Destroyed Village Random Explosions

[LiTe]

What I would like to do is add some explosions to hit the ditches in destroyed village. Can anyone help me with this? Not like give me a complete script but to show me how to do this so I feel like I'm doing a little of the scripting. It would also help me to understand more about the scripts.

[bdbodger]

There are lots of random explosion posts do a search for them .

I saw yours on tmt forums, but I liked tltrude's anims and sounds better. But I can't get it to work with mohdm2.scr . This is what I have right now and there too many errors to count.

Well lots of things you could change .

spawn script_origin "origin" ( -1063 -2952.20 -107.29) "targetname" random_explode1

targetname should be with quotes

spawn script_origin "origin" ( -1063 -2952.20 -107.29) "targetname" "random_explode1"


$random_exploder = " what is this for ?

thread random_explode1 You should make a new thread name

$random_explode1_origin playsound leadinmp
$random_explode1 playsound leadinmp

wait (randomfloat 13 + 16)
wait randomfloat(13)+16

$random_exploder anim start // uses animate fx_explosion_dirt
Did you add $random_exploder's in mohradiant ? They all have the same targetname in all the threads . so they form a targetname array $random_exploder[1] $random_exploder[2] etc I would not do it in mohradiant I would use the global/model.scr

random_explode1:

wait randomfloat(13)+16
$random_explode1 playsound leadinmp
wait 1
exec global/model.scr $random_explode1.origin models/emitters/explosion_bombdirt.tik // you can add a scale number to the end of this if you want
radiusdamage $random_explode1.origin 256 384
goto random_explode1

end

Okay, I think I did everything you suggested and I understood most of it. This is my script so far but it still doesn't work.

Anyone out there?

[nuggets]

if you create a log of your console it'll tell you where your errors are,

i, is the script running at all, does it say "DESTROYED VILLAGE" in the objectives?

ii, you have a goto random_explode12 at the end of thread random_explode 2, don't know if this is the main problem but it won't help

iii) i'd change your //*** to something else as // comments out the line,
but /* comments out and area until it reads */ this may be causing problems

iv) other than that i can't see anymore problems but that's where the log will help

I got it to work with a few adjustments but for some reason I can't get the radiusdamage to work hmm strange .

[LiTe]

HEY! it works fine...except I don't hear the leadin wav and I don't take any damage. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

[omniscient]

looks like ur talkin to urself, so i figured id reply. i have no idea why it doesnt work as scripting is like spanish to me. u may want to check just to make sure u didnt misspell something.

[LiTe]

Omniscent-

Thanks for the idea but I don't think so. bdbodger is a more experienced scripter than I am and he's having trouble figuring out what's wrong. I doubt it's a spelling error since atleast two people have looked at the current script and found no spelling errors.

[jv_map]

mohaa can find spelling errors much better and faster than you do and it will drop a message in the console when you've misspelled something

Anyway try this:

radiusdamage ($random_explode1.origin + (0 0 64)) 500 500

[LiTe]

LoL. Thanks, that cleared everything up. I have a few more questions. Is it possible to change the amount of light in a level through scripting? Like make it cloudier or something like that? Also, whats the model for fire?

Thanks alot jv_map and bdbodger and everyone else
