[Release] [Zombies] "Custom Survival Maps" option for custom games

dontknowletspl

Monologue There is no guide for this. Map is picked by dvar "CUSTOM_MAP" so you have to either make script which changes this dvars value or manually set it in config.

This is my map rotation script. (This might not be correct because on my server is more maps and i had to cut out some of the code)

main()
{
    if(getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP_ENABLED") != "1" )
		setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 1 );
        
    thread map_rotation();
}

map_rotation()
{
	level waittill( "end_game");
	wait 2;
    setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP_ENABLED", 1 );
    
    if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "1")
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 2 );

    else if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "2" )
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 3 );

    else if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "3" )
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 4 );

    else if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "4" )
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 5 );

    else if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "5" )
    {
        SetDvar("sv_maprotation","exec zm_classic_prison.cfg map zm_prison");
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 6 );
    }
    else if( getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "6" )
    {
        SetDvar("sv_maprotation","exec zm_classic_prison.cfg map zm_prison");
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 7 );
    }
    if(getDvar("CUSTOM_MAP") == "7")
    {
        SetDvar("sv_maprotation","exec zm_classic_transit.cfg map zm_transit");
        setDvar( "CUSTOM_MAP", 1 );
    }
	return;
}

Also i recommend using the map folders so wrong files cannot be loaded in wrong maps.

Example: transit maps goes into zm_transit folder etc.

@dontknowletsplay Monologue You can make custom configs in the gamesettings folder and in the sv_maprotation you would do

sv_maprotation "exec <config1name>.cfg map <mapname1> exec <config2name>.cfg map <mapname2>" etc up to 1024 characters

and in the config you would a make a copy and modify the base config the map uses such as zm_transit_classic.cfg and add the dvar CUSTOM_MAP with the desired value of it at the bottom of the config.

An example of this is this mod: https://github.com/JezuzLizard/T6-Plutonium-Grief-Promod/tree/main/configs/gamesettings .

on the custom maps. why cant i get more weapons.

like the custom map on the bridge, you cant get the death machine etc or are they just scripted to not get them?? fix this modder

hindercanrun

GODmodeON why do u want a gun that slows u down so much?

dontknowletspl

GODmodeON There is nothing to fix. Deathmachine is used in mob of the dead as powerup and when powerup end player would lose his gun. Check the original post comments which you can find in this post someone else asked this already.

hindercanrun

@dontknowletsplay you can get the death machine out of the box in motd, idk if he means that

dontknowletspl

hindercanrun Yea like i said player would lose his gun and because of this it is not in box.

@dontknowletsplay How do I remove the maps from my game? I enjoyed them, but every time I launch tranzit it gives me an error and Im permanently stuck on the bridge map when I launch motd solo

hindercanrun

DevilVOs remove the scripts from ur scripts folder

I can't get it to work, the only things i've done is install survivals then started without update but the option still isn't showing, i noticed the privategamelobby_project doesn't move by itself when i press install_survivals i have to do it automatically and it still doesn't show up

hindercanrun

Secorius did you put it in ur plutonium folder
