This is not a request its simply is there a script out there that if you give to like an arcade machine you can start a little mini game or if there isn't one then would it be possible?


Thanks

well I did a search and all I found were things to do with DB but.

Would it be easyer to make a game with fpsc save then put the file name in a script and the script to an arcade macine.

So then you can walk up to the machine and play the game you made.

With some intense scripting, perhaps.....

I'd use Ply's Mod for this one, if I were you....

The next version of Ply's Mod will have HUD manipulation commands that would make this type of script VASTLY easier and more dynamic. I honestly had not considered ever doing this before, but now that I think about it, it's entirely probable to achieve with the commands I added.

Sadly, you will not have access to these commands until I release the next part of Ply's Mod Beta.

Well, don't get me wrong... making a mini-game is going to be a very large task even with these commands... but as it stands right now you have NO WAY of making a HUD move around the screen. I have added that ability as well as a few others dealing with HUDs. I used those to make the HUD Bars in the Demo Game I am working on.

What, so you used a system like the loading bar, where it scales the image based on a variable?

Sweet!

Yeah, that's pretty much it, CG! You have a good eye for that

Making the left-to-right bar (like the loading bar) was super simple because I didn't even need to reposition it... the resizing command did all of the work. But going in the opposite direction (bottom-to-top or right-to-left) required a bit more calculations and I needed to incorporate repositioning as well, so that the bar would be lower on the screen (or further to the right, if you're going for the horizontal approach) depending on how low the variable is compared to it's max value.

A bit complex, but the script is pretty small even compared to scripts that try to achieve this with pre-made chunks of bars and displaying them when a certain percentage is hit. This method is accurate ALL of the time and only needs one HUD (the bar itself at 100%)

You know, you could also go the route of making a DBP game... and creating a "runexe" scripting command to call that game in the script. This would cause some problems in your FPSC while playing the DBP game, but it'd definitally make your mini-game 1000x better!

I would add that kind of a command....... but I don't want to provide too much power especially when that power extends beyond the scope of what we're trying to achieve here.

Power is good to have, but too much can corrupt even the best of intentions.

Running an external program inside the engine might cark-up the actual fpsc game. I mean, running two programs at once seems a bit odd. Instead you could recode the engine to allow dbp games into a mini window, say a HUD.
Just making a suggestion.
