[LU] Basemode (1.0 Final)

[Stoku]

Me presents...
The official AAD (Attack and defence) gamemode for Liberty Unleashed! It was previously dedicated for public release to play clanwars by Liberty City Killers [LCK] clan and to let other clans/players play it on their own servers too. I've started development of this gamemode at around 2010 when I was a beta tester of LU and current version is from 2018. This AAD was inspired by Basemode from MTA:SA by [ANO]Rhbk.

Gameplay (by Kunio):
Watch now!

The gamemode contains:

- complete AAD logic (timeout, killed all players, picked up the base, draws),
- 20 unique bases,
- 1 spawn for attackers,
- 1 closed lobby,
- well balanced weapons system to make every weapons useful, to avoid shotgun only fights or M16. Every weapon is powerful here and has it pros and cons,
- only attackers can enter vehicles and this is a basic the idea of AAD,
- admin commands: /bmlogin <pass> (login as administrator), /base <id>, /end, /switch, /add <player id>, /help, /t1/2name <team name>, /resetscore, /del <player id>, /add <player id>, /resetscore
- player commands: /help, /info, /votebase <id>, /fix or /fix2 to show/hide mouse cursor and toggle camera movement (it was messy sometimes, probably LU bug), /eject, /kill, /t - teamchat,
- a teamchat on "Y" key,

Installation:

1. Move all the scripts into Scripts/basemode/*files* directory
2. Replace content.xml in LU/ directory.
3. Replace server.conf file in the root server dir.
4. Round time, attackers spawnpoint and misc base related stuff is stored in every base xml. Please don't change current bases, thay ere tested very well and most of them are made with "camping unfriendly" way.

Known issues for 1.0-RC5 release (17.01.2019):

Mouse won't move on weapons selection screen.
Fix: delete SilentPatch.asi from GTA3 directory.

The unzipped script won't load. It's caused by wrong folder structure on my GitHub.
Fix: read the installation instructions in first post.

Team balancer doesn't work as it should
Fix: disable it in config.nut, it'll be fixed in upcoming version.

"Mission passed" song doesn't work.
Fix: there's no fix released, but it's fixed in upcoming version.

The RC5 version on the server is stable and at this moment it's pretty bugsfree, but the sources aren't up to date. They're contain some bugs.

Check my github for most recent version by clicking here.

Creating bases and spawns using built in commands (<RC4):

1. Launch the server.
2. Recommended spawn as attacker team to use vehicles (or /bmlogin pass then /switch).
3. Launch any base with /base ID command and now you can find some spots.
4. Use command /player or /marker to print comeplete XML line in console (so you can copy and paste in your base file - Scripts/basemode/maps/bases/).
5. To create attackers spawnpoint, you can also use /player command to print player spawning line and /vehicle ID (incar) to print vehicle XML line. Attackers spawns are located at Scripts/basemode/maps/spawns, to use your new spawn, you have to set it's ID (eg. 1.xml is ID 1) in your base file (<Spawn>ID</Spawn>).
6. You can also use the /cv ID - create vehicle command. Available only after logging in and please don't use it when playing - it may break the script.
7. If you're using the auoplay feature you have to edit NUMBER_OF_BASES in server.nut.
8. Feel free to post your bases/spawns here or with PM, so I can check them and add

So:
/player - prints players spawn line in console
/marker - prints marker line
/vehicle id - prints vehicle spawn line
/cv id - create vehicle (NOT FOR USE ON PUBLIC SERVERS).
