Hi, Im fairly new to scripting in FPSC. I have tried searching the forum for an answer to my question but had no luck. I was wondering if it was possible to have a hud display the direction in which the player is hit? If it is possible does anyone know if there is a script floating around to do this or how it might be done? Thanks a lot

Are you thinking of a map whch shows which all the enemies are(kind of like in Ghost Recon), or a HUD which shows dots or something where the firing is coming from??

you might need a mod, but that idea that i would use is:

make the directional blood hud image.

make a script for the character that shoots at you, that would rotate the hud inage corrisponding to the characters grid position.

i don't think there are any commands for that stuff in stock fpsc, but if you can find a mod that has those (Project Blue most likely) and out it together.

The jist of how this is going to work is:
- When an enemy shoots at the player, find out if it hit the player (Using a global script to determine if the player got it, as well as a per-entity trigger to find out which one hit it)
- When you know an entity hit the player and which one, have it trigger a portion of that enemy's script.
- The part of that enemy's script is going to find out what angle the entity is from the player (general angle, if nothing else) and trigger a global script that will show the HUD that's needed as well as fade it in/out.

It's not exact science because you don't have a proper programming language to do it the professional looking way, but it'll get the basic job done.

The one and only,

sure why not this community has given me so much

the easiest way I've got it to work so far is editing the enemie's AI script and adding the following..

loading the direction huds (basic shapes are in the attached file just place it directly in the Files folder)

+ Code Snippet

:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimagefine=damage/0.png,hudname=damage0,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimagefine=damage/45.png,hudname=damage45,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimagefine=damage/90.png,hudname=damage90,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimagefine=damage/135.png,hudname=damage135,hudhide=1,hudmake=display

:state=0:dimvar=vCAY,dimvar=vEAY,dimvar=TempC,dimvar=vFinal

right after the line telling the entity to shoot the player add these lines

:state=1:setvar=vEAY $EAY,setvar=vCAY $CAY,wrapvar=vEAY,wrapvar=vCAY

Very impressive Bibo4PC. Great script and works wonderfully well. Very kind of you to share it too. Should I decide to use it expect credits on my game (Not quite sure if I want a 'show direction of fire' script yet).

Congrats, Bibo! Nice script. I'm glad to see you were able to make it with the super-simple instructions I gave. I completely forgot to mention the angle padding when checking, but you seemed to have solved that quite nicely. Great work!

@Bibo4PC: Well the only thing i can say is that you will be credited in Teraborus - The Begin of the Solaris for this awesome script, it works perfectly i will edit it to my likings, but it is already awesome as it is.

I am gonna do a test room with third person with all stock. And post a screen. Expect a edit.

EDIT: Here are three shots, with Custom WIP Third Person in the working and that awesomness of Biobo4pc his script.

@Bibo4PC: Yep it is cool. No doubts.

did you placed the damage huds that bibo4pc premade for you in your files folder of your fpsc dir? and just copy the whole AI full into a fpi edit pad make the changes u need (u dont need any if you just want to test it out) then make it a .fpi and place it in the main of a character

Thanks for sharing this breakthrough. It's a great addition.

Just to clarify: This script will work only with Ply's Mod. Correct?
