Rastavovich 0 Posted March 27, 2003 first of all, wrong forum then: what is that fin for, you nowhere set it to true what is that goto debug for when you nowhere define debug and what you mean with, it doesn't turn as in reality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BratZ Posted March 27, 2003 I know what you mean...the trailer follows exactly behind the tow vehicle Hard to explain,but you want the trailer to point in the direction that the tow vehicle is,and take up the difference of aliginment depending on the tow vehicles speed (turning a corner at slow speed,the trailer takes a wide path,at faster speed it takes up the angle faster) I know alot of people have worked on trailer scripts,many would be in the editing like forums,I am not sure of the current status of any great trailer scripts I think I am going to implement the work I have done,using Vibes new PAK36 and the matching Krupp Protze This was discussed with Vibes tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if i posted kegtys trailer script that he did and with my small mod on it or if i posted it only on OFPEC but here it comes again. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE"> _tarray = [] #loop pera setpos getpos etu _tarray = _tarray + [getdir etu] ? count _tarray > 30 : _tarray = _tarray - [_tarray select 0] pera setdir (_tarray select 0) pera setvelocity (velocity etu) ~0.0001 @speed etu > 0 goto "loop" <span id='postcolor'> i also tried do one of my own. My biggest problem was it sometimes loose track and got losted into space and such. Think it will just need the forumla. *Get "car" speed/velocity, dir and postion and tralier dir. *Put trailer behind car with help of dir and postion. Put the velocity for making the traliers wheels turn and stuff. Finaly adjust the "turning" with the dir and make it comes to the right spot "slowly" and only if it is moving and perhaps making it comes "straight" faster depending of the speed.

granQ 293 Posted April 20, 2003 had a new idea, not been thinking thru it so closely but.. what if in the bv206 init. (addon init not mission maker since i want to make it workable without extra editing from the user).. anyway, the init starts a script, or some eventhandlers.. brainstorm code now, not working or anthing </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> #loop _mydir = getdir _this // get he current dir of the bv206 ~0.1 ?( _mydir != (getdir _this) : goto "turn" // check if the bv206 have turned since last 0.1 sec goto "loop" #turn ?(_mydir < getdir _this) : _this animate [""rear"",1] ?(_mydir > getdir _this) : _this animate [""rear"",0] goto "loop" <span id='postcolor'> Okey it needs to be a little bit more advancde then this but it gives the picture of how i thought. would like some feedback on this one.
