How to have DR to show all spawnargs of an entity ?


Recommended Posts

"model" "-"
"editor_model model" "Click this line then the 'choose model' button below. You must select a model as there is no default."

 

Those 2 are enough to get it to show up under inherited spawnargs, and to show help text. If you want it to show up without the user clicking "inherited", set a default value too:

 

"editor_setKeyValue model" "Select a model here(essential)"

Well, I added "editor_radius" "300" to the entityDef, but it doesn't show up by default. I'd have to right click and add it.

 

I assume the following will not show up by default either and I'd have to right click to add it:

 

"radius" "300"

"editor_radius" "radius"

 

So do I need to do this:

 

"editor_setKeyValue" "radius"

 

in order to not have to right click to add it ? What about default value ?

It should be:

 

"radius" "300"

"editor_float radius" "Radius of the light effects"

"editor_setKeyValue radius" "300"

 

Note the spaces within the quotes. The _float bit isn't a repeat of the spawnarg name, it's the data type which tells DR which icon to use and which type of selector button to use (if any). My example was confusing because both the spawnarg name and the data type were "model". But the above is how to set it up for your parameter.

 

The "model" "300" looks kind of redundant if you're using editor_setKeyValue as well, but it could be needed for any future entity defs that inherit from this one, and that don't set the radius themselves.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).

      Well then, it's been about a week since I released my first FM and I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised by its reception. I had expected half as much interest in my short little FM as I received and even less when it came to positive feedback, but I am glad that the aspects of my mission that I put the most heart into were often the most appreciated. It was also delightful to read plenty of honest criticism and helpful feedback, as I've already been given plenty of useful pointers on improving my brushwork, level design, and gameplay difficulty.
      I've gotten back into the groove of chipping away at my reading and game list, as well as the endless FM catalogue here, but I may very well try my hand at the 15th anniversary contest should it materialize. That is assuming my eyes are ready for a few more months of Dark Radiant's bright interface while burning the midnight oil, of course!
