misc_shield_floor_unit working in ffa?

[lil_binger]

I was wanting to add some misc_shield_floor units in a map I am working on.  They will show up if I change the gametype to ctf but will not spawn in free for all.  I have used 2 search engines to try to track down a solution.

 

I found someone saying to add a key and value but doesn't seem to work:

 

notfree 0   //  Meaning disables or enables the floor unit in free for all.

 

Also I have tried using seta command for:

 

seta disable_item_ misc_shield_floor_unit 0

 

Neither seem to work.

 

Anyone know a way to have them work in ffa?

Can't remember properly but I believe scripting is needed, else even if you get them to show up anyone who uses it will crash out.

You'll need to script it.

I'll look into it guys.  JK2 mp doesn't like scripts however but it's worth a try.  If a script doesn't work for ffa, at least they will work for ctf which I plan to make a ctf version of the map with a few area restrictions. 

 

I will update this thread once I find out if it works or not.

 

Thanks
