 Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Sean Mirrsen wrote: Fill the maze with module-sized blocks of blackness that disappear if your controlled actor is close enough. Even if the maze is fairly large, it's unlikely to be more than a few hundred standard bunker modules - with a fairly simple script, the blackness blobs won't hurt your framerate too much, and your maze will look like a sort of a roguelike. How would you go about making that? WOuld they be AEmitters? Would this method prevent me from adding enemies? Or can these blackness modules be HitByMOs = 0?

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Yes, like giant intangible MOSParticles.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept It'd be easier and safer to attach it to the actor, methinks.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept no, and it wouldnt if they were MOSParticles.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Ok. New Prove that Concept:
Can you have an AHuman with more than 2 arms?
If yes, can two foreground arms be made to not hit each other?
I'm trying to make a hackjob arm that "properly" rotates on it's elbow, making each segment as an additional arm.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Someone already made that, not sure who, but I'm pretty sure it was one guy attached to another.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Completely unrelated to anything thus far.
Is it possible to have a weapon drawn on top of an arm, instead of the arm covering the weapon?
I have the Dummy Behemoth's Rocket Fist just about done, but the magazine with discardable = 0 is being drawn under the arm.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept I'm thinking DrawAfterParent should do the trick, but I'm not sure if it works on weapons.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept mail2345 wrote: I'm thinking DrawAfterParent should do the trick, but I'm not sure if it works on weapons. Yeah, it worked. I asked Duh about it. I only had Drawafterparent on the magazine (the "hand") and I needed it on the gun as well. Stupid me. Now, is it possible to have the gun flash white momentarily (a la actors when they use the teleporter modules) when it's finished reloading? I want to simulate a new fist "spawning".

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept FlashWhite is a function for actors.
You could spawn a white MO at the esitameted fist location, and checked off via DoneReloading, but I'm not sure if my attachable hack works with DoneReloading.

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept What about switching the sprite of the magazine to a full white sprite and then half a second later revert it to the intended one?

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Try making another frame for the mag and switching between the two using lua (and the Frame var).

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept I don't suppose there's a hacky way to make an animated bunker module is there? I'm talking about the actual Foreground layer.bmp having multiple frames. Possible?

Re: LFoW's Prove That Concept Use child objects. You can't actually animate the bunker module itself.
