How to deduct bleed tickets using BIS_fnc_bleedTickets

[BEAKSBY 11]

HI All,

Not sure if anyone has played with BIS_fnc_bleedTickets, but I want to deduct an certain number of bleed tickets from a player everytime they respawn.

I'm still playing around with it but wondering if anyone has tried this yet?

BIS_fnc_bleedTickets

/*
BIS_fnc_bleedTickets
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BIS_fnc_bleedTickets

Author: Karel Moricky

Description:
Initialize ticket bleeding. Works with sector modules.
When a side holds majority of sectors, other non-friendly sides will start losing respawn tickets (set by BIS_fnc_respawnTickets)

"dominantSideChanged" scripted event handler (see BIS_fnc_addScriptedEventHandler) is called every time the dominant side changes.

Parameter(s):
	0 (Optional): ARRAY of SIDEs - involved sides. Setting empty array will terminate ticket bleeding (default: all sides)
	1 (Optional): NUMBER - dominance ratio in range 0-1, i.e., how large portion of sectors must a side hold for others to start bleeding (default: 0.5)
	2 (Optional): NUMBER - how many tickets will be bled every step during full dominance (default: 3)
	3 (Optional): NUMBER - delay in seconds between every bleeding step (default: 5)

Returns:
BOOL

Use BIS_fnc_respawnTickets

Example, where 10 tickets are deducted form player's side:

[side player,-10] call BIS_fnc_respawnTickets;

THanks Moricky,

When I use

[side player,-10] call BIS_fnc_respawnTickets;

(or any negative value) the bleed tickets are immediately reduced from 500 (my default setting) to 0, and the game is forced to end.

When I use

[side player,-1, TRUE] call BIS_fnc_respawnTickets;

the bleed tickets are reduced from 500 to 499, then 498, 497...etc.

BIS_fnc_respawnTickets

	Description:
Adjust number of respawn tickets. When player dies, the number is automatically decreased by 1;
When number of tickets reaches 0, player's respawn is disabled.

Parameter(s):
	0:
		NAMESPACE, SIDE, GROUP or OBJECT - tickets space (e.g., it's possible to define two different ticket numbers for each side)
		BOOL - true to return number of tickets in all spaces (used for returning value only, won't set anything)
		ARRAY - return losing space from the passed list (elements can be of type NAMESPACE, SIDE, GROUP or OBJECT)
	1: NUMBER - by how much will the ticket count be adjusted
	2 (Optional): BOOL - true to autodetect tickets space. First param have to be an object. Used for modifying player's current tickets.

Returns:
	NUMBER - remaining tickets after adjustment (-1 when no tickets were defined yet)
	ARRAY - when array was used as an argument, returned value is [<losingSpace>,<tickets>]

Hi guys I am having a bit of trouble with tickets as well. I set up a Sector Control map and am using the spawn AI module to send AI to attack each sector. My trouble is when I (being on west side) kill a AI (being on east side) it doesn't take away a ticket. I used an eventhandler but I don't think they get included because they are spawned with the Spawn AI module. Basically is there a way for me to apply this logic to AI when they are killed or spawned with the module?

[dr death jm 117]

id like to see this work per kill, instead of once bleed tickets is activated it just continues negitive scoring till mission ends,

ie: 100 kills ends the game . instead of it being a timer.. (would be awesome on DM)
