The three virtues of a programmer: Laziness, Impatience, and Hubris. – Larry Wall
Legacy:Assault
Unreal Tournament's Assault game type. One team assaults a base guarded by the other team and has to fulfill a given number of tasks within limited time; the other team has to prevent that. After a round has ended (because the assaulting team has completed its mission or the time ran out), assaulters and defenders switch positions.
Assault games consist of two matches. The way Assault manages to remember which half it's in, despite completely reloading the map (and hence all the variables in the GameInfo (UT) or anywhere else in the map for that matter) is to save the variables to UnrealTournament.ini. These variables are loaded when the second match of the Assault game starts.
This gametype's class is called ASGameInfo in UT2004.
