Scripted Polys

[Hacktank]

It would be nice to be able to select a specific polygon (maby by poly number) and be able to add a specific peice of code to it. It would have events for example:

OnPlayerCollide(ID: byte; xvel,yvel: single);

OnObjectCollide(Style,Owner: byte; xvel,yvel: single);

You would be able to add any normal scripting commands like MovePlayer, ForceWeapon, and CreateBullet. This would be disabled if scripting is set to 0 of corse. So, what do you think?

This would change gameplay very much and of course there is sth you said: polys that hurt, collide, burn, kill or regenerate. More is not useful for Soldat I think and it would need to change the mapformat and that is a dont suggest

This is a scriptcore suggestion, DarkCrusade. I don't think it would require a change to the map format, and if anything, it will change gameplay for the better as scripts would have just a bit more complexity in them (like Soldat Portal maybe?).

No, it wouldn't need a change of the map format. (edit: DAMN YOU SPILTCOFFEE >:()

And sure, why the hell not, but I reckon this would be a feature that could definitely clog the scriptcore up in terms of runtime performance; I might be talking out of my arse here, but what the hey.

Hahaha...

Shouldn't be too much going on with it, if only objects are colliding (like knives or health boxes - no bullets, of course... that's where the lag would come from).

I like new map ideas. I'd luke to see a change in polys, so you can dump through them from the bottom, and land on top of it, like a platform, and when you crouch, you fall through it.

Neat idea.
I'm for this. F12.
