can we get a capture the flag game mode.. take a flag between two middle flag sites 2/4 and 3/4 along front lines.. flag could be a ?slow spider unit? if the unit has only 1 sides army near it it can be controlled by them only?

or maybe capture and hold objectives?

double domination?

Sounds porcy to me.

There are certainly problems to solve, but it doesn't sound fundamentally unworkable. Capture the flag sounds like it would require a widget, a gadget, and an extra model or two. This sort of thing sounds perfect for a mutator, and it's probably more fruitful for someone to hack together a system and try it out than for us to spend a long time theorising about what may or may not work.

The page on how to do modding now tells you how to get started and release something: http://zero-k.info/mediawiki/index.php?title=Mod_Creation#More_Significant_Changes

Oh it did exist. I wasn't sure whether it was in ZK or just a different game. The problem with UArankIvica's modoptions is that code slowly breaks, and if it is complicated and never used, then nobody is going to keep it up to date. You could take the CTF code, put it in a mutator, and see if you can get it to work.

If it sounds porcy then remove the porcy stuff in this mode, e.g. all turrets expect the 2 artillery.
