Author Topic: light sensing bricks  (Read 1061 times)

Quite simply, it detects players' lights.

It could be done by creating a radius the size of the player's light around the brick, and when a player enters this radius, it would check whether or not the player has its light on.

Would be useful for stealth mission-type builds.

mouse over the tallies if you can't tell what number it is.

This sounds like a great idea, and I think it's pretty easy to do.

If this was possible, I think Brick Shadows would be made by now..


This could probably work

I'm not suggesting that it actually detects the light itself, it senses when a player enters a predefined radius, and checks if the player has its light on.

So it's KIND OF sensing the light, but not really.

 this does sound like a great idea it would go great with events (if there is and event for it).

Not even similar at all to what he is asking

Well, he didn't specify if it is an "Onplayertoutch" event, now did he. A concept I did not realize till later. The name "Light sensing bricks" threw me off. *sarcasm*..sorry.*sarcasm*

And whats with you attacking me for no reason all of a sudden?

If it was an actual light sensing brick, the events or whatnot would always go off because of mission lighting.

Wouldn't VCE have some IfPlayerLight thing?

no

but that could be an alternative

And, @Jubel, read the whole post.
It's a simple way of making it seem as though it's detecting the PLAYER'S light only.

i thought it did, if it did, it would be easy enough to event this with what we have already, finding the distance between the brick and player with VCE, then check if the light is on
