Example of some dumb script:

Code: [Select]


armors:
  - type: STR_NONE_UC
    recovery:
      time: |
        unit.tuBonusStats bonus 50 10 0 0; #same as old `tu: [0.05, 0.01]`
        add bonus 5; #similar to old `flatOne: 5`
        limit_upper bonus 100; #impossible in old version, now TU will never reach more than 100 per turn
        return bonus;

There is too global version that affect all units/items:

Code: [Select]

extended:
  scripts:
    energyRecoveryBonusStats:
      - offset: 1
        code: |
          div bonus 2; #all units have only half energy regeneration
          return bonus;

Tip: prefer `unique_ptr` for managing dynamic memory in C++

Thanks in advance.
I have a few already, I think I'm fine on the fear side, but quality, convincing berserk is surprisingly hard to find, specially female.

Use some clip with feminist rage

You did not get exactly my point. I fine with transparency and special effects on graphic, some thing I did:

https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,1532.30.html
https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,322.msg4504.html#msg4504
https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,2059.0.html

I once made default fire semi-transparent in some old branch of OpenXcom.

My point was that graphic used for this effect was too much blurred compare to rest of graphic. Transparency can have impact on this but I do not think this main reason.

Some thoughts about mist and fire. Overall I think its look bit out of place and do not fit good rest of graphic. It look bit too much diffused compared to rest of sprites.
Overall graphic is nice looking pixel art and this effect look like from some 3D game.

This is not bug but feature, AFAIK this "halo" is used to hide hairs that could extend helmet graphic.
Right now only solution is to change background of this screen to back.
For real solution could be add support for script recolors that could easy handle things like this.

It sill wait for more free time when I can test it and fix all possible bugs and multiple corner cases.

Right now I slowly working on adding script for execution odds of enemy missions.

OpenXcom Extended / Re: [SUGGESTION] flySound - only when unit is flying

« on: February 02, 2019, 01:45:35 am »

Small update, I added info if unit is strafing or running:

Code: [Select]


    selectMoveSoundUnit:
      - offset: 5
        code: |
          var int temp;
          if ge sound_index 0;
            set sound_index walking_phase; #some random noises based on walking_phase, usually 0 - start, 7- end (diagonal move make two full cycles)
            set temp move; #type of move like `move_normal` equal 0, `move_run` equal 1 or `move_strafe` equal 2
            mul temp 5;
            add sound_index temp;
          end;
          return sound_index;

This should be map not vector, this mean empty is `{}` not `[]`.

Clue should be this part:

Code: [Select]

    producedItems:               # empty
      {}
where previously was:

Code: [Select]

    producedItems:
      SOME_ITEM: 3

One solution could be allowing to change movement type of unit by scripts (and new one "NO_MOVE"). This could have other uses too (like net to catch flying ethereals). Only tricky part is to apply gravity after change.

If someone is really determined he could use scripts to change sprites to show this illumination threshold. Current shade is available for scripts.
