 Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 I bet you could make dropships with advanced stability with a bit of tweaking to that script.

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 This is the stabilization part of the code: Code: if self.RotAngle > 1.5 then
self.AngularVel = self.AngularVel - 1
elseif self.RotAngle < -1.5 then
self.AngularVel = self.AngularVel + 1
else
self.AngularVel = self.AngularVel * 0.97
end

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 I rather like the one engine flying thing, it's like a final attempt to crash into as many people as you can manage.

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 Can you please tell, where is the mace emitter code? I want to try some tweaking with it, so that it produces more force and less dmg, but cannot find it. I was actually surprised findind the simplicity of repairing rockets - with your lua they actually deliver cargo themselves. A must have. Also, a small bug, i am still unable to repeat at will - with some dmg to one engine the dropship starts flipping violently, you can see the code trying to fight it back(the ship flyes on side) but failing. Will try to get an img. Mace still does not always self-destruct or settle. Dont really knw if you need this, but did not see any bugreports here

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 Good job with the stability thing.  I was flying around for a bit like that.

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 You stive for bugs? Ok, here is the new stuff Chain and ball ship doent always count killed in mission. Maybe even never, dunno. The one you buy does. It is here  No longer, look at 6.  Another stuff, enemy dropships flip fro a nimble touch from yours. Will try to make pics of it. Whoops, it is just that they have no lua. Not a bug. I think I am an idiot, so i am really sorry for that... But wrere is the mass and sharpness?  If I understood it right it refers to heavy digger particles, but there are no such stuff in base/devices/diggers... Can you teach me where to find (and tweak) it, please?

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 The cutter emitts a particle that can be found in Base.rte/Ammo.ini. You can create a modified copy of this particle in Hammer.rte/Ships.ini like this: Code: EmittedParticle = MOPixel
CopyOf = Particle Heavy Digger
PresetName = Particle Heavy Digger New
Mass = 0.08
LifeTime = 15
Sharpness = 18

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 Oh, well uh, if you want a bug report, I managed to break a piece of the chain off and maintain full functionality of the ball and chain, I tried grabbing a picture but it didn't come out.
Basically one of the sections of chain broke off and the only thing left was a little rotating ball joint floating half way in the air between the other two sections of chain. Worked just fine though, seemed to even stretch out a little further.

Re: Hammer R2 - 2010-03-18 Good find! The whole chain is supposed to fall apart if a single link or joint break, but sometimes CC reports a Movable Object as valid long after it has settled or been gibbed. That is why I prefer test the object like this: Code: if MovableMan:IsParticle(MO) and MO.ClassName ~= "Entity" then
-- Safe to access MO
Instead of like this: Code: if MovableMan:IsParticle(MO) then
-- MO is safe to access but not guaranteed to exist
But in this case I simply forgot.
