Modification Help / Re: paritcleEmitterData - Never mind, I'll find some sort of a workaround.
« on: June 19, 2016, 02:32:47 AM »projectile explosion can emit a water splash emitter. its how default rain is handled anyways and nobody noticesI know that, I just need to figure out how to make the water drop itself non-laggy. Two at a time will drop like 30fps idk why

« on: June 19, 2016, 01:23:35 AM »try making the projectile itself a raindrop, or emit an image that lasts for 10 ms thats a raindrop/a bunch of raindropsThe second suggestion is very clever, however I don't really think it'd look good without the splash emitter upon ground hit.. I mean, it wouldn't look 3-Dimensional with two dimensional splashes, yaknow?

« on: June 18, 2016, 11:20:55 PM »To have less particles emitted, you need to add ejectionPeriodMS = 500; above periodVarianceMS in the emitter data, then you can raise the value if too many particles are still being emittedI've tried that, it still lags with that and setting the values too high to make less lag always makes the emitter appear too late.

So I'm having an issue creating a simple raindrop projectile, due to this particle issue here. What's going on here is I'm trying to have the projectileemitter not spawn multiple instances of the image, and instead just have one and stick with it as it lags since the image has alpha and Blockland's alpha blending is so slow it's ridiculous.
Basically I just need to know how to make this code ONLY spawn ONE instance of the image for the projectile to use all the way through. This is being used as the particleEmitter of the projectile:
Thanks :)

Glad to see you got it published. I like the new landmine as well.

Add-Ons / Re: FireMod - UPDATES (Bugfixes)
« on: June 18, 2016, 02:18:39 PM »I'd suggest either using Support_Updater or Blockland Glass for automatic updates, dealing with people stuck on older versions of add-ons is just annoying and unnecessary.
Alright, so I've checked Blockland Glass' new website, and the Add-On won't pop up for my authentication, so I can't get it to work. And I have tried installing the latest version as well.
I can't fully understand how to use Support_Updater, and it seems you need to host it on your own website? I don't feel like messing with that, I'll just get it going on Blockland Glass whenever they fix the authentication issues. Yes, I did check Greek's manual, I read through it, and yeah no.

Nice. Your Add-Ons should be put into the default game, they're pretty much necessities at this point.

People tend to not appreciate rather simple/small codes such as this. It's a great learning project, though. If you're just starting to learn to code, keep making things and make your codes more and more complex as you go, and you'll get there. Anyway, I actually find this a little interesting and am tempted to get it just so I can see what different servers look like with it on.

« on: June 15, 2016, 08:45:24 PM »Uhm... Well that's a little awkward... Looks like one of my old programs is actually inside the addon zip.
How can I tell it's mine? Well, I made a super basic line counter program a long time ago... I still have the project files for it. It also has my old documents directory in the exe file:
I don't even remember distributing it, so that's a little weird that it appeared in here.
Yeah, sorry about that, I forgot it was in there. I removed it, I got it from Port.
