This may be posted allready somewhere in here, but I was wondering, how would I fine out how much time is left for the map, using eventscripts?

[ajax]

this hasn't really been done with eventscripts (here) since the admin plugins feature it already. it is possible, but it is subject to breaking if the map is restarted or if the map is extended.

with all that in mind, do you still want this made for you using eventscripts? or do you just want an explanation of how it would be done?

Well.... How about I explain what I need it for? I found some sounds I want to have played at certain time remaining. I would think the code would be like:

if(sever_var(XXXXX) equalto 10) then nm_play #all location/to/sound/file.wav
if(sever_var(XXXXX) equalto 5) then nm_play #all location/to/sound/file.wav
if(sever_var(XXXXX) equalto 1) then nm_play #all location/to/sound/file.wav
// ...and on down to 15 seconds

What I need to do is find out what "XXXXX" is, and it doesn't exsist...

[ajax]

i see. i think that's already been covered in <this thread>

// in server.cfg
// FOR A 10 MINUTE WARNING 
es_setinfo TIMECHECK server_var(mp_timelimit) 
es_math TIMECHECK * 60 
es_math TIMECHECK - 600 
es_delayed server_var(TIMECHECK) ma_play <INSERT SOUND HERE>

this isn't entirely accurate if there is any time lapse between the map being loaded and the game starting (waiting for players). maybe i'll put together a script pack to include other time increments and to make it more accurate than this simple approach.

OK thanks alot for the help. For different times I would change the 60 and 600? I'm really bad at math :(

If your not busy, can you explain the numbers, or find them out for 3min, 2min, 1min, 45sec, 30sec, 15sec, and 10sec?
