THE HUNTED


-The Hunted uses a charple skin, so that he better blends in wth the shadows, but also sticks out when in the light.

-Carries a machete, a submachine gun, and a pistol.

-No respawns! If you die, you die.

-The Hunted will usually be alone. However, spawn ratios equal 1 Hunted for every 4 Rent-a-cops

-Every additional rent-a-cop after 3 adds a Suit Battery to the Hunted's health. At full Suit, the Hunted(s) gain an extra 15 HP per cop.

---

THE RENT-A-COPS


-The rent-a-cops carry a pistol, a primary weapon, SLAMS, and flares. Their skin is the metrocop.

-There are three types of rent-a-cops. Pilots, Drivers, and Flatfoots. Drivers get to use a police car, Pilots get to to fly a Little Bird ah-6, and Flatfoots just walk. the first Cop is a flatfoot, the second, a driver, the third, a pilot. After the first pilot, there can be no more. however, drivers and flatfoots continue to alternate until there are three drivers, at which point, all further spawned cops are only flatfoots.



-The rent-a-cops spawn together, in a wide open, low-light area.

-When killed, a rent-a-cop must wait a number of minutes equal to how many Cops there currently are. (one minute for each cop after the first.)

-After the 6th rent-a-cop has joined, cops can no longer respawn.

-The cop who does the most damage to the Hunted becomes the Hunted the next round.

How To Play

THE HUNTED

The Hunted's goal is to kill every member of the rent-a-cop team at once. If this occurs, he, or his team wins. The Hunted should play stealthily, and use a variety of tricks and traps to kill as many cops, as quickly, and quietly, as possible. Additonally, Addons that give the ablity to use parkour should be used for the Hunted, so that the gameplay is a bit more balanced. Grymod's 'invisibilty, and Strength' can be used for the Hunted as well, but only he may use these.

Playing as the Hunted is simple, and has only one special rule, as he is free to do just about anything he wants, adherring to the gamemode.

The Hunted may only heal if he has not seen a cop for 2 minutes! Even then, it can only be a HEALTH VIAL, as apposed to the 25 HP HEALTH PACK


THE RENT-A-COPS

The Rent-a-cops must work together to find, and kill, the Hunted. With their assortment of aircraft, caes, and soldiers, it would seem an easy task. However, the Hunted is tricky subject to follow! As such, the cops have some special rules the must adhere to.

As a cop, you may not camp. You are a hunter! You don't need no camping! Players who camp should be kicked, or TKd.

Unless another cop breaks the rules, no TKing! Players who TK forfeit their next 3 Hunted rounds. The Hunted mantle is passed on to whoever the Hunted chooses in this case (except himself).


Cops who lose who their vehicles may only respawn them at the beginning of a new round.

Dead cops may not tell living cops where the Hunted is. Cops who do this forfeit their next Hunted round.

Cops may not heal!

Cops may place up to three combine turrets on the map at once. These turrets must be able to be knocked over, and must be able to shoot both the Hunted, and the cops.

This can be houseruled by players, however, it is recommended that the Cops not be allowed to use: The Spas 12, USAS, any weapons from the 'Machine Guns' category, any weapons from the 'specialties' category, MP7, MP9, sniper rifles, the Striker 12, the Double Barrled shotgun, and the m4a1 ACOG.

Creating a True Gamemode

!This is for people who are experienced in making custom gamemodes for Gmod!


If you would like to make a custom gamemode out of this, go right ahead! All I ask is that you give credit to myself for the idea/rules.

Special Things You Should Probably Add

-Auto-slay for rulebreakers.

-Equipment selection screen for each new round, specialized for the Hunted and Cops.

-Sniper rifles! However, these sniper rifles would be edited like the 'Combine Sniper SWEP', so that a laser always appears when the sniper scopes in. Snipers can also only be fired while scoped in.

-Special higher jump/parkour mod for the Hunted.

-Light detecor for the hunted. As he gets into darker areas, it allows him to become invisible, brighter, and he becomes more visible. This would allow for custom Playermodels.

-Custom mapping entities for helicopter and car spawning, among other things.
(tth_mapnamehere)

-Usability in non-tth maps.

-Custom sweps?

@Frosty

I have a mini hamachi server for testing it in sandbox. If you'd like to try it, I still need to set up a collection for the addons.

This guide is already doing pretty well, surprisingly enough! Last night alone it doubled in views and favs. :D So we'll see if someone codes it proper.
