New page

==Spiderholes==
Spiderholes can be set up a few different ways, but in this example map we’ll focus on the ones that are set up entirely in Radiant. You'll need a few components, so I'll lay them out for you in the steps below. There are several spiderhole "behaviors" that you can use:

*'''jump_out''' – This causes the enemy to jump out of the spiderhole and either charge at the player or go to his targeted cover node, (more on this later).
*'''stumble_out''' – Just like jump_out but the enemy will stumble a bit, giving the player an opportunity to take him out easier.
*'''grenade_toss''' – The enemy will peek out of the hole, toss a grenade, and then randomly choose between jump_out and stumble_out behavior.
*'''gun_spray''' – The enemy will blindly spray his gun in an effort to surprise the player, after which he will choose between jump_out and stumble_out behavior.
*'''jump_attack''' – The enemy will just toss open the cover and stay inside the spiderhole firing his weapon. He will never leave the spiderhole.
 
'''''Setting Up a Spiderhole:'''''
 
:1. Place the spiderhole base model into your map as a misc_model:
::*Model: '''static_okinawa_spiderhole_base'''

:2. Place the spiderhole lid into the map as a script_model and give it the exact same origin & angles as the spiderhole base placed in step 1.
::*Model: '''okinawa_spiderhole_lid or okinawa_spiderhole_lid_tall'''

:3. Select the spiderhole lid and enter the following key/value pair:
::Key: '''script_noteworthy'''
::Value: '''spiderhole_lid'''

:4. Place a script_struct into the map and give it the exact same origin & angles as the spiderhole lid and base. By now, it should look something like the picture below:
 
[[Image:Image001.png]]

 

:5. Place an appropriate Japanese actor into the map, (i.e. '''actor_axis_jap_guard_type99riflebayonet'''). Make sure to check the spawner checkbox. Below are the values you can use to set up the spawner correctly for spiderhole use:
::Key: '''script_spiderhole'''
::Desc: '''This tells the spawner system that this guy should use spiderhole behavior.'''
::Value: '''1'''

::Key: '''script_spiderhole_anim'''
::Desc: '''This tells the spiderhole scripts which behavior to use.'''
::Value '''The possible values are listed below:'''
:::*'''jump_out'''
:::*'''grenade_toss'''
:::*'''gun_spray'''
:::*'''stumble_out'''
:::*'''jump_attack'''

::Key: '''script_spiderhole_charge'''
::Desc: '''Determines if the guy should attempt to Banzai charge the nearest player, (not valid for jump_attack). The spawner can optionally have cover nodes targeted, so if he does not Banzai attack, he can jump out and run to his targeted node.'''
::Value: '''Integer from 0-100. (A value of 0 and the guy will not charge. A value of 100 will make hm charge 100% of the time). Values less than 100 should have the spawner targeting a node so he doesn't just jump out and stand there.'''

::Key: '''script_delay_min'''
::Desc: '''Minimum amount of time to wait before spawning.'''
::Value: '''float value'''

::Key: '''script_delay_max'''
::Desc: '''Maximum amount of time to wait before spawning'''
::Value: '''float value'''

:6. Now we need to link everything together:
::a. '''Select the spawner, then select the spiderhole lid and press '''''W''''' to target the spawner to the lid.'''
::b. '''Select the spawner, then select the script_struct and press '''''W''''' to target the spawner to the struct.'''
::c. '''Select the spawner and optionally target a node you want the guy to run to once he gets out of the spiderhole.'''

:7. Place a trigger in the map that you want the spiderholes to be spawned from. Select the trigger and select the spawner and press '''W''' to target the spawner from the trigger. Make sure to check the "'''TRIGGER_SPAWN'''" checkbox for the trigger.

:8. That's it for the Radiant setup. The final setup should look soemthing like this pic below: (trigger targets the spawner, spawner targets both the lid & the script_struct).

:9. The last step is to make sure you've got all the required elements in your level zone file,(.csv), and your level script file, (.gsc).
::*Put the following lines into the .csv file. The include files and _spiderhole_util.gsc are provided for you in the example_ambush.zip archive .

:::*'''rawfile,maps/_spiderhole_util.gsc'''
:::*'''include,spiderholes'''
:::*'''include,bayonet'''
:::*'''include,common_banzai'''
:::*'''xmodel,viewmodel_usa_marine_arms'''
:::*'''xmodel,viewmodel_usa_marine_player'''

::*Add the following lines of script to your level script '''BEFORE''' the call to _load::main()
:::*'''maps\_spiderhole_util::init_spiderholes();'''
:::*'''maps\_banzai::init();'''

''That's it! Now you should have everything you need to get the spiderholes working.''
