Adding Velocity To a Vehicle (SetVelocity)

[Tezuni]

Code: [Select]

function gsfseacopterVehicle::OnTrigger(%this, %obj, %triggerNum, %val)
{
   if(%val){
      if(%triggerNum == 2){
      %pmount = %client.player.getObjectMount();
      %pmount.setVelocity("0 0 20");
 }
   }
}The GSF sea copter has been broken for a while now, well the SetVelocity part for vertical ascent anyways.
Can anyone fix it?

Simple fix.

Replace
%pmount.setVelocity("0 0 20");
with

Code: [Select]

%vel = %pmount.getVelocity();
if(getWord(%vel,2) < 20)
%pmount.setVelocity(vectorAdd(%vel,"0 0 3");

If that's the problem you're talking about anyways.

I never used this add-on, so I'm not sure what exactly is wrong.

The problem is it wasn't adding any velocity with the space bar pressed anymore.  Thanks, I'll try this.

Throw another bracket before that semicolon. My mistake.

[Tezuni]

Code: [Select]

function gsfseacopterVehicle::OnTrigger(%this, %obj, %triggerNum, %val)

{

   if(%val)

   {

      if(%triggerNum == 2)

      {

      %pmount = %client.player.getObjectMount();

      %vel = %pmount.getVelocity();

^if(getWord(%vel,2) < 30)

^%pmount.setVelocity(vectorAdd(%vel,"0 0 3")}##;##



^  }

   }

}

[Chrono]

Wrong kind.

[Tezuni]

Wrong kind.

Could you post the fixed code?

[Chrono]

%vel = %pmount.getVelocity();
if(getWord(%vel,2) < 20)
   %pmount.setVelocity(vectorAdd(%vel,"0 0 3"));

[Tezuni]

%vel = %pmount.getVelocity();
if(getWord(%vel,2) < 20)
   %pmount.setVelocity(vectorAdd(%vel,"0 0 3"));

Oh thanks.  () are parentheses btw.  and } are brackets.

Add-Ons/vehicle_GSF_SeaCopter/vehicle_gsf_seacopter.cs (228): Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'getObjectMount'
BackTrace: ->gsfseacopterVehicle::onTriggerI received this error when I tried using the space bar to climb vertically.  I guess it's still broke....Hmmm.
Anyone have anymore ideas?

"Fixed" Code: (Still won't climb vertically but it loads the copter now)

Code: [Select]

function gsfseacopterVehicle::OnTrigger(%this, %obj, %triggerNum, %val)
{
   if(%val)
   {
      if(%triggerNum == 2)
      {
      %pmount = %client.player.getObjectMount();
      %vel = %pmount.getVelocity();
         if(getWord(%vel,2) < 30)
%pmount.setVelocity(vectorAdd(%vel,"0 0 3"));

      }
   }
}

I just looked at that first code again...

I'm wondering where the hell %client is comming from.

Probably the object the client is mounted to? (The Copter)

Probably the object the client is mounted to? (The Copter)

I don't see where %client is defined.

Code: [Select]

function gsfseacopterVehicle::OnTrigger(%this, %obj, %triggerNum, %val)
{
   if(%val){
      if(%triggerNum == 2){

Do you see %client being defined anywhere?
