#10867: Re: missing (

by Red October on 07/08/2008 06:04, refers to #10864

Those scripts work pretty well; however, what I originally intended for the zoom was that you have to be holding the sniper in order to be able to zoom in, and for other weapons there are varying levels of zoom.

Inside the C++ snipe function, I have another couple sections for the chaingun and rocket launcher, each with different zoomed-in FoVs. Is it possible to check the identity of the weapon being held using CubeScript? If so, I wouldn't need to use the C++.

One more thing; how can I add a mask over the zoomed-in view, so that it looks like a scope with a large crosshair over it? They have that effect in AssaultCube, and I wonder if it'll work for Sauerbraten too.

Thank you!

Did you even read the scripts? :(
What do you think (getweapon) does?

Expect the mask you can do to all the things with scripts.

Yeah, I did... but I missed \"setweapon.\" XD. Thanks. So I guess the way to do this is check if the weapon is the sniper, and if it is, then to change the FOV. But how do I compare the value of cw? Do I do:
if ($cw = \"rifle\") [ ]
?

Thanks.

Or
if ($cw = 4) [ ]
?

T_T

Exactly that was written in my first script example...

if (= (getweapon) 4) [ ...

]


This could work, too (not tested) :

if (= $cw 4) [ ...

]


You just have to get along with the syntax:

if (= X Y) [ ... ]

Well I tried adding that in, but now it zooms no matter what weapon you're holding.

This is what I have in zoom.cfg:

alias "zoom"
bind MOUSE2 [ cw = (getweapon);
cf = $fov;
cs = $sensitivity;
if (= (getweapon) 4)
fov 30;
sensitivity 1;
hudgun 0;
onrelease [ setweapon $cw;
fov $cf;
sensitivity $cs;
hudgun 1;
]
]
]

As far as I can see it should work; I don't know why it doesn't.

At first don't use the word zoom because the native command for zoom is called the same!


Alias don't work like that.
Use it like this:

alias my_alias [ DO SOMETHING ]

and then us it with bindings

bind MOUSE2 my_alias


There is a "[" missing after the "if" statement.

And you overwrite the hudgun value. Why not save it, too?

Would look like this in the end:


alias my_zoom [ cw = (getweapon);
cf = $fov;
cs = $sensitivity;
ch = $hudgun
if (= (getweapon) 4) [ fov 30;
sensitivity 1;
hudgun 0;
onrelease [ setweapon $cw;
fov $cf;
sensitivity $cs;
hudgun $ch;
]
]
]

bind "MOUSE2" my_zoom;

Grrr... I formatted the script with spaces but the forum ate all of them. D:

Some [script][/script] would be nice to prevent this bad looking code!

The script works perfect now. Thanks so much! Even though it took me like 10 posts to figure it out... XD

So how can I add a mask while zoomed in?

I really wish there were a list of commands and vars like getweapon - the docs don't help much (or maybe I'm missing something).

Thanks again,
RO

If you grep the source for 'COMMANDN?(' and 'I?VAR[FP]*(', you'll get a list of all commands and vars... Most you can figure out what they do by looking at them. Any that you can't figure out what they do, well, you probably shouldn't mess with them. :P

I know the getweapon and how to use it from "solaris hudguns".

You could get some of the scripts from quadropolis and try to understand them.

#10878: Help Command?

by Jomskylark on 07/08/2008 20:25

It's probably right there in front of me, but what's the default help command to type? I've tried /help and #help, but neither works.

For example, #stats works to show stats.

Thanks!

#10879: Re: Help Command?

by Jomskylark on 07/08/2008 20:34, refers to #10878

Ok, so I found #info. But what command can I type to bring up the info ABOUT the gametype?

If you press tab, it lets you see WHAT gametype. But how do I figure out what I'm supposed to do in that certain gametype?

Thanks.

Okay, I thought there was a little menu that popped up during each gametype or something, but thanks anyway!

#10882: Simple texture ( aka picmip-like)

by DavZ on 07/09/2008 10:27

Is it possible to set same textures for all maps? I mean one texture by wall /ground/sky etc...

I want to make my game to simple texture like this: http://img233.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ezquake007hi2.jpg

#10886: Reducing gridpower?

by ingsoc on 07/09/2008 14:26

Hi,
I've been trying to get a new mode of game working where each player has an 'edit gun' that can modify the terrain. I've been hacking on the source for a while, but I can't find where the maximum gridpower is set. This means that most games end by some idiot wiping out the entire map :)
Can anyone help me out?
