Gravity.

[mrtwosheds]

Found this in the changelog.
[World]
Gravity = 12.5  // default. Reduce for less gravity, etc

   Compiles, only minimal testing.

Presumably this can be set when creating a new map.
Can it also be changed for existing maps, if so how?

[GSH]

Gravity can be set via the following ways. Note: higher #s override earlier ones

1) Insert that line in the map's .trn file. You can edit old map's .trn files, but that'll probably trip the bad assets check in MP.
2) DM (and variants) allow gravity to be tweaked via the pregame Extra Options pages.
3) DLL can adjust gravity on the fly. Any map, any time. (DM DLL uses this to apply the Extra Options value once at initial map load; it or any other DLL can modify gravity every 1/10 of a second)

"3) DLL can adjust gravity on the fly. Any map, any time."

THAT sounds like fun, eh Avatar?

Only in c++.

Any word on BS-er's potential scriptor update??

[Warfreak]

BS-er is very busy with M.A.D (i would hope), so any update from him will be some time away.... however, if one of our resident programmers could lend us a hand.......... (you know, make a tutorial, hand out a few tip cards...... etc,) 

[TheJamsh]

ah, so i take it all the new things that have been added to the scripUtils (whatever this is) can only work when you program in C++? not in BS-ers scriptor?

the latest version is 1.7a right?

[OvermindDL1]

He just needs to add the options to it (or anyone, I have the source for the dll part around here somewhere, but would still need to edit the parser for the app), not hard, just needs to be done.

The source code for 1.7a is available on bzscrap for anyone who wants to update it.

hint hint certain people with programming talent

if you have time of course... =]

[OvermindDL1]

Give me a link so I do not have to hunt it down and I can update it, my next free time is monday.

This is the latest version on bzscrap.  I know BSer had an update that was compatible with all versions of bz2.  I'm not sure if this is that version or an older version.

[OvermindDL1]

I remember that update, only thing it did was dynamically link to all the functions, which is no issue as I have something that acts identically and is updated, a literal drop-in for scriptutils.h.  I will take a look at that later then, tomorrow is most likely.  I kind of got roped into writing a template based RPC system for a networking library I frequent for the moment (on the plug side, I am learning metaprogramming in C++ at a rather amazing rate).

That download link is only part of the source, it is for after the code is compiled to bytecode, also need the part for the interface and compiler.

i guess you'd have to consult BS-er for that maybe :S
