Well apparently it isn't even an infinite loop. The saving of duplications is just really slow. Ill refine it later today

Give me time I'll work it out today. Be useful and send me a console log next time you complain with no support.

Don't know if this would work for you but you can exclude certain objects

Code: [Select]

%raycast = containerRaycast(%eye, VectorAdd(%eye,VectorScale(%ev,50)),%mask,%ignore_this_object);

I highly doubt you can make this nicely in blockland.
Also you can't just check the velocity.
Holding W does not mean I am actually moving forward

Then what do you suggest? At least it will detect that you are holding W if you ARE moving. So that solution is better than nothing.

Angles have nothing to do with movement, so yeah your best bet would be to check velocity

Just to clarify since you are new to scripting, do what Eepos said above. The TorqueScript package is not required to script for Blockland but it correctly highlights the syntax. So you can use any old text editor, but I believe Microsoft word adds some random stuff when you save files

Have you tried .save() on the original spawn point brick? Or trace(1);%client.spawnplayer();trace(0);

Attempting to code your own whole weapon might be a little difficult without any scripting background. The best you could probably do is find-replace the name of previous weapons. Try other simple scripts that dont involve datablocks for a start. Once you get used to it, and learn how things work come back and attempt this. Fixing your previous mistakes with new knowledge you gained is one of the best ways to learn how things work

It is actually pretty difficult. It took me a while to figure out how to do it correctly for the duplicator. It turns out it ended up to be the exact same method the original duplicator used. So your best bet would to look at the duplicator code.

relative velocity i.e. the velocity in relation to a player's forward vector. So it's like setRelativeVelocity event but backwards.

Lets say you wanted to set the forward velocity by 10

Code: [Select]

%player.setVelocity(vectorScale("10 0 0",%player.getForwardVector()));

Now if you want the velocity to be backwards just scale the forward vector by -1

Code: [Select]

%player.setVelocity(vectorScale("10 0 0",vectorScale(%player.getForwardVector(),-1)));

Define relative velocity. And you can put the players camera in spy mode for the player, however, the player will not be able to move.

Well you have to create a datablock for the wav file. Then you reference that datablock in the serverplay3d. Ill write an example just this one time because you are starting and hopefully you will learn. Not always will you get a full example though

Code: [Select]

//Create the actual beep datablock
datablock AudioProfile(beepSound)
{
   filename    = "./Beep.wav";
   description = AudioClosest3d;
   preload = true;
};
//Create /beep
function servercmdbeep(%client)
{
   //Only play if the player is spawned
   if(isObject(%client.player))
      serverplay3d(beepSound,%client.player.getPosition());
}
