17:25.43EntityEnigmacan you not give weapons validators to target specific units?
17:26.02EntityEnigmalike if im trying to get a dummy weapon on a turret to attack a dummy unit
17:30.02EntityEnigmaset the effect field to create dummy unit create unit effect?
17:31.03EntityEnigmaoh i see
17:31.18EntityEnigmai have to make a set with a validator and add that set as the weapon effect
17:31.28EntityEnigmadamn man....

19:38.57EntityEnigmais there anyone i could get to take a look at an affect chain on a test map?
19:39.29DeadZerglingprobably not, considering affects don't exist in the data editor
19:39.42EntityEnigmaeffects*
19:39.53EntityEnigmamy bad bro
19:40.13DeadZerglingnps, this the turret issue you were having yesterday?
19:40.18EntityEnigmayeah
19:40.26EntityEnigmai got the weapon set up right
19:40.32EntityEnigmabut the ability is not quite there
19:40.42EntityEnigmasomething is out of order
19:40.53EntityEnigmalet me get it up on drop box
19:41.20DeadZerglingno rush, I'm actually somewhat busy at work at the moment
19:41.26DeadZerglingbut can try to take a look at some point
19:41.30EntityEnigmaah ok
19:42.56*** join/#sc2mapster Dustin_Hendricks (~Dustin_He@12.203.180.244)
19:43.20DeadZerglingHey Dustin_Hendricks , your co-workers feeling any better lately?
19:43.36Dustin|WorkNope, 2 missing again today lol
19:43.51DeadZerglingwell, it isn't like they have to worry too much about getting fired
19:43.56Dustin|Workyaaa
19:43.57DeadZerglingmay as well use the sick days up
19:44.11EntityEnigmahttps://www.dropbox.com/s/uxq9et1t9qvsqm3/Remote_Artillery_Test_Phase_2.SC2Map?dl=0
19:44.12EntityEnigmatry that
19:44.37EntityEnigmawhen you can
19:45.02DeadZerglingsure, in the meantime, can you describe what you want to have happen?
19:45.32EntityEnigmaim trying to get the turret to rotate in the direction of the ability it has when it fires
19:45.45EntityEnigmaim trying to get it to fire a shell at a target location
19:45.59EntityEnigmasimple in concept right?
19:46.10EntityEnigmajust turn point fire
19:46.32EntityEnigmai dont know how the persistents are supposed to be set up i think
19:47.09EntityEnigma*fire at target location
19:47.13DeadZerglingyea, will take a look when I can, you need to use periodic to get position relative to the caster unit
19:47.40EntityEnigmaoh
19:47.57DeadZerglingand when you want something directly in front of the caster unit, you typically want -y
19:47.59EntityEnigmai dont know if i even need one then
19:48.06EntityEnigmaooh
19:48.46EntityEnigmabut idk how that applies for a turret for which the unit is a structure and doesnt turn
19:49.41EntityEnigmai thought the periodic effect sets points reletive to the target location
19:49.45DeadZerglinghrrrmm, well Create Persistent may not be the route to go then
19:50.07EntityEnigmaer persistent
19:50.10DeadZerglingI'd just create your dummy unit at the target point of wherever you cast your ability
19:50.36BountyI think this may go down as my greatest creation of all time.... https://www.dropbox.com/s/e557ie50m4y9cv6/Project%20Aqua%20-%20Abilities%20and%20Impact%20Types.wmv?dl=0
19:50.40EntityEnigmawhat about the launch missle effect?
19:51.17DeadZerglingyea, I would have it happen before that
19:51.42DeadZerglingif you connect it to launch missile, it is gonna turn AFTER the missile hits probably
19:51.48EntityEnigmaholy shit bounty
19:52.05EntityEnigmaah ok
19:52.58DeadZerglingI would do something more like, validator is a valid target location (like does it need to be visible, same cliff level, etc)
19:53.02DeadZerglingset effect
19:53.05DeadZerglingcreate dummy unit
19:53.08DeadZerglinglaunch missile
19:53.15DeadZerglinginside that set effect
19:53.40DeadZerglingI can see the reviews already Bounty ,  too hard to control, lagginess makes game not fun
19:53.58BountyAlready tested online :)
19:54.36DeadZerglingyou should honestly know better than most about how Bnet lag throws you off just enough
19:55.24Dustin|WorkLooks awesome bounty
19:55.40DeadZerglinghope the lag doesn't ruin another action game though, it just keeps happening....
19:57.35BountyNah it will be fine
19:59.15DeadZerglingstill reminds me of Punky Skunk, lol
20:03.51DeadZerglingthat make sense EntityEnigma ?
20:04.09DeadZerglinggot enough to experiment with?
20:05.31EntityEnigmayeah i'm trying it atm
20:06.27EntityEnigmabut if you put multiple effects in the periodic effects field of a persistent effect and set the period count to 1 shouldnt that fucntion like a set?
20:06.42EntityEnigmaidk what the difference is
20:08.35Dustin|WorkIt lets you put multiple without a set effect?
20:08.43DeadZerglingpretty much EntityEnigma , but it isn't really needed, and could be more of a delay between the effects
20:08.55DeadZerglingyea Dustin|Work, could always do that
20:08.55Dustin|WorkI havent messed with that in awhile it seems lol
20:09.17DeadZerglingcreate persistent, switch with drop down
20:09.53DeadZerglingI use a switch like that for my Berserker monsters
20:10.47DeadZerglingor maybe i mean fall through, I always mix the terminology up
20:16.31EntityEnigmahmm
20:16.34EntityEnigmasomethign is still wrong
20:16.55EntityEnigmagonna have to look at it a bit more
20:21.58BountyThanks Dustin
20:35.45EntityEnigmableeeegh
20:37.21EntityEnigmaoh snap!
20:37.25EntityEnigmai almost got it
20:37.26EntityEnigmathe timng
20:37.30EntityEnigmais all funky though
20:37.43EntityEnigmaproblem was the targets
20:37.52EntityEnigmai coppied the effects from a map kueken made
20:38.02EntityEnigmaand he was using a beam instead of a missile
20:38.15EntityEnigmahad the targets set to target unit instead of target point
20:38.48EntityEnigmaonce i switched the target fields of the effects from target unit to target point it started working
20:46.53EntityEnigmaokay DeadZergling its more or less working now but i cant imagin how to get the missle effect not ot fire before the turret is finished turning
20:59.47EntityEnigmaright now ive got a generic kill command in the effect expire of a persistent with a .5 sec expire delay that is getting rid of the dummy unit
21:01.27EntityEnigmathat persistent is in the effect - spawn field of the create unit effect used to spawn the dummy unit
21:01.50EntityEnigmaugh my head is spinning
21:01.52EntityEnigmataking a break
21:02.11DeadZerglinghi EntityEnigma
21:02.22DeadZerglingmind sending a demo map, I can take a look
21:02.33EntityEnigmaone sec

21:04.30EntityEnigmaDeadZergling: if youre busy its cool
21:04.43EntityEnigmai also have a thread on the forums
21:04.52EntityEnigmahttp://www.sc2mapster.com/forums/development/data/78699-artillery-turret/#p5
21:04.56DeadZerglingso the issue is, the missile hits before the turret finishes turning?
21:05.13*** join/#sc2mapster Tsukasa_ (46c3c994@gateway/web/freenode/ip.70.195.201.148)
21:05.17Tsukasa_what's up peeps
21:05.22EntityEnigmait fires before the turret finishes rotating
21:05.49EntityEnigmai don't have the dummy weapon set up to kill the dummy unit
21:05.52DeadZerglingcould you just adjust the turret to rotate faster?
21:05.53Tsukasa_i'm trying to find a modder who is pretty decent at the source engine. anyone know of anyone i should talk to or what channel to visit?
21:06.04Tsukasa_i want to pay them to do stuff
21:06.17EntityEnigmayeah i guess i could just do that lol
21:06.54EntityEnigmaTsukasa_: wouldnt be me
21:07.02EntityEnigmaim terrible at coding
21:07.20Tsukasa_hammer world editor
21:07.26Tsukasa_not a whole lot of coding
21:09.45EntityEnigmaDeadZergling: the dummy unit also sometimes disapears before the turret is finished rotating
21:10.05DeadZerglingyea, how should i go about seeing this in action entityenigma
21:10.10DeadZerglingbefore I even look at the data
21:10.51EntityEnigmai cant record it so
21:10.57DeadZerglinghrrrmmm, seems it isn't happy with me for not having HoTS, still :)
21:11.01EntityEnigmai guess if you cant view it now
21:11.13EntityEnigmaoh balls
21:11.45EntityEnigmawell that takes care of that
21:11.56DeadZerglingI'll see if it lets me see the issue anyways
21:12.09DeadZerglingI already can think of a couple solutions to your problem.
21:12.48EntityEnigmaif i can set up the dummy weapon to do the actually killing of the unit that will solve one of them
21:13.07DeadZerglinghaha, won't even let me look, that's okay :)  but the solution may make your head spin more.
21:13.43DeadZerglingso roughly how long would it take the turret to do a 180?
21:14.01EntityEnigmaa little more that .5 seconds
21:14.24EntityEnigmause a persistent with an effect delay?
21:14.27DeadZerglingso what we can do, is use a Create Persistent at the Target Point
21:15.06EntityEnigmahow
21:15.23DeadZerglingthe very first effect your ability will call will be a create persistent
21:15.42EntityEnigmaok
21:15.59DeadZerglingthen you will want a period of 0, 0, .6, and 0
21:16.55DeadZerglingwith periodic effects in this order:  Create Dummy Unit, Issue Order to Turret to attack said dummy unit, launch missile for effect targeting that CP point.  Actually the 4th period might not be necessary
21:17.17DeadZerglingyou are launching a missile that does the ability on impact, correct?
21:17.59EntityEnigmayup
21:18.19DeadZerglingyea, so a 3 effect periodic should work fine
21:19.36DeadZerglingjust have to be very careful with how you assign your issue order and launch missile targets
21:22.03EntityEnigmawhen you say a period of 0, 0, .6, and 0 does that mean add those 4 values into the period durations array?
21:22.17DeadZerglingright
21:22.23EntityEnigmaok
21:22.36DeadZerglingif you put in just 1, it uses that one only, but if you do multiple, can make it be whatever you want for each period
21:23.44DeadZerglingwhat I said should work, although the turret may just sit there idly a bit before the missile fires
21:24.42DeadZerglingthe issue might also be the arc of the weapon
21:24.49DeadZerglingdo you have it set to something other than 0?
21:27.17DeadZerglingTsukasa_ , just wait awhile, there a couple here who might be interested.  But responses not starting for more than 4 hours isn't uncommon here.
21:28.27EntityEnigmathe arc field is set to 0
21:28.42EntityEnigmaof the dummy weapon
21:37.55Ashamed_Workw00t so my dns server change should be smooth as butter!!
21:38.18Ashamed_WorkI just found out the DNS server I am taking down.... is super slow in requests... like 1-3 a second lol
21:38.37Ashamed_Workmy main servers ( the guys that will be taking the load from this machine when its down ) 300-500 a second
21:44.32Dustin|Worknice :D
21:45.34Dustin|WorkTsukasa_, I use to use hammer a lot back in the day, made some sweet CounterStrike maps, but havent messed with it since L4D came out
21:46.21Tsukasa_Dustin|Work: sweet
21:46.36Tsukasa_Dustin|Work: do you happen to be close to Austin?

22:56.53retspam2csHello
22:57.12retspam2cscan anyone tell me how to create a death animation for a unit death in the units actor and a sound? And i need just one death animation for all damage types.
22:59.44Dustin|Work3d modeling and animating software is required
23:04.30retspam2csno i mean use an already existing one
23:04.33retspam2csin sc2
23:07.50Dustin|WorkSo you want to make new death actors and use pre-supplied animations?
23:08.41retspam2csyes, with already existing models in sc2
23:09.28Dustin|WorkJust make a new Death Actor object in data and apply the model you want to use
23:11.28retspam2csand how to make it play the death model when the unit dies?
23:14.39retspam2csnvm figured it out
23:14.43retspam2csthank you
