This mod is in early development, with a long roadmap ahead. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to ask on discord!

Summary

This mod allows players and server admins to build Paintball arenas for fun fast-paced combat, even on PvE servers.

The mechanics are inspired by old FPS games like DOOM, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Marathon, and Golden Eye.

Enjoy!

Quick Start Summary

• Build an Arena (From structures, or play outdoors)
• Admin-Spawn and Place a Game Terminal
• Place Loot Spawners
• Place Respawn Points
• Place Teleporters (If needed)

Then you're good to go! Just start a match, and shoot your friends. =)

Available Structures

• Game Terminal
• [list]
• This structure creates a giant force-field around your arena area (see screenshots). This shield keeps out roaming dinos, and only allows players inside if a game is not already in progress. To enter the arena, just walk in at ground level -- it will teleport you inside when you touch the shield.
• When entering the arena, you will be automatically assigned a colored team (Red/Blue/Green/Yellow/Purple), and your character's slot bar will be populated with the starter paintball items (and the locked items that must be found/unlocked during the match).
• Players can change their own team by holding Shift + F. Admins can change another player's team manually by selecting that players multiuse wheel.
• All items are available inside the Game Terminal's inventory.
• Once your arena is built, admins can start/stop games from the Game Terminal's inventory or multiuse wheel.
• Admins can use the multiuse wheel to set the Game Duration and the Respawn Time for players, or change settings to allow players to manage the arena themselves.
• The Game Terminal can be named, and then admins can remotely start/stop games via RCON commands. For example, a Game Terminal could be called "Arena1", and the admins could start the terminal by executing "cheat ScriptCommand Paintball Start:Arena1" or "cheat ScriptCommand Paintball Stop:Arena1". If multiple Game Terminals share the same name, they will all be started/stopped with the same command. NOTE: Game Terminal names cannot contain spaces -- numbers and characters only.

[*] Respawn Points

• These respawn points are color-coded to indicate which team they're for.
• The team color can be changed in the structure's multiuse wheel.
• When respawning, players will be teleported to a random respawn point that matches their team's color.
• Be sure to place plenty around the map, so that spawn camping isn't possible.

[*] Loot Spawners

• This structure will spawn random loot on a timer.
• Add loot to the structure's inventory to make it a spawn option. When it's time to spawn an item, the structure will select a random item from it's inventory, and spawn a copy of that. So if you want it to spawn ammo twice as often as a gun, add 2 stacks of the ammo, and 1 gun.
• The loot respawn time can be set via the multiuse wheel by admins.

[*] Teleport Pads

• These pads instantly teleport you when you step on them.
• To setup the teleport pads, assign a name to each teleporter via the multiuse wheel. Then, to set a teleporter's destination, use the multiuse wheel to scan for teleporter pads, and then assign whichever pad you want.
• If two or more teleport pads share the same name, then a random pad will be selected as the destination. This allows you the flexibility to establish multiple destinations for things like "Lower Level" or "Upper Level", without forcing players onto a specific pad.

Available Weapons

• Paintbrush
• [list]
• This is your starter melee weapon. It does massive damage, but only if you can get in close enough to melee somebody.

[*] Slingshot

• This is your starter ranged weapon. It has moderate damage, but it's slow. However, it does not require ammo, so you're never completely without a ranged weapon.

[*] Rifle

• Moderate damage, with a fast fire rate. This will be your bread-and-butter weapon if you can find it!

[*] Sniper

• High damage, but with a slow reload. This longneck has improved stability, and a permanent sniper scope.

[*] Double-Barreled Shotgun

• Fires 12 paintballs at a time, in a big spread.

Paintball Buff - Effects

The paintball buff does various things that help the setup the player to play paintball:

• Equips a cloth set of paintball armor, that will be recolored to match whatever team you choose.
• Allows the player to hold "Shift + F" to select a new team.
• Prevents all damage, including fall damage (feel free to jump around the arena!)
• Provides food/water/stamina/insulation/oxygen to disable to survival mechanics while playing paintball.
• Increases the player's run speed, and reduces the camera bob when running.
• Prevents additional buffs from being added (just so that players don't attempt to cheat by using consumables). You'll receive an annoying error message if a buff is blocked. =)
• Normalizes run-speed so that low-level players are not at a disadvantage. (INI configurable)
