There is no way to have things happen based on the skill level, but you can alter the multipliers for the difficulty settings such as the amount of damage enemies deal through commands. You could do something based on the player count as Gary said but that's about as good as it gets.

Just use that to set up difficult levels.
But that would force me have a inmense trigger on all the map.

That is just what i was looking for.

Is a shame that the I/O thing doesn´t allow you to do conditionals or another logical structures outside of loopings and "strict" if-else on some entities.

My biggest question about hammer:

Who the hell is the guy on the 'obsolete' sprite?

It appears on Hammer 3.4 also, so, it must be someone at VALVe, or maybe even the own creator of Wolfcraft.

Does anyone know how to make civilians killable? I tried playing around with the damage filter, but that didn't seem to work. I know it is possible, because I have seen some maps with this feature.

Thanks.

I don't necessarily want them to hate the player. Right now I am wondering if it is possible to have non-aggressive citizens, that just kind of walk around and do their thing, but the player can kill them.

Ok so I am still trying to figure out how to make civilians killable but not aggressive. So far I have tried damage filters, and I tried to set the player to hate the npc, but that just seems to break hammer. Any suggestions/ advice? I am kind of stuck on this one.

Make Sure "Reciprocal" is set to yes. I just did a test with those settings and it worked:

Also, make sure to give the relationship the "ApplyRelationship" input every time a new player spawns or that new player won't be hated by the citizen and can't damage them either. I would use "OnPlayerSpawn" on info_player_deathmatch to do so.

This was the data that i was looking for. Had a problem with an entity, and i semi-fixed it, but i forgot the effect of this output. Thanks again f0x <3 .

I have a lightmap glitch when I compile the map (full vvis/vrad and HDR), I think it is related with lightmaps because it only appears on surfaces with the lightmap scale at 4.

Screenshot here.

Does anyone know what's wrong or how to fix?

PS: That stupid imageshitshack degraded image quality and the glitches are harder to see on the screenshot. Sorry for this.

I have a similar issue, although fortunately is small and most of the times gets ignored.

The only thing that i can think is check the angle settings of the light_enviorement, along with seeing if you set everything to the grid.

Heya, i got a slight problem with a ''train'' that is suposed to stop slowly i tried several ways alrdy but it seems to instand stop when i use the stopping input (while moving 900 units a sec) instead of slowly stopping, even when i use the ease in/out setting it does not realy slowl down niceley. also tried it in a more manual way but doesnt seem to work either it just instand stops and ignores the other speeds.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.
