Escort

From PHIGHTING! Wiki

Escort is a gamemode in PHIGHTING!.

Overview

The main objective of Escort is to capture a payload along a designated path towards the enemy team's spawn. For the first 20 seconds of the round, you are unable to capture the payload. While being captured, the team will slowly gain points along the path. The point cap maxes out at 50, but after reaching a certain checkpoint, this point cap breaks after 45 seconds and allows the payload to keep moving along the path, maxing out at the 100 points checkpoint. Upon reaching this checkpoint, you instantly win the round, even if the timer hasn't finished. When both teams reach the payload, the payload stops and the team with more Phighters on the payload will go the opposite way and start gaining points after going back to the center, where the payload started. This process will repeat itself until a team is crowned as victorious, having more points then the enemy team.

The Payload

The speed of the payload depends on how many points a team has. It will depend on things like points, position on the path, and whose holding it. The payload changes appearances with the map chosen, and has a white glow around said payload to help people find it easier.

Losing Team

  • The payload will go 3x as fast towards the center if the losing team is holding it while it is on the winning side. This continues until they reach the center of the road.
    • Upon reaching the center of the road, the payloads speed will be put to 2.5x speed, until the losing team reaches its original score.
  • When the losing team is adding to it's score, the payload will only go 2x as fast.

Winning Team

  • The payload will go only 2x the speed if you capture it on the losing side.
    • Upon reaching the center, the payload will go at 1.75x speed until the winning team reaches their current score.
  • If the winning team adds to their score, the payload goes at its original 1x speed again.
