In Response To: Re: Eternally Bored - and bugged (goran)

No, thats not how it works, but thats a really awesome idea. I wasn't under the impression that Rescue worked in Infinity, though. Maybe it works in AO. The way it works is that once the time limit is up, one terminal that was lit becomes dark and another brightens up. The first terminal is the "success" terminal, and the second is the "failure" terminal. I'm not completely sure how this works, but I know it involves a slowly moving platform.

: I can set this up I think. Am I correct that the timer is platform that will
: crush civilians (or at least aliens set to civilians), and by doing so it
: will trigger the map's winning condition "rescue" to failure.

: This is how I'd set it up: First, crusher platform.
: Give it the right speed, values, and make sure to set it to "initially
: activated".

: Connect a second platfrom to the crusher platform.

: Deactives: Never
: + deactivates adjancent platform.

: give it a tag number: 1-15

: And for your wires, give them both the same tag number.

: Now why is this working? Let me explain. Your crusher platfrom will start to
: move down at the miserable bobs. The only way to save them is to stop the
: platform. Our hero, the marine, finds 2 wires at different locations. The
: first one he smash will activate the platfrom right beside the crusher
: platfrom, giving no effect. When the player hits the second wires he'll
: deactivate the same platform. This trigger the function, "deactivate
: adjacent platform", which will deactivate the crusher platfrom and
: save the bobs.

: The longest time you can achive with this technique is: (with forge, mb you
: can alter it with chisel)

: 18 wu / 0.033 wu/s = 9 minutes

: I'm pretty sure there are ways to make this time longer. I have never made a
: map like this before so this was the sollution I came up with right now.
