For those who want to try pickup items (as seen in new Combo mode),
you can download http://files.maniaplanet.com/tools/Samp ... pItems.zip.
Unzip the content of this zip archive into your ManiaPlanet userdir (typically <userdocs>/ManiaPlanet/ , so that, in that case you have the <userdocs>/ManiaPlanet/Items/SMCommon/Pickups folder).
After extraction, restart Maniaplanet.
New items should appear in map editor, object mode (F4).
WARNING: The ManiaScript item API changed drastically. The following code doesn't work anymore with the current version of the game.
To use items in a game mode you have to create a TitlePack with a custom mode script.
First you must load the items you want to use at the beginning of your script.
Code: Select all
ItemList_Begin();
declare ArmorId = ItemList_Add("SMCommon\\Pickups\\Armor.Item.gbx");
declare RocketId = ItemList_Add("SMCommon\\Pickups\\Rocket.Item.gbx");
declare LaserId = ItemList_Add("SMCommon\\Pickups\\Laser.Item.gbx");
declare NucleusId = ItemList_Add("SMCommon\\Pickups\\Nucleus.Item.gbx");
declare ArrowId = ItemList_Add("SMCommon\\Pickups\\Arrow.Item.gbx");
ItemList_End();You can now create an item:
Code: Select all
declare ItemArmor = CreateItem(ArmorId);
If the map creator puts items on the map, and you want to spawn them in your mode (as in Combo):
Code: Select all
foreach (ItemAnchor in ItemAnchors) {
switch (ItemAnchor.ItemName) {
case "SMCommon\\Pickups\\Armor.Item.gbx": {
AttachItemToAnchor(ItemArmor, ItemAnchor);
}
}
}
- The item you want to spawn in the map
- The anchor used to spawn the item
With this you have one item in your map at the position designed by the map maker.
Now you have to manage what happen when a player pick up an item:
Code: Select all
foreach (Event in PendingEvents) {
if (Event.Type == CSmModeEvent::EType::OnPlayerTouchesItem) {
if (Event.Player != Null && Event.Player.SpawnStatus == CSmPlayer::ESpawnStatus::Spawned) {
AttachItemToPlayer(Event.Item, Event.Player);
// Do something depending on the item
// ...
PassOn(Event);
}
}
}
- The item to pick up
- The player who'll receive the item
