I think what he's trying to say is that there is apparently a widget in THIS that is relatively similiar to what you're asking for. But he's obviously being an idiot about it...

[AF]

No he's not, he's providing a public service by beautifying the forums....

Well actually i must say you are the idiot, because i made these pictures EXTRA BIG so you understand what to do. You dont even have to understand any language to read my directions.

Clearly you haven't played a game of it (with everything working, if the code is broken in 80.5 that's not your fault). When you give an order to a big group lua turns it into an arranged formation (happens to be a gadget, but it could be moved into a widget).

This is like one of those stupid riddles:

Q. How many Spring Lua coder wanna-bes does it take to go read some free, useful sourcecode?

A. Infinity, because 9 out of 10 are simply too lazy to find the download link, and the last guy's attention span was too short to actually read anything.

if you call me a lua wannabe,ok.
i have no clue of ANY programming language.
i somehow realized i just have to come back in a e few years, when i probably learnt stuff,and then i ll just read through your post with the nice pictures and it┬┤ll make ┬┤bing┬┤ and i will wonder why i didnt get it back in 09.

i have played T.H.I.S. in new releases.nothing.
Lurker gave me the hint to play it with a older release.i did.
there it was.great.
d_b i understood what you mean,this formations are really coool.
only thing they needed would be a "switch on/switch off" formation speed.cuz daggers arrive first always and this may not be wanted always.


yay.but would somebody care to actually do the widget?because this needs to be shared for the other mods,i think.

hmm try ctrl click if u want daggers to move better.

[srapop]

right.

[srapop]

if it is so easy to just "look at free source code",could someone do it?
because for me its still a long way to reach to that level of knowledge.



Turn it into a widget!please!

*thanks*

All done.

I didn't do much testing, but since it worked that's fine for me.

If anything goes wrong let me know ^^.

There is one setting in the code you can change:

Code: Select all

local formationType = 2 --- Controls what formation the units take (1-5)

enjoy.
