Respawn protection

[StealthAssassin]

It's me again ;D

My map is almost complete, now all I need to some kind of script or trigger that protects each teams respawn. e.g I dont want west forces running into the east respawn and camping it...

So is there any way that if a player attempts to enter an enemy respawn, he will die?

Cheers,

Respawn Protection
To create a good respawn protection zone, you need 3 things

1) A marked area on the map to show where it is
2) An outer warning zone
3) The actual kill zone itself
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Marked Map Area
This is done by using the "Markers" (F6) in the map editor
Name Lets call it "W_Kill_marker"
ICON: RECTANGLE: ELLIPSE: Use "ellipse"
Color Red for killing West, Blue for killing East
Fill "Solid"
Axis A Dimensions (Exactly same size as the "Warning Zone")
Axis B Dimensions (Exactly same size as the "Warning Zone")
Axis A and Axis B are normally the same size and create a circle
Angle Leave as "0" if a circle
Text "W Kill marker" (Used only to describe what it is)


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Outer warning Zone

This is done by creating a "Trigger" in the editor with the following settings

Axis A Same as Marker
Axis B Same as Marker
Angle Same as Marker
Ellipse: Rectangle Always Ellipse, Never use Rectangle
Activation West (If warning West Players) East (If warning East players
Once: Repeatedly: Repeatedly
Present: Not Present Present
Type None
Text W_Warning
Name W_Warning
Condition this
On Activation Titletext [format["%1
You are entering an EAST Safezone
Turn around or die!",name(thisList select 0)],"Plain down"]
On DeActivation leave blank

Then click the "Effects" Tab
In the "Sounds" section, select "Play Alarm" in the "Anonymous" menu

Anything that has not been mentioned leave in their default setting
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Killzone

This is done by creating a "Trigger" in the editor with the following settings

Axis A less than "Marker" and "Warning Zone"
Axis B less than "Marker" and "Warning Zone"
Angle less than "Marker" and "Warning Zone"
Ellipse: Rectangle Always Ellipse, Never use Rectangle
Activation West (If killing West Players) East (If killing East players
Once: Repeatedly: Repeatedly
Present: Not Present Present
Type None
Text W_Killzone
Name W_Killzone
Condition this
On Activation "_x setdammage 1" forEach thislist; titleText[format["%1
You didn't heed the warnings",name (thisList select 0)],"Plain down"]
On DeActivation leave blank


Anything that has not been mentioned leave in their default setting

Both the triggers and the marker then needs to have its epicentre in the middle of the "Respawn_West" or "Respawn_East" marker

Why not try this for the warning trigger:

Condition Field: Player in thislist

Then it will only activate on the player who entered the trigger's computer, rather that every client in the game
