 Gibbing when all health is gone Ok here is my problem:
I need a little tidbit of code that will make an actor completely gib when he looses his health, or at least gib his body.
I won't say what this is for, other than a revolutionary actor. And i need this code ASAP.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone That's not possible.
Learn to tweak gibwoundlimits.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone not really.
its for my suicide actor and ive tried using an emitter but that doesnt give it the effect i want. All it does is drain his health, no matter where i puit the emitter, how sharp the particles are, or the velocity they are shot at. and yes, it is HitMOS = 1.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone Ah, how is a suicide actor in any way revolutionary?
Anyways, if you do burstdamage right, set the EmissionsPerMinute or whatever to the right value, and give the wound the right damage, it ought to be able to emit suicide particles at a fairly good rate.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone i have it timed and everything perfectly for the beep sound to go off every time he looses 1 health, and ive timed it out exactly to last 30 seconds before he dies/gibs. and the wounds are perfect. right now, im setting him off with an old bomb i made.
the revolutionary part is no one has done it this way before.
im just stuck on the gibbing part.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone Make it so that the Emitter has a
BurstSpacing = 30000 (30 seconds)
on an emitter than shoots out a 9999999999 mass(or something high enough to gib his body) particle that has a life time of 0.001
I'm pretty sure that this will work

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone tried it, keeps failing at line 433 and says: Quote: Property name wasn't followed by a value in *filepath* at line 433 This is what line 433 is: I've tried making the sharpness 99999 and that and even less. It just wont work. And here is the currently failing code: Code: AddEffect = MOPixel
InstanceName = StartDamage
Mass = 99999999
RestThreshold = 500
LifeTime = 0.001
Sharpness = 50
HitsMOs = 1
GetsHitByMOs = 0
Color = Color
R = 143
G = 143
B = 143
Atom = Atom
Material = Material
CopyOf = Default
TrailColor = Color
R = 155
G = 155
B = 155
TrailLength = 1

Try lowering the mass, 6 digits of 9.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone OHAITHAR!

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone Give it another emitter that doesn't emit until time is up - do this by making sure the burst on this emitter is non-existant, and making the emissions per minute 2 - that way it will only emit after 30 seconds. And when it does you can have it emit the explosion.

Re: Gibbing when all health is gone It doesn't seem to be possible, and it doesn't sound like it would be very useful if it was possible.
Why would you want a timed actor as opposed to one that you could set off at your will?
