Graal Orbital System thing
 

I made this orbital thing spontaneously after forgetting to alter this.y in a circle script....added onto it from there ;)

If you want to see it better (Bad video quality) It's still on N-Pulse.


No I'm not posting the script....

are all those people not walking?

They're being moved by script.

Note: Yes I know about the idling issue, I plan to add a failsafe or something of the like.

That's really cool dude.

Whoa, pretty sick :cool:.

Looks really nice man. Was impressed when i saw it on NP.

Wouldn't it be cool if Zone's planets were on an actual orbit..

Took long enough to see a post like that :P


Can't really post a vid like this without someone wanting to add it on their server ;)

Ya but then when you go to planet selection they'll be spinning and hard to click on to go to that planet :frown:.

Fun :D

It would be better if the planets on Zone actually rotated!

I felt sorry for the deer. :(

That deer had it coming.

Not very many posts on this forum topic...

Just curious.. What did you mean by this post? :o

I actually wanted to see how long it would take for someone to say something like that, lol.

I got a funny image of some discoordinated nerd trying painstakingly to click on a zone planet and missing every time it moved.

Would be nice if we can use it on Zone. Imagine Zone players floating around when in the planet selection hehe.

Might be quite nice. Unfortunately, he's unwilling to share the script, so I'm sure you could script something similar, Dan :)

I don't think it's that complicated a script.

It seems like this script would be right up your street. You're good at pulling off cool effects. I'd have no idea where to start.

Just plug in a few physics formulas and move things accordingly.

To me, it's easier said than done. I don't have a mathematical mind. Something I plan on changing soon.

It's not, here's the central formula:

this.x = this.centerx - temp.radiusx * sin(temp.alpha);
this.y = this.centery - temp.radiusy * cos(temp.alpha);

Basic circle script.

temp.alpha for sin/cos?

So it's just a convenient effect and not running off of mass, velocity and such?

No need to get that advanced, really.

With sprites that big no but it'd be cool with tiny images a whole little universe of things rotating around eachother and randomly spawned projectiles.

I thought it was based on mass and what not.

Up a bit he said it was a basic circle script.

lol, that's just your eye's messing with your head.
