Now it's time to talk about one of the two functions that inspired this thread. I found void() calltimeofday = #231; /* Part of FTE_CALLTIMEOFDAY*/ after speaking with spike and finding a page on the linux system call, I had it all sorted out. calltimeofday fills a global (I believe) and calling str...

Now on to some basic string handling. strings are important for a variety of reasons, one of the most obvious, is constructing and deconstructing filepaths most recently i've been using a custom save stuffcmd, adding things like the players name, mapname, kills and secrets right into the save filena...

First things first. noref void(float vwidth, float vheight, float notmenu) CSQC_UpdateView; /* Called every single video frame. The CSQC is responsible for rendering the entire screen. */ If you're going to be using csqc, you're probably going to be doing a bit of 2d drawing. For that you will want ...

Theres been a fair amount of "how do I USE this function" going on lately, and I thought this thread would be a great way to clear some of that up! So if you use CSQC and find yourself having to ask how to use a function because you cant find any doxx, run back here and drop off what you l...

What I did, was set a flag when the left mouse button is held, (in csqc_input_event, if event is keydown, if key is mouse1) and unset that flag when the left mouse button is released. THEN in a function that is called every frame, like at the bottom of CSQC_UpdateView(), check that flag, and check t...

why ssqc function remains "listening" as long as button is pressed and csqc one doesn't? because the ssqc function you mentioned is called every frame. (listening always) and the csqc one you mentioned (csqc_input_event) is only called when a button is pressed or released (or the mouse is...

Firstly: I guess I'll do what everyone does: all the big part in ssqc, aided by small bits in csqc people use ssqc for things because its the authoritive version of the game state. Thats the main thing I think people should take away from this thread. it's pretty important. ignoring the what/why of ...

that little snippit was suggested by spoike. i threw it in for completeness.

baaaaaaagh, dont remind me of omnicide. im highly anticipating that game.

Also, Cobalt, fte has a gravity direction field, so you can fall up. or to the right.
Another quick mockup mod i want to do is a deadspace-like mod

Sooo many things to get to, dhl needs to hurry up with my graphics card

Pretty sure in that screenshot, there should be a jump or rocketjump waypoint over the obstacles between a and the player, there should also be a waypoint at or very NEAR the player. From that waypoint, there should be a path to b, between the obstacles, and to a. The scenario you show appears to ju...

Time to code bots bouncing grenades off of walls as they bunnyhop by!

Its a bit of a long post, and i havent had a day off to look at it with rested eyes yet, but i DID want to make sure you knew this post didnt go to waste. thanks for posting it, i'll be taking a look at it : )

awesome work gentlemen. i'm watching this thread with interest. The teleporter code sounds like an interesting problem to solve. how do you waypoint a bot to use teleporters currently? Sounds like (if there isnt already) there should be a function call to recheck waypoints immediately after a bot is...

*gasp* HE LIVES!

Hellsmash+? With the ante upped with the dedicated engine?
