Hi,

It's the maximum number of times a player can spawn within a round (spawnkill excluded)
for ffa, it's particular as there is no round notion, xp_playerLifes is then the max number of time to spawn within a game

xp_playerLifes 0 illimited spawns (default value) = current system
xp_playerLifes 5 players can spawn 5 times within game/a round

Special notes :

  • if xp_playerLifes is positive, then the game ends for ffa when only one player has remaining lifes = last man standing.
  • if xp_playerLifes is positive, then the round ends for team based when only one team has remaining lifes = CA+.

  • if a player joins on ffa, he shouldn't get xp_playerLifes lifes but the same amount of lifes remaining for the player on the bottom of the list (if he has 1 remaining then player joining has 1 life too, if he is totally dead (0 lifes), it means he can't spawn till next map)
  • if a player joins on a team, he shouldn't get xp_playerLifes lifes but the same amount of lifes remaining for the player on the bottom of the team's list (if he has 1 remaining then player joining has 1 life too, if he is totally dead (0 lifes), it means he can't spawn till next round)

This feature really has many applications :

  • Push The enemy
  • Last man standing
  • CA+
  • Suvival
P.S: somehow CA gametype has already something like xp_playerLifes 1

Wanna avoid seeying mow, skull & co Surprise

Check this peacefull place

Re: [Suggestion] xp_playerLifes

ok, I actually have to admit this suggestion really is great and definitely has great potential, not because its something new, rather because it allows you to create a whole new kind of gametype because it closes the gap between clanarena (1 life) and tdm (infinitive live). It creates a whole new target for these gametypes, also it reduces the bad luck people might have in clanarena (getting ganged by more then 1 player at a time - and after being dead you simply respawn. For example, in normal clanarena people have 100-150, you could split it to 50-75 and 2 lifes per person a round for example).

Imo this would be a great addition to gameplay and team work, especially weak links within a team wouldn't ruin whole teamplay in tdm for example, if every player in tdm has lets say, 50 lives.

ps: should be adjustable for map

edit: tbh, it could be used for a modified protect the leader, for example, the leader of a team has only 1 life (he is a kind of mobile flag) and the enemys have to kill this guy to score. This function really has a lot of possibilities.

this would also give the opportunity to effectively use specific team based settings, something that i think is practicly unused at the moment.
