[Mutator] Patriarch HP left

[Phada]

There is a tiny incoherence in the code (setting a variable which I dont even need anymore), I will like to upload the final version but before I wants to be sure that the mutator work correctly and will be whitelisted.

Also I've tried to add a option "big message" but I am not satisfied of the result because the font used doesn't have the % character, which results at the end by "(100.00(?))" instead of "(100.00%)" for exemple.

Final update released, no real change just some corrections.

 

[Demon_333]

Have you applied this for whitelist?

 

[Phada]

Yes, both mutators:

Awesome, goodluck i hope it gets whitelisted

Not sure if you're willing to do this (or if TWI would whitelist it), but I think it'd be really cool to have a health bar somewhere on the screen (perhaps near the top like in a fighting game) that shows the health of the Patriarch to all players. Maybe have the bar disappear when no damage has been taken in a while, and fade back in when he takes damage to display his current health.

Yeah it would, but there's no way it could be whitelisted.

Like said earlier, knowing his HP ad not having to be a commando is a gameplay advantage compared to those who don't know how much HP is left. It would sound nice on those 40 man servers that don't need perks enabled though, super mega boss!

Works like a charm. Thanks for this.

Showing the Patriarch's remaining HPs after the squad has already wiped is an awesome idea and doesn't affect gameplay in the slightest. I would love to see this whitelisted.

 

[Phada]

Finally whitelisted! Everyone can use this small mutator without disabling the perks now.

Have this installed and haven't seen it work yet. Guess I don't wipe all that much but is anyone having any issues or is there anything else you need to enable?

Everyone has to die vs the Patriarch, it only displays as a quick text message.
You may miss it and need to open the console to see what it said.

Tested it tonight, didn't see a msg and always check console. No go. Can it be installed in the system folder for dedicated servers or is it client only?

I'm really not the guy to ask for troubleshooting, but it's always possible you have a mutator that's conflicting with it. Might be worth setting it as the only mutator, Custom match length 0 waves (go straight to boss) and make sure you can in fact get the mutator to work on its own.

If it works then, it means some mutator you're running is conflicting with it.

Just remember that it will work if you equip it in solo, but must be added to server packages when used on a server. its intended to be used as a server-side mutator, not a clientside one.

Thanks. I'll do that then. I guess the original instructions didn't state this. Appreciate it

Read my sticky on mod installation if you need help. lucidious contributed a bit on serverside stuff.

Doesn't work D= not sure about single player... But when I try to add it to my server I get this error:

Failed to load 'Class KFPatHPLeft.KFPatHPLeft': Failed to find object 'Class KFPatHPLeft.KFPatHPLeft'

Every other mutator I've tried works... For some reason this one doesn't

 

[FluX]

Delete what you have on the server (to do with this mutator) and reinstall it. You obviously are missing files.
