Mutators - Faster Harvesters, Disable Bots, Snipers Only


AlienXAXS

Recommended Posts

Hello and thank you for your interest in my first Mutator for RenegadeX!

This is the first mutator that i have ever created for an Unreal game, i hope you enjoy.

This mutator comes with three sub-mutators, these are:

  • AGNMutator.FasterHarvester
  • AGNMutator.DisableBots
  • AGNMutator.SnipersOnly

Below is an explanation of each one...

AGNMutator.FasterHarvester

==========================

What does it do:

> This mutator allows you to set the harvester speed.

How do I install it:

> Ensure you have AGNMutator.u inside your CookedPC folder, and modify your startup URL to contain:

> ?mutator=AGNMutator.FasterHarvester

How do I configure it:

> Modify your startup URL with the following:

> ?mutator=AGNMutator.FasterHarvester?AGNMutatorHarvesterSpeed=1700 (Change 1700 to something else)

AGNMutator.DisableBots

======================

What does it do:

> Checks for bots being active in the server and disconnects them.

How do I install it:

> Ensure you have AGNMutator.u inside your CookedPC folder, and modify your startup URL to contain:

> ?mutator=AGNMutator.DisableBots

How do I configure it:

> No configuration is required.

AGNMutator.SnipersOnly

======================

What does it do:

> Enables an old-style C&C-Renegade Sniper Only server configuration:

-> Disables all base defenses.

-> Disables all weapons bar the $0, $500 and $1000 sniper rifle classes.

-> Disables Harvesters.

-> Disables all vehicles.

-> Disables the random pickup crates from spawning.

-> Enable God-Mode for players who have not purchased a sniper class yet (This is intended to help prevent PT camping)

How do I install it:

> Ensure you have AGNMutator.u inside your CookedPC folder, and modify your startup URL to contain:

> ?mutator=AGNMutator.SnipersOnly

How do I configure it:

> No configuration is required.

General Tips and Tricks

=======================

I want to run more than one Mutator at a time, How?

Stack up your mutators with a comma seperated list on your URL, like so:

?mutator=AGNMutator.SnipersOnly,AGNMutator.DisableBots

OR

?mutator=AGNMutator.SnipersOnly,AGNMutator.FasterHarvester?AGNMutatorHarvesterSpeed=1700

If you need help, please let me know :)

While I appreciate the variety of things this game can do and I foresee GREAT use for many of these (and good work on these particular mutators), I hope the game will soon enough allow us to see what mutators and such each server is running.

@Kil - I know the patch will fix some of the stuff that these Mutators do, but it was a good starting point for me to learn how to make them, unsure why you are having issues with the link, it is working okay here.

@SFJake - Yeah, a mutator list in the server browser would be nice (The original UT shows this i think).

I do hope that in the near future the RenX Dev team opens up their doors to allow for mutators to work directly with RenX code with ease, at the moment decompiling their current compiled sources is very time consuming but it sure is fun.

Yes we do plan to support mutators properly (with a specific Rx_Mutator class with extra hooks) but seeing as we're still in beta, supporting third party development isn't priority, and not recommended seeing as the game itself hasn't stabilised out yet, it is still subject to a fair bit of change thus third party content will likely break, or even become redundant (like in this case) in subsequent versions. But of course even now we still do like to see people trying stuff out to see the potential, and so that you guys will be as prepared as possible for when we will be supporting it.

Link appears to be working for me now.
