could be dodgy. I'll look into it.

Just a comment, when the player loads up at the start (and gets the screen with Trestkons mugshot and what skills he can invest), instead of saying "Code-Name" "Real-Name" (ala the original DX), shouldn't it say "Avatar-Name" "Real-Name" (of course only the Real-Name var is changeable).

I think "Account name" might fit better.

what flag should the ogg player be checking to work out whether to play ambient track 1 or 2?

It's not a preset flag, you need to add a property to the player to let the mapper set which flag determines that.

ohhhhhhhhhh ok. That makes a lot of sense.

Shane, I tested the weaponsensetrigger. I couldn't get it to work at all, I tried several different settings. It's possible I had the wrong values set, but I don't think so.

I also tested the tnmoggmanager, it verks as well:D

Finished everything I could on the Training map. The molotov part is of course completely unimplemented pending the implementation of the actual system into the game. I'd say about half of this map is functional, the rest requires Shane's help to fix / set up.

http://tnm.offtopicproductions.com/team ... ackage.rar

That file contains the map, the compiled text and conversation packages needed to make it work, and the mission script for it, which needs to be compiled into the TNM package before the map will work. There is also a readme file with instructions on how to install and run it.

God dammit Shane, next time you send me something, at least stick around until you know it compiles right... wtf is this?

well I worked out why the guard is not activating the alarm in the training map. It turns out he just can't work out how to get to the alarm panel. I would suggest either placing a bunch more navigation points or moving the panel to a more accessible location. However experimenting with it has made several other bugs apparent.

Things I would like to change:
Stop it doing anything (following the player, going red, etc) when noone is sitting in the security chair.
Stop making an alarm sound when it does spot the player since the alarm should be coming from the actual alarm unit.
Spot the player instantly instead of tracking for a while.

That all sounds good, although I'm worried about the player's ability to hear that the alarm has been sounded if it's half-way across the map in an isolated security room...?

it's really not much of an alarm if it only goes off in the security room is it?
The alarm should set off the whole building

Yes I agree... but does it do that?
