BaronOfStuff Posted September 15, 2015 Looks fairly obvious to me. "Bad numeric constant "Super"" -POINT OF ADVICE- Actually read the goddamn error messages. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted September 15, 2015 You can't use scope operators for properties, only for the goto instruction. In any case, you don't need to use it. Just delete entirely your height and radius lines, since it will, by default, use the values inherited from the parent actor. So it will do exactly what you want it to do by default. 0 Share this post Link to post

Wrong You didn't see the code exactly... The height of object is equal to it's parent's radius... The radius of object is equal to it's parent's height...

Edward850 Posted September 16, 2015 He did read your code, as he clearly pointed out that you can't use scope operators as numerical constants. As did ZDoom itself. He then pointed out you don't even need them, as the properties are inherited. What more do you want from us? 0 Share this post Link to post

Edward850 Posted September 16, 2015 I don't see a number anywhere in the string "Super::Height". You can't just make up syntax. ZDoom expects an actual number. 0 Share this post Link to post

Why you guys don't look good enough ???!!! Look it again... The items are inherited , but their properties are reversed !!!!! 0 Share this post Link to post

Edward850 Posted September 16, 2015 The Doommer said:A zdoom article... Bullshit. It's not even remotely valid, and such madness is nowhere to be found on the wiki.The Doommer said:So why SLADE is highlighting them ??!!! Because both Super (the state keyword for parent states) and Radius are valid keywords. However, what you're trying to do isn't even remotely valid, and isn't even necessary because all properties are inherited anyway. The wiki has a full page explaining inheritance, and it even shows you the proper usage of the Super keyword, used for state flow control. 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted September 16, 2015 The Doommer said:Aren't Super::Height & Super::Radius variables containing a number ????!!!! Height and radius are numeric constants - as in "values that are always the same when executed". Given that your horizontal barrel is basically a rectangle, setting a radius for it could have unexpected consequences. A couple of strategically placed invisible bridge things for each barrel might work better. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ok , Got it (but i'm saying for a hundred time that i'm giving it's super height for it's radius & it's super height for it's radius. Got it or not ???)

GreyGhost Posted September 16, 2015 Check the barrel sprite name. If it's not BARLA0, you'll need at least 5 sprites for a full rotation. As for the others, check that you don't have duplicate actor definitions. The Doommer said:Ok , Got it (but i'm saying for a hundred time that i'm giving it's super height for it's radius & it's super height for it's radius. Got it or not ???) I think he's got it, but that doesn't alter the fact that you can't use the "Super::" scope operator to set actor properties. So , which types of actors are using radius and which ones doesn't ? You can probably set a radius for any actor, but when they don't have a more-or-less circular footprint that property setting becomes a bit of a compromise. Assuming it's based on the Doom barrel - your horizontal barrel's length is roughly double its width or height, swapping the parent actor's height and radius (as you're proposing to do) will halve the barrel's apparent height, double the length and quadruple the width. 0 Share this post Link to post

Let me ensure... A0 for barrel , corpses , etc ,... A1-A7 , B1-B7 , etc for Monsters , Players , Projectiles , Weapons , etc...

Arctangent Posted September 16, 2015 The Doommer said:Can i use this ? You cannot. It'd be redundant, anyway. An actor's properties are, by default, the exact same as its parent. Thus, there is no actual situation where what you're trying to do is relevant, since you're basically telling ZDoom to do what it's already doing. 0 Share this post Link to post
