Modification Help / Re: horse model chage = crash

« on: June 06, 2007, 11:37:28 AM »

Change it back to the horseBrickImage thing and also try the animations method. Maybe go download Bleh's boats from RTB and modify them, they are quite crashprone, though.

If the problem is with the driver only being able to trigger their own weapons rather than the vehicle, why not just have them firing all the time if someone is mounted?

For a static turret, maybe make the turning part into the "Wheels" of the vehicle so it faces where driver is if that is possible.

The Tutorial looks unfinished, anyway, Badspot will probably be adding more to do with the wrench and printer, maybe stuff to do with Macros. I'd like it if it had a way to teach people to use T to talk - when I first started BL0002 I didn't know what key to use...!

Does anyone know how I could solve this / why Badspot has disabled this? It would be very helpful, as I need it to make my alternate PlayGUI work. (Needed for RPG mod, also having the HP bar visible in other servers)

To make a sword longer, make a new model or try (unsure) adding the code

Code: [Select]

scale = "1 1 1.3

to the swordImage datablock. For faster bows, do you mean fast reload or fast arrows?

Try adding blank animations for things like shiftAway, run, etc.

Also, where is boatBrickImage defined? (brickImage = boatBrickImage;)

Doesn't joining another server while in a game instantly crash you? I don't think the Join button autodisconnects...

There's %client.netname and %client.lanname too, I think. %client.name is whichever one they are currently using. You could also store files by BL_ID.

Modification Help / Re: Getting trandform Clientside?

« on: June 05, 2007, 10:53:46 AM »

echo(ServerConnection.getControlOb ject().getTransform());

I think it works, but not tested and may not work as most of the clientside "find your status" commands (damage level, etc) have been removed.

Modification Help / getDamagePercent()

« on: June 04, 2007, 12:22:49 PM »

In an HP display mod I have, it uses "1 - ServerConnection.getControlOb ject().getDamagePercent();" to set the value of a health bar from 0 - 1. Since 1.03 arrived, this has stopped working, always returning "2" (1 - (-1)) - but the custom energy bar using "ServerConnection.getControlOb ject().getEnergyPercent();" continues to work fine. Why has this functionality of getting your own damage level been removed?

It may be something further up in the code which is causing the problem. Whole/more of the script, please?

Nearly, you missed a } though:

Code: [Select]

function blah(%client){
 if(%client.isSuperAdmin)
 {
  //Super
 }
 else if(%client.isAdmin)
 {
  //Admin
 }
 else
 {
  //None
 }
}

Also, for certain uses the switch and switch$ statements exist:

Code: [Select]

function ChooseClass(%client)
{
 %classNum = getRandom(0,3);
 switch(%classNum)
 {
  case 0:
   return "Warrior";
  case 1:
   %client.player.tool[0] = bowItem;
   messageclient(%client,'msgItemPickup',"",0,nametoID("bowItem"));
   return "Archer";
  case 2:
   messageclient(%client,"","\c5You are now a White Mage! Go to the Rune Shop and buy magical Runes.");
   return "White Mage";
  default:
   echo("It's not any of the ones above, return the default:");
   return "Trader";
 }
}

switch$ functions in the same way, except it checks for strings:

Code: [Select]

function servercmdLoadType(%client,%filename)
{
 if(!%client.isSuperAdmin){return;}
 if(%filename $= ""){messageclient(%client,"","\c0ERROR: \c3No filename given.");return;}
 messageclient(%client,"","\c5Loading bot type from file \c3Add-Ons/Client/" @ %filename @ ".bottype\c5...");
 $BotSettings[%filename]=0;
 %file=new fileObject();
 %file.openForRead("Add-Ons/Client/" @ %filename @ ".bottype");
 while(!%file.isEOF())
 {
 	%line=%file.readLine();
	 switch$(firstWord(%line))
	 {
		case "DECAL":
			$BotDecal[%filename] = restWords(%line);
		case "FACE":
			$BotFace[%filename] = restWords(%line);
		case "DATA":
			$BotData[%filename] = restWords(%line);
		case "NAME":
			$BotName[%filename] = restWords(%line);
		default: //Setting appearance
			$BotAppear[%filename,$BotSettings[%filename]++] = firstWord(%line);
			$BotColor[%filename,$BotSettings[%filename]] = restWords(%line);
	 }
 }
 %file.close();
 %file.delete();
 messageclient(%client,"","\c5Finished loading. Bot type added: \c3" @ %filename);
}

base/data/Interiors/gh2/Mirror/mirror01.dif

Spawning that mirror with F11 makes a functioning, lowlag mirror reflecting everything (FX, particles, outside) except you, while in 1st person.

You might not actually have this file, hard to tell in all the other game read:AOT stuff I've ported.

If it was like the Age of Time one, where anything above half caps is counted as "All Caps". In Aloshi's, someone could say "A REALLY LONG YELLING SENTENCE caps prevent" and get no message.

Doesn't /warp do the same thing, except allow you to go as far as you want?
