Quoted from http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editref.html#_light_

"light" radius r g b

If G and B are 0 the R value will be taken as brightness for a white light. A good radius for a small wall light is 64, for a middle sized room 128... for a sun probably more like 1000. Lights with a radius of 0 do not attenuate and may be more appropriate for simulating sunlight or ambient light; however, this comes at the cost of slightly greater map file sizes. See the lighting commands for an indepth list of all lighting related commands.

#10384: Multiplayer crashing

by k7991 on 04/13/2008 03:08

When i try to do anything related to connecting to someone else in the multiplayer menu (for example, Selecting "update from master server"), the game crashes, is there any reason for this? My PC isn't very good but it otherwise runs the game at quite a good framerate.

#10386: EisenStern Scripting

by Xannin. on 04/13/2008 05:57

I've been trying to make a spell in EisenStern that, once it hits its target, will do damage over a period of time. Essentially its a poison spell.
Here is the action associated with the spell:

r_lastingdamage = [
damage = (r_get_damage)
r_pop
loop i 20 [
r_applydamage (div (* $damage $arg1) 100)
sleep 2000
]
]

The problem I'm having is that the sleep command doesn't appear to execute. What I get is 7 damage, 20 times, all at the same time. Am I using the sleep command correctly? If I am does anyone see what is wrong?

Thanks

I'm no expert with cubescript, but maybe swap the 'sleep 2000' and the 'r_applydamage...' lines around?

sleeps in loops don't work. a sleep command normally works like this:

sleep 2000 [<command>]

you could do this:

r_lastingdamage = [
damage = (r_get_damage)
r_pop
count = 0
damage_apply = [
r_applydamage (div (* $damage $arg1) 100)
count = (+ $count 1)
if (< $count 20) [
sleep 2000 [ r_applydamage ]
]
]

Thanks for the help, however, I'm ditching the idea because there are way too many problems to work out.
I'm not sure why but when I tried your suggestion nothing happened. No damage was applied and the creature did not turn hostile.

It seems that there is a problem with having r_applydamage (div (* $damage $arg1) 100) inside another statement. I think for some reason it is unable to find $damage or $arg1.

I tried something like this to see if it would work at all:

sleep 750 [ r_applydamage (div (* 7 100) 100) ]
sleep 750 [ r_applydamage (div (* 7 100) 100) ]
sleep 750 [ r_applydamage (div (* 7 100) 100) ]
and so on...

with this, there is a wait and then all the damage is applied at the same time.
The biggest problem, thought, is that if the creature attacks you before it takes the damage, I think it puts you on top of the "stack" and you take all the damage. So any time something attacked me before it took damage, I took the 140 damage.

Thanks anyway, I think I'm just going to try to keep it simple.

Is there a patch for this problem?

What is an 'ATi Radeon 1100'? I've never even heard of one of those.

Oh. Quick google reveals that it's an integrated chipset, so you're never going to get much performance at all.

Also, the ATi support is fine. All -real- cards work without hiccups, and the latest CVS has also developed a fix for the evil 'sparklies' which have plagued ATi cards on sauerbraten for ages.

#10395: Player Speed

by tman_elite on 04/20/2008 04:29

I'm working on a mod (mostly just for my own pleasure. Don't worry, I read all the liscenses and stuff, and I expect to do all of the work myself.) There are just a few things I'd like to know:

Is there a (simple) way to change the code so that the player speed is taken from a cfg file, instead of just being a concrete number? Or, an alternative, is there a way to have triggers disable movement (temporarily)?

My mod is mostly singleplayer, and in some levels you fight monsters and in some you fight robots. I tried disabling blood (for levels with robots) in the map config but it says something like "cannot override persistant variable." Any ideas?

Is there a way to have a trigger activated at the end of a level (after you kill the last monster)?

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'll probably come up with a few more questions later.

#10396: Re: Player Speed

by SheeEttin on 04/20/2008 04:54, refers to #10395

It's certainly possible to freeze the player. Just look at the /taunt command and rip some of it out and use in in (e.g.) a /killmovement command.

For disabling blood, you'll find "IVARP(blood, 0, 1, 1);" in fpsgame/weapon.h (line 268ish). Just change that to "IVAR(...);" and it should work fine.
It might also be possible to change the blood texture (e.g. to transparent) if the above doesn't work.

As for a trigger activated after killing all monsters, you can certainly do that in the source. (Just poke around in fpsgame/monster.h, start from the bit about "only %d monster%s remaining".)
For CFG-only, you'd have to set up a button that you could only get to at the end.
Or you could create a new read-only var called monremaining or something, and only let the button work if monremaining == 1.

I should probably be going to bed, though...

#10397: Re: Player Speed

by tman_elite on 04/20/2008 05:30, refers to #10396

Thanks for the tips. I looked for the taunt command a little but I couldn't find it. I'll try again tomorrow. As for the blood thing, nothing really changed, but I'll try to recompile using the "clean" thing, because sometimes changes don't seem to work unless you do that (in my experience, at least.) I'll look into the code for the monsters thing tomorrow as well.

As for now, it's off to bed for me. Thanks again for the help.

by yetanotherdemosthenescomputer on 04/20/2008 06:35, refers to #10397

For the blood, you might have to change one of the ones to a zero, because I think one is the default value and the other two are the range.

Am I right, code experts?
