Damn had to retype.

For respawn put these lines in your description.ext:</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">respawn = 3;

respawndelay=7;<span id='postcolor'>

Then on your map create 2 markers and call them Respawn_West and Respawn_East.

That's where they'll respawn.

It's not so easy to tell who you killed, but maybe the rating functionality can be used to see if you smoked a unit, thus giving you money. I see you want to get a Counterstrike thing going.

Oh you are doing all the right things except; respawning only works in MP.

I have played around with respawning in SP, but I have not created a "usable" version of it.

Notepad is good. Ultra Edit is a nicer tool, just my preference.

I'm fairly certain that respawn does not work in single player at all.

And try respawn_civ as your marker. (if the players are civilians)

As for the money, you'd have to probably watch player scores using the score command.

as in, have a script on the server only (gamelogic time, babay! that loops with a small delay and watch for changes in the score of players. score goes up = more money.

I've never done this, and I'm talking out of my ass. So be forewarned. Bn880 is the man.

[D.murphy man 0]

b880 will u give us the secret to making money(And dont say get a job )

Edit.

if i but respawn_civ thatll mean that all the A.I iv killed will respawn too what about if a name one player man1 and the other man2(its a 2 player map)and put respawn_man1..ect,ect wil that work?

Work for Microsoft?

Well, the AI that would normally be playable will respawn, but not just regular AI.

No i don't think OFP engine has support for Respawn_xxxx markers, let me see:

respawn_east

respawn_west

respawn_guerrila

respawn_civilian

respawn_

Hmm, do not know what respawn_ does, maybe there is some additional support but I don't know.

Hey, by changing the number in respawn= 3 you can make the players respawn in their old positions

only problem is if they die in water, they respawn in water.

I'm being especially generous today, probably because I'm bored way out of my mind.  So here's a script that is completely untested that you can try.

don't forget to make a game logic called "server" and name both players player1 and player2

; dismas, oh yeah!

; Assuming that the score command increments:

; 1 for ai kill

; 2 for soft vehicle kill

; 3 for hard/armoured vehicle kill

; 5 for airplane kill

; and assuming that there are only 2 players.  PERIOD.

? !(local server) : exit

; amount of money per point

_moneyModifier = 100

player1money = 0

player2money = 0

player1score = 0

player2score = 0

_diff = 0

_ns = 0

#loop1

_ns = score player1

? (player1score == _ns) : goto "next1"

_diff = player1score - (_ns)

? _diff > 0 : player1money = player1money + (_moneyModifier * _diff)

player1score = _ns

publicVariable "player1money"

#next1

_ns = score player2

? (player2score == _ns) : goto "next2"

_diff = player2score - (_ns)

? _diff > 0 : player2money = player2money + (_moneyModifier * _diff)

player2score = _ns

publicVariable "player2money"

#next2

~1

goto "loop1"

exit

edit:

as usual, I made a small mistake (which was somewhat critical).  script should work fairly nicely now.

edit #2:

I hate me for this.  Small change to make it more reliable in MP.

edit #3:

and another critical mistake fixed.

I'm on fire today.
