Screw Scramble - New team based game mode!

[CutmanMike]

Screw Scramble is a new team deathmatch based game mode with a twist. Players must battle it out in order to obtain screws from fallen foes (or allies). The screws must be taken to either Auto or Reggae (depending on your team) who randomly spawn in the arena. Once Auto or Reggae reach the screw limit, the game is over and the corresponding team wins! Auto and Reggae will reward those who bring big batches of screws, but be careful! Dying results in you dropping ALL of your screws, for anyone to pick back up!

More info:

Game must be played in Team Deathmatch (teamplay) or Team Game (teamgame). The latter is used for playing with CTF maps where Auto and Reggae replace the Red/Blue flags.
 Your screws are displayed at the bottom of the screen. How many Auto/Reggae require is displayed on the right. The highlighted character is the one you should head to for screw deposits!
 Players drop 5 screws plus whatever extra screws they were holding when they die.
 Large deposits will result in unique rewards. 15 screws or more gives you an MTank. 25 Increases your fire rate. 30 gives you triple shot! These bonuses cannot be stacked (except MTank obviously) and you only receive one bonus per deposit.
 The default screw requirement is 150 screws. It can be changed via the winlimit server setting. The winlimit is multiplied by 10, so winlimit 20 will change the screw requirement to 200.
 Carrying lots of screws slows you down. It only becomes noticeable near the 100 screw mark. This feature may be removed.
 Junk Shield and Leaf Shield do not appear in this mode.
 Currently only supports 2 teams, but may be increased in the future.

Something original!! I'll play it when I got the time :P!

[lol]

This looks interesting! *downloads*

Thanks for inviting me to test this.


This is a very fun game mode.

So it's skulltag without the skulltag.

Kinda looks like Coin Mode in SSBM and SSBB, with a few twists here and there.
Looks great! Hopefully I can get my blasted server workin' again.
How come I never get invited to test these kinds of thin's? D:

Looks fun, will be hosting a server shortly.  Small bug tho:

(click to show/hide)

Dr Light's team has this for rapid
   if(amount<35)
      {
      SetFont("BIGFONT");
      SetHudSize(800,600,0);
      HudMessage(s:"cfAuto: cjThat's a lot of screws! I've upgraded your fire rate!"; HUDMSG_PLAIN, 46, CR_BLUE, 400.0, 210.0, 4.0);
      GiveInventory("RageRune",1);
      LocalAmbientSound("item/1up",127);
      terminate;

Dr Wily has this

   if(amount<30)
      {
      SetFont("BIGFONT");
      SetHudSize(800,600,0);
      HudMessage(s:"cfReggae: cjScrews! Screws! Fire Faster! More Screws Faster!"; HUDMSG_PLAIN, 46, CR_BLUE, 400.0, 210.0, 4.0);
      GiveInventory("RageRune",1);
      LocalAmbientSound("item/1up",127);
      terminate;
      }

So if a player on Dr light's team has 31-34 screws they will get rapid while wily will get spread I believe.

Oh, Also found that Dr Wily's team needs 15 screws for an Mtank and Dr Light's team only needs 10.

Also I'd suggest smaller awards for 5 screws.  Health, 2 wtanks..or somethin.

Good spot! Hopefully that won't warrant another release too soon...

[lol]

Tried it and it is REALLY fun. The only (really small) complaint I have is the Auto/Reggae placement, but then again it makes me laugh hard when they're spawned next to each other on Cutman's stage.

Also some fun rewards mike never said
you grab 325 screws: you lose the ability to move, unless you have hard knuckle
you grab 650 screws: your controls are reversed
650+: fast reverse movement

XD you gotta love numeric underflow

[CutmanMike]

Indeed, I should probably cap it at max 255 screws or something I guess

Ah, the coin mode was just what I was thinking of.
I'm also assuming this is compatible with Classes?

No 999 is fine, it's also fun if your on the light team with a sonic skin, pick up over 2000 screws, you'll run backwards faster than quickman XD and epic lulz if you die as sonic just explodes with screws (felt like making a custom version and reskining them as rings)

[KillerChair]

Sounds like lots of fun!
And hopefully it will be played more than roboenza!

Moral of the story, don't play this on Toad Man.
