Top down shooter. (Shooting things)

Archive: 5 posts


Right next problem. I have a vehical. Its going to be 1 block hi. Rectangle shaped. I will be sitting on top. I want the vehical to be able to shoot on the direction of what stick i use on controls. Say right thumb stick. I do want the vehical to turn when i move the stick.

So basicily if i am stopped. Say looking up i can spin the right control stick (clockwise and anti) i can have bullets or fire or whatever i choose coming out of the vehical in the same direction as stick

Update. I do not wish for the vehical to act like a shooter as in the vehicel turns and moves on one stick. The vehicals has one button to acc and one to brake. The vehical does not turn when you are not moving. I got all the stuff working except the direction shooting.

I think what you need is a joystick rotator.2011-05-22 21:40:00

Are you asking for a way to fire in any direction independent of your orientation?2011-05-22 21:44:00

If you don't want to put anything else on top of it (like a gun arm) then add circle of invisible hologram and bolt it (regular bolt, 0 strength) to the center of the rectangle (it should overlap with the rectangle). make sure it's just big enough to clear all four corners.

Then put a microchip on the edge of the hologram. Put your emitter on the microchip and also put a joystick rotator facing away from the middle of the vehicle. For example, if you put the microchip at the top of the hologram and have the emitter shooting up (north), then the joystick rotator should also face north (there is a little arrow on it).

Hook both outputs of the right stick into both the joystick rotator and an OR gate. Hook the output of the OR gate to the emitter. Then dance the dance of finished Pauls because you are one done Paul. The dance is a required step for ultimate success. SLEEP!

Your solution will work, but if the thing you are bolting this to is also a piece of holo, both objects will move in opposite way; in that case you'd need to give the other piece of holo some resistance by for instance a gyroscope or a grav tweaker.

See you in game, Shane.
