Title: Scripting Question
Post by: Worf359Alpha on October 09, 2010, 12:52:15 AM

Can any one tell me where to find the script that controls the weapon impact aganst a unsheilded ship, that is to say when a phaser or pulse or torpedo strikes a ship and then the ship reacts from the impact by rolling or changing heading, I have some torpedo scripts like my Quantum Torpedos set with a pretty high damage rating and some ships take a hit and then do a 360, i have tried setting the ships mass higher but this does not help much and i would like to tone this down a bit, any help would be greatfullt appreciated! Thx!

Should be controlled by scripts\Custom\NanoFXv2\ExplosionFX\ExpFX.py

particularly this part

Code: [Select]

       ### Add Rotational Spin to Ship From Torp Explosion 25% Chance##
        if (App.g_kSystemWrapper.GetRandomNumber(100) < 25):
            if (pEvent.GetDamage() >= 200):
The second line determines the chance a rotation will occur and the third how much damage has to be done to the ship to trigger the effect.

PS: You can disable rotations completely by turning off "Critical Hit Rotations"/"RotationFX" in the NanoFX config panel.

I wonder if we can make it ship specific, doubt it, so I will not try YET.
