Danger Zone (internally: survival) is a fast-paced battle royale game mode built on Template:Game name's tactical gameplay where players use their wits, skill, and resources to fight to the finish. Featuring solo or team play.
To launch a map in the Danger Zone game mode, invoke the commands game_type 6; game_mode 0; map <mapname> or shorter: map <mapname> survival. See CS:GO Game Modes.
Note:Maps must be designed for this game mode (see below). If they are not, one should reckon with game crashes.Note:Valve has released no documentation about this game mode and everything is researched by players.Map Requirements
- The BSP needs the dz_ map prefix.
- See dedicated page of this entity for more information.
Warning:This brush needs to be at least 13440x13440 units big, if not the game will crash upon deploying. Recommended size is 16384x16384.- Warning:The recommended footprint of a Danger Zone map is 20480x20480 units, combined with a trigger_survival_playarea sized 16384x16384.
- The footprint of the map must be made of a solid texture (nodraw or skybox will not work).
- Using other sizes for the map footprint or the trigger_survival_playarea may cause the deployment menu and the tablet radar to become misaligned.}}
- See dedicated page of this entity for more information.
Fundamental Entities
- Point entity to specify location where gas canisters should launch from, usually in the 3d skybox.
- Point entity for setting the name of a map region to display.
- Point entity for spawning drone guns.
- Point entity for spawning a parachute upgrade.
- A trigger volume for hostage rescue zone.
- A trigger volume that disables Tablets when players are inside of it.
- An entity that will fire outputs when events happen during Survival Mode. For example playing ambient_generic after missiles launch.
- Note:This entity is not required for the map to work.
- A trigger volume that defines the bounds of the survival play area.
- Point entity that acts identically to prop_door_rotating, but can be locked and set up with prop_counter and point_dz_weaponspawn to create a door which requires money to unlock.
Note:How to set up this entity correctly is documented on page dedicated to this entity. Quick Link- Point entity that acts as spawn point for various survival entities.
- Note:What kind of entities this creates is specified on its page.
