Author Topic: Event Gun  (Read 1410 times)

So I was thinking: A gun that puts a copied event onto a brick, that way we don't have to constantly go through the process with the wrench.  Or even better an event fill gun that puts the copied event onto all adjacent bricks of the same color.  This would be good for explosion-proofing walls, or for making a river of lava, or something along those lines.

Can't you just use the copy button when you go into the events thing? You go into events>then there is a copy button at the top right i think and you check mark it and it should copy.

We need a fill wrench. but admin only so no one spams lights or emitters

Or make some options admin-only?

That's what he meant by "process with the wrench." It's too tedious when you're copying events to LOTS of bricks.

Good idea


Duplicating is fine if youre an admin, but if youre a regular player in the server, you have to wait 30 seconds between every duplicate, even more tedious than the "event process"

I was gonna suggest that.
The fill wrench should effect every brick snapped to that brick.
I'd also like a wrenchGun so I can easily apply lights.

Oh, I had started on this but never finished. My computer had crashed, I lost the files, and never had gotten around to remaking it. I could start it over though, shouldn't take all that long since I know what I'm doing now.

It worked by loading events from .txt files onto bricks.

For example, it turns this .txt file:
Code: [Select]
[EVENT_FILE]
[NEW_EVENT]
0
Enabled
onActivate
Self
disappear
3

[NEW_EVENT]
30
Disabled
onPlayerTouch
Player
Kill

Into these events:
Code: [Select]
(Delay 0)  (Enabled)  onActivate    -> Self   -> disappear (3 seconds)
(Delay 30) (Disabled) onPlayerTouch -> Player -> Kill

It's client-sided, too, so you can use it anywhere.
I had originally made it for my own use, so I could copy and paste parts of the text file and move them around to more easily make large event builds, but if enough people wanted it I don't see why I couldn't release it.

if this was released i would defintely download, this would save so much time. and you could make it admin only or for trust only, you dont want some noob on a server asolutely filling a full building with things like: On Activat-Self-Spawn Explosion-etc...

How about, instead of custom commands inside a text file...make a gun that applies any copied settings/events, like any box that you had copied, would be applied to the brick that was "shot" and to possibly work with events as well.
