Overview

COLORS is a multiplayer mod for the game of Kingpin. Its team based game play where the idea is to attack the other teams base, capture their flag, then take it back to your base. You must touch your base flag when carrying the enemy flag in order to score - if your flag isn't at your base when you return, you or your team must get it back to gain points and captures.

Joining a Game

When you join a COLORS server you are a spectator. To join a team press number 1 to join the Dragons or number 2 to join Nikki's Boyz. To switch teams when in a game the easiest way is to type into the console Join N (to join Nikki's Boyz) or Join D (to join Dragons).
To go back into spectator mode during a game type SPEC into the console.

The Rules

Pick up the enemy flag, return to base and touch your flag in order to score.
When a player carrying the enemy flag gets back to his base and touches his flag he completes a successful capture. He gets a bonus of 15 points, and everyone on his team gets 10 points.
If you kill an opposing team player who has your flag he drops it, earning yourself 2 points. If you touch your flag, it will teleport back to your base, giving you 1 point as a recovery bonus. This gives base defenders a reward for guarding their flag.

Binds

There are three new binds in the autoexec.cfg file
bind 9 "use harpoon"
The harpoon is very much like the grappling hook and you can switch to it by pushing the number 9.

bind z "curse"
bind x "taunt"
Pushing X or Z allows you to hear one of the 112 male & 43 female available voice samples

You can also bind a key to  recall the message of the day if you want to. Just type :-                          
bind n "showmotd" (where n is any key you select) into the console or add it to your 
autoexec.cfg 


Using the Harpoon

To use the harpoon simply press your mouse attack button and hold it down. Once you release the mouse button the harpoon will retract. To stay in the place you harpooned to, such as dangling from a ceiling, simply switch weapons while you hold the mouse button down. When you switch back to the harpoon it will retract and you will fall to the ground.  

Configuring a Server

To configure a server just update the server.cfg and comp.ini files to your liking.

The default dm flags is 324 (which has bunnyhopping set to disabled, no friendly fire, and 
weapon stay)

set capturelimit is the number of flag captures a team needs to attain before the map is won.

set harpoon_enable to 0 for no haproon unless picked up on a map, or 1 for every player to start with one.

Set set keep_admin_status to 0 to release admin each map change, or to 1 for a player to keep admin over map changes.

Set props to 0 for no props, 1 enabled except rats/fish, or 2 enabled including rats/fish


If the server is empty for a while, or is empty when the map changes, or a player issues the 'resetserver’ admin command, the server vars will be reset to a default set. This default set is what was originally set in the server.cfg file.

To run a server either use the default settings in the server.cfg or change them to your liking then create a kingpin shortcut and add the following
+set game ctf +exec server.cfg +set dedicated 1

MOTD.txt defines the message displayed to players when they connect to the server – 
note that the instructions contained in the MOTD.txt file must be followed for the message to display correctly.

Scoreboard

There are some new features on the scoreboard. When you hit F1 to go to the scoreboard you see your name, ping, score and how many times you have died. Hit F1 again and you see your accuracy and favourite weapon as in Monkey Mod.
Hit F1 again and you see:
Frag: how many frags you have
Steal: how many flags you have stolen from the enemy base
Pickup: how many times you have picked up the flag after someone has dropped it
Hrun: how many times you have made a homerun (which is stealing the enemy flag and 
getting all the way back to your base with it without dying)
Caps shows the number of captures (touching your flag at base while holding the enemy flag)
Total: Hrun and Caps added together.
Resc: how many times you have returned your own flag to base (rescue)
