yea, I was really tired when I made it, it was like 3am or something

[Wunce]

Is there a convar for when the constraints of a prop break?
Oh cool, I just read it again, that's exactly what I wanted.

[thejjokerr]

Nice.

Though in the video, your voice reminds me of someone:

[Fantym420]

haha, LOL, I.... Don't....... Know...... what you're **WHEEEEZ*** .... Talking about.
I was getting very frustrated at the fraps demo, it's hard to do a video 30 seconds at a time.

[TheBricktop]

Add some better effects on prop destroy, smoke puff or something.

The effects are selectable in the options menu, there's a bunch in the list.

[Fantym420]

[Fantym420]

Updated to v2.2:
Fixed Health Display To Center On Entity
Changed Text Style and Added Green to Red Fade based on Health

[CowThing]

You should use img_thumb tags in the opening post so we can see the pictures, and makes it look more professional.

eg:
[img_thumb]http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/7109/gmconstruct0001s.jpg[/img_thumb]
will make


And media tags for the youtube video.

[Fantym420]

I wanted to, but I couldn't find the list of tags availible, so it's img_thumb for images and media for videos?

[c-unit]

Why don't you code a nospread so you can actually hit the object. You miss like half your shots.

Edited:

nice script though

[Covict Joe]

Is it just me, or is this script VERY laggy?

[Fantym420]

I was noticing that just last night, i will work on optimizing it over the next couple of days, but my internet at home is down at the moment.

on gm_flatgrass I get < 10 fps with this addon enabled and a fin plane I built while i usually get > 60 fps

Oh, well, maybe the script contains some loops?

(and thanks for clarification)

[elowin]

Finally, a good alternative to SPD, and even better too.

Thank You, I should get my internet back at home tonight, so if anyone has any suggestions for more features or different functionalities I might be up for doin a few more updates.

[dumbfox]

A damn decent job on this, Have a lua king for your work.

[Fantym420]

Just noticed a bug or feature, It seems my auto-heal code heals the player as well. I can either remove this all together, or add it as another option. I found it's almost impossible to die if you but the heal on 10 and the interval at 0. If I add it as a feature should it have it's own settings or just use the prop heal settings? If anyone finds any bugs please report them here, thank you and happy destruction.

[Brandan]

Own settings.

[Fantym420]

v2.5:
Added Player Auto Heal
Added NPC Auto Heal
Cleaned Up Code A Bit
Fixed Crash When Map Entities Are Killed
(map entities ( func_ ) now do not receive health)

If you've found any bugs, or can think of any more features please drop a reply or message my way.
Thank you, and Happy Destruction!

Woot!

[cis.joshb]

Do entities have health too? Also you should make it so you can set if this applies to ragdolls, props, or entities in the menu.

Edited:

SVN dosen't work.

[matt1201]

I found a bug with this. Whenever you kill an npc the ragdoll goes invisible but is still there. If you could fix this that would be great.

I'll look into that as soon as I can

Edit:

I Just tried it out, and nothing stays, what other addons do you have installed?

[Kung Fu Jew]

Can you let us make a list of props that will never receive damage

for example, Mad Cows Weapons has an incendiary grenade that literally burns itself to death and that's really dumb.

You'll have to find the class or model names but, ....

v2.6:
Added pdmg_exclusions.lua to the autorun directory
It has 2 tables, pdmgClassEx and pdmgModelEx if you add
anything to the tables it will be excluded from taking damages.

[Fantym420]

cis.joshb posted:

Some of them do, a lot depends on the entity it self, the way the code works is anything that doesn't have health to start with gets health based of the options (mass & vol). Also if the entity has code in it to stop health loss, it usually won't damage them.

[cis.joshb]

Vehicles?

[Fantym420]

cis.joshb posted:

Vehicles?

Vehicles are a strange story, they are some odd parented thing (my guess) , like the jeep, if you shoot the seat or close to it, it will take damage, but you can shoot the tires and other parts and no damage, the air boat is similar, and the jaloppy it's the wall behind the seat that takes the damage.

Edit:

By all that, I mean the vehicles use no special code, but are somewhat destructible.

[cis.joshb]

I think it's because only part of the vehicle has any substance. Like you can't place thrusters on the wheels.

[Kung Fu Jew]

TY so much. This script cured my cancer.

[Kung Fu Jew]

Shit, explosive barrels and such don't blow up now, they just turn into gibs and sparks

[Fantym420]

odd, they blow up for me, maybe you need to add them to the pdmg_exclusions.lua file in the model table, yea, that's what I did, here's the code for it

pdmg_exclusions.lua

-- This file is for Exclusions to the Damage System
-- Above each table is an example of how they work

-- The pdmgClassEx table will exclude all listed classes from taking damage from this addon
--pdmgClassEx = { "npc_grenade_frag", "gmod_thruster"	}
pdmgClassEx = {}

-- The pdmgModelEx table will exclude all listed models from taking damage from this addon
--pdmgModelEx = { "models/props_c17/concrete_barrier001a.mdl", "models/props_c17/canister01a.mdl"}
pdmgModelEx = { "models/props_phx/mk-82.mdl", "models/props_phx/ball.mdl", "models/props_c17/oildrum001_explosive.mdl"}

--

After I get the rest of the explosives in the list i'll commit it to the svn.

Please do this soon! Mainly because this seems really nice, and that I have no idea what you just said and what to do with that lua.
