GunGame 5 Forums

There was a fairly major change in this version that I wanted to make a thread about. All (well, almost all, there are a few exceptions) messages that used to automatically be sent by GunGame, have now been moved into 3 different new Included Addons.

gg_leader_messages:
These are the messages sent when there is a change at the leader position. Leader changes include the current leader leveling up, another player tying the current leader(s), and a current leader disconnecting.

gg_level_info:
This is the hudhint information players recieve when they spawn and when they level up. Information includes player's current level, player's current weapon, player's current multikill count, total kills required for current level, current leader, current leader level, and the total levels in the match. Players will also be sent a message notifying when they have increased their current multikill count, and show how many kills are required for their current level.

gg_winner_messages:
These are the messages sent to player's toptext, centermessage, and chat areas when a player has won the round/match.

By default, these, like all other included addons, are off. You will want to go to your server's ../cfg/gungame51/included_addon_configs/ folder to turn them on.

just one Quick ? is the gg_winnner_messages the same as the Winner_display

No. The custom addon Winner Display shows a MOTD window with more information than just "PlayerX won the game!". Winner Messages is just the original functionality that used to be automatically sent by GunGame by default. The only real difference now is that you can turn that functionality off.

This is great

I went ahead and stickied this thread. So, if anyone sees someone else ask about where the messages went, please post a link to this thread.

Thanks,

I'm liking that people can choose which of these to use now. Good stuff
