But what happens if you shoot it at a map that has had thousands of bombs and it lands on a singular pixel?
crash?

If it doesn't hit anything in the scan for pixels, it just wouldn't appear.

I think I can write a script that covers everything but rotation, I have written a pre-emptive 15 line script that covers everything to do with actors (using some lua knowledge and some information that data has given), just copy it a bunch of times change "actor" to all the other classes hopefully.

ButI have no idea how to sort out the rotation.

I would suggest avoiding angles, and just start with a terminator style appearance.

A sphere of destruction and then the appearance.

Don't post in a thread that is over a week or two old unless you have something very important to add to it.
The older the thread, the more important it needs to be.

Second, viewtopic.php?f=73&t=12099
You could make a circle of destruction yourself with this.

Garrys mod (which i happen to love) is FULLY exposed to lua, and it also uses a completely different engine from cortex command, so portals are probably not going to happen with the current game engine. at least fired ones.

Yeah except portals were made and completely real in Garrys mod via Lua great job loving a game. I don't love Gmod that much and I know what's been made using it.

Stop talking about things you don't know anything about please.

Yes yes, GARRYS MOD can do it. A game with like, zillions of lines of code, infinitely complex multiplayer and physics emulation, and generally speaking a considerably well-designed game can do it.

By that logic, CC can do it too. Bravo.

I meant Lua can make portals, not necessarily great one for cortex command, but it can make portals.

Lua can make portals, velocity isn't altered by a change in pos by Lua is it?
The only problem I see is rotation which is hard to do.

If you go into a portal and come out of one facing the same way:
| portal1 facing left | portal2 facing left
then you SHOULD do this:
-> | <- |
but you wont, you will do this:
-> | | ->
and I know a way to reverse the actor velocity (actor.Vel = actor.vel - (actor.Vel*2) ), but I don't know how you get it to do that based on rotation of the portals.

Rob, when you change the Pos of an actor, its velocity is set to 0,0.

I got around that by doing actor.Vel = actor.Vel; I don't know why it worked.

Also, if they are static portals that can't change rotation or position, you could
make custom Lua code for every portal that applies the effects you want including
changing which direction an actor is facing and Changing velocity on the "rotation" of the portals.

actor.Vel.Y = actor.Vel.X

rob? robo (as in robot) or lee I prefer unless that was a spelling mistake

I don't know why it would get reset, but setting it back to the original velocity makes sense.

I have set it so that rotation of the actor is specified by the rotation of the portal (so that your facing away from the portal when you come out of it, not at it)

I think we should work on a portable portal gun together, I have one all set up, I just need for data to allow Lua on weapons

I'm sure you can see why its easy enough to see that as either Rob O Lee, or him mistyping O.

You don't have to criticize people all the time, rob.

I wasn't criticizing, I was just informing him IF it was not a spelling mistake.

Also shut up ODIN, why did you come back if your here to argue all the time (only reason you were let back is because of your mod database?).

funfact: I still have projektTHOR in my friends list, not that I ever liked you, you seem to like norse mythology, being named after two norse god.

You mean filled with lies and hard to understand?
