Custom bombs / images?

[Alpho]

Hi i'm trying to create a custom bomb system on Esteria and I was wondering how I could customize putbomb? I tried Putbomb2 and it seems to only place a shadow. Any ideas? thanks!

Edit:
Script help for 'putbomb2':
TServerLevel.putbomb2(int, float, float, str) - adds a classic bomb with the specified power, x, y and image (default bomb1.png)

When trying that, when I try making it our bomb image, it defaults to a shadow.

Are you calling it on the server-side?

Please post your actual code so we can help debug it for you.

Well for now, i'm just trying a normal bomb onCreated,

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
   putbomb2("bomb1.png",30,30);
} 


edit, sorry heres my script:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE 
function onCreated() { 
   putbomb2(2,30,30, "bomb1.png"); 
}

I believe putbomb2 version you're trying to use is server-side only.

Try:

PHP Code:

function onActionServerSide() {
  if (params[0] == "bomb") {
    // This should work
    player.level.putbomb2(2, 30, 30, "bomb1.png");
    // This also might work
    putbomb2(2, 30, 32, "bomb1.png");
  }
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  triggerserver("gui", this.name, "bomb");
}

Your script actually works clientside, thank you!

Great.

Please post the final working script for others who may have the issue in the future.

Or for even more customization you can make a class for each bomb and lay a class in the level and have it wait a few seconds and the bomb explodes

Which is overkill if the default system suits your needs.

Ugliest bomb system known to man, and they don't even predict the bomb placement clientside. Even my custom bomb system did that on Graal 2.17.

gg, iPhone scripters.
