Purpose

LevelConfigManager Is mainly used for editing the weapons players start with as well modify default health, shield armor and put in timed messages which might explain the map and/or who made the map but it also provides a lot of other actors that might be useful for you map such as the Keys i.e. KeyObjective, KeyPickup and KeyTrigger these are often used in solo trial maps and open trial maps. As of now the tool is used in 300+ trial maps but that's pretty much because everyone likes to get rid of the Assault Rifle :P.

LevelConfigActor or LCA is the main and most important actor of the LevelConfigManager package, LCA has features such as customized pawn properties i.e. Health, HealthMax, LCA also provides many other features such as TimedMessages which lets the L.D.s set a custom message about their map that will be displayed to players every few minutes(random) this feature includes Map Author, a notification about LCA and a credits message.

Note: Almost every struct in LCA has a property named bEnabled, which is self-explanatory.

Struct 'sWeapon'

Type: int

The amount of initial ammo each weapon will have.

Struct 'sWeaponList'

DefaultStartWeapon

Type: class<Weapon>

The weapon class to use.

bCanDropWeapon

Type: bool

Whether the player will be able to throw this weapon.

Struct 'sDefWepList'

DefaultStartWeapons

Type: array<sWeaponList>

A list of weapons players will spawn with, each weapon can have its bCanDropWeapon configured.

Property group 'DefaultWeapons'

StartWeaponList

Type: sDefWepList

A struct with a list of weapons and an option bEnabled to decide whether players will use this list as their default weapons.

Property group 'Weapons'

Members

  • FT_None
Don't force the players team
  • FT_Red
Force the players team to red a.k.a attackers.
  • FT_Blue

bNoPawnCollision

Type: bool

Because of trials players blocking each other is a major issue therefor mutators have been made to turn off the collision, however people don't have or don't use those mutators and so its better to have this implemented in the map itself.
