Custom Zones

We have updated the Killzone system so that players are now able to create custom zones, with an expanded range of options for how they want their zones to function. The following page has all the information you need to create a zone which is tailored to your needs.

Zone Editing

So you have a zone, but you would like to change something about it without deleting and creating a new one. Use the commands below to edit the zone to your liking. You can also add features like area display and custom messaging to your zone should you see fit.

📟

zones.editcustomzone "Name" "Setting" "Value"

Where "Name" is the name of the zone you would like to edit.

"Setting" is the setting that you would like to change.

Setting	Value	Description
enabled	0 or 1	Toggles whether this zone is active.
position	(x,y,z)	Defines the centre of the generated zone. Uses map co-ordinates.
rotation	value	Defines the rotation of the generated zone.
type	sphere or box	Defines the shape of the generated zone.
size	(x,y,z)	| IF BOX| area of effect in meters.
size	value	| IF SPHERE| radius of effect in meters.
allowpvpdamage	0 or 1	Toggles whether players can damage other players.
allownpcdamage	0 or 1	Toggles whether NPCs can damage players within the zone. (NOTE: Players will always be able to damage NPCs)
radiationdamage	value	Defines the amount of radiation to apply per server tick when within the generated zone.
allowbuildingdamage	0 or 1	Defines whether players can damage buildings when within the zone. (NOTE: Players can always damage their own buildings)
allowbuilding	0 or 1	Defines whether players can build within the generated zone.
showarea	0 or 1	Show a visible area within 100 meters of the zone.
color	(R,G,B)	Colour of the visible area, (0 -> 255 for each colour)
showchatmessage	0 or 1	Should the player receive a chat message when entering/leaving
entermessage	“string"	Message to display when entering the zone.
leavemessage	“string"	Message to display when exiting the zone.

Example

📟

zones.editcustomzone "Test" showarea 1

zones.editcustomzone "Test" color (255,0,255)

zones.editcustomzone "Test" showchatmessage 1

zones.editcustomzone "Test" entermessage "Welcome to the Test Zone!"

zones.editcustomzone "Test" leavemessage "See you later!"

The above commands have the following effects, when they are entered separately on the GPORTAL console:

• The "Test" Zone now has a ring around it, visually defining the zone in-game

• The ring's colour is now Magenta

• The zone has in-game messaging enabled

• When you enter the zone, the message "Welcome to the Test Zone!" will appear in-game

• When you leave the zone, the message "See you later!" will appear in-game

Zone Priorities

Overlapping Custom Zones can have different effects, depending on their properties.

In general, the priority for zones is given to the non-default state of that property.

For example, in a regular server with no other settings, the following priorities apply:

Default Servers

• PvP Damage OFF BEATS PvP Damage ON (Default)

• NPC Damage OFF BEATS NPC Damage ON (Default)

• Building Damage OFF BEATS Building Damage ON (Default)

• Building Privilege OFF BEATS Building Privilege ON (Default)

Note:

Radiation damage in a zone will always apply, and will stack with other radiation sources.

For example, the overlap area between 2 Custom Zones each with 25 radiation damage will be 50 radiation damage.

PvE Servers

When the commands allowPvPDamage = 0 and allowPvBDamage = 0, the rules are slightly different.

In general, the priority for zones is given to the non-default state of that property.

• PvP Damage ON BEATS PvP Damage OFF (Default)

• NPC Damage ON BEATS NPC Damage OFF (Default)

The priority for building privilege remains the same.

Note: Custom Zones will not override any properties of a Monument Zone, regardless of the above priorities.

Editing Monument Killzones

Monument Killzones are part of the new Custom Zones system, meaning that you can edit some characteristics of the monument's zone using the following commands:

📟

zones.editcustomzone "Monument Name" "Setting" "Value"

Example

📟

zones.editcustomzone "gas_station_1" "radiation" "25"

zones.editcustomzone "gas_station_1" "showarea" "1"

• This enables 25 Radiation damage at Oxum's Gas Station

• Oxum's Gas Station now has a visual border around it, outlining the Monument Killzone

Note: You cannot disable the no-build zone of monuments.

---

Additional Options

There are a few more commands that come with this feature, which are listed below:

Type	Command	Input Type	Description
📟	zones.customzoneinfo “Zone Name”	“string"	Lists the following information about the specified zone. Name Enabled Position Size Type Player Damage NPC Damage Radiation Damage Player Building Damage Allow Building Show Area Show Chat Message Enter Message Leave Message

Monument Killzones

Monument Killzones still function as normal, but now fall under the new Zones system.
