Factory close-yard command...
Should occur when the BOS says it does, not be controlled engine-side. It used to work, but it appears to have been changed. I've tried putting commands to open the yard everywhere in my BOS, and it's being overridden by Spring, which is incredibly annoying.
Re: Factory close-yard command...
Did that really ever work?
Re: Factory close-yard command...
I thought it did... meh, I was pretty sure it did. Or the timer didn't just shut the Yard the frame that the Unit left. It's definitely different now.
For now, I've just declared the Yard spots as "y"

Re: Factory close-yard command...
its never worked in spring except automatically like in factory scripts..
It be nice if it worked like it should then we could have things like gates...

is that what you wanted?6242 / kloot 0 minutes fixed up the YARD_OPEN COB directive
Re: Factory close-yard command...
Yes. Thanks very, very much, Kloot, that was a really annoying issue.
Re: Factory close-yard command...
gates still will not work. spring will still count the center of the gate as blocking. Meaning a few things first something inside of the gate's sphere will be unable to shoot and also the shots traveling through the center of the object will collide with the hitsphere of the unit.j5mello wrote:its never worked in spring except automatically like in factory scripts..

Oh great, I hope it doesn't break units that don't use the command (like, say, almost any made for Spring).Hoi wrote:is that what you wanted?6242 / kloot 0 minutes fixed up the YARD_OPEN COB directive

Could you have no hitsphere and lots of quick terraforming hidden by the model? I thought we could do terraforming but I'm not sure how hit is implemented?smoth wrote:gates still will not work. spring will still count the center of the gate as blocking.

What? How could a unit "break" if its script does NOT call setKDR_11k wrote: Oh great, I hope it doesn't break units that don't use the command (like, say, almost any made for Spring).
OPEN_YARD anywhere (which, as you point out, would include
almost every script written for Spring)? Only newly made COBs
that DO use it will possibly fail, the engine-controlled opening
and closing is still present for factories (which can be worked
around now by calling OPEN_YARD in Activate() / Deactivate(),
existing factory scripts that already do so are unaffected). So
where's the big emergency?
Re: Factory close-yard command...
I thought you turned into a completely manual process.
