Hi,
I try to make Particle Component on altar and I need create this component by script in different heigth. Is there some possibility for inscript changing position of this particle?
In Log1 was property translate in FX object, but in LOG2 I dont find similar property.
What it means ParticleComponent:getSortOffset() ? solved this property my problem?

As it's a normal entity you could probably mess with getWorldPosition () and setWorldPosition ().

Thank you, but this function worked separately for particle component?
Base object must be in same position all time.

Add something like "offset = vec(0, 1, 0)" to particle component's definition.

Yeah, it's on our TODO-list but it'll take quite a bit of work since there's a lot of content we have to sort through. We just can't take a copy of our asset folders and put it in a zip file

Sorry mate I don't understand what you are saying ahy? You should have them already you guys made the game.....
EDIT: I could be wrong here but I think you guys were not prepared for the onslaught of the editor, and as for game testers did you actually use anyone else besides your team?? If not bad move. Most DEVS use outside testers to see if their game works eg: when a player gets a Skype message or presses certain key to check something else thats happening in their world lol. I have seen the bugs and to be honest you really need to get outside game testers before release ahy. Once again as in many games I have played I asked the same questions and got the reply: No we tested in house... They also had the same problems you have had sorry to be a pain but that's how games fall. This I do know. I have been playing games since 1977. Thxs for you time

In the meantime, as a workaround: do you think you can implement an option to dump object to array (or set of arrays) which then can be printed out for reference ? No assets, just definition. Usual function that prints tables isn't working:
Code: Select all
function tprint (tbl, indent)
if not indent then indent = 0
end
for k, v in pairs(tbl) do
formatting = string.rep(" ", indent) .. k .. ": "
if type(v) == "table" then
print(formatting)
tprint(v, indent+1)
else
print(formatting .. v)
end
end
end
I've tried that with console:
sb = spawn("short_bow")
script_entity_1.script.tprint(sb) but nothing happens.
Maybe i should try doing it with GameObject:getComponent(name) to save every component into array ?
:EDIT: I think something is wrong with my tprint function, because:
value sb clearly is a table

Not sure what problems you are referring to...? An yes, we test in-house and we also had a closed beta test
