Chain gun?

Pages: << < (2/7) > >>

Space Guy:

Seems to be kind of a "platform gun" that shoots a really long, really thin platform in a straight line to wherever you hit.

Should be possible, but it'd need a specialized model for the chain and would either create a million laggy static shapes or have about three really stretched links in the chain over a hundred or so studs.

Quick mockup of what I think he wants -


The gun shoots a projectile
If it hits a person, it'll do damage but not much else - perhaps a 'pull' effect
If it hits a wall, it will create a very long 'chain' between where you fired it
You can walk on this chain, so can other people
If anybody shoots the chain, it breaks and falls apart

deathrider:

just add damage to the hookshot

Space Guy:

You can't walk on the hookshot line.

rkynick:

Make a shape and scale it?

It would be hard to make it look chain-y but it's probably the best solution.

Space Guy:

Yes, that's what I was thinking.

The only problem is that I don't know how to turn a vector (from you to the point) into a rotation... (for a static shape)
