Description

The Game Flow Template stamp contains the logic setup of a basic game flow through “Pregame”, “Game”, and “Postgame” states.

What The Stamp Does

The stamp handles the transition between game states, with each state containing the typical setup used for that state, featuring the Pregame Screen, Game Timer, and Postgame Screen. There are timer length variables that can be adjusted and a spawn point that can be placed anywhere in the ARC.

Where to find it

Stamps > Public Stamps > Game Flow

Rules of output

Pregame State

The “Pregame” state allows time for players to join before the game starts. In this stamp, players are not allowed to move or fire their weapons while in the Pregame state. The game flow enters the “Pregame” state immediately when the ARC is loaded. In this state, players will see the Pregame Screen, which allows them to ready up while they wait for players to join. The Pregame screen is shown for a duration, which can be edited using the Pregame Timer Duration variable. Once all players in the game ready up or the Pregame timer expires, then the game state transitions to the “Game” state, the pregame screen disappears, and players can now move and fire their weapons.

Game State

The “Game” state is where the actual gameplay occurs. In this stamp, players have no restrictions on their actions while the “Game” state is active. A game timer is started when we first transition to this state which can be edited using the Game Timer Duration variable. The main timer is shown at the top of the screen, and once complete, transitions to the “Postgame” state.

Postgame State

The “Postgame” state is where players vote for the next ARC they want to play. When transitioning to this state, the Postgame screen is shown for a duration which can be edited using the Postgame Timer Duration variable. The Postgame screen allows players to vote which ARC will be played next. The votes of all players in the game will be considered when deciding which ARC to play next. Once all players have voted or the postgame timer runs out, all players travel to the selected ARC.
