I would like to have a points system, like the one in portent, but I have no clue how to achieve that. If no one else does I would then try to make a regular firefight, like mudslide-skirmish. Any help or suggestions are appreciated, thanks!

It's how you wish to implement this that matters.

It's how you wish to implement this that matters. I have no knowledge of variables whatsoever. I kinda get what your saying, but it still looks like a foreign language to me. Could you be more specific on how I go around on setting one up please?

This is meant to be single player. I still wish I knew how to add in a points system though. I looked through the scripting bible and I didn't really find anything. Anyone know how to add in a points system?

Anyone know how to add in a points system? A points system uses a variable that tracks your points, and the d40 countdown timer or HUD messages to display it. The timer and variables are explained in the bible. If you have script questions you can xfire me at slappythepirate, or even better drop a PM. Make sure I know it's you.
