I was bored, Gamma wrote the basic script.

Still tweaking it. Need to change up the timing.

So I am guessing its attached to the flashlight status?

Yeah.
(script continuous bombs
(begin
(sleep_until (= (unit_get_current_flashlight_state (unit (list_get (players) 0))) true))
(sleep 25)
(effect_new effects\airstrike\fighter fighter)
(sleep 16)
(effect_new effects\airstrike\start bombs)
(sleep 900)
(sleep_until (= (unit_get_current_flashlight_state (unit (list_get (players) 0))) false))
)
)
Script is useless without the effects, which are the tricky part.

Do a MAC cannon >:V

Nice to see it's not a nuke. Would it be possible to drop ODST's? Hit "Q" then have the ODST drop pods then spawn in the AI.

I did what? And @ Nexus, probably. If only I had ODST drop pod animated scenery, I could write a script for that.

I said you wrote the basic script.
All I did was make the effects and add the sleep commands.

thats a preaty crappy script.. whats the point of having the latest player to join able to spawn an explosion at a set point every so often?... and the begin at the start of your script is slowing down its execution by 1/30th of a second

what you want to do is

(global short number 0)
(global short currentairstrike 0)
(global boolean activate false)

(script continuous airstrikeinitiate
(if (and (= (unit_get_current_flashlight_state (unit (list_get (players) NUMBER))) 1) (= active 0)
(begin
(unit_set_desired_flashlight_state (unit (list_get (players) NUMBER)) 0)
(set currentairstrike number)
(set activate 1)
))

(set number (+ number 1))
(if (= (> number 15) 1) (set number 0))
)
(script continuous airstrikepart2
(sleep_until (= activate 1) 1)
(object_create_anew fighterbomberscenery)
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) currentairstrike)) "body" fighterbomberscenery "newlycreatedmarkeraround100feetbelow")
(objects_detach (unit (list_get (players) currentairstrike)) fighterbomberscenery)
(scenery_animation_start fighterbomberscenery "scenery\fighterbomber\random flying animation" "swoop and bomb")
(sleep 60)
(effect_new_on_object_marker "scenery\fighterbomber\effects\nukespawn" figherbomberscenery "primary trigger")
(sleep 60)
(object_destroy fighterbomberscenery)
(set active 0)
)


and id suggest you add some form of ammo (a volume trigger or something that monitors who has picked up airstrikes, etc.) the animation is just the thing moving across the sky, the marker somewhere in the middle a few hundred feet below it (just so it doesnt fly threw montains) nad the animation to have it just glide threw.. make it so about 2 seconds into the animation, its like 30 feet ahead of where 0,0,0 (that would be above who called it in.. we dont wana bomb them, we wana bomb who evers infront of them) and then just have the map have nice montain walls so they dont see where it flys off to before it disapers, and when it flys in.

It was for SP. As I said, I was bored. Also, the fighterbomber is not a scenery. It's a projectile.

Thats CAD, hes excellent at stuff like that. He just didnt have a longsword fly in and drop a bomb. The way CAD did it was like a MAC, but with missiles. And the beeping sound he has sounds like the Halo 3 Missile Pod sound. Extracted probably.

um... what??

I was going to to that for my Rods of God, but then I didn't.

Stop using that horrible name.

Blame the United States Government for making up that name.

When you stop using that horrible AVI :p

As I said, It's taking over the forum.

You should try making the flood pods like in Halo 3. The ones that break apart and release the parasite or the elites and marines.

ive had halo3 sincei it came out. and ive actually never seen the flood pod. Well ive seen flood come from the sky like in the last level. But i dont think Bungie even made a model for it. I think it was just a effect and flood spawned where it landed. Though do correct me if im wrong.

Your wrong.

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Flood_Dispersal_Pod

O.o they look good. if i have time. I make a model of that. (untextured) and maybe do a public release. (thats if i make it.)

Hammer of Dawn FTW!!!111

Dang it, I was going to add an airstrike/Hammer of Dawn thing in my new level, where you have to somehow get the enemy vehicles into a large open area, and then press 'Q' at the right moment, then would trigger UNSC ships (converted into behicle tags, courtesty of Trepdation) running on recorded anims, and blow them up. Someone beat me to it >:(

Anyway, I saw the Longsword disappear at the end part, which made it not exactly good. Increase the length that the script sleeps before object_destroy. Also, I don't think that's the full script you used; it dosen't mention the Longsword at all.

The longsword is a projectile, spawned in the effect. I think.

0_o I did it with a vehicle running on recorded anims, and spawning the effect at a presice moment.

Actually, a good way to do it was to get an AI to drive it (like in DMT silent photographer) and switch the primary trigger to a bomb. Then use a command list and script to get the AI to move forward fire at a certain location. It is possible, however tedious. It will looks more realistic.

Why not just have the primary fire the red lazer then have the secondary fire actually shoot the rocket. That way it has ammo.
