How to make a rope

[FlawlessHappiness]

It will be a matter of attached... Hmmm... do dis, tru fren:

Code: (Select All)

void OnStart() //This could change!
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Da_box_in_da_rope", "Area", "Interact", true, 1); ///When the rope is down, it will collide with this area, which will activate an area *look down*
}

void Interact (string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
///I don't know how to make an area interactable, so yea... make an area which you can touch. The interaction with it will give you the item (key). Sorry for this little thing. When you interact, it will:
GiveItem("Key", "Item", "Puzzle", "key.tga", 1);
SetEntityActive("Da_key_in_da_box", false);

}

---

You can make the box smaller than the key so it doesn't collide with the outer of the key.

I'll see what it leads to.

Have to sleep now.

Sorry for bumping

Hi The Chaser

I just discovered something that might be useful to this thread.

When you make a rope, you can set it's "EndBody" to be a "invisible_body".
This is used if you want the rope to end a specific place, and not just hanging from the ceiling.

I used this to create a bridge, that it held by chains.

Oh, thanks for sharing! Ropes are very useful and they can be used for a lot of things, but I just made the basics. Ropes are a great resource to use.

Hey everybody,

I was requested to provide help with creating ropes and using them to lower a bucket into a well. I decided to make tutorial videos on how to do it.

Feedback/concerns are always welcome. I hope they are useful.

There's already a tutorial about this. Nonetheless, it's still useful for someone that didn't understand what this thread below meant.

Meh, I didn't know it, but okay, thanks for the heads up.
