Multi Knife Showing in leader window.

I run my server where the final level is knife, of course, but people whom get to knife need to get 3 knife kills to win. Currently the way it's setup if a person has 2 knife kills and gets knifed by some one whom can steal a level they drop all the way back to nade. My question is two fold

    1. Can it an addon be written to allow some one who is on knife level to only go back one knife if they are knifed on their 2nd level?
    2. Is it possible to some how let people know which level of the knife people are on? Right now the only way people know is by the person talking [CENSORED] over their mic and announcing it. lol Like would it be possible to show the other user that they're on knife 1, 2, etc etc and maybe even have a sound file that says "Player is on knife level 1" "Player is on knife level2" etc etc. Maybe it could just be the numbers added in at the end since it already says "player is on knife level" have a second trigger that announces the number after.

Sorry for the late reply. I've been wanting to test some things out, but my server system is still down for the count :(

I do have one quick question. How do you have multiple Knife Levels set up? Do you have:or:
knife
knife
knife
at the bottom of your weapon order.

I believe with the second one, it 'should' only level you down 1 level.

Np,I trust you saw my PM? I know how hectic things can be sometimes and I appreciate your time.

I am doing 3 knives like this:if I set it up like this:
knife
knife
knife
The server only registers one knife and doesn't make people get 3 knives. For some reason GG won't see knife being listed in the file 3 times.

Even if I could get this to work, I'd still be running into the issue of having people not know what knife level people are on, as the only thing they could go by is the level number. hmmmm

Ok, I'll have to look more into this when I get the chance. The way it 'should' work is the second way, with 3 different "knife" entries in the weapon_order. Using "knife 3" is really only 1 Knife Level, just with a multikill of 3 needed. Once we can get the 3 different knife entries to work correctly, it would be fairly easy to create a custom addon that checks the weapon_order for it, and send messages/sounds when the first knife levels are reached.

Yeah I tried looking around for why it wasn't working with 3 knives listed separately but as I fail at code, lol, I found nothing.

Thanx for the help man. I'm gonna send you a PM too with something to look over. :)

Hmmm, I looked at the code, and it looked perfectly fine, and the following 'should' work:
knife
knife
knife
So, I decided to run a quick test with some bots, and sure enough, it worked perfectly. Could you retry that to fully verify it does/doesn't work for you? Please let us know your results.

I played the game out, with bots, and it took me 1 knife to win, went to the next map and again 1 knife to win.

Hmmm, well, it works for me. When I first load GunGame, it shows the weapon_order correctly:
[GunGame] Weapon Order: default_weapon_order

[GunGame] |  21   |     1     |          m249 |

[GunGame] |  23   |     1     |         knife |
[GunGame] |  24   |     1     |         knife |
[GunGame] |  25   |     1     |         knife |
[GunGame] +-------+-----------+---------------+
As well as in-game, it shows the correct weapons:

I'm not sure how I can really tinker around. It 'should' just work. Are you sure you are modifying the correct weapon_order file?

Yes sir, I edited the default_weapon_order.txt

Just figured you might be able to run some commands or something to check stuff out in there. Here, this may be more helpful.
gungame51.rar
complete rar of my /cfg/gungame51 directory.

Maybe one of the customs addons isn't playing nice or the combination of reg addons I'm using the server doesn't like.

Yep, it is definitely something in your configs. All I did was replace your configs with mine, and change that default_weapon_order to the 3 different knife entries, and it does just as you said. I'll have to look through and see if I can find out what is causing the conflict. I'll get back with you when I get it figured out.

ok thanx again

Found it:
..cfg/gungame51/gg_en_config.cfg wrote:// ============================================================================
// >> WEAPON ORDER SORT TYPE
// ============================================================================
// Options:
// #default = Order will go Top -> Bottom.
// #reversed = Order will go Bottom -> Top.
// #random = Order will be randomly shuffled.
// Note:
// #reversed and #random sort types will move hegrenade and knife levels
// to the end of the order.
// Default Value: "#default"

// The order in which the weapons and levels will be sorted.
gg_weapon_order_sort_type "#random"
Setting that back to #default made there be 3 knife levels. I know that isn't ideal, but for now, just know that that is what is causing the issue.

hmm, so there is a problem with the random eh? That stinks. We like the random. :(

Knowing you though you're probably already digging through the code trying to figure out why. LOL

Lol, yup, already got a fix. Not sure if it has any negative effects, though, so we'll probably need to do some more testing before releasing it.

Any word on knife level announces, or for that matter nade level announces?

Player is on Nade/Knife Level 1
Player is on Nade/Knife Level 2
Player is on Nade/Knife Level 3
etc
etc

When I get time, I'll work on a custom addon for that. It will have annoncements and sounds built in as options.
