[minimod] Demon CounterStrike v0.05d: What the heck

Projects that alter game functions but do not include new maps belong here.

The Projects forums are only for projects. If you are asking questions about a project, either find that project's thread, or start a thread in the General section instead.

Got a cool project idea but nothing else? Put it in the project ideas thread instead!

Spoiler: CVARINFO
Bored of being lost in a map without anything to shoot? Does that map not have enough monsters or items? Or perhaps you just want to BE FRIGGIN' SURROUNDED AND BEATEN UP?!
Demon CounterStrike is a mod that simply spawns monsters and items around any place you have visited over time. You can customize how often things spawn, or how many seconds after you enter a level they will start spawning. Works on Zandronum and GZDoom.

I know what you're going to ask. "Does it work with Brütal Doom"? Yes, it does. Most gameplay mods should work fine.
Oh, and if your mod edits the main menu, you can access this mod's settings by tying "openmenu dcsmenu" in the console.

Spoiler: Screenshots
Known Issues:
* Allies don't flash correctly in online Zandronum.
* Boss map detection is far from perfect. It might not work with some mapsets that edit MAPINFO as it detects level number and cluster to identify boss maps.
* In multiplayer, sometimes a player dying results in things stop spawning. Can't figure out why, yet.

Just so you know, the main menu is now technically protected, so you'll need to use "AddOptionMenu"

If ya wanna be lazy, I've already edited it, so you can just copy-paste this into MENUDEF

Code: Select all

AddOptionMenu "OptionsMenu"
{
	StaticText " "
	SubMenu "Demon CounterStrike Options",		"DCSMenu"
}

OptionMenu "DCSMenu"
{
	StaticText "tip: if this menu is not visible on the "

And your mod's menu will always appear no matter what mod is loaded.

Unfortunately, seems like Zandronum doesn't support AddOptionMenu.

Suggestions that may or may not break compatibility with Zandronum:
A master toggle to completely disable the mod. Currently, the most convenient way to load this before everything is to autoload it, so such a toggle would be appreciated.
Perhaps take the map's monster count into consideration for a percentage-based max monster limit. Say the slider is set to 50% adjustment; a map that has 50 monsters in-level would spawn 25 monsters from reinforcements.
An option to disable item spawns when the max monster limit has been reached would be a welcome addition, considering you can farm for full of everything on the first map of any wad without any ramifications.
A proximity and line-of-sight check for monster and item spawns would be beneficial for smaller maps, preventing stuff from spawning right next to you. This would further the idea that areas the player isn't currently interacting with are playing host to some new baddies.

I really like the idea of this mod. Like DarkDoomZ and Slomo Bullettime, it can be loaded with all sorts of other mods and offer a unique experience for each. Whether it's feature complete in your eyes or not, I hope to see some improvements of any kind in the future. Thank you.

Those are nice suggestions, and I don't think they'd break zandro compatibility.

I just tried this with Quake Champions Doom Edition in the hope that it would spawn monsters in the multiplayer arena maps (so that there would be monsters to fight with being as botmatches in GZDoom aren't yet possible) but it wouldn't spawn any at all. When playing single player maps with QCDE it spawned monsters and pickups just fine, but in multiplayer maps it did nothing.

This is wonderful! I typically don't try to go for par times on maps (still don't), since I usually take my time no matter what gameplay mod I'm using, but this forces you to keep going fast. I love it! Really makes it feel like a demonic conflict, too. I shudder to imagine what would happen if you used this on a slaughtermap, though.

This is sort of a random compatibility thing, so no problem if it's not a priority, but I noticed when playing with a mod that uses nashgore the game won't launch. I'm running the OSCJ mod and the error code I'm getting seems to be focused on the nashgore part of it, though it may be another part of the mod as well since it's in a few parts:
Spoiler:
This mod is a great idea, so the more compatible with stuff it can be, the better!

Amazing job! Though, may I give you a suggestion? If it's possible, try and make the monsters hunt the player down through ThingHate.

When playing single player maps with QCDE it spawned monsters and pickups just fine, but in multiplayer maps it did nothing.
Seems like this mod breaks sometimes when maps use scripts. I have no idea why. getCVAR returns wrong values. I think I'll need help here.

I typically don't try to go for par times on maps (still don't), since I usually take my time no matter what gameplay mod I'm using, but this forces you to keep going fast. I love it! Really makes it feel like a demonic conflict, too. I shudder to imagine what would happen if you used this on a slaughtermap, though.
Well, you can set a limit on how many monsters exist at a time so you'd still have some control here, heheh.

I'm running the OSCJ mod and the error code I'm getting seems to be focused on the nashgore part of it, though it may be another part of the mod as well since it's in a few parts:

This mod is a great idea, so the more compatible with stuff it can be, the better!
Well that's weird. Not sure what to do about that.

That seems doable.



So, uh, yeah, I need to find out why getCVAR returns wrong values sometimes.

WELP.
Turns out I forgot to add #library in the acs source file. I'm dumb as a rock.

Thanks phantombeta for pointing that out. I'm going to fix that and add a few requested features then post an update.

Didn't have time to add much. Oh well, maybe next week unless there's another critical bug that needs to be fixed.

It now works with the QCDE multiplayer arena maps.

I wanted to add an option to make monsters automatically hate players by using Thing_Hate(tid, 0, 4) but it didn't work. Oh well...
