Battlefield 6 Portal Complete Guide #2 - Writing Scripts Using the Script Editor - Game Mode Scoring

Описание: Learn how to create your own Domination mode in this complete guide to building a mode in Battlefield 6 Portal.

In part two of this series we use the Script Editor to write our first Portal script to create a scoring system and an initial scoreboard and lay the groundwork for the final two parts. We will cover good practice for writing scripts in the script editor and write our first script to generate the scoring system for our Domination game mode.

This video should be perfect for new creators just starting out with Battlefield Portal, but will also be useful for those making the shift from the original Portal to the new tools, and even those who have used Portal for a little time may find new things in here they didnt know before!

This video does include a large amount of coding. Those of you with no coding experience shouldn't worry though. I'll guide you through generating the script and give you clear examples as we go.

When I was first learning to program, (way back in the 1980's), the first programs I wrote were copied from magazines....I, for beginners, this approach mimics my early experience of learning to progeam.

And of course for experienced progreammers - this initial set of examples will get you started on understanding how the scripting system works.

This is part 2 of 4.
