Aircraft Carrier

[kev|GER]

Hello everyone,

First, I've searched and searched looking for it and didn't found it. I need a script of some working Aircraft Carrier.

I'm a noob at scripting, and I'm trying to learn it. Ofc, as all other guys, I prefer ask for the script instead of try make one. But I can give it a try.

I need the script for a public server I'm trying to create. I've played in other server and I saw that they, somehow, created it.

I downloaded a resource in mta page, but just can't get it working and, for what I read, it's not that good.

So, if possible, give me a link or something for I download.

I can give a try and script it, but I just don't know what functions and other things I must use and learn.

Till now, I've created a GUI (which is the way I wanna control it) whit GUI Creator resource. After that, don't know what's next. I know I must create the objects, but don't know how move them all together, and how to put it being controlled by GUI.

Sorry for my bad English. Thanks.

[Callum]

Possibly this?

[kev|GER]

Ye, that was the one I tried, but just can't put it working. And in comments people are complaining a bit about it, so don't think it really works well.

Make a carrier is easy, seriosly, make the map.

get the id of the elevator, then "moveObject"

i will search if i still have my one, if i still have i will give it to you :DD

Thanks for reply mate. I know how to do that, but I want a drivable carrier, not just the elevator.

Just attach the carrier to a boat

[karlis]

and id recommend to attach some corner-boats to mother-boat too, for stability

[kev|GER]

Can u please explain me how to do that? And what after that? How I move the carrier up and down, to right and left ? And how I can, after have the functions done, "redirect" them to the gui that I've created?

Thanks for reply.

[kev|GER]

Some help please?

[kev|GER]

Okay, I got the attachment thingy. Now I'd like to do something like

moveCarrierForward = moveObjectToTarget ( nameOfObject, numberOfPixelsUp, NumberOfPixelsDown, left right and rotations etc.)

I can't find the command. I know the moveObject one but it will fail I think cause it moves the a location given, I dont wanna that. Then, I wont do it by GUI. I want to do something like

addCommandHandler ( "carrierforward, moveCarrierForward )

and all the other commands.

So, what I need to know it's what are the commands to do it. Thanks a lot.

Btw, if possible, after I've the script finished if some1 can help me putting it into a GUI,cuz whit commands it takes more time and stuff.

Script atm:

If you expect your hangar to only go forwards you could use timers with moveObject, so that everytime the point has been reached, a new one is set according to ships rotation etc..

I've played in other server and I saw that they, somehow, created it.

We have special vehicles in DKR you can control, hot air balloons, rockets and hangar ships, did you see it there?

Cause I am pretty sure we attach hangar objects to an invisible tropic by command.

I didn't seen it there. But I'll try play there and see how it is.

Can u release the scripts ? Or give me the short part about that timer and the way it will know the ships rotation etc. I'd be really appreciate.

[kev|GER]

So, I tried attach the boat to the carrier and when I droved the boat, the ship didn't move.

HEres the script

[AeroXbird]

Maybe the objects are blocking the boats movement?

[kev|GER]

No,

THe boat is moving, the carrier isn't. Thats the problem.

[50p]

You must have misread attachElements documentation. I'm pretty sure, first parameter is the object that you are attaching and second parameter is the element that other element (1st param) is being attached to.

[kev|GER]

What can be the problem?

[kev|GER]

You must have misread attachElements documentation. I'm pretty sure, first parameter is the object that you are attaching and second parameter is the element that other element (1st param) is being attached to.

So? It's right. I attachel the element one whit the other element.

Well, first, try to find attachElement on wiki I can't find such function. Then look at attachElements wiki page. It's not right... Read your code and wiki carefully. Check your 1st attachElement call and wiki.

[Greenie0101]

im working on the same thing and can drive it but am rearanging the bits. will post code when done. and its attachsElements not attachElement

[IIYAMA]

can't you better attach all objects to the boad?

instead of attach them to each other?

Edited June 18, 2012 by Guest

[myonlake]

Attach 100 objects to one object, then move the object. There you go, really simple script.

[Greenie0101]

ive made it, here

type /acc to enter and drive it, ill add weapons soon.

addCommandHandler("acc", carrier) 

Still to do is add guns (i think i can do this), a marker to enter it form the deck (imnot good with client side so can someone help me here), vehicle spawns, new handling for boat and sinking. To make it sink ill make it change the boat to a car if it takes enough damage.
