Beta 11 up. I have not copied anything from SVN since B10.

Patch partially applied. I don't agree with splitting G_Damage causing the same code to be in more places and therefore being harder to edit.
Fixed some bugs and fixed the bugs caused be fixing bugs.
No more defense bonus if you are the offensive team in Oneway CTF elimination.
Some bot changes. Bots can now coordinate in Double Domination.
Changed bot strategy in Oneway CTF. Although I the default strategy might actually be more effective.

I'm going back to the studies this Monday, so don't expect frequent updates after that.

I'm currently merging Standard Domination into the svn version. Expect a beta 12 soon.

EDIT:

It is out.
There is a dom_test map included for the sole purpose to show that it works.
No personal scores and the bots only take points if they are convenient.
Domination Point A is used for standard domination points.
No UI

It should be possible to add Domination support to most DM maps.


I found a bug in Elimination that I have not fixed yet:
Then dead and player spectating the bar will always be your team color. I know why... because I created the bug to fix an even more serious bug (game play affecting) but I have not found a solution that does not create an even bugger bug.

Unless I am completely missing what you are doing with the ai, you aren't making a captured domination point an inventory item which is preventing giving each bot an individual weight for any domination point.  This also prevents making the bots on the blue team go after the red team's captured domination points, and vice versa which makes the ai kinda bad in domination.

For the fuzzy weights to work properly the captured domination points need to be an inventory item, though a non-existent inventory item that doesn't preclude picking up any other inventory item, obviously.

Code:
code/game/g_team.c: In function 'Team_Dom_SpawnPoints':
code/game/g_team.c:697: warning: 'flag' may be used uninitialized in this function

Code:
code/game/g_team.c: In function 'Team_Dom_SpawnPoints':
code/game/g_team.c:697: warning: 'flag' may be used uninitialized in this function

and can you PLEASE start uploading monolithic diff files instead of uploading source, it makes applying your changes much easier.

I will do.

Just one question:
Is patches supposed to be from last version or from original?

Changes from your last version would be much easier to implement, also I should have the ui changes for domination done sometime this week.

Beta 13 is out. I have not done any bot coding as I had hoped I would, but fixed some bugs/features that really annoyed me. A single annoying bug is still there: round start time is not sent to remote players after map change.

A diff is included B12 -> B13

Changelog:
Fixed player bar color when spectating in Elimination/CTF Elimination (annoyed me for some time)
Lives are now showed in LMS instead of "*DEAD*" (not really that annoying but nice to know)
No shaking camera then hit in LMS, Elimination, CTF Elimination. It is mostly noticed in overtime in LMS. The feature remains in all other gametypes.
Prevent elimination warmup CVARs from taking bad values. (bug found by w1zrd)

You have a bug in gt_lms that allows brushes, triggers, etc. marked to spawn only in team games to spawn in gt_lms.

I've attached a small map that demonstrates the bug.

Code:
/g_gametype 10
/devmap crap

then walk straight forward, the trigger push should only spawn in team based games.

The diff file is a fix for the bug.

(thanks for uploading the diff, btw)

We'll upload this with the latest changes shortly, it's always things that occurs in live-environments that never happens in testing.
Great job with the updates..

Also you should port your code to the latest ioq3 rev as they've added some safe guards to the stack on non-x86, non mac platforms which will be a nice thing for the people using the BSD and Open Solaris ports of the game.

I love this mod! Great job! Only one problem:

(I am on Linux, btw) For whatever reason, I can only use this by putting the elimination.pk3 into my /baseoa (not /baseoa/Elimination B13/) which makes it so it isn't a mod but a part of openarena, and then when I do that, I can't use any of the extra maps provided. This means I can't use Double Domination or CTF Elimination. Please help.

EliminationB13 should be outside of baseoa, just unzip the mod in the openarena-0.7 folder

There are no extra maps included. CTF Elimination can be played on most CTF maps but must be started from console. There are currently no maps in OA that works well with Double Domination

Hi there

Is there a complete list of the g_gametype cvars for this mod and what map supports which?

The mod is great btw - I am using it to recreate a Rocket Arena server (without the multiple arenas per map) and elimination seems to fit the bill with the self/team damage off etc.

Cheers
Dave

I have added the gametype numbers to the wiki: (DO NOT LINK) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Gametype

About maps:
Elimination: All DM, CTF maps with enough team respawn points. (CBCTF1 does not have enough)
CTF Elimination: CTF maps with enough respawn points.
LMS: All DM maps

There are currently no maps in OA suited for Double Domination and Domination. Double Domination can be played on 13ctf2 from Quake III Arena but that is only because all the DM spawn points are placed near the center of the map.

Domination also needs more work, you currently win a round without capturing all of the points.  See islanddm from the svn for testing.

<edit>
It also seems kinda silly to not use info_player_deathmatch spawn points in normal domination.

Thanks, I didn't even think to look there as it is a mod, sorry about that.

That is a bug. I didn't notice until you said it, but it was supposed to be like that. I should have tested on a map with team spawn points.

Quick question again..

What does the g_rockets cvar do? (I tried searching the Wiki)

For what I need, the elimination gametype, 200 ammo for all weapons and no self/team damage seems to be doing enough, but I spotted that I currently have g_rockets set to 0 and wondered what impact this has.

**Edit**

I just spotted that it makes a Nexuis style RA...Having never played Nexuis, I still don't understand it - sorry....

Cheers

Beta 13 is out. I have not done any bot coding as I had hoped I would, but fixed some bugs/features that really annoyed me. A single annoying bug is still there: round start time is not sent to remote players after map change.

Another bug in gt_lms, it is being initialized as a team game.  When single player is active it's a one line fix in G_InitGame of game/g_main.c

Code:
// make sure we have flags for CTF, etc
if( g_gametype.integer >= GT_TEAM && g_gametype.integer != GT_LMS ) {
G_CheckTeamItems();
}

This doesn't fix the fact that the game type doesn't leave the warmup stage, from games.log after a single player lms game:

Code:

Basically the lms warmup kills g_warmup which is set in the skirmish menu of the missionpack, there are two ways to fix this: remove the lms warmup or set g_warmup to 0 in the skirmish menu for lms (the easy way out, not sure how attached people are to the warmup period).

Hopefully my last question....

Still hoping someone can define to me what g_rockets does...but is there a way to disable falling damage too?

Cheers - Should stop bugging you all now...Servers are running sweet, just trying to clear some things up in my mind..
