Inferno's version is a billion times better than the cat spray.

And room for more Easter eggs? Awesome!:woop:

Once again, make sure that those easter eggs don't mess up the gameplay as teh secret room in yoyorast 1 !!!11oneONE which makes everyone cease-fire and go into ze room not actually playing the game, make it devmode-only plz!


Awesome map by the way. :neckbeard:

It must be in the release, sorry silicon!!

Any and all easter eggs will be either completely out of the way of normal gameplay, or difficult enough to trigger that it would take coordination between multiple smart people to do it. There won't be any solo idiots running around looking for easter eggs. Hopefully.

The only ester egg I want to see in game right now is Mega Kotick XD

Any other easter eggs are things like the credits plaque, some flood behind windows, that sort of thing. Theoretically it should affect gameplay in any way. Also, the Kotick thing can only be triggered once per game. That way even if someone is determined to set it off every game, it'll only mess with people for a minute or two.

Edit: Inferno wanted me to post the script for syncing the beam emitter.

Code:

---

((script continuous "detect_beam"
(if ( = is_host true)
(begin
        (if ( and ( >= (device_get_position beam_emit) 0.92 ) ( <= (device_get_position beam_emit) 0.95 ) )
        (begin
        (sv_say "beam emit sync period! 0.92 - 0.95 / latency 0.07")
        (object_teleport beam_hog beam_flag)
        (sleep 60)
        (object_teleport beam_hog beam_flag_2)
        )
        )
)
)
)

(script continuous "sync_beam"
(if ( = is_host false)
(begin
        (if ( <= (unit_get_health beam_biped) 0.1 )
                (begin (device_set_position_immediate beam_emit 0) (device_set_position_immediate beam_dummy 0) (sleep -1) )
        )
)
)
)

It's a biped crush system that activates every time the beam gets close to finishing its animation, and then when the biped is crushed the players all have their beams reset to match the host.

It's not like the map would be played otherwise. at this point Ce maps are nothing more than art. All serious competitive play has died out long ago.

Yeah, it's really for art and fun. The easter eggs are for further entertainment, and the gameplay is so that for those few occasions when there are actually people playing on it the map will still be fun.

fuck that, ill be trying to find people to play an accual game on this once its released :)
