Fill in the required spots

Code: Select all

pickup:

local.object = spawn trigger_use "targetname" "object"
local.object model "your model"
local.object.origin = ( X Y Z )
local.object.angles = ( X Y Z )
local.object setsize ( -X -Y -Z ) ( X Y Z )
local.object solid
local.object setthread pickit

end

pickit:

self nottriggerable
local.p = parm.other

local.model = self.model
local.origin = self.origin
waitframe
self remove

local.p playsound plantbomb1
local.p iprint "You picked up the Object!" 1
iprintlnbold ("The " + local.p.dmteam + " have picked up the Object")

while (isalive local.p)
{
wait 0.2
}

if (local.p == NIL || local.p == NULL)
{
local.p.origin = local.origin
local.respawned = 1
}

local.floor = spawn script_model
local.floor.origin = local.p.origin
local.floor notsolid
local.floor droptofloor

local.dropper = spawn trigger_use "targetname" "object"
local.dropper model local.model
local.dropper.origin = local.p.origin
local.dropper.angles = local.p.angles
local.dropper setsize ( -X -Y -Z ) ( X Y Z )
local.dropper solid
local.dropper setthread pickit

local.dropper nottriggerable

local.dropper speed 50 //change if too fast or too slow
local.dropper moveto local.floor
local.dropper waitmove

local.dropper triggerable

if (local.respawned != 1)
{
iprintlnbold "The object has been dropped!"
}
else 
{
iprintlnbold "The object has been respawned at his original position!"
}

waitframe 
local.floor immediateremove

end

Great scr, but whats setsize for simple not pulsating mohaa explosives?

..and how can in println player name?

[$oldier Of Ra]

For the explosive this will suffice: ( -10 -10 -10 ) ( 10 10 10 )

If you plan on using this in BT you can access the player name with .netname. If you plan on using it in SH, you need a BT-to-SH converted gamex86.dll file so you can use the .netname function in SH.

Without the converted .dll, you cannot get the player's name in SH and unfortunately in AA there's no way nor workaround to get it.

So if you use this in BT or a fixed SH game use this to print it:

iprintln (local.p.netname + " your text")

[Aprop]

I fortunatelly use BT its awesome engine...

btw "()" is not needed, i always print text like:

Code: Select all

iprintln " player " local.p.netname " dropped " local.object.model " at " local.p.origin

its clearlier and easier.

Well the engine must use a bit more memory to read simplified syntax

I doubt players will be able to tell where the object has fallen by using an origin and also it will be printed like this:
( 322.5500 -55.0068 150.3302 )
This'll take a lot of space in your print.

bit more memory... so it slow down fps?
btw may script (without spawn and printin, etc) affect fps?

[$oldier Of Ra]

If too much simplified syntax is used and a script is working with very fast loops, many weaponcommands or many entities commands etc... then it can lag, sometimes lag very hard. But don't worry, this script is far from lag

[Rookie One.pl]

What do you mean by "simplified syntax"? As far as I know, the script parser doesn't differentiate between any types of syntax, it only has a very elastic (really, very elastic) set of rules that makes it very easy to make logical mistakes and extremely hard to debug. It also allows for C/C++-like strict programming as well as non-strict programming.

One such rule is that any token which is not quoted and not recognized as a keyword (or an identifier, or an operator) is evaluated as a string. This sometimes makes sense, but most of the time it doesn't.
