I was wondering how would I make a mod that allows radar to always be on. I have tried putting "scr_game_forceuav" in under onPlayerSpawn(); and in the server.cfg and it doesn't show the dots on radar.

You can find the code for that on

m2demo\maps\mp\gametypes\oitc.gsc

self setClientDvar("g_compassShowEnemies", 1);

self setClientDvar("g_compassShowEnemies", 1);

 

Well, should be the same as setting: set scr_game_forceuav 1 actually, as this can be found in _playerlogic.gsc

under initClientDvars();:

 

 

	self setClientDvars( "cg_drawSpectatorMessages", 1,
					 "g_compassShowEnemies", getDvar( "scr_game_forceuav" ),
					 "cg_scoreboardPingGraph", 1 );

 

 

EDIT: OP is right. The scr_game_forceuav and/or self setClientDvar("g_compassShowEnemies", 1);

doesn't seem to do anything at all.

Well looking at _uav.gsc, i found self.hasRadar = true; , which does work fine.

 

So just do this on spawn (or connect but player.hasRadar = true; then...):

onPlayerSpawned()
{
self endon("disconnect");

for(;
{
	self waittill("spawned_player");
	self.hasRadar = true;
}
}

 

For faster uav updates add: self.radarMode = "fast_radar";

 

BTW: Which gamemode are you running? You might want to restrict uav as killstreak..it will probably interfere with self.hasRadar, setting it to false after someone called it.

This is just for 1v1s so there won't be any killstreaks. Is there any way to change the radar update time manually so that it is faster than fast_radar?

These are default values try adjusting them to lower values...haven't tried this though.

 

//i'd guess this one is for self.radarMode = "normal_radar";

self setClientDvar( "compassRadarUpdateTime", "4" ); //in sec i think, min: 0.01 max: 60

 

// and this for self.radarMode = "fast_radar"; , but havent tested it...

self setClientDvar( "compassFastRadarUpdateTime", "2" ); // min 0.1 max: 60

 

 

More client dvars you might want to mess with (note: these are not the default values):

self setClientDvar( "compassEnemyFootstepEnabled", "1" ); 
self setClientDvar( "compassEnemyFootstepMaxRange", "99999" ); 
self setClientDvar( "compassEnemyFootstepMaxZ", "99999" ); 
self setClientDvar( "compassEnemyFootstepMinSpeed", "0" );
