Rattle, are you compiling in TA:K mode? Some of these things assume you are. There's no reason to use OTA mode, btw, if you use the GPL code I just posted up...

I'm usually compiling in TA:K mode... but it's a good idea to switch to your GPL defines.

EDIT: Well I've been testing it again, put set MAX_SPEED in a seperate endless while loop and no change at all. If I understood it correctly a value of 32*2^16 would be equivalent of MaxVelocity 32.

Have you done so with my GPL'd STANDARD_COMMANDS_H?

rattle · Post by **rattle** » 07 Oct 2006, 23:42

Yes, both yours and cavedog includes. I don't know, maybe the MaxVelocity tag has to be left unassigned for this to work.

Argh · Post by **Argh** » 07 Oct 2006, 23:48

Hmm. I would think that MaxVelocity would be assigned a default then. I'll have to take a look at whether 1944 is using the feature- they stated earlier that it was working for them.

Hmm. They're not using it

I'll have to do further experiments, then, with my unit, and then report the results.

I decobbled half of their scripts and came to the same conclusion. Thought it was used on some of the troop transports because of their driving behaviour.

It's not in the currently released demo - but yes, we have used it and yes, it did work. (EVENTUALLY!)

There was an issue with setting particularly low speeds - because of zero-rounding errors. Pretty sure we got Yeha to fix it, however.

rattle · Post by **rattle** » 08 Oct 2006, 02:07

Well could you provide an example of how to use it then?

Code: Select all

set MAX_SPEED to velocity*65536;

...does nada for me.

Code: Select all

random_var = get MAX_SPEED;

...returns 65536 no matter what, for me.

FLOZi, can I see some working code and example TDF, please? If you're not comfortable with putting it up here, PM it to me, and I will re-write it and release a GPL version with the next version of NanoBlobs (which may be months from now- I really should concentrate on XvM for awhile).

FLOZi · Post by **FLOZi** » 08 Oct 2006, 02:24

It's been a while since we actually tested it, i guess it's possible it broke before the release. I'll go bug Nemo.

NP, just want to see what I'm going to need to do. This is really a pretty simple unit, except for that part.

There should be a KoNB, King of NanoBlobs.

rattle · Post by **rattle** » 10 Oct 2006, 00:42

I'd like KNOB more. But that's me :)

Neddie · Post by **Neddie** » 10 Oct 2006, 05:19

There is one...

Never seen them online...

I'd steal KONB but I really need a replacement CPU.

My CPU hits 80/90% too fast - and from that point onwards, it's playing with 1 to 7 FPS

.

rattle · Post by **rattle** » 10 Oct 2006, 18:23

Tell me. I hit 90-110% whenever a nuke goes off, AA/XTA nuke that is. Argh's nuke aren't so CPU/GPU hungry at all.

If you all decide on it, I belive you might be able to declare a new king. I'm a little grey on what to do when some logos stops playing, which may explain the state of KoEE.
