How do you make a vehicle?

[Wolf Lord]

Can someone tell me how to make a vehicle, or if its even possible?

I've tried everything, but I can't get it to work.

[jamieo01]

Hi wolf lord welcome to the forums. I've never done it before but I think that you first need to add a pawn entity then in the actor bit type the name of your vehicle model and in the scripts section type the gen1car.s and in the spawn order type spawn but thats how I think you do it I might be wrong you could try it and if it doesn't work wait for some one more experinced

[Wolf Lord]

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

[Wolf Lord]

No, it's not working. It's appearing, but it won't let me enter it. I've tried with several other models and I've tried my own script but it's not working. Anyone know why?

[darksmaster923]

Pretty sure the gen1car.s script isn't for an actual rideable vehicle. You're probably going to have to script it yourself. Have an order that attaches the camera to the pawn, then have another order for movement

[Jay]

Would you post your script? Maybe we can help you where it's wrong. (Moved to Scripting forum)

Ok, here it is.

(MOD EDIT: I put the script into a Code-Box for better readability)

[metal_head]

A nice scripted vehicle is pretty possible! You can script a vehicle yourself, but you won't be able to make the physics stuff like to make it roll over if you jump with only one wheel...you won't be able to do the suspension with a script too Maybe it would be possible, but you'll need 5 pawns - 4 for the wheels and 1 for the vehicle body, but that's gonna be pretty hard :/
anyway, my advice is to wait for the next RF release, where physics will be available, maybe it will be easier to make a nice vehicle.

[Wolf Lord]

Ok, thanks.

[darksmaster923]

I don't like using the sample scripts cause it references stuff you probably don't have. You're going to have to change the variables to suit the resources you have

[tgrech]

I have some script but i cant turn and accelerate at the same time and its just set to stay at the speed when i let go of accelerate and when i press the slow down button it reduces the speed and then stays at that speed, its as if it has a throttle lever instead of a pedal and again i cant turn while pressing the accelerate button.

Code: Select all

KP=self.key_pressed;
   switch(KP)
   {
     ...
   }

You should use IsKeyDown() with many if-statements instead of key_pressed with a switch-structure. Right now the script registers only the key press for a single key. And obviously that's not very good.

As I see it, the other code you posted is just a bunch of values, like a car definition. It doesn't have any actual functionality. You could of course write a script that uses these values, but I don't think it would be worth it. RF doesn't have proper physics yet, so you can't create cars that are even close to being realistic.

And last but not least: Welcome to the forums.

Thank you, i will try it soon. Someone said a few posts up that you can make a car more realistic if you create a different pawn for each wheel, has anyone tried this?

A nice scripted vehicle is pretty possible! You can script a vehicle yourself, but you won't be able to make the physics stuff like to make it roll over if you jump with only one wheel...you won't be able to do the suspension with a script too Maybe it would be possible, but you'll need 5 pawns - 4 for the wheels and 1 for the vehicle body, but that's gonna be pretty hard :/
anyway, my advice is to wait for the next RF release, where physics will be available, maybe it will be easier to make a nice vehicle.

When i try that code it just dosnt work(the vehicle), is there something i might be doing wrong?

Post the code here (only the part we're talking about)
