CTF instant chat commands

Posts : 4 Join date : 2011-05-14

hey guys!
i thought about it for a really really long time and i decided that someone from |DpG| has to start acting strategic in CTF because it's impossible to beat you guys.
And the only way to do that is learn from the very best and in my eyes you guys are the very best.

So now that i buttered you all up with compliments nad whatnot... tell me the secret to your guys' doom?

lol jk. Actually can someone please give me CTF commands. Like the /team ones that tell your teammates to base camp or hole or get the hell outta my defense, etc. DpG is starting to grow and the biggest way i could save ourselves from meeting the plight of LoT and 0101 clan is by actually winning some matches in tourneys :P

so if someone could provide me with those lovely /team chat thingamabobs, I would really appreciate it :)

P.S. Oh tru, btw flea told me that he is going to start redesigning the site so it's more intuitive and much easier on the eyes, etc. I remember you were complaining about that. hahahah

u poor lost child

firstly /team lets you communicate with anyone on your team at the given time. Only your team can see what your typing when you type using /team the opposing team cannot.
secondly wtf are these cmds u speak of? to tell your team to basecamp just type /team basecamp ? You can set /team as in instant chat so all you have to do is press a key and /team is already there so that saves you the time of typing /team, to do so just have an instant chat with /team \ ready and set so you could access it it the touch of a button or if you would like to be more efficient you can have them pre set like /team basecamp, /team res, /team def down, etc etc etc already pre-prepared in instant chats so that saves you the time of typing them or if your in a tight position/situation you wont need to type and get chatkilled, you can also add colors to your instant to outline how important is etctec

Don't ask, dpg should develop it on it's own

tru, he was kidding about that, he just wants to know what instas we use

prema, for all the basic /team commands, there are:
basecamp/res
specifics on attking/holing
defense statuses like "def ok" or "def needs help" etc.

as for color, you need to use the 0x command
0x000000 = white
depending on the code you put in, the text will change colors
0xff0000 = red
0x00ff00 = green
0x0000ff = blue
the scale (from lowest to highest) is [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f]
this is because the colors on tron (like when you change the color of your name/cycle) go from 0-15
so when you enter different combinations, you get different colors/shades
0xff00ff = purple
and so on. you can experiment with all the shades/colors
I only used "ff" cause it's just the easiest to use

Now, what you want to do is combine these two things into one command
Examples:
/team 0xff0000 DEF DOWN! RES!
/team 0xff0000 ATTACK DOWN! RES!
/team 0x0000ff SANDWHICH ATTKR!
/team 0x0000ff FIGHT OFF ATTKR!
/team 0x00ff00 HOLE NOW!
/team 0x00ff00 FAKE HOLE!
Notice how the first two were both in red text. This is because they were both "res" commands
When you use them enough, you wont even need to really read the commands, you should know by the color
Same goes for the blue text that are "def" designated and green text that are "off" designated.
It also helps because the defense doesn't have to worry about /team commands said in green and vice versa with attk and blue text

Subject: Re: CTF instant chat commands Sat May 28, 2011 11:15 am

Yes, as try said stop it.

As far as i can see, this started as a joke, but now that it has excessed both of you are too proud to give in.
So can we finish it at that and have no more of it? It was fine as a joke (atleast i hope that that is how it started)
but it realy has gone to far.
