Setup script examples

Adding a tree with a starting level of 2 (need to level up once to plant the root)

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

a = AddAsteroidWithAttribs(4600,-4600, 0.3,0.6,0.6)
a.Owner = 1
s = a:AddDysonTree()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()

Add a tree with a flower or mine

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

a = AddAsteroidWithAttribs(4600,-4600, 0.3,0.6,0.6)
a.Owner = 1
-- add a flower on a dyson tree
s = a:AddDysonTree()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
flower = s:AddFlower()
flower:GrowToMax()
-- add a mine on a defense tree
s = a:AddDefenseTree()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
flower = s:AddFlower()
flower:GrowToMax()


Add a superseedling tree

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

a = AddAsteroidWithAttribs(4600,-4600, 0.3,0.6,0.6)
a.Owner = 1
s = a:AddDysonTree()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s:LevelUp()
s.Enhanced = true


Have an asteroid with superseedlings on it at the start

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

a = AddAsteroidWithAttribs(4600,-4600, 0.3,0.6,0.6)
a.Owner = 1
a:AddSuperSeedlings(50)


Level logic examples


Adding a scripted section of a fixed duration:

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

timeNow = GetGameTime()

while GetGameTime() < timeNow + 10 do

coroutine.yield()

end

-- This script runs for ten seconds.


Of course, you can also check the time any other point e.g.

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

winGame = false
timedSeedlingRelease = GetGameTime()
asteroid = GetAsteroid(1) -- assume we know for sure asteroid 1 exists

while not wingame do

if GetGameTime() > timedSeedlingRelease + 5 then
asteroid:AddSeedlings(1)
timedSeedlingRelease = GetGameTime()
end

coroutine.yield()

end

-- releases a seedling every five seconds to asteroid 1


Drawing examples

Here's a code block that shows some stuff being drawn in the level draw routine, including drawing stuff at a fixed size on screen, checking to see if something is on the screen and levels of detail:

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]


function LevelDraw()

DrawLine(0,0,1000,1200,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,3)

l = 0
while l < 2*math.pi do

DrawTexLine(2, 0,0,math.sin(l)*100,math.cos(l)*100, 1,0.5,0,1,0.7,0.1,0,1, 1)

l = l + math.pi/5
end

if IsOnScreen(0,0,500) then
a = GetLODAlpha(2)
if a > 0 then

DrawSprite(5, -500,0, 0.7,0.1,0,a*0.98, 100)

end
a = GetLODAlpha(1)
if a > 0 then

DrawSprite(5, -500,0, 0.1,0.7,0,a*0.98, 500)

end
a = GetLODAlpha(0)
if a > 0 then

DrawSprite(5, -500,0, 0.1,0.0,0.7,a*0.98, 50/GetCameraScale())

end
end
end

callback examples

oneshot asteroid taken script example

(click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

enemyActivated = false

--Activates the enemy if still dormant, once th eplayer gets close enough.
function OnAsteroidTaken(id, owner)
if (id == 10 or id == 11) and enemyActivated then
GetAsteroid(7): SetGraceTime(1)
GetAsteroid(8): SetGraceTime(1)
GetAsteroid(9): SetGraceTime(1)
GetAsteroid(12): SetGraceTime(1)
enemyActivated = true
end
end

So did you just forget to add the code to your post or something?  :>

[Rudolf]

No it is all there under the spoiler buttons.
Does this now work for you?

[annikk.exe]

Not seeing any spoiler buttons...
I don't think this is merely a graphical bug because when I quote the OP, there is still no code in there.

I administer an SMF-based forum for the band Angelspit.  If you have access to the admin panel, check the member rank permissions - maybe I am erroneously not allowed to see spoiler'd stuff or something? :>

I'll go update my browser and flash and java and so on in the mean time, in case it's that.  Win XP, Firefox, incidentally.

[Rudolf]

Hmm I think you may have been right...
Which would explain why so few user levels have been made.... :-(

Try again.. see if that is better..

[annikk.exe]

Working now ^_^

[Harsha]

Hey non members will not be able to see the spoiler buttons at all.. Is that okay?

[Eufloria Admin]

Fixed.

[Lonnie Soter]

I do not see!   

[Mihhaelo]

Are you using Chrome to view the forums? The spoiler buttons never have seemed to work in chrome. You could try using a different browser to see if that helps?

[hitman271]

you could just not use spoilers

[annikk.exe]

The Spoiler mod in use on these forums is 0.6a.
The latest version is 0.7.2a.

It's not clear whether the newer version supports Chrome or not, however it might be worth a try upgrading it..?

Alex/Rudolf do you want me to try upgrading?  I will of course take a backup first in case anything goes wrong.  :>

I've noticed that the height of code block frames get reduced to one line when they're nested within spoiler tags, so you have to scroll through the code with only one line being visible at a time (which is why I usually just copy & paste it to a text editor if I want to read it).

I'm using Safari, but since both Chrome and Safari use Webkit I wouldn't be surprised if fixing the problem on one of these browsers would fix it on the other.
