[WIP] Gravity Gun

[The Zombie Killer]

Download

This is a (work-in-progress) gravity gun for ZDoom. It is both a resource and a project.

CVars:

• sv_ggun_damage: the amount of damage punting will do (default 10)
• sv_ggun_force: the amount of force that a punt will exert (default 25)
• sv_ggun_range: how far the gravity gun can reach (default 1024 units)
• sv_ggun_harmheld: controls whether punting an object that is currently being held will damage it (default true)
• sv_ggun_allactors: allows other actors such as corpses and items to be picked up (default false)

The gravity gun's actor name is GravityGun, it is in weapon slot 8. It currently does not replace any weapons or spawn anywhere on its own.

This is really good, but will there ever come a stage in which it can take hold of other players and allow you to move them around or throw them in multiplayer?

mmmh interesting.much coding i guess

[Kagur]

Uhmmm... I notice that the source acs file isn't there.

Uhmmm... I notice that the source acs file isn't there. :roll:

Yes it is. Did you think of looking at the src folder inside the rar file?
(Well, it's C code, but it's still compiled into ACS bytecode)

No need to be condescending. I didn't notice the second file for download when I clicked the link. Usually, the source file is provided with the main mod.

Considering it's a resource, you should have checked the thread again at least three times. Yeah, sure, it's usually provided with the main mod, but we've been getting mods that can't just do that because they need a specific compiler that isn't the standard ACC, so you should expect it to be somewhere else. (For example, a few things by TZK that require GDCC, DoomRPG (requires DH-ACC. (or whatever the name is) Might be converted to C code for GDCC-CC in the future IIRC))
[edit]Also, it wasn't meant to be condescending. English is not my native language, so sometimes what I say might sound rude or something. If I'm being rude, it's usually not on purpose.[/edit]

I have yet to see a mod that uses a different compiler than ACC, so not being aware of it doesn't warrant that kind of justification.

isnt it much work to configure to the thing in the game like enemys and other stuff

In Gzdoom, it does push things, but doesn't pull. In Zandronum, it doesn't do either of them.

[HannesH]

how i sayed : much work

[phantombeta]

Eh... I'd say TZK just started making this and pulling will be in soon... I remember another Gravity Gun existing. (One that could pull) I think that one was made by TZK too...

[HannesH]

ok i think when its out i want to try it

[Hornetzero]

I would be very happy if it could do even half of the tricks shown from on wards 0:36 on this video:

The first ZDoom gravity gun was made by Linguica, the second one (that I know of) was by me and is part of my old mod "Zombie's Mod".
Pulling will be in soon, I just wanted to get this out there quicker.
