Cogs needed!
2001-03-18, 2:52 PM #1
Hi, does anyone have time to make me a couple of cogs for my multiplayer level, I'm think there pretty straight forward.
1. On entering sector - delete that players weapons (except saber).
2. I'm not sure if this one's possible, anyway - to be able to alter the gravity in a given sector - say from 1 to 10.
I have no idea how to even start programing these so I'm hoping you can help!
....Cheers

Lucky if you catch some people to do.

Hasn't been tested. So, if it doesn't work, e-mail me. There is a similar cog written by Obsidian. Here. It's much better. I think it even allows weapon reactivation. Not sure.

Yeah, It was worth a try though.

For the gravity question, you could use the "SetGravity" verb:

>>Sets the world gravity

>>Use: SetGravity(flex);


But this will apply to the whole level. I suppose you could just trigger it with the entered message on the sector in question, but that might adversely affect the rest of your level.....

Also, if this is for MOTS, one of the early levels had a few sectors with zero gravity. Perhaps you could use that cog.
