Spawn points

Would it be possible to implement a tweak to our mod that would allow the player to choose where they will spawn upon entering the game? It could really help the RP environment.

Good call, my former Padawan...

Eventhough it won't be 'useful' in our map, as all spawn points will be in the Hangar... but it could be interesting for Missions and such.

Is it possible to create account-dependent spawnpoints?

Padawan-accounts and Student-accounts, for example, spawn in the dormitories. Master- and Knight-accounts in their dormitory or in other places (dojo, etc.)

Players with no account will join in the hangar.

That would be realistic.

I like that idea, cause first of all we arent all going to be flying in, and secondly we might just have had a nap or some thing

Impressive, I must agree... I'll make sure to have spawns at the Dormitary then...

Ok, I implemented Lynee's suggestion about rank-dependant spawnpoints. Corinth's suggestion about being able to choose where to spawn is a bit too difficult, I think (it would require support in the UI, to display a global view of the map with spawnpoints, or at least coordinates... hm

)

So now a spawnpoint can be specific to one rank. Any player of this rank will spawn on one of the corresponding spawnpoints (depending on the distance and avoiding to telefrag someone). If there is no corresponding spawnpoint, he'll spawn on a standard one (or one with a rank equal to 0).

For Axem: this applies to the info_player_start and info_player_deathmatch entities (they are the same anyway). You have to add a "rank" key, and its value must be between 0 and 5 (0 = no rank, 1 = initiate, 2 = padawan, 3 = knight, 4 = master, 5 = council).

That's an awesome idea, should definitely make RP more RPish. ((if that even makes sense)) Good thinking, Master Corinth!

As always, impressive work, Knight Raun.

And yes, good thinking, Corinth.
