before all, I am brick. I enjoy your work so much, it's realy incredible the mods for doom.

I am with some doubts with railgun. How Can I put the Y offset

ex:

a_customrailgun(damage, spawnoft_x"y", ...)

thank you

This is not a feature suggestion. The topic has been moved.

That's a bit misleading, you do not set the X and Y offsets separately. Instead, you just specify the distance away from the center of the shooter. X and Y are then calculated by trigonometry from the shooter's angle and that distance.

ok, I found a way (difficult) to do a height.

Code: Select all

actor mekanos
{
...

States
{

Railgun:
	
	NUL2 IJKLM 4 A_FaceTarget
	NUL2 N 10 A_CustomMissile("RailgunSpawner", 57, 0)
	NUL2 OPQR 6
	
	Goto Decision

...

}

Actor RailgunSpawner
{
    Radius 4
    Height 4
    Speed 10
    Damage 0
    +RIPPER
    +DOOMBOUNCE
    PROJECTILE
    States
    {
    Spawn:
       NULL A 1
       NULL A 1 A_SpawnItem("RailMonster",1,0,0)
       Stop
    }
}

Actor RailMonster
{  
    MONSTER
    Radius 1
    Height 1
    Speed 0
    +NOGRAVITY
    +NOCLIP
	+FRIENDLY
    States
    {
    Spawn:
	 NULL A 0 A_UnSetShootable
       NULL A 0 A_Look
    See:
       NULL A 0 A_Chase
    Missile:
       NULL A 0 A_FaceTarget
       NULL A 0 A_CustomRailgun(random(5, 50),0,"blue","white",1,10,3)
       Stop
    }
}

the actor mekanos is null beacuse he is a model.

Yeah, that's X and Y relative to the world (so, horizontal, the height is the Z axis), not relative to the screen.

ok, my quake bfg I do the samething, but cant anyone do a new action to stay more easy, like this:

A_CustomRailgunEX(damage, "damagetype", spawnofs_xy, "spawn height", ringcolor, corecolor, flags, float max diff)

guy what is "float max diff"?
