Sweet, I can test if you want also?

anyone is welcome testing it !!

it would greatly help me fix bugs and improve things faster ... however wait till 2.4 release ( tomorow or monday ) , theres no point testing the " beta " anymore since most bugs are already fixed and code got further improved.

for now , i only got a few minor bugs left to fix before im happy with it enuff to release it , hopefully there wont be any left for you to find , but i seriously doubt that... Murphy's law quote " if it can go bad , it will go bad ! "

GANG-WAR minigame 2.4
" i made gang-war minigame with hardcore gta player's in mind and i never wanted it to be easy ! reason is quite simple, i wanted user to really feel out-numbered against a full gang and to feel they were lucky to survive such odds ..." HuN .



It took me awhile , but here it is ... hopefully i didnt miss any major bugs .

GWm2.4 changelog & info's :

tested on GTA 4 original ... EFLC & Complete editions are untested .

include:
- GWm2.4 version ( not savable ) + source
- GWm2.4 Beta version ( savable testing ) + source

changelog:
---------------
- SAVABLE WAR PROGRESS:

( GWm2.4 beta version only ! )

this feature was made for my own GW testings , as a way to save GW progress easily without having to figure out how scripts are saved ... 
basicly , my script edit some unused savable stats to store values , however i have no clue if editing thoses stats could mess up anything 
in game in the long run and/or if thoses stats are used by tlad&tbogt for something else ( i tested only on gta 4 original so far )

- this feature will save completed gang-wars 

NOTE : 
- disable GW2.4 script before saving game the usual way

WARNING !!! :
- IF YOU USE BETA VERSION !!! , MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SAVEFILE OR CREATE A NEW ONE just to make sure nothing get messed up in your main savefile.
that said , if stats are anything like they were in SA , editing them as no other effect on game aside total displayed on screen.

---------------

- TERRITORIES UNDER-ATTACK SITUATIONS :

once you completed a war , the territory will be yours to protect ... then it will randomly gets invaded by gang that was owning it .
this is managed by days/hours/minutes of week ( in game time ) and each territory is set to be attacked once a week ( random time ) 
once its " under attack " you will have until 23:59 that day to defend it, else the territory will be "taken over " same if you die during attack .
 

- other wars are disabled during attacks.
- triggering a war will reset ramdom time set for attacks and " death / arrest " may skip time when attack should occur.
- the more territories you own , more attacks you'll get .

NOTE : 
- this feature is meant as a random event that happens once-in-awhile.
- this feature will get further improvements in next GWm version.

---------------

- HITMAN DRIVE-BY'S :

since every gangs wants you dead  ... they will send hitman's to kill you. this is managed by hours/minutes of day ( in game time ) and a hitman packed drive-by car 
will search for you everyday ( random time ) and is reseted at 23:59 or after a war.

- hitman's are disabled if you enter a gang territory
- they can sometimes be stupid and get stuck while on their way to get you ( already working on a fix )
- situations that foward day time , like " death / arrest " may skip time when a drive-by should occur.

NOTE:
- this feature still have some minor issues , however its fun enuff to be included in this release.
- this feature will get further improvements in next GWm version.

---------------

- NEW " WAR WAVES " STRUCTURE :

theres now 9 war waves...

base gang =  7 gang members
wave # 1 = 11 gang members ( drive-by )
wave # 2 =  7 gang members
wave # 3 =  7 gang members
wave # 4 =  7 gang members
wave # 5 =  11 gang members ( drive-by )
wave # 6 =  14 gang members ( 2 spawn points )
wave # 7 =  14 gang members ( 2 spawn points )
wave # 8 =  14 gang members ( 2 spawn points )
wave # 9 =  18 gang members ( 2 spawn points + drive-by)

TOTAL = 110 gang members to kill to complete a war .

---------------

- OPTIMIZING SCRIPT :

i continued to optimize some parts of the script  ... however , like i said before this aint a priority as long script works well in-game .
