How hard do you modders think it would be to effect an Extreme Granger Games mod?

http://tremulous.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2829 for referance.
You'd have to make both teams as differantly colored grangers, restrict some classes... maybe more. Anyone up for it?

Benmachine and Floodbud have made mods that alter the colors of classes/items. If they wanted, they could probably help.

Risujin is most likely knowledgeable about restricting certain classes.

Thats a good idea, does COM (now BoT) still run EGGs? Oh and are there still any benmachine mod servers running?

Hi. I could probably make a start on this as a clientside mod. How does restricting the alien team to four colours of grangers sound? Making both teams alien is harder but not impossible. The main issue is, in order to distinguish the buildables you'd have to reskin half of them - not hard in itself, but the clientside download will be ouch.

There's always (nearly always) [Derelict]benmachine's mod, hosted by DarkDodo, but I've seen one or two others from time to time.

actually they just need to use your mod, restrict other classes, balance sides
(add regen to humans or remove from aliens etc...)

but in my mod if humans build an egg only aliens can spawn from it... that doesn't sound hard to work around, but then you've got two different types of egg and it's pretty hard to tell which is which.

Hi all, Daenyth, I thank you for bringing this up again. :)

No, the Granger Games are not dead :D We have just had trouble organizing them due to the merge.

We were looking for a server-side mod, or a mod builtin to a map. Hopefully, that would generate anywhere between 2-4 teams of players, all different colors, most likely green, red, blue and yellow.

raWr - that was the coolest server, with HighRise18 (goon pwnage of n00b hummies), granger games, both bases on ATCS in the middle of the arena, one-room maps with dretches & grangers vs. stage 1 humans, etc. & c.

I host the server and once you get the mod posted I'll grab it. Can you make it easy to host? Like just put it in a folder and put +set fs_game EGG or something in the command line.

Color changes will require a client download... and a download host... might as well make it a mod that allows A vs A and H vs H as well.

If someone does the coloring, I could probably do the coding.

BTW, there is a two room map called foto, pk3 is foto_ita, might be useful for some number of the games--it is a very small download, but appears to have a missing texture.

I think some things require humans, so you couldnt just replace them... Hmm. It would be wierd. Not sure how you'd get around 1 team of humans + multiple teams of aliens. Or just 3+ teams to begin with.

We should start by quantifying all changes that need to be made to the system, in order to accomidate as many game types as possible. Let's go through each game type and see what mods we'd have to add to make that game type work.

Then once we have that plan in place, we can find coders willing to do it.

Need nearly fully working humans and aliens, plus atleast two teams of grangers, one with atleast the reac as a default buildable, maybe some other things as well.  Risujin's layout system could also be helpful.

This is based on the list of possible events from the clan forum.

I am willing to do coding!!! :D  :D  :D

Rotate it so that the gn is upside down, so then you dont see the handle there... unless its supposed to actually be a chain instead of a granger
