Battlezone 1

Can you play multiplayer with cheats like infinite scrap? I mean, my friends and I were playing last night and kept running out of scrap. The games we were playing kept ending in stalemates. We think it would be cool to be able to build bases and attack with large forces not having to worry about joining and rejoining to get more scrap when we mine the level dry.

No, you cannot play with infinite scrap. Why would you want to? Scrap is what decides the game.

yes you can play a game with infinite scrap Why would you want to i would i like large tank battles not worrying about scrap and concentrating on tactics and defense of scrap pools you think you cant win with infinite scrap yes you can you can make a kill limit or choke off supply of scrap by defending scrap pools what map you want is dm vs strat its in the download maps page you will have to add it

Infinite scrap just isn't meant to be in Battlezone. You should be using tactics to manage your scrap so you don't run low. Also, Battlezone 1 doesn't have scrap pools - those are only in BZ2. That was one of the biggest changes from the two games. One has an infinite scrap supply, one doesn't. The one that doesn't, as it turns out, is much more fun.

Actually, there is a way to have a constant scrap supply but it requires making a new strat map.

You can either:

- Spawn Scrap fields

or

- A special Boltmine that drops fields when units are in range

I understand that the game is set up to have a limited number of scrap but that's not how we wanted to play. If there is a map that has something that spawns scrap, can you place the link in the thread this way I can download it. Thanks.

And if there is not a map with this, can you explain how I could do that. I looked on the forum and couldn't find anything about a Boltmine or how to make one spawn scrap like you described, I confuse easily...lol.

That would be modding and I like to keep modding stuff separated from the original.

I'm aware of only one map that re-spawns scrap, but that's not exactly what you want, cause it is DM-strat hybrid. However, you could check it out to see how it functions then maybe make your own respawning-scrap strat map. Anyhow, here it is - http://www.battlezone1.net/maps/DM/dmvsst.zip

DHR Ransom also has two maps with respawning scrap, called "Scrap Attack" and "Scrap Mines".
