Hey, I've gone through the trouble of learning some gsc. It's fun to see when things are working ingame, but it's tedious to figure out what functions exist and how they are used. So I'm going to release this mod to the public so the next person after me has more simple examples to lead them. I think my code is helpful for someone who already understands gsc keywords and basic programming and is now searching for simple code examples.
The mod was used on Aspire ffa sniping server. You can take whatever parts you find useful and put it in your mod.
The mod contains code that:
- Puts a simple text on the screen which is useful for showing a discord link.
- Displays the players' current killstreak at the bottom.
- Calculates the time and accuracy of the FFA winner, then displays this at the end of the game. Was used for keeping track of the fastest FFA wins.
/*
* Author: ColouRz
* Version: 1.2
* Last updated: 6 October 2021
* Game: Modern Warfare 3
*
* Displays the playtime and accuracy of the winner. Made for FFA.
* Displays currently best time.
* Displays website and discord links.
* Displays current killstreak as a text in the bottom of each player's screen.
*
* Changelog:
*
* 1.2: Added killstreak text at bottom of screen.
*
* 1.1: Added accuracy of winner at end of game.
* Fixed bug of playtimer not starting if player connected after game started.
* Notes: Currently hardcoded for a kill limit of 100.
* Known bugs: Hitmarkers counts as misses. If the player connected after the game started, but no one has made a kill yet, the playtimer does not start.
