Combined Obstacles

dantedevil · Oct 16, 2015

I try to create Combined Obstacles like in Cime Buster mod.
I study how works the system with the bigfence, but something is wrong.

The obstacle seem works, but you can destroy with a few hits when the health is 500. How can change that?.

Here all parts:

Code:

nomove          1

And finally, the script (spawner) in obstacle.c

Code:

void spawner(void vName, float fX, float fY, float fZ)
{
	//spawner
	//Damon Vaughn Caskey
	//07/06/2007
	//
	//Spawns entity next to caller.
	//
	//vName: Model name of entity to be spawned in.
	//fX: X location adjustment.
	//fZ: Y location adjustment.
      //fY: Z location adjustment.

	void self = getlocalvar("self"); //Get calling entity.
	void vSpawn; //Spawn object.
	int  vAlias = getentityproperty(self, "name");
	int  iHealth = getentityproperty(self, "health");
	int  iDirection = getentityproperty(self, "direction");

	clearspawnentry(); //Clear current spawn entry.
      setspawnentry("name", vName); //Acquire spawn entity by name.

	if (iDirection == 0){ //Is entity facing left?                  
          fX = -fX; //Reverse X direction to match facing.
	}

      fX = fX + getentityproperty(self, "x"); //Get X location and add adjustment.
      fY = fY + getentityproperty(self, "a"); //Get Y location and add adjustment.
      fZ = fZ + getentityproperty(self, "z"); //Get Z location and add adjustment.
	
	vSpawn = spawn(); //Spawn in entity.

	changeentityproperty(vSpawn, "position", fX, fZ, fY); //Set spawn location.
	changeentityproperty(vSpawn, "parent", self); //Set caller as parent.
	changeentityproperty(vSpawn, "name", vAlias); //Set name.
	changeentityproperty(vSpawn, "health", iHealth); //Set health.
	changeentityproperty(vSpawn, "direction", iDirection); //Set direction.
    
	return vSpawn; //Return spawn.
}

One more thing, I put an item in the fence, but when the fence fall, the item never comes.

spawn FenceW
alias Fence
item bosser
health 50
coords 590 215
at 1900

Remove @ so it becomes this:

Code:

spawn   FenceW
alias   Fence
 @item   bosser
health  50
coords   590 215
at  1900

The obstacle seem works, but you can destroy with a few hits when the health is 500. How can change that?

Well, if your attack power is 200 then that might explain why ;D
Seriously, the combined obstacles could have overlapping bbox which allows entities to hit 2 obstacles in the set at once. That might explain why it's destroyed faster

Sorry for that:

Remove @ so it becomes this:

I remove the @, but still without spawn bosser.

Well, if your attack power is 200 then that might explain why ;D

Then how can make to change the health of the complete Fence?
Simply need put a higer health value in all parts or need modify some of the scripts?

dantedevil · Oct 19, 2015

I try again setting health 10000 in the four parts of the fence, but still broken quickly.
What scripts I must change to set the amount of health higher?

Bloodbane · Oct 20, 2015

I can't reproduce the bug
I've tried having the obstacle to drop bosser and it works (slowmotion is played)
Also setting HP = 500 also works

dantedevil · Oct 20, 2015

Finally can solve this problem.
I make a new level txt from the beginning, then try again and the heath 500 setting in level works ok.
Spawn FenceW
Alias Fence
Health 500
Coords 590 215
At 1900
The only problem is the spawn bosser, still without work. So I just simply use a spawn in the first frame of the fall animation of the fence to solve the bug. But I don't know exactly wath the problem.

What exactly uou mean by not working?

When you break the fence never drop the bosser, thats not work.
