Brick Spawn Script

[Furling²]

I tried make it work, it does not work.

Server.cs

Code: [Select]

datablock fxDTSBrickData (brick4xOctagontSpawnData){
   brickFile = "Add-Ons/Brick_Revloution_Spawn/4xOctagonSpawn.blb";

   specialBrickType = "Brick Spawn";

   orientationFix = 1;

   canCover = false;

   category = "Special";
   subCategory = "Revloution Spawn";
   uiName = "4 x Octagon";
   iconName = "Add-Ons/Brick_Revloution_Spawn/4xOctagon";

   indestructable = true;
};How this player will get work spawn?

So you want it so people spawn on the brick?

If so, the reason is that you need to use the data from the default spawn brick.  Look at the first lines and compare. Hopefully this helps.

Code: [Select]

datablock fxDTSBrickData (brick4xOctagontSpawnData : brickSpawnPointData)
{
   brickFile = "Add-Ons/Brick_Revloution_Spawn/4xOctagonSpawn.blb";

   specialBrickType = "Brick Spawn";

   orientationFix = 1;

   canCover = false;

   category = "Special";
   subCategory = "Revloution Spawn";
   uiName = "4 x Octagon";
   iconName = "Add-Ons/Brick_Revloution_Spawn/4xOctagon";

   indestructable = true;
};

Nope, it does not work.

Where you in a minigame?

[Furling²]

where you get this brickSpawnPointData? I been search for this a script. Can you tell me, so I can find it and look at it.

brickSpawnPointData is the default spawn brick. You can't access it's code file because it's in a .dso. You can however put brickSpawnPointData.dump(); or brickSpawnPointData.save("File path"); after you've started a server, if you want to find out everything about the brick. The .blb file for the brick is also in base/data/bricks/special/spawnPoint.blb

Doing what Scriode said would make your datablock inherit those properties. You don't have to do it manually. You can also define specific changes to that datablock in yours.

Yes, I did and tested, they are not working. I can PM to you want to test it on my mod or not?

EDIT: Sent to you

Scriode almost had it, but he overwrote some necessary stuff. Try this:

Code: [Select]

datablock fxDtsBrickData (brick4xOctagonSpawnData : brickSpawnPointData)
{
   brickFile = "./4xOctagonSpawn.blb";

   category = "Your Category";
   subCategory = "your sub-category..";
   uiName = "4 x Octagon";
   iconName = "./4xOctagon";
};

};

Nope, does not work. then I have going PM to you.

...Guys, spawnpoints are just bricks. The only thing that makes them spawn players is the code in their onPlant and onLoadPlant functions. You're going to have to call that if you want new spawnpoint bricks to work robustly.

Code: [Select]

function brickNewSpawnData::onPlant(%data, %brick)
{
    brickSpawnpointData::onPlant(%data, %brick);
}

function brickNewSpawnData::onLoadPlant(%data, %brick)
{
    brickSpawnpointData::onLoadPlant(%data, %brick);
}

I always thought that they were defined by the specialBrickType field being set in the datablock.

I have add these lines something like this?

Code: [Select]

datablock fxDTSBrickData (brick4xOctagonSpawnData : brickSpawnPointData)
{
   brickFile = "Add-Ons/Brick_Revloution_Spawn/4xOctagonSpawn.blb";

   indestructable = true;

{
    brickSpawnpointData::onPlant(%data, %brick);
}

function brick4xOctagonSpawnData::onLoadPlant(%data, %brick)
{
    brickSpawnpointData::onLoadPlant(%data, %brick);
}I am correct or wrong?

That should work. Try it.
