Author Topic: A burning fireball of doom...  (Read 2142 times)

I was wondering if you talented coders could whip up a decent sun emitter for use in maps as a permanent feature (IE. not spawned on a brick).

Should be massive, not laggy and look....fiery?

Kudos if you can a get a solar flare go off occasionally.

Space map?  I could do it, but I need to know where the sun is and where the planet earth is.  I sound dumb  :cookieMonster:

isn't ther a sun Add-On?

Hmm, i belive you'd need multiple emmiters for a sun. One for the corona, another for the fire and another for the flares.

I'll try to make something like this, I'm planning on making it a chain of explosions creating fiery particles at a specific radius from the center point, having debris points appear on the "edge" of the radius spewing out fire particles to make solar flares, then a giant transparent yellow ring particle just a tad wider than the radius will appear and disappear simultaneously at set intervals creating a corona.

The main explosion will chain itself as a sub-explosion and simply keep repeating itself until the game is over.

Also the Flare Debris Emitter will spew out particles at a set speed, and those particles will be drawn back into the sun by a negative acceleration  :cookieMonster:

Edit: also the use of explosions will enable the creation of Light Emission, I could give the light radius a very wide range as to "bask" everything in it.

Sounds sweet.

Debris don't work and Sub-explosions don't work.

back to the drawing board.


Still need this

I'm working on it, I've been busy these days though.

Can't promise flares but I can promise a giant cool looking fireball, very bright, very fiery  :cookieMonster:

He's doing you a favour, the least you could do is be polite in return.

I wasn't being rude, i thought it would be better than saying *bump* which I find rather annoying.

Thanks for he info king ephi.

Any time you revolting peasant.

:o so reactor is a peasent now? :o

I am glad to say the basic emitter is done.



It looks like this giant evil fireball that wants naught but the consumption of your very soul.

That looks pretty toasty.
