  • A singleplayer map...

    Image

    or: info for mappers on how to do pushable crates (although they can be pushed by weapon force only)

    Do not put this on any servers - your players will hate you for it!
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

  • Consider the potential for multiplayer sokoban, any moving piece based board game, or even a simulated game of tug-of-war; this feature will almost surely allow for quite a few potent possibilities.

  • BTW, this map does not work in 2.3 but only in svn. However, to make it 2.3 compatible, it should suffice to replace the func_wall by misc_models and adding "solid" "4" to the crates. I'll rebuild the pk3 for 2.3 too.

    I just did that change, so sokoban.pk3 should be 2.3 compatible now.

    It isn't even a new feature, it is just abuse of existing features. The main idea is to use a generic entity (misc_models) and setting lots of entity keys on it that are normally only meant for QC code to change (like solid, movetype, damageforcescale).

    Possible movetypes for crates are 3 (MOVETYPE_WALK, frictionless) and 6 (MOVETYPE_TOSS, stops immediately when it hits ground and then stays there fixed).

  • There should be three speedrun categories for this map...

    1. Speedruns fully adhering to Sokoban rules
    2. Speedruns bending the Sokoban rules, but still bringing all six crates into the lava pool
    3. Speedruns that use less than six crates (if possible)

    For 1., IIRC I got 298 seconds, for 2., I got 182.1 seconds, for 3., I got 8.51 seconds.
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

  • So is it just mostly the angled surfaces that allow the crates to move? Or could it be done on a flat surface too?

  • they'd move on a flat surface too, but then they wouldn't snap to the field squares...
