Team Fortress 2: Objectives Plugin

Description

The Objectives plugin, written in Python using Eventscripts, allows each team to vote on a Team Leader. The Team Leader can place objective markers (colored smoke) anywhere on the map and manage players through an easy menu. This script is designed to mimic the objective markers that can be set by Commanders in the Battlefield series.

Commands

Type $obj in general chat while you are a Team Leader to access the main Objectives menu. You can automate this by typing bind <key> "say $obj" in your console (~ key), then pressing <key>.

To access the Objectives compass as any player, type bind <key> +obj_compass in your console (~ key), where <key> is the key you want to bind. To display the compass, simply hold down <key>, and the compass will show around your feet, with laser arrows pointing towards objectives you are assigned to. Release <key> to make the compass go away.

Console Commands

obj [add|del|move] [objective_name]

Example binds:

bind KP_END "obj add Attack"

bind KP_DOWNARROW "obj move Attack"

bind KP_PGDN "obj del Attack"
