Also would it be possible to check the player names too?

How? ACS doesn't have string management.

[Cutmanmike]

Well bubbletrumps...

[Graf Zahl]

???

[Cutmanmike]

A nicer word for crap

[farlowj]

How about adjusting the FOV via ACS, would that be too hard? I know it was asked before, but I don't know what the answer was.

[Xenophon]

Is it just me or are railguns in this version ALWAYS BLACK no matter what I do with the rail codepointer in decorate?

[Grubber]

It's A_RailAttack (damage, xyoffs, usenoammo, color1, color2, silent). Color1,2 can be defined as "RR GG BB" (hexadecimal) or any entry from X11R6RGB lump or "none" for no color (invisible). It's a little bit different than original kgsws's version.

[Cutmanmike]

I think I found a bug. Custom hitscans aren't reaching far enough, or is this just my imagination?

[TheDarkArchon]

It's been reported 4 times. The problem: The function uses MISSILERANGE not PLAYERMISSILERANGE

Code: Select all

void A_FireBullets (AActor *self)
{
	int index=CheckIndex(6);
	if (index<0 || !self->player || !self->player->ReadyWeapon) return;

	angle_t Spread_XY=StateParameters[index];

	int DamagePerBullet=StateParameters[index+3];
	const char * PuffTypeName=(const char *)StateParameters[index+4];
	int UseNoAmmo=StateParameters[index+5];
	const TypeInfo * PuffType;

	player_t * player=self->player;
	AWeapon * weapon=player->ReadyWeapon;

	int i;
	int bangle;
	int bslope;

	if (!UseNoAmmo)
	{
		if (!weapon->DepleteAmmo(weapon->bAltFire, true)) return;	// out of ammo
	}

	static_cast<APlayerPawn *>(self)->PlayAttacking2 ();

	P_BulletSlope(self);
	bangle = self->angle;
	bslope = bulletpitch;

	PuffType = TypeInfo::FindType(PuffTypeName);
	if (!PuffType) PuffType=RUNTIME_CLASS(ABulletPuff);

	S_SoundID (self, CHAN_WEAPON, weapon->AttackSound, 1, ATTN_NORM);

	if ((NumberOfBullets==1 && !player->refire) || NumberOfBullets==0)
	{
		int damage = ((pr_cwbullet()%3)+1)*DamagePerBullet;
		P_LineAttack(self, bangle, PLAYERMISSILERANGE, bslope, damage, GetDefaultByType(PuffType)->DamageType, PuffType);
	}
	else for (i=0 ; i<NumberOfBullets ; i++)
	{
		int angle = bangle + pr_cwbullet.Random2() * (Spread_XY / 255);
		int slope = bslope + pr_cwbullet.Random2() * (Spread_Z / 255);
		int damage = ((pr_cwbullet()%3)+1) * DamagePerBullet;
		P_LineAttack(self, angle, PLAYERMISSILERANGE, slope, damage, GetDefaultByType(PuffType)->DamageType, PuffType);
	}

It's A_RailAttack (damage, xyoffs, usenoammo, color1, color2, silent). Color1,2 can be defined as "RR GG BB" (hexadecimal) or any entry from X11R6RGB lump or "none" for no color (invisible). It's a little bit different than original kgsws's version.

does this action apply to monsters as well?

[Grubber]

For monsters it's A_CustomRailgun (damage, xyoffs, color1, color2, silent)

EDIT:
Also, fixed A_FireBullets

EDIT:
Added jump height property:

SetActorProperty (tid, APROP_JumpZ, height);

Height is fixed number (e.g. 16.0), when set to 0, default JumpZ is used. Note that the jump height isn't maximum jump height, it's computed as maximum=height*8.

[BetaSword]

Damn, nice. I may have to go back and add this in to my old levels so that gravity doesn't have to be altered and screwed with.

[TheDarkArchon]

Grubber: How about implement kgsws's flash effect?

[Cutmanmike]

Wow that was fast. Thanks grubby.

Btw I think I found a lil bug. Falling onto a flat which has warp2 will play the default doomguy landing sound even if you're wearing a skin.

[Tormentor667]

Just curious @Graf

- What about Blood angles (for KDiZD)?
