SAPP

[{XG}Gijs007]

I got it! It was the quotes I had around the game type! SAPP DOESN'T LIKE QUOTES!

On another note: so how does map voting work exactly? Lets say I have 10 options in mapvotes.txt, but specify max_votes as 5, does it pick 5 options randomly to show at the end of the match?

Also why is it that sometimes the map voting options are displayed twice consecutively, flooding the chat?

That's correct, SAPP picks 5 random maps at the end of the match.
As for your issue with double vote options, I've never seen that before, are you sure you don't have multiple entries in your mapvote.txt?

so i started halo for the first time in a long time the other day. i joined a server that mentioned SAPP. it said it had no-lead enabled, but it seemed like i still had to lead. so whats the deal with that? do i need something installed for that to work? or was that server just not set up correctly?

SAPP's no lead mod isn't perfect IMHO (since halo's netcode is still shit), but it could also be the server being set up incorrectly.

Question:

I want to spawn a sniper rifle at the bases of Icefield.

So I create the following command in commands.txt

icesnipe 'say * "DEBUG: Sniper spawned";spawn weap "weapons\sniper  rifle\sniper rifle" icebluebase; spawn weap "weapons\sniper rifle\sniper  rifle" iceredbase; w8 30; despawn g 0;despawn g 1;wait 50;icesnipe' 4

Add this in events.txt

event_start $map:icefields 'icesnipe'

And locations.txt

icefields:iceredbase:21.017452 -13.972477 0.000000
icefields:icebluebase:-72.007332 76.430954 0.000000

Now my problem is that the event "icesnipe" doesn't stop when a new map is loaded.

So I would need an eventstop command like so:

event_end $map:icefields 'eventstop 9'

Possible?

Try using the $map:icefields in your command in the commands.txt
