Editing the range of damage...

Post by Fleabag77 »

I'm trying to add a trigger to a weapon that gets rid of everything (with health) on the map. I've gotten the second trigger working, but when I fire it, it only destroys what I fired at. Is there a way to fix this?

Note: This is not intended to be a cheating mod. You need host for extra triggers and jpt changes anyway.

I suppose a simple way to sum this up is: I want to make a nuke.

you would have to do a dep swap in the proj tag. there is a dep for an explosion. then in the jpt you increase the range. i never made a nuke in my mod mostly becuase i dont like dieing when deleting.

Well, I'm really just trying to add the nuke trigger to a different weapon. I've got the magnum's second trigger fully-automatic, which works well, but there's people that'll fall down, not die, then start randomly shooting. It's gets irritating, so I was looking for a good way to fix that.

Maybe I need a newer plugin?

Yeah. (EDIT: Actually, the invisibles weren't shown. I checked that, and a bunch of values appeared. I guess I can use Entity for this from now. Thanks.)

I tried opening the map in Dothalo and editing the jpt from there. I changed the first 5 values, and it works fine now! Thanks for all your help.
