| 17:29.11 | mrapplecomputer1 | hmm i need some help with turrets |
| 17:29.18 | mrapplecomputer1 | i have 6 turrets on each side of the map |
| 17:29.21 | mrapplecomputer1 | 6 for blue |
| 17:29.23 | mrapplecomputer1 | 6 for red |
| 17:29.26 | mrapplecomputer1 | red works fine |
| 17:29.29 | mrapplecomputer1 | but blue not so much |
| 17:29.41 | mrapplecomputer1 | you have to be facing backwards to get them to fire at red base |
| 17:29.44 | mrapplecomputer1 | ideas? |
| 17:30.20 | mrapplecomputer1 | heres the code: http://pastebin.com/d71b617aa |
| 17:30.57 | mrapplecomputer1 | if you need me say mrapplecomputer1 come here! |
| 17:35.06 | blast007 | tried switching the angleExtent around for blue? |
| 17:35.32 | mrapplecomputer1 | blast007: yep |
| 17:35.45 | mrapplecomputer1 | blast007: ill try again but i switched the - and the + |
| 17:35.50 | blast007 | k |
| 17:35.59 | blast007 | probably not it then |
| 17:36.17 | blast007 | have a link to the plugin? |
| 17:37.27 | mrapplecomputer1 | now the turrets dont work at all in the blue base |
| 17:37.45 | mrapplecomputer1 | blast007: i downloaded a compiled .so and it works, red bases is firing lazers :D |
| 17:38.00 | blast007 | there's a 'rotation' option for the zones |
| 17:38.03 | mrapplecomputer1 | should i be switching the tiltExtent as well? |
| 17:38.08 | mrapplecomputer1 | i tried rotation |
| 17:38.10 | mrapplecomputer1 | no cigar |
| 17:38.14 | blast007 | what value did you try? |
| 17:38.20 | mrapplecomputer1 | rotation 180 |
| 17:38.25 | mrapplecomputer1 | or for tilt? |
| 17:38.36 | blast007 | no, for rot |
| 17:38.46 | mrapplecomputer1 | yah i did rotation 180 |
| 17:39.21 | blast007 | not sure then |
| 17:39.38 | mrapplecomputer1 | hmmmm |
| 17:40.20 | blast007 | I haven't personally used the plugin |
| 17:40.53 | mrapplecomputer1 | hmmm |
| 17:41.11 | mrapplecomputer1 | you see i tried everything you said, common sense, and cant figure it out...... hmmmm |
| 17:41.35 | mrapplecomputer1 | i did read the readme too :P |
| 17:41.37 | mrapplecomputer1 | nothing there |
| 17:45.11 | mrapplecomputer1 | one other question |
| 17:45.15 | mrapplecomputer1 | lets say i have a box |
| 17:45.19 | mrapplecomputer1 | position 0 0 0 |
| 17:45.24 | mrapplecomputer1 | size 5 5 10 |
| 17:45.36 | mrapplecomputer1 | and i want to put a texture turret on it? |
| 17:45.42 | mrapplecomputer1 | how do i make it so you can drive over it |
| 17:45.48 | mrapplecomputer1 | but it doesnt like flash |
| 17:46.07 | blast007 | texture turret? |
| 17:46.13 | mrapplecomputer1 | well any box really |
| 17:46.31 | mrapplecomputer1 | if you put it at the same z value it like flashes |
| 17:46.59 | blast007 | what is a texture turret? |
| 18:01.46 | mrapplecomputer1 | arg they arent woring!!!! ahahahahahahha |
| 18:05.40 | mrapplecomputer1 | i have tried rotating everything |
| 18:05.43 | mrapplecomputer1 | hmmmmmmmmm |
| 18:09.28 | mrapplecomputer1 | hmm blast look at what the debug printed out |
| 18:09.31 | mrapplecomputer1 | Turret - DEBUG: ---- Handling object: TURRETWEAPON ---- |
| 18:09.31 | mrapplecomputer1 | Turret - WARNING: Unknown property rotation, skipping. |
| 18:09.45 | blast007 | it doesn't go in the weapon |
| 18:09.47 | blast007 | it goes in the zone |
| 18:09.51 | mrapplecomputer1 | i know i tried that too |
| 18:09.59 | blast007 | you need it in the zone |
| 18:10.13 | blast007 | and then you need to adjust whatever makes the weapon only shoot in certain directions |
| 18:10.59 | mrapplecomputer1 | i tried all of that |
| 18:11.07 | mrapplecomputer1 | i added the rotation, doesnt tchange a thing |
| 18:11.35 | blast007 | I don't know |
| 18:11.43 | mrapplecomputer1 | i think i need to modify something in the weapons tilitExt and angleExt |
| 18:11.54 | blast007 | find out what they mean exactly |
| 18:11.58 | blast007 | dive into the code |
| 18:12.00 | blast007 | or the readme |
| 18:18.35 | mrapplecomputer1 | omg i got it to work! :D |
| 18:18.57 | mrapplecomputer1 | blast007: i changed every blue one to this |
| 18:18.59 | mrapplecomputer1 | tiltExtent -360 360 |
| 18:18.59 | mrapplecomputer1 | angleExtent -360 360 |
| 18:19.07 | mrapplecomputer1 | now i just need to get the right angles put it.... |
| 18:30.55 | mrapplecomputer1 | i think this is what i need but i dont understand it (x- = 180, y+ = 270, y- = 90). |
| 19:14.52 | mrapplecomputer1 | i still can not figure this out :| |
