Time for action – Setting up a scenario

Before we start debugging, we need something that's broken that we can use to test our skills. The first thing we need to do is get our own PlayerController class working.

1. Remembering that our PlayerController class is specified in the GameInfo, that is where we need to start. Let's add a new file to our Development\Src\BrokenGame\Classes folder called BrokenGame.uc.

2. Write the following code into BrokenGame.uc:

   class BrokenGame extends UTDeathmatch;
   
   defaultproperties
   {
       PlayerControllerClass=class'BrokenGame.BrokenPlayerController'
       bDelayedStart=false
       bUseClassicHUD=true
   }

3. Now we need to create the BrokenPlayerController class. Start by creating a new file in Development\Src\BrokenGame\Classes called BrokenPlayerController.uc.

4. Write the following code in BrokenPlayerController.uc:

   class BrokenPlayerController extends UTPlayerController;
   
   defaultproperties
   {
   }

5. Now we're going to change BrokenActor a bit. We'll borrow some code from the AwesomeEnemy...
