Hy,
i search for the right replacements for my OSP/BattleX "say_team" binds.
Hope you could give me some advices here. So far I found in the Docu,
the tags for "$(ammo), $(armor), $(health), $(location)" but how can
I access the default tags other Mods are using? Are they missing?

I miss something like:

  • $(item) = a item i directly look at (other mods #i)
  • $(past_item) = a item I just took (other mods #p)
  • $(friend) = the nearest team made (other mods #f)
Then I'm able communicate as good as in OSP, but with Excessive Plus. :)Is this already possible .. or will this be soon possible? Help me, please.

For eg:

"say_team ^5 <-- [^3i COVER ^5$(friend) ^1(H:$(health) A:$(armor))^5]^7"
"say_team ^5 <-- (^3$(friend)^5) [ ^3I need HELP ^1(H:$(health) A:$(armor))^5]^7"
"say_team ^5 <-- [^1 $(past_item) ^5] ^3taken ^5(H:$(health) A:$(armor))^7"
"say_team ^5 <-- [^1 $(item) ^5] ^3available ^5(H:$(health) A:$(armor))^7"

Hy Bozo,

the world is small .. I could expect you here.
THX for your support for the idea or variables.
So, if I get it right .. that is not available jet?

bind X "say_team ^5enemy at ^1$(location)!"

i think, u dont need more information within the game!
the game is too fast to read it all.-

^5enemy at ...is blue

^1$(location) ...is red

if u know the map and its locations
u just need a quick look to know, where the enemy is ...
and can decide to go there or not!

Hy *ZMB*INSANEKID* & CSM>HOLLOW,

thanks for your valuably feedback for this issue.

But if you play that "fast game" as team you need a very
clear communication to be successful. Because of the game
is so quick, it's important to be precise and remove all kind
of guesswork. Just claiming a position of an enemy - is by far
not enough - when you come to CTF or TDM. I'm very sure you
know that even better than I do, as you seem to be long time
member here.

Imagine you took accidentally a Mega and would like to share
that with your defense players .. how would you do this now?
Or you spotted a red shild for your flag carrier you are escorting,
how would you communicate that well .. via location?

If you would like to support some one or you need support how
do say that with the current possibilities of the mod? Just
cry "HELP!" wouldn't do the job, in a good organised team with
fixed positions and clear orders. You need to be precise here!

All in all those are just three (existing) variables.
No one will force you to use those if you dislike them. Happy

Sure, no harm will be done but its far from an essential feature for e+. I assume you've played a bit of this mod and therefore know that there is a lot of rapid movement involved - especially CTF. If you haven't, here is a little taster of what to expect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjZfVcFJnO8.
Stop, read and digest? I don't think so Happy Being "precise" and limiting "guesswork" will probably increase your chances of losing in e+.
