| Summary | 0000630: set-relative-speed-x/y/z SEXP | ||||
| Description | Such a SEXP would work similar to the current (and new) set-object-speed-x/y/z sexp, but the xyz vectors would be relative to the object's own axis, rather than that of the environment. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | set-object-speed-z -GTD Bastion -300 Causes "GTD Bastion" to jump briefly to 300 m/s, down its own z axis, no matter what direction its facing with respect to the game environment. | ||||
| Additional Information | It'd be even better if there were figures indicating how long it should take for an the object to accellerate to and decelerate from, the specified speed, including an option of "-1" for the decel figure, which will result in that speed being maintained indefinitely, until either the ship is destroyed, departs, or another instance of the sexp countermands the "-1" entry. However, WMC has indicated to me that such options would be rather difficult to include, and not realy worth the time and effort. | ||||

This should be as simple as unrotating the relative vector to a world vector and then using the existing set-object-speed code. I'd do it myself but I don't have the code handy at the moment. :) Assigning to WMC. EDIT: And yes, the acceleration stuff would be prohibitively difficult to implement. edited on: 11-23-05 03:33 |

Guess I'll take this. |
|
|
Meh. |
|
|
If my feature request for the new checkbox in the arrival/departure cues, to disable the rendering of the warp vortex, but retain the accel/decel effects of conventional warping, gets implimented, this (set-relative-speed-x/y/z) feature becomes less necessary (at least for my purposes). |

Done. In the future please do not post feature requests on Mantis. |
