Author Topic: Limited water time Playertype/Mod  (Read 2178 times)

I'm requesting a playertype that can only be in water for a certain amount of time. I do not mean underwater, we have the oxygen mod for that. I'm talking about swimming on top. Basically, after x amount of seconds, the player either dies or begins to lose health. Please make sure the player cannot refill the time left too quickly by jumping out of the water.

EDIT: If you are developing this, please notify me. I would like to know if my request is being attempted or not.

MORE EDIT: I'm asking that someone at least attempt this soon, I cannot progress in my current project until I know some things about the final version of this.

ANOTHER EDIT: SlickSilver has been kind enough to give me a (possibly temporary) fix, and if you decide to develop this mod/player type, please make the range 200 studs if at all possible, so it will be similar to the mod I have been given. Screw that, I can change the distance it reaches.

My comment is that is kinda strange... but i just have 1 question... Why?

I am building an island RPG, and I need to make it so people cannot just swim to other islands. I'd rather not use invisible walls, because that would be A LOT of bricks.

Teleporter event?

That would follow the same principles as invisible walls. I would still need to set up bricks that would teleport people back to the island.

As long as i know, you can set a range like a really invisible wall with 1 brick and good eventing skills. Then you can make teleporters.

I would like to know how to do that if it would solve my problem. I'm going to assume it involves zones?

I think it involves how long you want it on X,Y and Z ranges, with that you only need to put 4 bricks around each island.

I would like to attempt it, but I don't know how to script player types.
Also, are you using water bricks or actual map water?

Cool, I just made some buoys to show where the current mod's limits are.

Map water.

Map water.
You know, its easier to ask for a huge water brick and just put a teleport on it.

Yeah, except that, I dunno, THAT ISNT WHAT HE WANTS

This is a good idea, since people can't swim forever, unless they're Superman.
