  • So yah, I abused a whole bunch of entities and made a two digit display that you can add to or subtract from. Also, you can push one of those four buttons in the back to overclock it. Sorry, it doesn't overheat and burn up. Yet.

    (I don't think a screenshot is really worth it, but I'll put one here if people want it)

    Btw, that electro gun was originally going to be a method for calculating square roots - you can actually do that with trajectories if you set it up right. But, the results depended too much on what sys_tickrate was set to, so it didn't work out. You can still fire it by pressing the button next to it though. It actually just fires invisible electro balls, it seems like nexuiz is ignoring the 'model' key. Oddly, setting 'modelindex' to that of an existing electro ball seems to work.

    I also put an easter egg in this. Bugs are hard to find and always win in the end. No more hints for you :).

  • Cool, You should still enable the sqr root thing , put an info thing saying what tic rate is required (base off of the default I guess). This is cool :)

  • For this, there is the _setmodel helper function: in the message field, do

    model models/... $ _setmodel

    You can call "setsize" the same way:

    mins '...' maxs '...' $ _setsize
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
