Custom CTF ruleset...

[TommyCD1]

I've started working on a custom ruleset based on Capture the Flag. I've wrote a working script into it already that recruits a unit within a region and then assigns a tag to it. I can use this to tag the unit who has picked up the flag, allowing me to track said unit. This should allow me to

• Respawn dropped flag at unit's corpse
• Trigger an effect on the unit that will render a giant flag on it seen by all.
• Detect when this unit has returned home to capture the flag.

But the thing I was having trouble with was deciding exactly how to make a capture the flag scenario in an RTS game. I had a few ideas, including:

• Bring home enemy flags to score. Bringing home five flags will win.
• Hold the single neutral flag for 5 minutes to win.
• Bringing home all flags of an enemy team will cause that team to self destruct.

I wanted to know if anyone had any ideas? I could use them.

Oh, also I should add that I was thinking I can make it so that only infantry units can pick up flags, and also you would be able to pick up and carry your own or allies' flags, so that your not forced to stay home, however if a flag is dropped and not picked up for 2 minutes it would need to already respawn at home in the same spot.

Interesting idea. How I could forget about this?

I think there should be also custom AI included, but it would be a difficult task to force it on capturing the flag.

I think the best CTF ruleset are
Just like CALL OF DUTY CTF
Bring enemy flag and drop it on home base
And you got score.
first team get ..... flags win.

THAT MY OPINION.
