https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UeKF9Zpsqs
What is FDD?
It's the abbreviation of Fun Destruction Derby; pretty much self-explanatory gamemode which proposes Fun rather than competitiveness. FDD maps contain all kind of vehicles except for aircrafts and overpowered vehicles as Hunter or Rhino. It also includes a random vehiclechanger placed in the center of the map. Example: [DD]Martin ft. Holzhocker - Random Luck
How to make FDD maps?
This thread will cover all the necessary steps and requirements you should follow in order to have your map pass the map-testing stage.
Requirements:- Make sure there are always enough spawn points. It's a must to place 32 spawnpoints.
- The map should include double, large and wide roads to fit all vehicles.
- Space between track and spawnpoints is required to avoid large vehicles getting stuck.
- Description in meta.xml should include the tag #fun
- Vehiclechanger marker(s) should be located in the center of your map. Placing more than one vehiclechanger is welcomed.
- If you make decorations, make sure players will not be able to camp on them.
- Map must be big enough to have enough space for fights.
- Limited repair or nos pick ups spread all around the map. Do not use them excessively.
- Placing vehiclechange pick ups is not allowed.
- There should not be any random obstacles in the track.
- If your map is close to GTA world, make sure to block the way to it.
Steps:- Download FDD add-on.
- Add it in your map folder.
- Edit the marker(s) coordinates of vehiclechanger in the given script (precisely described in the video).
- Edit your meta.xml and add the following line: <script src="client.lua" type="client"/>
