LBPK Advaced Technique

Archive: 5 posts


If you are aware of the level Egg Kartin' VS you must know about the star cursor over the player's head (the one that currently has the egg in hand!)
My question is how does one go about recreating that star over a player's head to let other players know who has it? Is it even possible to do or is it strictly only done by LBPK level creators? If you know it would be a great help! <3:star:

This sounds likes a tag on the egg. I'd have to double check in game later, but you can have labels show up from tags when picked up or something like that. I'll get back to you on it!

Edit: OK! I've checked it, and if you add a tag to an item, and in the tag menu you select the 'visible to radar' option the star will appear. Additionally, the stars color depends on what tag color you have selected. If you assign a label to the tag, the label will show up instead of the star.

Advanced technique: attach a grab sensor to the same object as the tag, with default settings, and attach the output of the grab sensor to the tag (on the white dot). This makes the tag active only while the object is being grabbed. This causes the label to show up on screen only when it's grabbed, and also the tag can only ativate a tag sensor while being grabbed.

Additional idea: you can use 2 tags, of separate colors, with one invisible which activates the tag sensor, and the other attached to the grab sensor set to inverted output. This would cause the tag to show up while the object is dropped, but disappear when it's picked up. An interesting alternative depending on what you're doing.

Good luck!

I think she did. I just saw that Lylytree is xazarx, so if looked at my lat recommandation, Plum Kartin' VS, from xazarx, you'll see that she (he) managed it.2014-06-13 08:38:00
