I give you The One, The Only, GBK's Slowmo controller.

Code:

# Basic slowmo controller.
#
# 09/2002 GBK
Symbols
Message Activated
Int S=0			Local
End
Code
Activated:
If(S) { S=0;
Print("Slowmo off");
Cleardebugmodeflags(0x400); }
Else { S=1;
Print("Slowmo on");
Setdebugmodeflags(0x400); }
Stop;
End

Yes, it works. SP and MP. You dont like it? Too bad. I like it.

Oh, and yes, this will be in the GBK tools...

Is this like your jerky motion cog? I can't wait to use/look at your tools. It seems you come up with every cog I want/need, before I can even try/ask. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

Jerky motion? No, this cog enables and disables slowmo. IE, typing "Slowmo on/off" in the console... Only, this is bount to a hotkey, and is instantly toggleable.

My bad, you said "'blurry world' cog". But still, do you mean by 'blurry world'?

I see. Won't that cause HOM? Or really slow down the older machines?

Bolth, actully. But its a translucency HOM, so it doesnt look as bad. Not very useful, but interesting nonetheless.

GBK, when you turn slowmo on with your cog, you might give the player some extra speed, a faster turning speed, less mass, more surface / static drag, a powerboost, etc. Then the player would be able to move and act something closer to normal when the game is running in slow motion.

Doing something like that would also improve a matrix-like mod. The 0x400 Debug Mode Flag could be set on all computers, but some players would be able to move and fire more quickly than the others. Since all computers would be running in slow motion, their objects would stay in sync.

In a game where one computer did not have the flag, projectiles would move slowly on all computers except the one without the flag. This would create unacceptable discrepancies.

What SaberMaster suggests MUST be done. This is what I was talking about. Without it, slowmo would be kind of useless...
