Questions about fxDTSbrick
Crown2:
Hey guys, I have 2 quick questions. First, when you parent onPlant you get the variable '%brick' How do you then, with %brick, make the brick explode with tank shell explosion, and then delete itself? Like, say that I want an event that when you place a brick, it automatically explodes it and delete. How would I do that? Secondly, how do you automatically detect when a brick is hit when any projectile?

{
function projectile::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal)
{
parent::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal);
if(%col.getClassName() $= "fxDtsBrick" && (%col.getDatablock().uiName $= "myBrickName"))
{
messageClient(%obj.client,'',"Oi! You hit my brick!");
}
}
}
activatePackage(onBrickHit);

Not sure if that's exactly the right function.
If that does not work try function projectileData::onCollision.
Fluff-is-back:
Not too good with bricks, but I imagine you could simply do this:
%brick.spawnExplosion(TankShellProjectile, 1, %client);
where %client is the gameConnection of the person who deals the damage, if that makes sense.
then
%brick.killBrick();

%brick.delete(); should work too.
Lugnut:
In this case, unless you want otherwise, you could do %brick.client, which would get your own client. Unless you had self damage on, the planting of the brick would only hurt other people.
