This sounds a lot like Paradox-01's "Project Imago" script, btw.

Re: Special Force Mod

lol wtf?? anyways, its for this reason why this mod will take awhile, and i dont expect round the clock work on it, but every bug we get past makes this easier

hmm, i can't see anything wrong, send me what you got and ill try a few things, two heads are better than one

also, does your cloak function work more than once?

Oh I haven't tested the cloak function.  Sec...

And be sure to send me your BINACHAR also, so it'll actually work

Re: Special Force Mod

Alright here's the script I did:

func void cloak(void)
{
    if (cloakregen eq 0)
    {
    dmsg ("Phase Cloak Recharging...")
    }
    if (cloakregen eq 1)
    {
    chr_givepowerup st invis 900
    cloakregen = 0;
    dmsg ("Phase Cloak Engaged.")
    sleep 3600
    cloakregen = 1;
    dmsg ("Phase Cloak Ready.")
    }
}

For some reason, though, if I have any function or chain of functions that changes the same variable back and forth, the second change doesn't take effect.  So the first time I type "cloak" it works, then every time after that it just says "Phase Cloak Recharging..." even if it's been well past a minute.  I had the same problem with OZG.

Also here's everything you need to see what I'm seeing.

Re: Special Force Mod

It's giving me scrolling BS in dev mode sumthin about ai2_setmovementmode not being able to engage without ai2_takecontrol = 1

i think that Konko not following has to do with the fact that she doesnt have a movement mode (since she was never meant to be taken over AI) so im gonna try stuff with that command and see what happens. I think if instead you spawned Evil_konoko instead of konoko, it would work, since she was meant to be AI

Re: Special Force Mod

True, it would probably work if all the characters were AI to begin with, but we'd have to rewrite a lot of script in that case.

Also, when I'm the sniper I don't have a crosshair and the AI still shoots (but doesn't aim) if there's an enemy in field.

Edit:  Also, put co_display=0 in the beginning of the BSL to get rid of that junk.  I know, it does it for me too but I keep forgetting to put that in.

Re: Special Force Mod

Man...  I'm having way too many problems with this.  It's not as easy as I thought.  Game keeps crashing and stuff.

I think I'll just start trying to come up with ideas of what to do to make the levels harder, like where to add enemies and stuff, and writing those ideas down.  Hopefully we can figure out these problems eventually.

Re: Special Force Mod

okay thanks, im trying to give each of the characters there own follow function, like this

func void follow(void)
{
if (kon eq 1)
  {
  ai2_setmovementmode sn run
  ai2_setmovementmode st run
  ai2_setmovementmode hv run
  ai2_followme st
  ai2_followme sn
  ai2_followme hv
  sleep 300
  fork follow
  }
if (sni eq 1)
  {
  ai2_setmovementmode kon run
  ai2_setmovementmode st run
  ai2_setmovementmode hv run
  ai2_followme st
  ai2_followme kon
  ai2_followme hv
  sleep 300
  fork follow
  }
}

]

also, whever my squad members start combat, it screws me up and locks up, doesnt even bother to blam me D:

we should at least give evil kon a try to see if it works, if it does then at leastwe have that to fall back on, and were gonna end up re-writing alot of the levls anyway to make em harder

Re: Special Force Mod

Yeah it's locking up a lot for me too.  And the AI gun control problem is significant I feel.  Hope there's a way around that.

I doubt they're working on it now, but maybe with the after-next AE/daodan/whatever is convenient the powers-that-be here could implement more effective character-switching functionality?

Re: Special Force Mod

plzzz 0_0

anyways, we also need to set the snipers health, you gave him additional, but it goes right back down again

working on giving a steady stream of ammo to sniper, but it blammed me

func void ammo (void)
{
chr_givepowerup sn ammo 1
chr_givepowerup sn cell 1
sleep 2700
fork ammo
}

Re: Special Force Mod

You don't have to do that, I have him set up for infinite ammo in the BINACHAR.  I think that's really the best way to do it IMO.

Re: Special Force Mod

meh, sure

okay, im going to give a try at evil konoko instead, we'll see how that works out

well okay, i havent done it yet, ive been tying other stuff, but i think the reason for all the lock ups is because of particles, notice it only locks up when theres suppoed to be a impact flash for a special move? My suggestion would be to create all new characters for this mod (samer can maybe deal with outfits?) and take out the trail particles for her team

Re: Special Force Mod

Its possible that Konoko won't follow you is because of the IsPlayer flag in the BINACHAR.  You might want to add another version of Konoko in the BINACHAR and use that one. 

The IsPlayer version, you could teleport somewhere far away.

Just a thought.

again

nope not in BINACHAR.... maybe in ONCC?

Re: Special Force Mod

yeah i was looknig at the wrong one

anyways, me and Leus have been chatting on skype for a good part of the day and have gotten someplaces

so by spawning an evil konoko, switching focus and teleporting the original out, we made konoko able to follow us

also I fixed the problem of the phase cloak not being able to b used more than once

Re: Special Force Mod

Yeah I tried work-arounds like that in OZG but it still didn't work, it seemed like any function or string of functions that changed the variable back and forth just didn't work.  It just changed it one way and wouldn't change it back.  But this seems to be working so that's pretty sweet.

Another problem we ran into, though, if anyone has any idea:  When controlling this AI Konoko, we can't dash.  We can dash on all the other characters, but not Konoko.

Re: Special Force Mod

My guess is she simply doesn't have a dash function, i'm sure theres a way to fix this in the ONCC, but if anyone knows differently, please say so
