Code: Select all

      EXPL ABC 1 BRIGHT A_EXPLODE
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
Take a look at the first line. It is three states with a delay of 1 each. A fix would be:

Code: Select all

      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      FIR2 A 0 A_SPAWNITEMEX("MolotovFire", 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, random (0, 360), 0)
      EXPL ABC 1 BRIGHT A_EXPLODE
But seconds doesn't sound right. If that doesn't work, try moving the spawnitemex calls in front of the alertmonsters call

That still didn't seem to work. Oh well. I've just sent X-CrAzYkOoL-X my mod to take a look at it.

Another thing that could be wrong: Does the sprite FIR2 actually exist? Within the fire actor itself it starts out with FIR2 and then switches to FIRD.

Holy shit. You're right! Oh my god, I can't believe I missed that! Thanks for pointing that out!

It kinda works now, it's still a bit buggy though. The molotov fire don't spawn if the molotov cocktail either explodes on top of an enemy or if they are really close to the explosion. Also, the molotov fire will keep moving until the animation is done or if it hits a wall. Could someone help fix that for me?

Hmm, that's looking pretty good so far. Much better than what I was able to do on my own. Is there a way to have the flames stop moving at a certain distance or if they hit a wall or a ledge or something?

A_Stop might stop the flame actor. I don't think you can do it at a certain distance though

Ooh. Your suggestion works. I put the A_Stop on a blank frame or whatever this following is called:

Code: Select all

    FIRD ABC 2 BRIGHT A_Explode
    FIRD ABC 2 BRIGHT A_Explode
    FIRD A 0 BRIGHT A_Stop
    FIRD ABC 2 BRIGHT A_Explode
and it works. Thanks. :)

Now, if I wanted to make some changes to the flames that don't move at all, the ones that are spawned in the middle of the explosion, which of the lines X-CrAzYkOoL-X posted would I change?

if you dont want it to move, copy the A_CustomMissile AI thing i did in the middle (custom missile is your friend for this :P )

edit: this is the hint on what your doing and saying.

edit2: the altfire of the molotov is good for curtain places, but i think you should put an AltHold thing on it.

Wait, so how exactly is it supposed to look? Sorry for asking, I'm still really crappy with Decorate, despite having messed around with it for a while...

Alright, so I'm trying to make a HelperSpawner type item like the TeleportBeacon from Strife, but I'm having trouble implementing it. I can pick up the item, but I can't use it for some reason.

Code: Select all

  ACTOR SupportBeacon : Inventory replaces Berserk
  {
    Health 5
    Radius 16
    Height 16
    Inventory.MaxAmount 3
    +INVENTORY.INVBAR
    Inventory.Icon "STINV01"
    Tag "Support Beacon"
    Inventory.PickupMessage "You picked up the Support Beacon."

    States
    {
    Spawn:
      PTRB A -1
      Stop
    Use:
      PTRB A 1 A_ThrowGrenade("ExterminatorSpawner",2,10,2,0)
      PTRB A 160
      Wait
    Death:
      PTRB A 1 A_FadeOut(0.015)
      Loop
  }
}

 ACTOR ExterminatorSpawner
{
  Radius 23
  Height 12
  Mass 60
   +NOTARGET
   +ISMONSTER
   +FRIENDLY
   +DROPOFF
   +MISSILE
   +WINDTHRUST
   +PUSHABLE
   +CANBOUNCEWATER
  States
  {
    Spawn:
      PTRB A 1
      Loop
    Death:
      TELX A 0 BRIGHT A_PlaySound("WLIceShot/icechargeup")
      TELX A 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.6)
      TELX B 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.5)
      TELX C 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.4)
      TELX D 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.3)
      TELX E 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.2)
      TELX F 2 BRIGHT A_SetTranslucent(0.1)
      TELX G 6 
      TELX H 1 A_SpawnItem("ExterminatorBuddy",1)
     Stop
   }
}
