ventzer0 1 Posted August 26, 2017 Hi, I'm looking for some help in figuring something out. I am currently trying to create a logistic script with the help of the ACE3 interaction framework. My goal is to create something similar to R3F and igiLoad. Attaching the actual cargo objects to the vehicle, but instead of a one-dimensional manner I want to have it 2D. What I mean is: Take for example an Offroad and look at the truckbed. Now devide that into a grid lets say it is 3 units wide by 8 units long and define every loadable object as taking up x,y amount of grid space. There are many ways you fit things in there and attach them to the vehicle. An object that is 1x2 will fit in rows and columns. So my question really is : what would possibly be the best way to go at this problem? What might be the best approach, are there some functions I can use to make things easier? The inventory system in general? I can imagine some kind of tetris logic that would be able to accomplish this, but I'm afraid my approach would be very bulky and ugly. Also I don't really know what the best way of keeping track of the vehicles inventory would be. So I want to pose those questions to anyone here, who has more experience and knowledge, and might be able to help me figure this one out. Any pointers or thoughts would be apprechiated! If anyone wants to look at what I already have, nothing special just able to load/unload one object at the moment: https://pastebin.com/cHxknQdQ Cheers!

Cheers Some awesome functions there. Wondering what RUBE does for a living. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
