#How would I go about making a 2 way capture the flag system.

Basically the flag would already be owned by one team but when it gets captured by the enemy team ownership changes and so do their spawn points. For example, if the flag was in a fort and a raider got in and captured the flag they and their whole team would spawn in that fort if they respawned while the other team would spawn elsewhere and have to recapture it to spawn back.

#

I've got a whole script of what I've tried to do but it involves the flag raising/lowering and it didn't work so I don't know.

when i did this for my game it involved using a lot of systems i had already set up, so my method needed a lot of groundwork but turned out easy once that was all laid out

#

since you're only doing 2 teams it's a lot simpler

#

but you could track captureprogress and teamowned as variables to determine who owns the flag and how captured it is

#

then i would just set the spawn points to the team that owns the flag when ownedby changes

yeah in that case it could be harder, depends if it's ffa

#

but its like a civ team so i dont want it to be able to cap

#

ok yeah so just don't allow them

#

like in the code where it starts to capture just guard clause it by checking if their team is civilian

#

there are a couple different ways

#

i used numbervalues just cuz i like the physical aspect to them but you could track it in a script too

#

so if you had a model named capturepoint or whatever

#

then had a folder named values in it that contained the values you need to track

#

or you could just use attributes it's really up to you

and use getpropertychangedsignal on the teamowned variable to change spawns
