 How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? I'm trying to make a flare, and to create the effect of a lit flare, I need to create a gib which a emits glows.
How would the scripting go? So far, I've made some which crash the game, so I'm asking for help.
Thanks!

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Just have it gib AEmitters which emit glowy particles. You'll need this line in your MOPixel Code: ScreenEffect = ContentFile
FilePath = [your rte].rte/[imagename].bmp
EffectStartStrength = 0.5
EffectStartTime = 0
EffectStopStrength = 0 Give the AEmitters a LifeTime so that they dissipate after awhile.

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Ok, tried the code, but I get an error in another part: Code: AddGib = Gib
GibParticle = AEmitter
CopyOf = Jetpack Nozzle
PresetName = FlareGib
SpriteFile = ContentFile
FilePath = NewWorldIndustries.rte/Devices/Flare.bmp
AddEmission = Emission
EmittedParticle = MOPixel
PresetName = Light Thingy
Mass = 0.01
HitsMOs = 0
GlobalAccScalar = -0.3
GetsHitByMOs = 0
ScreenEffect = ContentFile
FilePath = NewWorldIndustries.rte/Devices/YellowSmall.bmp
EffectStartStrength = 0.5
EffectStartTime = 0
EffectStopStrength = 0
Color = Color
R = 255
G = 0
B = 255
Atom = Atom
Material = Material
CopyOf = Air
TrailColor = Color
R = 255
G = 0
B = 255
TrailLength = 3
ParticlesPerMinute = 180
BurstSize = 1
[color=#FF0000]Spread = 3[/color]
MaxVelocity = 5
MinVelocity = 1
PushesEmitter = 0 If I take the Spread = 3, it says the error goes to the next line, to the MaxVelocity = 5, and if I take that one, it goes to the next, and so on. I remember I had that problem once, but it was with something else, and I solved it defining the particle as a MOPixel. In this case, it's defined and all. What is the problem?

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Try defining it separately, also i'd like to know the exact error.

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Like just making it it's own block of text instead of integrating it.

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Maybe I'm being an ass for asking you this much but where can I get a good example of an AEmitter? I checked the rocket launcher's rocket AEmitters but it's kinda strange.

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? ¬¬ I made one, but it crashes the game. It says the error is at the AddEmission = Emission line. Code: AddGib = Gib
GibParticle = AEmitter
PresetName = FlaryThingo
Mass = 0.0001
HitsMOs = 0
GetsHitByMOs = 0
SpriteFile = ContentFile
FilePath = NewWorldIndustries.rte/Devices/Flare.bmp
FrameCount = 1
SpriteOffset = Vector
X = 0
Y = 0
AtomGroup = AtomGroup
AutoGenerate = 1
Material = Material
CopyOf = Military Stuff
Resolution = 2
Depth = 5
AddEmission = Emission
EmittedParticle = MOPixel
PresetName = Light Thingy
Mass = 0.01
HitsMOs = 0
GlobalAccScalar = -0.3
GetsHitByMOs = 0
ScreenEffect = ContentFile
FilePath = NewWorldIndustries.rte/Devices/YellowSmall.bmp
EffectStartStrength = 0.5
EffectStartTime = 0
EffectStopStrength = 0
Color = Color
R = 255
G = 0
B = 255
Atom = Atom
Material = Material
CopyOf = Air
TrailColor = Color
R = 255
G = 0
B = 255
TrailLength = 3
ParticlesPerMinute = 180
BurstSize = 1
Spread = 3
MaxVelocity = 5
MinVelocity = 1
PushesEmitter = 0 So, this is the AEmitter I made, but it doesn't work.

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Duuuuuuuude I did it!
I used as a template the disruptor grenade, and it worked!

Re: How do I make an AEmitter gib that emit particles? Hey, uhm, I want to extend the time that the gib emits particles. When I throw the flare into the sky, it emits until it hits the ground. If I throw it in an angle that will make it touch the ground before, well, it emits less.
How can I change that?
I already set LifeTime = 30000 to the gib and to the AEmitter that I defined before.
EDIT: It doesn't matter, got used to it.
