Question!
 

Hello folks,

How to get the angle that my projectile is shot with inside the gani? Ehh.. what I mean is:

1. I use:
temp.a = getangle( vecx( player.dir), vecy( player.dir));
shoot( player.x, player.y, player.z, temp.a, 0, 0, "e_spell_fireball", "");

2. What I now want is getting the angle that I shot with, inside the
e_spell_fireball.gani's script.. like:
SCRIPT
findImg( 1).text = gani.angle;
SCRIPTEND
Should show a message with the angle...

Anyone can help me?

Hummm I need some help... !! :P

This is coming from the person who managed to script perfectly lagless baddies?

P.S. params, retard.

No, actually, a friend of mine (Drakilor) scripted them for him. He made even more ownage baddies on Mythic.

I was being sarcastic.
If your baddy is active and using less than .0004% of the server, something's wrong.

Or they are clientside. (Although I suppose that would fall into the 'something's wrong' category)

Noobnoob
 

Lol, actually.. this Drakilor guy didn't, Ziro... he only made the Endora baddies less laggy. (which he did by removing or changing less than 5 lines..) The Esteria baddies are entirely new.

When do people stop talking **** so fast, while they don't even know wheater its true or false! ^^

I added temp.angle before, instead of "" in the shooting part.. then I setted the rotation of the particles to params[ 0] and it refused to work =P

Echo params[0] and see if it set right. If it didn't, then that's your problem. If it did, then post some particle code.

Step 1 --> shoot( player.x, player.y, player.z, temp.a, 0, 0, spell.anim, temp.a);
Step 2 --> Inside the gani (e_spellball_fireball.gani): echo( params[ 0]);
Step 3 --> Pressing F2 and seeing nothing!

Any comments?

Ps. It's not that temp.a isn't loading or so (I also tested with this., thiso., etc..).

Are you sure echo() works in a gani? You could try to set the players chat to params[0].

I did echo( "Debug: " @ params[ 0]); and all that showed up was "Debug:"... so yes it works ;)

The problem's in the way you scripted the gani. GG.

Then give me an example of what would work please? :)

Ehh.. no one knows how? :S

I've decided I'm going to boycott helping anyone who uses that annoying and pointless style where you put a space between the opening parenthesis and the first parameter, but leave the last parameter intact with the closing parenthesis. (or in the extreme cases, do it for array indices aswell.)
