Hey.
I just saw someone used the "set matrix height" to control the matrix.
Could someone quick tell me what the numbers are used for?

set matrix height 1,0,3,950

The 1 is for the matrix number, and I think that 950 is the height, but what about the others.

(look at the code in the first post)

Uhh... use the help file?

Then again, you could be using a trial version, or a cracked trial version (shame on you!!), so I'll copy it out of my DBC v1.13 help files.

Quote: "
SET MATRIX HEIGHT

This command will set the individual height of a point within the matrix. To raise a whole grid square you would need to raise four points, one from each corner of the square. If you set points x=0 z=0, x=0 z=1, x=1 z=0 and x=1 z=1 to a value of 10, you would raise the near left square upwards by ten units. The matrix number and tile reference values should be integer values. The height value should be a real number.


SYNTAX

SET MATRIX HEIGHT Matrix Number, X, Z, Height
"


Enjoy.

How's my typing? Phone 0800-GO-TO-HELL

By X and Z he means the Tiles, not just any X or Z position on the matrix. it's a cute little command, it's works great with the data structure...No one seems to know this so I think I will make a code snippet for all of you.
