In BA it is possible to make units that use shields to deflect plasma bombardments
What mechanics does the game rely on to make these hollow shell spheres? (I canÔÇÖt find a gadget or widget that seems to do this job)
And further more can I utilize this mechanic to make my own custom shapes with custom colors by invoking xyz and RBG based functions?
any info would be great
thanks

Re: drawing shapes
Shields aren't a Gadget, they're a Spring function. Look up Weapons:Shields in the Wiki, it's pretty complete.
Re: drawing shapes
They're special projectiles. You can draw a sphere using OpenGL though. I don't think Spring includes the primitive functions so you'll need to make a function that creates the sphere mesh yourself.Voidranaut wrote:What mechanics does the game rely on to make these hollow shell spheres?

doesn't CA's cloak gadget draw a transparent sphere?
Re: drawing shapes
It does, although it isn't smooth shaded.aegis wrote:doesn't CA's cloak gadget draw a transparent sphere?
LUPS can, if I understand correctly, also draw pretty spheres.
