RELEASED Revive Objects 1.1

Tremerion submitted a new mod:

Revive Objects - revive respawn checkpoint missions

Read more about this mod...

 

very useful mod.
must have

 

I tried it out. Looks like it works on your ship. It also looks like it works with a vanilla script. Interesting that something that useful was already sitting in the game not being used like this. It looks like it was originally used on a teleporter. Can it be used on any object then? For instance, could we make a regular, interactable bed that does this? Or, maybe an alternative, working telaporter for your ship with this script?

edit: What about items? Do you think there's away for an item to activate this script? Perhaps a consumable or an active item?

edit: Wish I knew a bit of scripting. Looks like it wouldn't be hard to script a stim effect to set the player starting position at the current location of the player when taking the stim. Well, even that's a bit much for me anyways.

 

I will see if it is possible

 

Looks better than my functionally similar but far lazier flag mod for sure.

Did you include an option to turn planet-side teleporting on/off? If not a simple wire node is all it takes. Well that or a fancy GUI.

Because sometimes you just want to change the beam down point without necessarily wanting to respawn there too. Especially on planets that need EPPs(and you forget ).

Also for an object that does this... Something like an Apex pod? It would seem very immersive.

 

I did not include such option. Don't know how

Apex pod, noted Will do

 

It's a optional argument to the function setting the spawn point. I can't tell you more than that... I'm on mobile. You can see what I mean in my world start modifier... Or whatever I called it. It's a lazy mod I put together in 5 minutes lol. I patched the flags to have wire nodes. Not very elegant or immersive.

So you hook up a flag to a switch or a door etc, and can remove it after if you want. Interacting works like normal flags do.

The code is very simple. You can use it yourself if you decide you want it, but that's up to you.

I'll probably use your mod over my own for appearance/immersion sake.

edit:
Well I'm home now,

Not much too it. I patched the flags to have a couple nodes and a script. This is the script I added to the flags.

Code:

function init()
 
end

function onNodeConnectionChange(args)
 
end

function onInputNodeChange(args)
  if object.getInputNodeLevel(0) then
    world.setPlayerStart(object.position(), object.getInputNodeLevel(1))
  end
end

So yeah... not my most impressive work. Like I say, I put the mod together in about 5 minutes time LOL.

But I would explain that world.setPlayerStart() takes 2 arguments.
1. The position of the new beamdown/spawn point
2. A boolean value that indicates if you should respawn on that planet(instead of the ship) when you die on that planet.

 

Can you add vanilla checkpoint object craftable (that used in standart missions)? Thanks

 

Ofcourse it will be added in an update, alongside with Apex Pod

 

Tremerion updated Revive Objects with a new update entry:
