My ZoneWars Map instantly ends

Summary

I really need help. A zone wars map of mine had 200k views but the start is bugged (It ends instantly). Everyone that spawns is in team 5 (class selector is used) and the end condition (last standing) is off. Then I used a Round settings device that is disabled at the start but enabled when the players are spawned into their team areas after a timer, that turns the last standing end condition on. So it should work but somehow it still instantly ends at the beginning?

This is an old bug, I think maybe the round setting device, sets the last man standing stuff before the round starts, before its disabled for the round.

The workaround is to use trackers and player counters in a way so that the devices don’t start until enough players join. I have it in a text file if you want to try and implement it

Yeah that would be great. And thanks for your quick answer:)

This may need a little bit of tweaking to allow for the Team 5, or maybe not… could probably be just incorporated into the 4 game teams

Its meant to auto start the last team standing counters when a second team joins, So a single player or team could stay in game until others arrive.

Its fairly long winded and may need tailoring to your situation, let me know where you have issues

Ok thats really alot but I’ll try it out , thanks!

It’s a lot on paper, but when you put the devices down its not so bad
2 Player Counters & 2 triggers per team, which you can line up with the team class selectors
a tracker with 2 triggers on it
and an end game device.

I’ve shared that a few times mostly for zone wars,sometimes its needed to be modified slightly to suit the project, this one is using the Island Settings Eliminations count to determine the team win, but can be modified for different types of game ends by island settings or devices

It finally works now, thank you!! Had to modifie it a little bit but it works:)
