Can you make a script that, when you start a multiplayer map, you start in a vehicle, lets say a cryo tube? and if so, can you make it that every player starts in a different one? (if you make like 16 next to eachother?

Im a scripter. I don't think that would sync though. You can do that. The script is...

(script startup placement
(vehicle_load_magic (players))0-15))

Copy the vehicle load part 15 times, changing the vehicle name, seat name, and players accordingly.

Then add...

)



Hope I helped

This is the truth.

i think it would sync. Since bipeds sync, you could just have them attach to a vehicle whenever their health goes nil.

is it possible to make the spawn placements extroardinarily close to the "vehicles", and then script it so that on spawning, players start in the nearest "vehicle"?

If you only want it to happen on the first spawn, that is possbible i bet. But then the players might spawn on top of, or worse, halfway into vehicles. Physics glitches do happen.

And then, new joining players might not spawn like this. though you might want that.

Reminds me of that you could make things like boulder clusters and city garbage cans that perople could climb into as vehicles. then, they are concealed and protected. You could, or could not, make it so that they could pop out and fire. In a close quarters area, a shotgun in a garbage can could be great. Or a big firefight in a courtyard starts, and players clmb into the can for saftey. Or pre hidden players get an advantage. All kinds of possiblilities.

sorry foxtrot, can't make them spawn in the nearest vehicle. You can with a specific vehicle.

so, if i would use a cryotube, what would i have to fill in in your script? (names of the vehicles are cry 0-15 for example)
