[Publish game problem]

I thank that is the way Leadwerks works. Or at least in the sense that Leadwerks doesn't scan your code to see what kind of files you load. For compiled C++ that would also be pretty difficult to do. It only exports files that are loaded/referenced in the editor

[editor to use code??]

Hi and welcome to the forum,

To what files/ tutorials are you refering? 

For an introduction to lua and how to use it with the Leadwerks editor start here: https://www.leadwerks.com/learn?page=Tutorials_Lua-Scripting_Introduction-to-Lua

Additionally you can watch videos :

 

[Model Rotation Problems]

Do you have a script attached that manipulates rotation?

[Item Spawner]

The item you are spawning is stored in self.spawn. 

You could attach a script and check if a boolean has been set to this spawned item. You can than access it like this:

Quote

self.spawn.script.pickedUp

Your If statement has to be extended as well. Something like

Quote

if Time:Millisecs() > self.spawntime + (self.spawnrate * 1000) then

    if self.spawn ~= nil and self.spawn.script.pickedUp then

 

[start function and loading order]

Yeah I have been bitten by this problem several times. What you can do to solve this is add a bool variable IsInit at the end of each start function and set it to true when the end of the start functions has been reached. When you are in a child, check if the parent has this IsInit variable set to true. If not, then perform an init function on the parent first.

[Change world origin]

No eperience with your problem, but the you might want to hold out for Leadwerks 5 then. However it will be a while before it is released. https://www.leadwerks.com/5

[Trying to make a health regen code...]

Little note: those parenthesis around the Time:GetSpeed() are not needed.

 

[Trying to make a health regen code...]

Can you post your entire script?

[Trying to make a health regen code...]

Script.healthRegen = 0.005 --float "Health regen"

 Player is one of these "truckers" and tries to make a living. Gameplay would involve maintaining and upgrading your vehicle, managing your assets etc. Vehicles should have lifelike physics (it is up to player to decide if he thinks he can haul shipment of heavy machinery from here to there considering the route and vehicle he has, for example) and very detailed, sim like approach to vehicle systems.

Sounds like truck simulator in space and I like it. Especially with VR.

How can you see my character is animated and with the sequences separated, this is very simple to do and now?

As your screenshot indicates, your character has animation sequences. You can play these sequences to test it out. 

The AI script plays the animation based on a given state. You probably need to edit the name of animation sequences in that script so that it matches with the animation sequence names of your model. Look like for lines like this:

model:PlayAnimation("Run",0.05)

For instance: your animation is called 'walk' .

How do I get him to walk in my direction?

I don't know the AI script out of my head, but i believe the physics character controller is probably setting you as a target, when the player is near the enemy. This means the rotation is handled for you by the character controller. The 'sliding' you are experiencing is probably because of the point above. It is trying to play an animation that it doesn't know. Try replacing it with one of your sequences.

The translation is a little difficult for me to understand here. Can you describe this one a little bit more? 

[Failed to upload to workshop]

I am trying to upload a new version of SplineTools, but I am getting an error: m_SubmitItemUpdateResult = 15.

The file types haven't changed and the size remains at around 50 mb

[Spline tools - collision - LE 4.5 beta]

Josh has posted a few times about physics bugs being solved, so things might have resolved themselves by now. I have yet to check it out though. Luckily it is almost weekend.

[Creating Animated Characters.]

For animation

• So you have your character in the model editor and can see all the animations playing? 
• Next step would be to load your model in the scene via code or drag it in the scene.
• You could for instance attach a script to this model and use the animation commands to play animation.
• If you look at the FPS template you can find out how the crawler does animation. It basically plays an animation based on its current state.
• Have you tried googling it? Because the first result is a youtube video. it is slightly outdated but should point you in the direction that you need to follow to start playing your character animation.

 

[Spectator colliding with terrain causes crash]

I will try this again when I have the time.

[Has anyone figured out how to add shadows on the vegetation painter terrain tool?]

This is done in the material of the vegetation. I think I covered it in this video around 1.10.

After some tests it crashes after a few steps  only in a map with the Spline tools loaded... ?

Sorry missed that one. I suspect a beta branch issue here as well. I will need to test it though. This was the road-options map? 

 

might be similar to this:

[Does world pick ignore collisiontype?]

Debris and scene are both static physics. So when a static scene object is intersecting a static debris object, is the collision function triggered?

[Spline tools - collision - LE 4.5 beta]

 Perhaps it was moved because you mentioned splinetools. The topic makes it seem the problem lies in splinetools although we can repeat the issue in a blank project too (without using splinetools).

Reported it here:

 

 

[Spectator colliding with terrain causes crash]

In beta branch

• create a terrain
• create a camera.
• Attach spectator script from the default scripts.
• Fly against the terrain when running the game.
• Game crashes.

[Spline tools - collision - LE 4.5 beta]

Thanks for reporting.

The spectator script used in Splinetools is the same as the spectator script that comes with a default leadwerks project in Scripts\Objects\Player\Spectator.lua

Stable branch doesn't have this.

Can you make a bug report in the bug section?

Tldr: in beta branch create a terrain and camera. Attach spectator script from the default scripts. Fly against the terrain when running the game.

[Editor - camera navigating - rotate around selection]

This is not supported as far as I know.

[Spline tool: paths, roads and more]

I will be on vacation to South Africa for a few weeks, after that the new update will roll out including the new ropes and wire spline.

[Spline tool: paths, roads and more]

Simply move the entities where the road nodes are attached to.

 

Can't wait to see what you are going to do with it.
