[ZM] [Release] Remove Perk Limit

[Pistakilla]

I've subtracted self.num_perks to 5 upon a player's spawn. That way whenever the player spawns they would start off with self.num_perks = -5 which according to vending_think(), the thread will revert back to the start when self.num_perks = 4; each perk you buy will add the variable to 1. With the change I propose, after buying 4 perks would total the variable to -1. So long as the variable does not equal 4, you can buy as many perks as you want.

Apply this equation to make it easier:

(x * -1) + 4 = Amount of perks to buy on the map

Where (in this case) x = -5 and according to the equation, it will equal 9. The only exception is that x must equal a negative number.

TL;DR

just make a custom script and add self.num_perks to a negative number in onPlayerSpawned()

init()
{
	thread onPlayerConnect();
}

onPlayerConnect()
{
	for(;;)
	{
		level waittill ("connecting", player);

		player thread onPlayerSpawned();
	}
}

onPlayerSpawned()
{
	for(;;)
	{
		self waittill("spawned_player");

		self.num_perks = -5; //Remove perk limit, must be a negative number

	}
}

Ezentru map?? do i put it in mods or do i create a new folder and name it maps??

[Ezentru]

BigMacJr yeah create new folder named maps and put file in there.

Alternatively, follow the reply above yours' instructions to achieve the same result as my script. If you use their script instead, copy my version of code into a text file, change the extension of the file to .gsc and then place the file in the following directory: \AppData\Local\Plutonium\storage\t5\scripts\sp

Note: The reason you wanna use this version is because if you put his file where you are supposed to put it (\AppData\Local\Plutonium\storage\t5\scripts\sp\zom), it wont execute the script. and if you put it in sp, then it executes before you are even in a game. Adding that check for whether you are in "zombiemode" makes it so it executes and doesnt crash game upon launch.

init()
{
        if ( GetDvar( #"zombiemode" ) == "1" )
        {
            level thread onPlayerConnect();
        }
            
}

onPlayerConnect()
{
	for(;;)
	{
		level waittill ("connecting", player);

		player thread onPlayerSpawned();
	}
}

onPlayerSpawned()
{
	for(;;)
	{
		self waittill("spawned_player");

		self.num_perks = -5; //Remove perk limit, must be a negative number

	}
}

I managed to get replace func to work on this function.

[Aoteruz]

Would it work if I put it in T6/script and create a map folder? Or is this for bo1 only?

[Pistakilla]

@Avengeful_Gaming Would work for bo2, but there's already an easier way to do so.

Ezentru im a bit new to pc modding so this might be a bit of a stupid question but where is appdata?

[Ezentru]

@mr_foxinator easiest way to get to it is pressing the windows key + R, and then typing %appdata%.

[X2BelchLord]

Ezentru thank you : )

[shwdrrrrrr]

@mr_foxinator windows + r
type "%appdata%"
and there you go
