RealmWars map clycling

#1 ok heres a better explaination of what i need to do,,,,

this is in my game.cs:

// Game duration in secs, no limit if the duration is set to 0
$Game::Duration = 20 * 60
:::

i need something like this:
// Game duration in secs, no limit if the duration is set to 0
if (ML_multiplayer){
$Game::Duration = 20 * 60
}else{
$Game::Duration = 00 * 00
}

but im not sure if ML_multiplayer is the correct call to use ,and im not sure how to right it in script.

thanks.

[edit]hmmm this may have something to do with it:
// Start the game timer
if ($Game::Duration)
$Game::Schedule = schedule($Game::Duration * 1000, 0, "onGameDurationEnd" );
$Game::Running = true;
}

ill play with it [/edit]

#2 If you look into startMissionGui, you see how the single-/multiplayer stuff is initialized:

if ($pref::HostMultiPlayer)
      %serverType = "MultiPlayer";
   else
      %serverType = "SinglePlayer";

   createServer(%serverType, %mission);
   localConnect($pref::Player::Name);

which means if the user selects the multiplayer checkbox, %serverType is set to "MultiPlayer"...
You could set your game duration here or just make the %serverType variable global ($serverType) and access it from your game.cs...
Does that help?

#3 heh, ya , i noticed that and am still messing with it i tried (in game cs)

if ($pref::HostMultiPlayer) {
$Game::Duration = 05 * 05;
}else{
$Game::Duration = 00 * 00;
}

and it does do the
$Game::Duration = 05 * 05;

but has no effect on single player,,,im going to try

if ($pref::HostMultiPlayer)
%serverType = "MultiPlayer";
$Game::Duration = 05 * 05; //this is for devtesting
else
%serverType = "SinglePlayer";
$Game::Duration = 00 * 00;


in the startmission gui and see what happens

thanks

#4 heh i just dont get it....but am still tring

#5 Wouldnt a game cycle normally in multiplayer?
cycleGame();

#6 Old thread, dude. :)

#7 Oh lol

#8 I have mine set up, so when a certain gametype is read from the mission file, it loads the corinspoding game play type, i ripped it out of realmwars, so it should work.
