Team scripting issues

[Hutchpe]

I am in the process of creating scripts for my server. The aim is to have two teams and when a player joins a team they are teleported to a set of co-ordinates. I currently have the script to create the teams on start-up and to let people join the teams.

function createTeamsOnStart () 
    teamBorderControl = createTeam ( "Border Control", 0, 255, 0 ) 
    teamMexicans = createTeam ( "Mexicans", 200, 0, 100 ) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, createTeamsOnStart) 

and

addCommandHandler("joinmexicans", 
function(thePlayer, commandName) 
    setPlayerTeam(thePlayer, teamMexicans) 
    outputChatBox("You are a Mexican.",thePlayer) 
    end 
) 

addCommandHandler("joinbordercontrol", 
function(thePlayer, commandName) 
    setPlayerTeam(thePlayer, teamBorderControl) 
    outputChatBox("You are the Border Control.",thePlayer) 
    end 
) 

Can anyone point me in the right direction to modify this so that when a player joins a team they are teleported to specific co-ordinates?

I am also wanting to know how to apply attributes in the MAP file to each of the teams. This is what I have in the map file currently.

"Mexihunt" version="1.0"> 
  
   "5000" maxkills="60" ff="off"/> 
    
   "00" h="10" locked="false" /> 
  
   team="Border Control" red="255" green="0" blue="0"> 
      "9" ammo="1"/> 
      "23" ammo="100"/> 
      "25" ammo="200"/> 
      "32" ammo="500"/> 
      "31" ammo="200"/> 
      "33" ammo="50"/> 
      "33"/> 
      "5438.780762" posY="-1917.095703" posZ="1.538315" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5429" posY="-1831" posZ="3.22" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5253" posY="-2075" posZ="5.24" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5424" posY="-2060" posZ="9.09" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
    
  
   team="Mexicans" red="255" green="255" blue="255"> 
      "3" ammo="1"/> 
      "24" ammo="100"/> 
      "27" ammo="200"/> 
      "29" ammo="500"/> 
      "30" ammo="200"/> 
      "34" ammo="50"/> 
      "70"/> 
      "5068.007813" posY="-2083.547119" posZ="7.487796" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5141" posY="-1873" posZ="6.66" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5095" posY="-1938" posZ="16.87" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5067" posY="-2068" posZ="14.8" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
      "5099" posY="-2084" posZ="15.53" rot="0" randx="0" randy="0" randz="0"/> 
    
  

Any help is very much appreciated.

spawnPlayer 

You don't need setPlayerTeam when you have spawnPlayer by the way. Check the arguments from Wiki.

Use XML functions when you want to connect map/xml with a script.

Thanks for the reply. I replaced setPlayerTeam with spawnPlayer and it works beautifully! I've decided to scrap the .MAP config and implement weapons through the script. Can anyone give some advice on how to use the giveWeapon argument only when a player joins a specific team?

[myonlake]

I don't think there are team events, so you're gonna have to put the code after the spawnPlayer function.

Sorry for being a bit of a noob but could you show me what they would look like put together?

So far I have the script to join a team

addCommandHandler("joinbordercontrol", 
function(thePlayer, commandName) 
    spawnPlayer(thePlayer, 2495.3654785156,-1687.6867675781,13.517179548035, 0,0,0,0,teamBorderControl) 
    fadeCamera (source, true) 
    setCameraTarget (source, source) 
    outputChatBox("You are the Border Control.",thePlayer) 
    end 
) 

and the giveWeapons script

function giveWeaponsOnSpawn ( theSpawnpont, theTeam ) 
    giveWeapon ( source, 31, 200 ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerSpawn", getRootElement(), giveWeaponsOnSpawn )

You can get the team

function teamSpawnWep ()  
local team = getPlayerTeam (source)  
if (team == teamBorderControl) then 
giveWeapon (source, id) 
if (team == teamMexicans) then 
giveWeapon (source, id) 
end 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerSpawn", root, teamSpawnWep)  

Untested but maybe should be doing the job

EDIT: This is to give weps

[Hutchpe]

It works great! Thanks so much
