Retail behavior. If I recall it does add the event score to the player totals just not to the team total. I checked multi scoring over a year ago though. Wonder if that ever made the Wiki.

I've been meaning to fix that one myself for a while actually.

Hmmmmm. Looks like I mis-remembered the problem I had with it. The team gets the points. The individual players on that team don't.

 Is that actually what you want fixed or are you having some problem with the team not getting a score?

Team wasn't getting the score. The rudimentary KotH mission found here demonstrates the problem: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,52898.0.html

I don't think individual players were ever intended to get points from events in MP, as you'd have no way of giving them to the specific player who triggered the event.

Might be nice to be able to split the points between the members of that team though.

King of the Hill is a good example of this. Team 0 might take more casualties but actually win the match. However at the end the players of team 2 will advance faster because they had more kills.

I suspect a new feature is called for here too.


While I'm at it, stick some messages on those two events in the test mission. I suspect that the problem is simply that the events aren't triggering at all rather than a problem with scoring them.

Maybe what we need to do is start a discussion on the forums about all multi scoring and come up with a better system. Coop could use some revisions as well. Of course it would need to be an option so retail scoring could still be used.

Go for it. Bounce some ideas around and I'll implement the best one.

Did try adding messages to the events back before I posted this bug (it's the first thing I do whenever an event is being troublesome), and the events trigger just fine.

Should be fixed. If not open a new bug and I'll take a look.
