How to make a sackbot aiming system?

Archive: 4 posts


On my sackbot's chip I made a system that when you face left and press a button (say L1), your sackbot will shoot an object left (Plasma in this case),

if you face right and press L1, your sackbot will shoot plasma to the right. (Here's how)-->http://s1106.photobucket.com/albums/h368/vicander99/?action=view¤t=Untitled.png

Now My question, can you make a system that can shoot in any direction, controlled by your left analog stick?

You could probably use a rocket rotator on the thing that the emitter is on. In doing this, the thing should aim in the direction you're moving; which would be using the left stick.

This would only work if your emitter is on a piece of hologram that is following your sackbot.

I tried putting a piece of hologram to follow the sackbot, made a separate arrow shaped hologram and placed the emitter and rocket follower(or mover) to it, and connected it with a winch to the hologram following the sackbot, (didn't work very good, though I think I could had improved it...).

I also tried putting a piece of hologram material to follow the sackbot, made a separate straight line shaped hologram and placed the emitter, and connected it with a wobble bolt to the hologram following the sackbot, ( didn't work very either, ...).

Any way thx for commenting

Any other suggestions?

I've been working on several ways of making a sackbot aim.

one way was to make a cursor and connect it to the stick for full range motion aiming. Pretty simple just make the cursor and connect it up to an advanced mover.

Second and more trickier depending on what you want to do ... but fairly simple to construct if your not looking for lining up issues with a gun or something.

I ALWAYS put a peice of hologram down and set a controllinator on top of it. and that will follow the sackbot make it invisible and in front of it. make it follow the sackbot of course. In the thin layer in front of you make something that looks like a oar or a paddle and connect that to a stick rotator and make it follow really close and that will give you full 360 degrees of motion. I can show you I have several set up in a demo lvl. Just friend me PSN = Veldimare - throw something in the subject so i know its you.

OH also check out the lvl ... Portal Gun its where I almost perfected my aiming system. His works extremely well.

He used to have it set up as a paintinator which im still working on. Mine makes noise which im trying to cover up or stop but its not going so well.
