How To Lock Vehicles

Are you tired of people taking off from your base and flying directly to the enemy base only to bail and steal one of their planes? Well you can change that by locking vehicles.

This is very easy to do. In the ObjectSpawnTemplates.con, add this line to each template that you want locked:

ObjectTemplate.teamOnVehicle 1

Let's say you add this line to a fighterspawner that spawns a mig29 and f16. Any place a mig29 spawns, the coalition will be locked out. Any place the f16 spawns, the opposition will be locked out. Simple.

But what if you want to lock a vehicle that spawns in places besides the main base? Maybe you want to lock tanks within a base, but not the ones at the control points. To do this you'll have to have two spawners: one for the main bases, and one for the control points. Just add the code to the main base spawner.

rem ** Locked heavytankspawner **
ObjectTemplate.create ObjectSpawner heavytankspawner
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 2 M1A1
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 1 T72
ObjectTemplate.MinSpawnDelay 40
ObjectTemplate.MaxSpawnDelay 60
ObjectTemplate.SpawnDelayAtStart 0
ObjectTemplate.TimeToLive 45
ObjectTemplate.Distance 40
ObjectTemplate.DamageWhenLost 10
ObjectTemplate.teamOnVehicle 1

rem ** Unlocked heavytankspawner **
ObjectTemplate.create ObjectSpawner LadaSpawner
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 2 M1A1
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 1 T72
ObjectTemplate.MinSpawnDelay 40
ObjectTemplate.MaxSpawnDelay 60
ObjectTemplate.SpawnDelayAtStart 0
ObjectTemplate.TimeToLive 45
ObjectTemplate.Distance 40
ObjectTemplate.DamageWhenLost 10
