I can design and code the menu for you with a custom menu.ini. Just let me know if you want me to. I've done all my own menus, and I helped do the menu for Telepath.
That would be great. I'm not sure which is design document, but you I'll post screenshot of menu I would like when I'll draw it, ok?

Very cool. My great Uncle built his house too. These days it isn't so easy to just do that. How old is your Grandfather?

You mean predefined explosions? Those that you define in the explosion.ini?

Oh, right! The explosion entity!

Well, first of all, if you want a visible explosion to appear, you'll need to define it in the explosion.ini. Check the online manual for details. Then you'll have to put the name of the explosion you just defined to the field 'ExplosionName'. So if you define an explosion named 'BigExplosion' in explosion.ini, you would put 'BigExplosion' in the ExplosionName for the entity.

Then the damaging.The fields 'DamageAmt' and 'DamageAltAmt' define how much damage the explosion deals to attributes defined in fields 'DamageAttribute' and 'DamageAltAttribute'. Radius is, logically, the radius inside which entitys take damage.

'ShakeAmt' is the amount of shake the explosion will cause. In other words, it defines how much the screen shakes if you are within the radius of the explosion. And 'ShakeDecay' defines how fast the shaking stops. Higher is faster.

'TriggerName' is the name of the trigger that will trigger the explosion.

Aaand if you want to attach the explosion to some other entity (pawn, static entity proxy...), you'll have to enter the entity's name to the field 'EntityName'. 'BoneName' is the bone or joint to which you want to attach the explosion. If you want to attach it to a world model you need to enter the model's name to field 'Model'.

Hi LtForce, I got your bitmap. I will work with that to put something together for a start and post it back. It will be a day or two. I have a question about - Pre. Next Cancel. I'm not sure what this means. Do you want your menu to work like a browser? I'm not sure how that would be done.
