I scripted a weapon (*waits for the nasty anti-griefer comments to stop*).
It fires a round every 2 seconds.
It does no damage.
It counts points.
I have the push command fine. I have tried it in 50 variations. I have two dilemmas.
1) It always pushes in the same direction. I can't seem to figure out how to get it to always push AWAY from the object hitting it...
llPushObject(llDetectedKey(0), impulse_vec, impulse_angle_vec, FALSE);
- Tried zero vectors
- tried calculating the directional velocity of the object
Just doesn't work.
2) I got it to get its own mass and the mass of what it hits. I have a flat rate impulse vector and i multiple by the difference. Pushes, for the most part, the same. Then i shoot a .5m physics applied default sphere... 'your object went offworld...' It just doesn't make sense.
I'm not griefing or making weapons for Jesse. I'm trying to make a game with some realism. You get hit you get knocked back a meter. But I can't get it to work.

Why not set the local Flag? That will push the target in the direction the bullet is pointed.

Did that too. Keeps going off in a different direction.
i think i am messing up the vectors no matter how i apply them.

and the local flag pushes the target in the direction relating to the target, not the bullet.

Try this:
llPushObject(avkey, llVecNorm(llGetVel()) * force, ZERO_VECTOR, FALSE);
I did a quick and dirty test by throwing a cube at myself. Seems to work.
