The death camera...

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Is there any way to disable it? I have this snazzy idea for the camera to pan up and away from the player, letting you poor saps watch yourself get trampled by Gran. *snickers* The problem is, the death cam takes over, and all I get is the message I put in for test purposes.

Try this...



Damaged:
If(Getparam(0) >= Getthinghealth(Player))

Returnex(0);

//Camera code here...


Stop;

You also need to move the player, and replace it with a dummy and play the killed key. GBK's code would just make the player invulerable.

You do mean the first part, don't you? Or is it the second, because you don't like being upstaged. I just like reminding people what they have to do. Most times, its the simple, easy things you forget. http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif

I was talking about TheTwistedSpam forgeting, not you GBK. http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif PS no one does like typing out code for that.

Thanks. I do wanna know, why do I have to create a dummy? Is it because of the ReturnEx(0), which means that the game doesn't know the player's dead? In that case, what if I were to use this in multi? Would I have to cog in the scoring? Lastly, what about the killed message? Does that not get called?

Ok, that was three or four questions more than I planned to ask. Danged train of thought! Sorry.

GBK, I don't like saying those words, so I won't say them. The dummy, that is so you can use the panning camera, watching the player die. ReturnEx(0); just makes the player invurnerable. So, in order to help you further, is this JK or MotS?
