In a cursory look, the last post I saw was from 2014, so I'm bringing it up again.
I'd love to see about getting a trigger-system implemented in 4.15x. And if there's a way to "grease the skids" on making this happen. Kickstarter? A flat-fee type thing? I'd consider it, to be honest. Disclaimer: This post is not intended to steal the ideas and work of the people (or person) who HAVE created triggers for the FMB in HSFX. Yes. I know they are there. I'm coming at this with the notion that triggers in combat flight simulators generally all do the same thing with the same features and options... so it's not like I'm stealing intellectual property. That being said, kudos to the chap who did make triggers for the FMB as the syntax is very well done, easily editable in the FMB or in a text editor, etc.... (I edit almost 50% of my missions in notepad++)Most options are included for each trigger type.
CENTER-PRINT Message (Trigger Message) I'd like to also see the "message" trigger (I don't know who did this one). This is a Center-print message with a duration the mission builder specifies (in seconds). I don't think it can be segregated by army, but if it can, breat. Triggers can only be used once, then they are removed from the mission (they are instantiated at runtime). I'm not sure, but triggers SHOULD be EITHER "AI Only" or Not. If NOT then EITHER Humans OR AI can activate. Additional IDEAS: In addition to the triggers mentioned above (which I think are great)... play_audio_trigger A new folder would be created under samples called "trigger" or "audio" (whatever). This plays an audio file (encoded like the current requirements of custom radio audio). All players would need to have the mp3-encoded (RIFF Header) audio file and place it in the folder (see above); else, the client would not hear the audio being played. To combat this, the mission designer could use a "subtitle" field to display txt instead. If user is playing a radio, then this trigger's audio would take priority (or simply play along with it?). For encoding instructions and RADIO usage: Please see my site. ParametersNESTED Trigger with a Nested Target parameter (or a new trigger called... Trigger Group) New TAB for "Child Trigger(s)" Where one trigger can actiate multiple "child" triggers. Triggers can be nested; meaning that a trigger could activate another trigger. This might be hard to do. Last edited by Tolwyn; 07-31-2018 at 03:05 PM. |
