/* Frank Condello 09.28.98 - originally for the M.A.H.E.M. MacQuake Mod. Now used in paroxysm EMAIL: pox@planetquake.com WEB: http://www.planetquake.com/paroxysm/ ========================================================================= This is the code for Moving Light Entities (Dynamic Lights) It's basically identical to the the func_train code with out stuff like damage and blocked code used for solid objects. The light follows Targets and waits just like a train. A new variable (dynlight_style) defines the type of light emitted. Quake has only three dynamic light styles: 1 - Dimlight 2 - Brightlight 3 - Brightfield (Brightlight with 'shimmering' particles) Dynamic Light can also be triggered, They currenty only start turned off. */ .float dynlight_style; void() dynlight_next; void() dynlight_find; void() start_dynlight = { //POX v1.1 - changed this for QW support //No EF_BRIGHTFIELD in QW - defaults to EF_DIMLIGHT if (self.dynlight_style == 2) self.effects = self.effects | EF_BRIGHTLIGHT; else if (self.dynlight_style == 4) self.effects = self.effects | EF_BLUE; else if (self.dynlight_style == 5) self.effects = self.effects | EF_RED; else self.effects = self.effects | EF_DIMLIGHT; dynlight_next(); }; void() dynlight_wait = { if (self.wait) self.nextthink = self.ltime + self.wait; else self.nextthink = self.ltime + 0.1; self.think = dynlight_next; }; void() dynlight_next = { local entity targ; targ = find (world, targetname, self.target); self.target = targ.target; if (!self.target) objerror ("dynlight_next: no next target"); if (targ.wait) self.wait = targ.wait; else self.wait = 0; SUB_CalcMove (targ.origin - self.mins, self.speed, dynlight_wait); }; void() dynlight_find = { local entity targ; targ = find (world, targetname, self.target); self.target = targ.target; setorigin (self, targ.origin - self.mins); if (!self.targetname) { // not triggered, so start immediately self.nextthink = self.ltime + 0.1; self.think = start_dynlight; } }; void() dynlight_use = { if (self.think != dynlight_find) return; // already activated start_dynlight(); }; void() dyn_light = { precache_model ("progs/null.spr"); if (!self.speed) self.speed = 100; if (!self.target) objerror ("dyn_light without a target"); self.solid = SOLID_NOT; self.movetype = MOVETYPE_PUSH; self.use = dynlight_use; self.classname = "dynlight"; setmodel (self, "progs/null.spr"); setsize (self, '0 0 0', '0 0 0'); setorigin (self, self.origin); // start trains on the second frame, to make sure their targets have had // a chance to spawn self.nextthink = self.ltime + 0.1; self.think = dynlight_find; };
