holoEntity(5):setModelScale(vec(0.02,0.02,0.02)) isnt working on holos why?

the bug: Bolts = shootBolt(holoEntity(14400598):toWorld(vec(0,0,0)),holoEntity(14400598):forward()) doing this with the turret near a wall causing the bolts to nail the wall behind it

what? Bug? with chair? serius?

ok @Tenndex care to explain? cause i can show you how im doing it

anyone else having trouble with propSpawnASync(enable) not functioning?

Works for me just fine.

ok sooo with this core its neat but the shootbolt has a MAJOR flaw. despite the holo it shoots from its not spawning from that holo! and i have to make sure the turret isnt near any walls or the bolt shoots backwards for some reason

On a server am having problems with n=propCanCreate() not detecting the e=propSpawn(svan) rate limit since this was added, believe the check may be getting overridden thinking propSpawnASync(n) is enabled.

my E2 is crashing whenever i use findClosestCentered(), the error says this:
entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/antcore.lua:746: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'x' (a nil value)
as far as i can tell it's doing this only if it finds an entity, regardless of what i tell it to do with said entity or what i put in the pos/direction fields

could you guys perhaps add onto this the option to fire things like missiles and ar2 alt fire stuff? would be nice for a defense system im working on'


if you can anyways thank you.

thank you i forgot about that XD

@SANDERS
You could try holoEntity(400):toWorld(vec(-20,0,0)) instead of holoEntity(400):pos()

@idiosyncratic big fridge united
I either added setVelocity before propSetVelocity existed, or it wasn't in the e2 propcore version I was using at the time and yeah reverse compatibility and laziness

@Ellie yeah the gun's client side hit scan ignores changes to the hitbox, so that can't really be fixed in the extension sorry, the extension just calls glua's inbuilt resizing functions

Lol

so question im doing this: if(clk("fire")&ClearSight){Bolt=shootBolt(holoEntity(400):pos()+vec(-0,0,0),holoEntity(400):up()*Dist,5000) soundPlay(10,0.2,"@weapons/alyx_gun/alyx_gun_fire5.wav") and it works but i wanna know if there is a way i can change the spawn location of the bolt to be closer to the holo its controlled by?

is there a reason setVelocity exists when propSetVelocity is a thing or is it there for backwards compatibility?

Oh yeah that works but for example if i get a stove and resize it visually an physically its hitbox wont work. If you shoot it there will be no "clink" sound effect of bullets hitting it and bullets will pass through it. I know the hitbox is there because players cant walk through it and projectiles hit it. Its just the bullets, I also found that even tho the bullets pass through if an enemy is inside a resized sphere for example blood will come out due to the bullets hitting him but no damage will be dealt

try E:setModelScale for visual scaling

SetPhysScale(N) doesn't work correctly(I think). It resizes the props boundary box but the prop stays the same(unlike prop resizer where you can also see the prop resizing, despite not touching model scale). Furthermore the props collision is also messed up, you cant walk through the invisible barrier the props sets up but you can shoot through it, except projectiles. Would be amazing if you could make it perform the same as prop resizer(altering the phys scale alters the prop and its collision)

doing Dist = 3500*(Find:pos()-holoEntity(1):pos()):normalized():length() works thank you

lies fake false made up fabrication untrue nonsense i would never the only one here who made a -rep on their rep score is antonymus who made up these lies!

pongo has been arrested by the namibian government under 67 charges relating to international terrorism and war crimes and AntCore does not condone getting caught for that

Hello, the createMech() function seems to be broken???? Also this "Pongo" person seems very smart and handsome you should add this user to the owner list.

dont do that code posted below it will delete your pc

more like formerly poop's

do Vel = 3500*(Find:pos()-holoEntity(1):pos()):normalized()

-rep -rep dont trust addon stole my name tag

keyed and luapilled

but when they are fired they dont fly the same dist that the weapon itself work

the bolts speed limit 3500 is per component (x,y,z) so if you set its total velocity to a value that's too high, then one or more of the components will be limited to 3500 will change the direction
tldr: not possible to make it faster without it changing direction, oof bruh moment

ok so question when using the bolt function and doing it like this

Dist = (Find:pos()-holoEntity(1):pos()):length()*2 works well but putting the number above say 4 causes the bolts to fly out sideways how can i up the speed without this issue?

when the pongo core sus

thumbs up +rep good working condition on purchase will +rep when home

i got the addon on git up and it gives me a error everytime i tried to spawn in a prop so i looked for what was causing it and i got down to propSpawnASync it breaks prop spawn for some reason heres the error
sv: Expression 2 (generic): entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/prop.lua:36: bad argument #1 to 'IsValidProp' (string expected, got nil)

Is there any chance that player:setClip2 could be added?

WIOW A RARE UPDATE GOD SPEED GOOD SIR !!

fix

Yo antony, there’s a crash bug involving killing npcs with inf() damage crossbow bolts rn that you might wanna patch. It takes a sec but will reliably crash every client on the server when it happens.
Code 2 reproduce:

@name funny bolt
shootBolt( entity():pos() + entity():forward()*100, entity():forward()*500, inf() )
# point chip at nearest npc
# make sure bolt hits npc
# wait like 5 sec
# BAM

if (entRemoveClk()) { }

Hi! Is there a way to check if the current execution of the chip was caused by "runOnEntRemove"?

processors don't like the github version of wiremod

nevermind.

antcore is disabled, how do I enable it?

Check server console for e2 errors

wait none of the functions are showing up!

No such function: shootBolt(vector, angle, number). hmm this was working on a server but it does not work on mine. also it doesn't show ip in the E2Helper menu. where did you go shootBolt. :(

Ah, thank you

it's vanilla but disabled by default https://github.com/wiremod/wire/blob/master/lua/entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/prop.lua

Small question: Where's PropCore? I can't find it anywhere, it said in a few posts it comes with wires unofficial extras but it isn't in there
