Implementing Custom Dynamic Objectives on Your No One Survived Server

Elevate gameplay by integrating custom dynamic objectives that update in real time based on in-game events, adding depth and variability to your No One Survived server.

📌 Prerequisites

• A No One Survived server purchased at VolticHost.com

• Access to VolticHost Game Panel

• A basic text editor (e.g., Notepad, VS Code)

• Familiarity with basic scripting concepts

1️⃣ Writing Your Custom Dynamic Objectives Script

1. Open your preferred text editor.

2. Create a new file and paste the following sample code, which sets a dynamic objective that updates based on the number of surviving players:

   -- dynamic_objectives.lua
   -- This script updates the current objective based on surviving player count.
   
   local currentObjective = "Survive the night"
   
   function updateObjective()
       local survivors = getSurvivorCount() -- returns the number of players still alive
       if survivors < 3 then
           currentObjective = "Defend the safe zone until dawn!"
       else
           currentObjective = "Survive the night"
       end
       broadcastObjective(currentObjective)
       print("Objective updated: " .. currentObjective)
   end
   
   -- Call updateObjective every 60 seconds
   setInterval(updateObjective, 60000)
   
   -- Helper functions (placeholders; actual implementations depend on your server API)
   function getSurvivorCount()
       -- Returns a simulated number for testing purposes
       return math.random(1, 5)
   end
   
   function broadcastObjective(obj)
       -- Broadcast the updated objective to all players
       -- (Implementation depends on your server's messaging system)
       print("Broadcasting Objective: " .. obj)
   end
   

3. Save the file as dynamic_objectives.lua on your computer.
