Inverse nova

[danmer]

Script Name: teh circle effect
Script Description: a short function, originally intended for creating special effects. Shoots a circle of bullets at a certain player, the player being in the center of the circle
Original Author(s): this one coded by me, inspired by this, as well as the Voodoo Doll script by Mythical Beast and fri_
Core Version: 2.6.3

Code: [Select]

const
pi = 3.14159265;

procedure InNova(target,Shooter,style: integer; r,n,speed,power: single);
var i: integer;
    step,x,y: single;
begin
  step := 2*pi/n;
  getplayerxy(target,x,y);
 
  for i := 0 to n do
    CreateBullet(X+r*cos(i*step),Y+r*sin(i*step),-speed*cos(i*step),-speed*sin(i*step),power,style,Shooter);

end;
And naturally, if you set r := 0 , you get Avarax's nova effect.

I also carried it on a bit, creating this little script
You can see it at work on this server: soldat://lemonserv.com:23072

It basically creates such circles above the player who first joins the server. Bullet types 1 and 14 are used, so it looks like fireworks =P

If you use the pasted script, type /help to see the admin commands. Also /timed turns off automatic executing every second, and /rand turns off the randomization used for "fireworks"

You can also get a couple of demos here


PS, happy new year people

My Nova procedure does the same with negative speed values

wait, that's what decentralize does, isn't it? Omg i think i missed that then...
Well, anyway, just made some screens lol


And, Avarax, your thing turns degrees into radians which i think isn't necessary...
