flip-mitters on high terrain, and an ancient ruin to defend, get in there! #teks #ACassist #firepower

Note: Please stop reporting this map for auto-fail. This map auto-fails because it needs the shield keys from the following maps:
- Map 93: Level 1 by Zack.
- Map 111: Level 2 by Zack.

To play this map, you need to first play those two maps.

I get an instant mission failure on this map for some reason. (using v1.72)

Mmm yup. Same here. :/
On v1.72. Windows 7 64-bit version.

[Grauniad]

Instant mission failures are indicative that the map author has a pre-requisite map you have to play first.

Often the map author forgets to output a message before ending the mission when this is the case.

[knucracker]

Yeah, it looks like two shield keys are required before you can play this mission.  Which two, I'm not sure...

[Volix]

It requires "Level 1" and "Level 2" by Zack.  I think the lock caught a ride with the fipp-mitter script.   ::)

durn it ???, i was sure i deleted all the CRPL cores and purged the scripts. must have done something wrong somewhere. sorry dudes! but i do recommend zack's maps anyway so play them first and i'll be more careful when pinching scripts in future :-[

[Flabort]

This really should be in the official code examples thread by now, I think I'll go do that, but the "official" Flip Emitter script (v2.2):

What scripts do you have on the level? If you have Keyz.crpl on it, that's the problem.

pretty sure i deleted that, but i may have failed to recompile, this is probably the reason, i was tired when completing that one

[mckinnal]

i took out all the creep and even the flip-emiters, but the level still wont end, did i miss something?

[RrR]

You need to nullify all the flip-emitters and collect all the bertha tech to win.

[mckinnal]

i did but nothing happened

[teknotiss]

i did but nothing happened

so you played and got to the end, killed all enemy units and collected the tech?
and then when nothing happened you quit and there was no scoreboard?

sorry dude, just need more data!

[mckinnal]

yes, i took out all the creeper, nulified all the emiters and collected all the tech. and yes, i quit and there as no scoreboard
