1 Crossfire maps /test/anthony
2
3 These maps were created for the purposes of studys into controlling various
4 timed events and actions in crossfire. The specific goal in this case was a
5 sort of conveyor belt to deliver a sequence of items in order, one item at a
6 time. The items could be anything from apartment room keys, passports, scrolls
7 of remove curse, or an increasing bonus of special items for completing a set
8 of quests in any order they like (assuming the map does not reset :-)
9
10 The resulting conveyor belt could also be used to create a ``select a prize''
11 device, Eg: turn handle untill prize wanted is visible, then make
12 the `once only' selection of that prize to eject it from the conveyor.
13
14 It could also be used to create a rotating display of items this quest
15 will also you to find. :-)
16
17 The maps were created in the following order.
18 raffles_cascade A study version of the raffles prize selector.
19 connected_objects Study of gates/buttons/handles/triggers/altars/etc..
20 special_objects More complex study of special devices.
21 roller_cades Studies into very tight loops for rolling boulders around.
22 cascades A look (and timing) for different types of cascades
23 conveyor Using a straight forward cascade to create an
24 conveyor belt of items.
25
26 The result of all these can be seen in the ``Office of Passes'' in Scorn
27 which unfortunatally requires a fix to get ``gold floors'' to work again.
28
29 A Cascade can also be used for other traps! Like a squeezing wall trap :-)
30 or timed events, EG: open this, teleport item, create fog, close that.
31
32 I have provided these maps as examples and `help' for other people wanting
33 to create special maps and tricks for their adventure.
