I have a scripting question, first off I am not a server I am a client that wants to make scripts for server to run, and maybe some maps to go with them, my questions are,
(1) How do I get the coordinates for things like where to take someone in ETV?

(2) What do I do to make a script run on a map is do I just put the map thing in the script?

I would be most happy if someone can help me out you can reply to this message or e-mail me at herethank you much for the help!

To get the coordinates, run around on the map by yourself (after you start aq2, just map [mapname] at the console...e.g., map urban), run to the spot you want, and type "viewpos" at the console. This will spit out a set of 3-dimensional coordinates.

Remember, that the actual bounding box (if these are coordinates for TARGET_AREA) will be 30x30x30 large, with one of the corners of that 30x30x30 "cube" starting at where you stand. Determine the positive direction by some trial and error (move around and do viewpos a couple times).

There's documentation on how to test your script. https://assets.aq2world.com/archive/websites/aqdt.fear.net/scenarios/ "Scripting Guide"...
