Crossfire maps /test/anthony |
| 2 |
|
|
|

|
|
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. |
