Normals on my model are not recalulated that why you can see this black shadow on edges. Sorry for that, here is fix:

Here is a recent request from Belblind
I would like to see it done better. Add a light or a particle system to it (only there is no model)
Make for some method of stopping a player from walking through it?
-probably use a floor texture as a blockage. Have the blockage destroyed upon pickup.
Scripts for the socket, and floor blockages as well.
I'm going to see if I can't make them glow.
Code: Select all
defineObject{
name = "floating_sword_socket",
class = "Alcove",
anchorPos = vec(0, 1.1, -1.0),
anchorRotation = vec(90,0,90),
targetPos = vec(0, 1.1, -0.38),
targetSize = vec(0, 0, 0),
placement = "wall",
editorIcon = 92,
}
defineObject{
name = "dungeon_floor_blockage",
class = "Blockage",
model = "assets/models/env/dungeon_floor_01.fbx",
placement = "floor",
repelProjectiles = true,
hitSound = "impact_blade",
editorIcon = 56,
}
defineObject{
name = "temple_floor_blockage",
class = "Blockage",
model = "assets/models/env/temple_floor_01.fbx",
placement = "floor",
repelProjectiles = true,
hitSound = "impact_blade",
editorIcon = 56,
}
defineObject{
name = "prison_floor_blockage",
class = "Blockage",
model = "assets/models/env/prison_floor_01.fbx",
placement = "floor",
repelProjectiles = true,
hitSound = "impact_blade",
editorIcon = 56,
}
EDIT: Changed the anchorPos.
NOTE: With an alcove it is impossible to have the item in the center of the square and still be retrievable.
I have sent a query to the devs on this matter.

For the Key behind the wall drainage no code is required. I pulled it off early on by placing the key on the near side of the square behind it. Much like a pad on the far side of a portcullis. Works just fine. Not sure if you can place items thru though,...some sort of "feed the rats" puzzle trigger with a 2 sec item teleporter connected?

I'm a bit in hurry, so it's not exactly perfect, you can put in everything. I'll tweak in that way -maybe- later!
Man you guys are awesome. Here's my first attempt at a Lua script. I modded it so it only accepts keys:
Code: Select all
defineObject{
name = "dungeon_wall_drainage_alcove",
model = "assets/models/env/dungeon_wall_drainage.fbx",
class = "Alcove",
anchorPos = vec(0, 0.00, 0.5),
targetPos = vec(0, 0.1, 0),
targetSize = vec(0.3, 0.2, 0.1),
placement = "wall",
replacesWall = true,
editorIcon = 92,
onInsertItem = function(self, item)
i, j = string.find(item.name, "_key")
return (i ~= nil) and (j == string.len(item.name)) and (self:getItemCount() == 0)
end,
}
I've coded in BASIC, Pascal, Ada, C, Java, Perl, and Ruby, but Lua is one weird animal...

I've started compiling the in-game model alcoves into a single .lua file
I have to go to work now, so I'll put it up later.
There are 24 alcoves in it.

does this file contain all (or most) of the alcoves in this topic?

I have a question for your code, can you explain me what this does?
i, j = string.find(item.name, "_key")
return (i ~= nil) and (j == string.len(item.name))
there is a lot of stuff I've never seen, so I'm pretty confused about these:
i, j = ...
string.find (for this one the name of the function explain everything, but how it works?)
string.len
thank you!

See:
http://lua-users.org/wiki/StringLibraryTutorial
s:len() --Return the length of the string passed.
s:find(pattern [, init [, plain]]) -- Find the first occurance of the pattern in the string passed. If an instance of the pattern is found a pair of values representing the start and end of the string is returned. If the pattern cannot be found nil is returned.

It's basically checking that (a) the pattern was found and (b) the pattern is at the very end of the name. It lets the alcove accept only object types ending in "_key".

ok got it. I did not understand that string.find gives two results. Thank you!
