Post subject:  Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Alright, again i'm back with needed help

I've tried many things and I can't get the LUA code to do as I need

First off: I made a thread asking about invisibility without lua, and I see this is impossible so, I searched around the mod releases and at like page 8-11
I encounter the ghillie suit actor for CC and I checked it out and saw that it had a invisibility script, and I do credit him greatly, but I can't get the code to make myself invisibility instead of changing teams, so can anyone help?

Code:
function Create(self)
   self.curteam = self.Team
   self.shottimer = Timer();
end

function Update(self)
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_CROUCH) then
      self.Team = 1 - self.curteam
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.WEAPON_FIRE) then
      self.Team = self.curteam
      self.shottimer:Reset()
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_LEFT) then
      self.Team = self.curteam
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_RIGHT) then
      self.Team = self.curteam
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_JUMP) then
      self.Team = self.curteam
   end
   if not(self.shottimer:IsPastRealMS(2000)) then
      self.Team =  self.curteam
   end
   if self.Health <= .5 then
      self.Team = self.curteam
   end
end

function Destroy(self)
   self.Team = self.curteam
end


I took about the flashwhite coding line cause it just made my guy completely white :V

The code for actual invisibility is incredibly different and complicated. Aim lower.

Instead of looking through the mod releases thread so tediously just use the Search function. It's on the red bar near the top of the forum site.

This is a stealth module that allows your units to cloak when not excessively moving or shooting.
Do note that hp damage will disable the cloak.


Looking at the code for it I smashed together something.
Code:
function Visiblize()
   for i = 1,MovableMan:GetMOIDCount() - 1 do
      if MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i).RootID == self.ID then
         MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i).Scale = 1
      end
   end
end

function Create(self)
   self.LastShot = Timer()
   self.Hurt = Timer()
   self.HP = self.Health
end

function Update(self)
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_CROUCH) then
      for i = 1,MovableMan:GetMOIDCount() - 1 do
         if MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i).RootID == self.ID then
            MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i).Scale = 0
         end
      end
   end
   if self.HP ~= self.Health then
      self.Hurt:Reset()
   end
   self.HP = self.Health
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.WEAPON_FIRE) then
      self.LastShot:Reset()
   end
   if not(self.LastShot:IsPastRealMS(2000)) or not(self.Hurt:IsPastRealMS(2000)) or self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_JUMP) or self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_RIGHT) or self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_LEFT) then
      Visiblize()
   end
end

function Destroy(self)
   Visiblize()
end

Basically what this does is it shrinks the size of the actor down to nothing to make it invisible. The HUD thing above the actor will still be visible, so this might not be everything you were hoping for.

Actually that's what i've been hoping for but after then I need to work on my personal mods sprites :V

all of the curteam stuff is just setting a team, what're you

Code:
function Create(self)
   self.shottimer = Timer();
   self.attachables = {};
   for i = 1, MovableMan:GetMOIDCount() - 1 do
      local mo = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i)
      if mo.RootID == self.ID and i ~= self.ID then
         table.insert(self.attachables, ToAttachable(mo)); end
   end
end

function Update(self)
   for k,v in ipairs(self.attachables) do
      if not MovableMan:ValidMO(v) then
         table.remove(self.attachables,k); end
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_CROUCH) and self.shottimer:IsPastSimMS(200) then
      self:setScale(0);
   end
   if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.WEAPON_FIRE) then
      self:setScale(1);
      self.shottimer:Reset()
   else if self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_LEFT) or self:GetController():IsState(Controller.MOVE_RIGHT) or self:GetController():IsState(Controller.BODY_JUMP) self.Health <= 10 then
      self:setScale(1);
   end
end

function setScale(self,size)
   self.Scale = size;
   for k,v in ipairs(self.attachables) do
      v.Scale = size;
   end
end
that's closer to what you want, I think, but it'll also make you invincible, so you'll need to do invisible frames for body and head most likely and then scale the limbs.

FFS should've posted this a million years ago <_< triple ninja'd or whatever.

This is what the script did :V
Also look at the file name :smug:

The 200 health was edited in the character.

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Small issue with the last script, looking at Geti's reminded me of it. I've updated the last post's script, try it again please... or try Geti's.

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Ill try both and see which one I like :V

Crazy, your script did the same thing as it did. before
Geti's, script didn't work either :V

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Get rid of the jetpack, feet and hand sprites. Lua can't touch them.
Maybe move the jetpack sprite to the body, the hand sprite to the arm and the feet to the leg.

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
I would take the stealth script from the darkstorm
But I don't know what to take and or edit :V

But of course I will credit whoever I get a script from.

Darkstorm's Yuurei script works by switching the sprites of everything.

Nope, scales the limbs cause we don't have frame overrides.
Also yeah you can't do much about the jet & hands than remove it

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Ah. I stand corrected. The rest of it is sprite changes though, to allow it to continue to be vulnerable. The scripts in this thread would leave the actor invulnerable to most things.

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
You could still have leg sprites and hand sprites integrated into their apropriate limbs.
And jetpack on body sprite, or as an attachment.

Post subject:  Re: Need someone who knows quite a bit of LUA
Yeah, you really don't lose anything from integrating them in this way, seeing as they are barely visually dynamic in a way that is important.
