| Summary | 0000166: Colossus warpout bug | ||||
| Description | Everyone who has tried to make the Colossus jump out has seen this: the vortex appears in entirely the wrong place and the jump looks very silly. What is the cause of this? Is it a problem with the code or a problem with the Colossus model? If it's the latter, we should add a hack in the model loading routine that checks for the Colossus and sets the correct data. | ||||

Bobboau, since you wanted a bug, why don't you take a look at this. :) |
|
|
This is a bug since its always worked OK before. Get the testers to check other large ships. Lets not add any hacks, theres enough of them already. |

It never worked okay before... try creating a mission with the Colossus and cueing it to depart. Notice that the Colossus never warps out in any of the FS2 campaign missions. The ideal solution would be to fix the Colossus model and redistribute it. However, since this is something that affects the original model, I think it would be better to "fix" the model on the fly with the code. EDIT: AFAIK, only the Colossus is affected. Every other model I know of works properly. edited on: 04-07-04 03:28 |

yeah, it's a problem with the pof |
|
|
Didnt realise it never worked before. How bad would the hack have to be? |
|
|
AFAIK not very bad - just fix the center-of-mass or center-of-gravity or some such. |
|
|
would it be filename specific, or read the model data or something? |
|
|
Since the last comments are almost a year old, I am assuming someone else has fixed this or it needs to be reassigned. |

the ACEN chunk should be added to the ship's position when calculating the warphole position. The ACEN chunk defaults to (0,0,0) for ships that don't have it and the Colossus is the only ship that has it, so it should only affect the Colossus model. i can take this one. |
