Camera turn

Post by Bytes »

On maps with rhomboid axes, some turns (I think it's left ones) my camera doesn't fully turn to the direction i'm facing.
The only thing i altered prior to this happening was custom_camera_180_turn_speed from 5 to 8 so I don't think that was it.
Other people have the same problem. Any ideas?

Can you give the MAP_FILE for such a map, or better yet, produce a small debug recording?

So this is on CTWF maps such as 'Who bent my fortress?'.
I've taken a recording.

voila

one of the 2 maps he is refering to is

Code: Select all

MAP_FILE ed/wildfort/twisted_little_bear-0.0.2.aamap.xml(http://crazy-tronners.com/resource/ed/wildfort/twisted_little_bear-0.0.2.aamap.xml)
The code that changes the axes to work this way.

Code: Select all

<Axes number="4" normalize="false">
<Axis angle="45"/>
<Axis angle="0"/>
<Axis angle="225"/>
<Axis angle="180"/>
</Axes>
edit: I guess he is refering to this map, but it has the same design, i'm sure both result in same error

Code: Select all

MAP_FILE kyle/fortress/twixted_fortress-0.0.2.aamap.xml(http://crazy-tronners.com/resource/kyle/fortress/twixted_fortress-0.0.2.aamap.xml)

Thanks, Fixed it for 0.2.8.3.3 if there ever will be one (this isn't exactly important enough to make me do a release of that) and future usual snapshots. It will be a couple of hours before it appears on the bzr branches, sf svn is kind of slow for me today.

Thanks Z-man.
So how do I implement the fix?

Well, the released builds will be located in SourceForge.net under ArmagetronAd project.

I'm not entirely sure but those builds will appear in either of these places:
Armagetron Advanced - 0.2.8 snapshots
Armagetron Advanced - trunk snapshots
Armagetron Advanced - hacks snapshots

I think a better link may be to the weekly builds. Then he can either go with the updated package or 0install links to update easier, depending on what all he does with it.
