[Gamemode] Offensive-Core: TDM

[NikitaFoxze]

Offensive-Core - is a large project combining a multifunctional game mode and accompanying files written in the Pawn language for servers in SA-MP and open.mp. Based on the implemented methods, you can create absolutely favorite modes and submodes for them.

The code can be easily upgraded and expanded for your needs. The project presents the following modes: TDM, DM and Room.

The project is not a modification of other game modes. It is written and thought out completely from scratch.

Main systems

• Administration
  
• Transport
  
• Inventory
  
• Marketplace 
  
• Weapon and token drop 
  
• Quests Dean's Assistant
  
• Modes: TDM, DM, Room
  

The logic of operation of all modes
First of all, you need to know that each mode is in its own folder and has its own systems in files.
In the root folder of each mode there is a folder "locations", in it there is a file with various systems for manipulating locations and the locations themselves are in their own folders.

When the server is launched, various systems are initialized and locations for modes (TDM, DM) are created/loaded. When a location is changed in a mode, all created components (pickups, objects, etc.) on the location are deleted and new ones are created for the new location.

This method of creating and deleting locations has many advantages.
Modes can be divided into several sessions, so you need to think about SA-MP limits, and more specifically about the limits on creating Transport and GangZone, other components such as pickups are created dynamically.

To summarize, each mode has its own folders and subfolders, each mode can also be divided into sessions, and locations in them are created and deleted.
All modes are united by the file "system.pwn" in the folder "game-modes". This can be seen in the code itself.

Architecture
The project architecture was reduced to maximum simplification and ease of use. As mentioned above, each mode has its own folder, as do the other systems. The most basic functions and systems are in the file "offensive-core.pwn". The remaining systems are in the "sources" folder. Some systems are located right there, these are "vehicle", "admin", etc. A separate subfolder "player" was allocated for the player, for the "game-modes" modes.

The distribution of systems into files was logical, since storing tens of thousands of lines of code in one file was already quite difficult for editing anything.

Files
header.inc - stores information that in theory or in practice can be used in other systems (vars, defines, functions).
system.pwn - these are the systems themselves used for any purpose.

Note
Initially, all the code was in one file and therefore you can find illogical moments in the code, but they do not interfere with work at all.

Powerful TDM mode
The highlight of all of this is the TDM mode. For each location, you can create different individual moments and situations, for example, in the "Desert" location, you can drop a nuclear bomb on the opposing team.

To do this, you need to capture the "Communication Point", then blow up the door that is nearby and launch the satellite.
Then get the access codes with the /accode command and get on the submarine and launch a nuclear missile there, which will fly to the enemy base.
With existing systems specifically for TDM mode, this is already easily implemented directly in the file for the "Desert" location. 

With all this, it is easy to manipulate various components through code, and these same components created will be automatically deleted when changing the location and resumed again! This works in different sessions and they are not connected to each other.

Difference between RU and RU-EN version
The RU and RU-EN versions differ in the choice of language on the server and fundamentally in some moments.
The server was initially made for the RU-EN version, but soon it turned out to be unnecessary and even very disturbing.

Both versions work, but it is recommended to choose the RU version, in it the logic of creating CreatePlayer3DTextLabel has been changed to the dynamic CreateDynamic3DTextLabel.

In the RU-EN version, 3DText had to be created separately for each player using the CreatePlayer3DTextLabel function, and this turned out to be very problematic and inconvenient.

You mentions the project's ease of customization and expansion for specific needs. However, it doesn't detail the process. How easy is it, in practice, to create new sub-modes or modify existing ones within the Offensive-Core framework? Are there clear guidelines or documentation for adding custom features or systems?

Hello, unfortunately there are no specific instructions, I could write them, but I don't have time for that.

Regarding simple code extension and creation of new modes. On Offensive-Core it is really easier to create and change modes than to create this logic of work from scratch or use other game modes.

In fact, the principle of work is very simple. There is a mode and sessions for it. There are various locations for the mode and components on the location (pickups, objects, transport, etc.). When the server starts, these locations are created and when, for example, the match ends, then all created components are deleted (that is, the entire location) and a new location is created with its own components. When a player enters the mode, then the necessary components for him are shown or created on the location that is currently in the mode.

You can see the simplest example of how the modes work in the DM mode folder, everything is simple there. But in the TDM mode folder everything is much more complicated and you need to keep track of all the components.

Unfortunately, I did not have time to transfer the server only to the EN version, there is only the RU version and the RU-EN version...

Excelent work, 5 stars +rep.
Please, do a EN version

Great gamemode! While exploring gaming development, I found this interesting article about AI in game design (https://pinzhanghao.com/) that could enhance such modes. For testing breaks, I enjoy this geography challenge (https://freegeoguessrgame.com/). Speaking of game mechanics, this puzzle system (http://freeblockblastonline.com/) and this solving mechanism (https://blockblastsolveronline.com/) could inspire some interesting features. This gaming guide (https://animerebornguide.com/) also has some good insights about game mode development.

Great gamemode! The architecture design is impressive. While exploring similar gaming systems, I found an interesting article about AI integration in game development (https://pinzhanghao.com/) that could enhance such frameworks. During development breaks, I enjoy this geography-based game (https://freegeoguessrgame.com/) for inspiration. Speaking of game mechanics, this puzzle system (http://freeblockblastonline.com/) and this solving mechanism (https://blockblastsolveronline.com/) could inspire some unique features. This comprehensive guide (https://animerebornguide.com/) also offers valuable insights for mode development.
