velocity transport
« on: August 2, 2004 05:21 pm CDT »
I thought it would be cool to make an npc that would activate a script to set a player's velocity so that they would fly straight into the air, then at a certain altitude, it would set their velocity so that they would go in a new direction ( North, South, East, or West) then basically it would set you down wherever you had told the npc you needed to go.  This npc could accept dragon scales as payment since they are pretty rare.  This could be a cool addition to the server.  I might put it on a server one day, when i host.

hmm... sinister... you must be my alternate personality... or you just happen to think as I do.

I would go about it a little different though... I would do it with little flags that, when crossed, would initiate the next setvelocity.

I knew I should have posted about this last week when I remembered it and I was actually at the boards.  Doh!

It's my idea now beotch :lol:  hehehehe.

Or you could edit the map and add a springboard or such that launches you into the air, then somewhere overhead you could add an invisible telepoint....that telepoint could drop you into another telepoint and so on until you reach your destination.  I used to do this on some of my old shifter maps that I made.  It's a pretty cool effect.  That retarded red flash when you go through the teleporters should be taken out if this is implemented tho.

I like that idea..  you should probably charge something a little less rare for the main towns, like e-stones, and charge dscales for the higher zones like uberzone.  It would also be cool if each town had a giant ramp, and the end of your setvelocity would set you to slide down it =)
