attach player to ballon via rope

[M1ke_SK 230]

Hi,

 

I am trying to attach balloon to player with rope. And balloon go up to certain height and it stay there until it pops when shoot it.

 

balloon class

Land_Balloon_01_air_F

Code

balloon enableRopeAttach true;
myRope = ropeCreate [player, "RightHand", balloon, [0,0,0], 10];

for [{_x = 0}, {_x <= 10}, {_x = _x + 0.5}] do 
{
    _pos = getPos balloon;
    balloon setPos [_pos select 0, _pos select 1, _x];
    sleep 1;
};

What are you asking exactly? How to make the balloon go up?

 

Sounds like a remake of MGSV fulton extracts by the way!

Yes, I want to ballon go up from ground. Attach ballon to players right hand with rope and balloon go up.

Might want to look at this for some ideas.

Your code won't work since the for loop will run its course and then stop. I never tried attaching ropes to object but let's assume it works as expected.

Then you'd need to run something like:

_alt = 10;
while (alive balloon) do {
	_h = (getPos balloon) select 2;
	_adjust = (_alt - _h) / 10;
	balloon setVelocity ((velocity balloon) vectorAdd [0,0,_adjust]);
	sleep 0.1;
};

So you want to create a fulton extraction? :p

Looking at his post and the code he posted, no he doesn't.

Thanks for the model name - was looking for a ballon!

Btw - I'm going to attempt the Fulton extract. It's going to be awesome :)

If you want to attach a player to a rope you have to attach the player to something else first (small physic enabled object that can then be made invisible) and attach that to the rope instead.

 

Attaching the player directly won't work.

But I make it attachable

balloon enableRopeAttach true;

Well, there is a difference between attaching a balloon to the player and attaching the player to a balloon.

 

Simply put:

If you want to use a rope to actually move the player around then you need the workaround I mentioned.

Hey Duda, if you're still around, do you mind posting the code for that?  I have some rope related ideas and this could help me.

 

That is beautiful btw!  🙂
