[WIP] Flawless' thread of inspiration

[FlawlessHappiness]

Hi.

Sometimes I get a rush of inspiration, but never really finish anything.
Then I have a prototype going to waste.

I figured I'd like to share whatever I come up with.

You're allowed to use my concepts in any mod you make as long as you credit me

Moving an entity with scripting [Animated] VERY EXPERIMENTAL
Here, I made a script on how to move a static entity with the SetEntityPos scriptline.
WARNING: Move only 1 object at a time. Can cause lag.

Spoiler below!

This has to be in your scriptfile:

PHP Code: (Select All)

void MoveEntityToEntity(string &in asEntity, string &in asDestEntity, float afSpace, float afFreq)
{
    if(GetLocalVarInt("Moving"+asEntity) == 1)
    {
        AddDebugMessage("Object already moving", false);
        return;
    }
    
    SetLocalVarFloat("MoveFreq_"+asEntity, afFreq);
    
    SetLocalVarFloat("MoveSpace_"+asEntity, afSpace);
    
    float afAmountX = GetEntityPosX(asDestEntity)-GetEntityPosX(asEntity);
    SetLocalVarFloat("MoveAmountX_"+asEntity, MathSqrt(MathPow(afAmountX, 2)));
    SetLocalVarFloat("MoveSpaceX_"+asEntity, afSpace);
    if(afAmountX < 0)
    {

To make an entity move to a specific entity, write:

PHP Code: (Select All)

MoveEntityToEntity(string &in asEntity, string &in asDestEntity, float afSpace, float afFreq) 


asEntity = The entity to move.

asDestEntity = The entity to move towards.

afAmountX = The amount to move on the X-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afAmountY = The amount to move on the Y-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afAmountZ = The amount to move on the Z-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afSpace = The amount of space the object moves with, per frequence.
Must be above 0.
If used with a frequence at 0.01f:
0.01f is kinda slow.
0.02f is quicker.

afFreq = How often the object moves.
Must be above 0.
0.01f looks really smooth.

To make an entity move a specific amount, write:

PHP Code: (Select All)

MoveEntityOnAxis(string &in asEntity, float afAmountX, float afAmountY, float afAmountZ, float afTime); 


asEntity = The entity to move.

afAmountX = The amount to move on the X-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afAmountY = The amount to move on the Y-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afAmountZ = The amount to move on the Z-axis
Can be both positive and negative.

afTime = Duration of animation in seconds.

When the entity has moved, the function OnArrival(string &in asEntity) calls.

PHP Code: (Select All)

void OnArrival(string &in asEntity) 


asEntity = The entity that moved.

Variables used in this script:
float "MoveFreq_"+asObject
float "MoveAmountX_"+asObject
float "MoveAmountY_"+asObject
float "MoveAmountZ_"+asObject
float "MoveSpaceX_"+asObject
float "MoveSpaceY_"+asObject
float "MoveSpaceZ_"+asObject
int "Moving"+asObject

Scary heartbeat screen effects
A heartbeat script, that uses both screen effects and the heartbeat sound.

Spoiler below!

PHP Code: (Select All)

//////////////
//HEART BEAT//

//To start heartbeat effect, add both of these lines
//SetLocalVarInt("Heartbeat", 1);
//AddTimer("HeartBeat_1", 2, "HeartBeat");
//
//To stop hearbeat use the following line
//SetLocalVarInt("Heartbeat", 0);

void HeartBeat(string &in asTimer)
{
    if(GetLocalVarInt("Heartbeat") == 1)
    {
        if(asTimer == "HeartBeat_1")
        {
            PlaySoundAtEntity("heartbeat", "sanity_heartbeat.snt", "Player", 0.0f, false);
            AddTimer("Beat", 0.05f, "HeartBeat");
            AddTimer("Beat", 0.35f, "HeartBeat");
            AddDebugMessage("EXECUTE TIMER", false);
            AddTimer("HeartBeat_1", 2, "HeartBeat");
        }
        
        if(asTimer == "Beat")
        {
            FadePlayerAspectMulTo(1.25f, 20);
            FadeRadialBlurTo(0.05f, 20);
            FadePlayerFOVMulTo(0.8f, 30);
            AddTimer("Beat_end", 0.05f, "HeartBeat");
        }
        
        if(asTimer == "Beat_end")
        {
            FadePlayerAspectMulTo(1.0f, 1);
            FadePlayerFOVMulTo(1.0f, 0.75f);
            FadeRadialBlurTo(0.0f, 1);
        }
    }
}

Cool work! I like to see experimental modding. Got me thinking about portals and how they could be used. I have an idea for shooting a portal anywhere, instead of on set points... But I've got too much to do already.

Sounds cool! Something about creating entities I guess...

[FlawlessHappiness]

New thing out.





I did not make a second level :/

little did alexander know, daniel can always get away from his servants with a sick wall-run into a backflip move.

And thus Daniel Lantern-ran his way through the halls of Brennenburg.

[Slanderous]

Nice dude! That looks awesome.

[HumiliatioN]

Wow, really original ideas you got there, keep up the great work!

[FlawlessHappiness]

New script!

Moving an entity to another entity, or just a specific distance.

Is there anything you'd like to see in this script?

[Mudbill]

Doesn't

PHP Code: (Select All)

void PlaceEntityAtEntity(string &in asName, string &in asTargetEntity, string &in asTargetBodyName, bool abUseRotation); 


do the same? Or does this actually animate the entity moving towards another entity?
