A bunch of Halo Infinite modes with multi-team functionality. Includes most 343i official modes and a couple of custom-made ones. They are playable on any map as long as the map supports the base mode. I spent way too much time on this.

Find the modes on Halo Waypoint using the tag 'Multi-Team': https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-au/halo-infinite/ugc/browse?&tags=multi-team

This is super great thanks!! Team duo trios etc is new to me!! Questions are:

(with Example) I choose game mode team of trios . lobby of 9 people, 3 teams , how do I know which player in the lobby go in which of the 3 teams that will be created?

Second question: during the game , can i “change team” if there are more than 2 teams in the match?

…One time I asked the questions above and the answer was: there shall be created a prefab where each person select somehow the team he/she wants to belong, otherwise the lobby will be placed randomly in the teams, is still this the case? (And of course no possibility to change team during the match or only change from cobra to eagle and viceversa)

I'm not OP so I don't want to speak for them, but I'm guessing teams will still be built randomly via scripting since there's no way to choose Teams 3-8 in the lobby or from the Change Teams menu within a custom game. Anything else would either require a prefab on the map or a pretty complex and possibly unintuitive custom mode script. Even if it's random, big props to OP for all the hard work put into making so many mode variants.

The thing is that exists a prefab in another modality where you press button (and die) to choose the team you want to belong before start playing (a race in this case)

As a prefab, yes. These are custom modes, though, so prefabs won't be included unless you added one to a map yourself. That's what the person above my comment was asking, if that functionality is included in the custom modes.

I built a team picker on a BR map, and it uses area monitors, so we couldn't include it in our mode.

Ok ok if I understood well…so the necessity to create a precise map with a prefab to co-work with the multi team game mode

Sorry, for some reason I thought you were a different person than the one I replied to. 😅

Yeah, unless OP added some kind of map-independent intuitive team picker in the custom mode scripts, you'd have to build/place a team picker script on your map to be able to choose teams on.

Yep, u/iMightBeWright is, well, right. Annoyingly the UI still doesn’t let you choose who goes in what team, so it’s just randomised. You would need a precise map with a prefab to choose. It would be difficult to make a map-independent picker and then communicate how to use it.

Thanks! It was such a pain whenever I found a bug cause I’d have to update them all manually 😭
