Triggerable Playerstarts in Bunnytrack Maps?
In Monster Hunt maps people can make it so that when you have completed a certain objective you can spawn from a different place. Is it possible to make that in a BT map?

Re: Triggerable Playerstarts in Bunnytrack Maps?
Why it shouldnt be possible? But its really nonsense. Noobs will wait for the better players to get a new respawn point. In situation like this, noobs will never learn how to play Bunnytrack.

No I mean only you can spawn from there. Once you have capped you have to start from the first spawn point again.

Re: Triggerable Playerstarts in Bunnytrack Maps?
maybe you can do something like that with teleports, when you fall off, you go to start of that part of track
like a small training BT for newbies

Theres already that in the I4Games server and some random maps where the mapper has editted them for it. But thats completely different.

Re: Triggerable Playerstarts in Bunnytrack Maps?
would conflict badly with BT mods, especially the Records. Not any good for BT, even though BT can be frustrating and you wish it would boost you to where you died....not a good idea in the long run..

Not to where you died...
What I mean is would it be possible for someone to make a map where there are checkpoints where when you die you go to your last checkpoint. Then when you have captured all your checkpoints are reset and you start from the begining.

I cannot remember what it is called or where to find it though. Sorry.![]()
It utilises PLAYER positioned Teleporters. When you spawn you can place a teleporter, then if you reach a point where you think you will die you can set another teleporter to return you to that point.
Now before you worry about timecheating - The teleporters also take note of how long it took you to get to where you died. Meaning that if you placed the exit point at 2minutes 4 seconds, IF you enter the Entrance teleporter you automatically have a time of 2m4s.

Asfar as I know this mod is the only way to establish "checkpoints" without people abusing it (time jumping).
If you wanted it in a map it would be simple just to set up a locked cage with a teleporter in it, but as stated earlier. The lesser players would just wait for the better players to unlock them + you would end up with caps of 10 seconds or so on large maps.
