Does anyone know the command that modifies how big a cloak generators radius is? I swear I remember a command that modifies how big a cloak generators radius is, I just can't remember what it was.

EDIT: Never mind, I found the command you can ignore this thread now. The command was CloakRadiusInCells

EDIT: Actually since this thread already exists I'm gonna ask something else. How do I make it so units don't auto target a building?

Set IsSelectableCombatant=no and ThreatPosed to 0. Just know there is nothing to stop somthing from auto retaliating if shot by the building or object.

You can but if the ai can't retaliate it crashes (IE)

The game does not crash if the AI can't retaliate. :|

Attack the AI with a non targetable unit and see what happens.:|

Thanks guys, got it to work, one more question though. I seriously doubt this is possible, but is there a way to make it so everything in a certain radius isn't Auto targeted. I want to make it so the AI doesn't attack stuff in a certain radius until a unit has got shot at.

Fenring

I don't think you can do that, short of cloning EVERY unit in the game and making it AI only that is.

Now that I think about it... I don't think you can do that anyway.... unless GuardRange and CanRetaliate work together.

oops, it was tested on a building not a unit.

Do you sometimes have a problem remembering who people are? NM, I will also ignore you :rolleyes:

CanPassiveAquire=no

Fenring

That just means it doesn't auto-acquire. He wants a certain radius, which is doable with GuardRange, CanRetaliate=yes and CanPassiveAquire=no. However, I would advise against this since it also effects human player's units as well.

Also, Z, stop being a petty douchebag. Stop with the stupid throwaway comments. :rolleyes:

Fenring you have always been and will always be the instigator here. Don't try to blame it on me.

Until he clarifies it better my solution is the most likely one.

He wants a certain radius
We call that range :eek:

Fenring
07-08-2007, 06:29 PM
It's not always Range though. You could use GuardRange and specify the radius or use the default, you really don't know in this case. The OP wasn't very clear; however, your solution was only partly right in any case.

Also, I don't start anything. It's always you. I make a response that's not agreeing with you and automatically assume I'm insulting you. Excuse me to pieces for correcting incorrect information. :rolleyes:

I don't think you people understand what I mean. You see I made something called darkness that does just that, makes everything dark within a certain radius. http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/7323/darknessdh9.jpg


this of course is currently useless on the ai as of now. I need to make it useful on the ai, I want to be able to use my deploy it next to the enemy base stratagy on the ai :-P. I doubt it's possible though. I don't want it to be like cloak though, because then the ai wouldn't retaliate. I want the ais units to be able to shoot back but I don't want them to auto shoot at it on sight.

Fenring
07-09-2007, 05:13 PM
Oh. You can't, not in the way you describe because your "darkness" is simply reverse brightness. The AI will still see your men since it doesn't effect them in the same way.

cloak generator would work quite well because cloaked units dont get shot at, but reveal themselves on fire, allowing others to shoot back. it would be a perfect effect with the darkness generator since your men don't go completely invisible with the darkness.Fenring you have always been and will always be the instigator here. Don't try to blame it on me.

Fenring was not instigating anything, he simply corrected you on a few things you said. It was your fault that you took them personally.

We call that range :eek:

Don't be a dumbass. Obviously you are now desperately trying to get back at fenring by proving him wrong on anything you can, which you have failed to do, because radius is a more technical term and better suited his purpose. Stop being so shildish and move on with your life.

Apparently you can't read very well. Ask some to read for you then you can apologize. :dunce:

1. Get back for what?
2. I wouldn’t waste my time proving anything to fenring and he knows it.
3. So you think the wrong answer is more technical :lmao:
4. Hmmm when not forced to be defensive my posts are civilized so go back and look at who was the first "shildish".
5. You brought up this old topic just so you could start a fight. You are the biggest "shildish" between the three of us.

I meant YOU
IK, just thought I give you a chance NOT to make a complete fool out of yourself. I'm not the best modder here by far but your contributions don't even compare to mine. Yes I understand this pisses you off but I really could give a **** less.
The ONLY reason you are not banned for terminal assholeishness is hardly anyone comes here anymore.

Only the mega noobs who like being insulted by you, like you. Most everyone else only tolerates you. Go ahead use words like "twat" with other members and you will get the same reaction as you get with me.

Maybe you need to try a different game, get counseling, or meds or whatever just stay the **** away from me. My god I know I've asked you not to annoy me at least twice before, WTF. Why can't you get the hint you imbecile?

Look at this post, I was right and you were an idiot.

Fenring
07-26-2007, 07:39 AM
I don't insult anyone but you... and only when you're being a dumb ass like you are right now. I'd keep going but it would get rather mean so I'll leave it here since you just don't get it. Maybe you should just heed my advice and go away since, yet again, you're adding nothing and causing more problems than you solve. :rolleyes:

1. Get back at fenring for "insulting" your dumb ass
2. Of course you would, you are right now.
3. It's not right or wrong. It is just more technical and better suited his purpose
4. No one forces you to be defensive. But either way, your posts are useless crap so take fenring's advice and get lost.
5. i brought up this topic to add to the origional conversation AND to make you aware of the asshole idiot you are being.

I like fenring just fine. He never insults me, he is very helpful and experienced, and you are none of those to anyone in theese forums.

Take your own damn advice from that second paragraph. PLEASE, for everyone's sake.

That last sentance proves that you are trying really hard to make fenring wrong for saying anything against you.

07-26-2007, 04:24 PM

Yes you are so stfu, you haven’t earned another reply from me.

I don't insult anyone but you...
OMG, you have insulted every noob who ever posted here.

YOU start EVERY fight with me and I always try to avoid it. YOU are responsible alone.

That post by apple23 was moronic and easily ignored but YOU used it as another opportunity to insult me in hopes that I wouldn’t return here to see it.

Well you ****ed up AGAIN! When will you stop embarrassing yourself by going off on these lame self-destructive attacks?

I ask again that Fenring be banned from all but flamers until such time that he can post in accordance with the form rules.

Fenring
07-26-2007, 07:51 PM
I've never started a single fight with you. Not one time. Every single time it has been you taking a correction the wrong way, as it was every other time. I don't get why you keep trying this, it's not very effective since I've not actually insulted you since the last page, which was dumb on my part. I admit it, that was stupid but you droll on with some lame argument instead of just not posting, which would end this tirade of nonsense.

However, I just can't help but wonder... wonder if you're deliberately being so childish to goad me into a fight, which is not going to happen. For two reasons: I'm not getting into it with someone so vindictive and childish and it's not even worth my time.

As I reread page one, I have discovered that it was, in fact, you who began this tirade of crap. I replied to one of your posts with a simple "It will ignore it," which was in regards to an AI player and you took it the wrong way and replied with a sarcastic comment that was unnecessary. So, tell me again how I started this one? I'd love to know.


Also, apple23, thanks for the vote of confidence but I think it's best to just let me handle this. His beef is with me and for whatever reason, he has to pick a fight with me at every turn.

FlyingZ

I did my best to allow a neutral end before it got bad.



goad me into a fight, which is not going to happen.


No matter how you backpedal the "I will ignore it" comment was a purposeful attack. Don't attack me and you will never hear from me.

Further the fruit guy brought this topic back to make us fight, I avoided it, and you jumped at the chance.

I will accept this backpedal as an end if you do.

Fenring
07-26-2007, 08:17 PM
Not I... IT. IT! Different word. You misread my entire statement completely so, no, the end will be you admitting that you ****ed up. I absolutely refuse take any blame for this tirade of idiocy.

FlyingZ
07-27-2007, 01:14 PM
I can't believe I misread that :dismay: still it took both of us :|

My lightning rod was a beacon weapon with its own timer via weapon animation. With Selectable=no, LegalTarget=no, Insignificant=yes on the building the AI made an IE when it attempted to retaliate and couldn’t find the target.

Fenring
07-27-2007, 01:33 PM
LegalTarget only prevents normal attack... it will still accept a force-attack. Even still, the AI player should ignore insignificant objects. Maybe it's a buildings thing... if neutral units attack an AI base or its men, it will ignore it.
