So, here's a post to several issues (bugs?) I saw today-- and the reason
that I am posting them here.

1-- Github would NOT let me set up a password. It wouldn't accept anything I tried
I tried many variations. So long story short- no github for me- yet.

2-- I had a rocket launcher man shooting two (2-- rpg) rockets at once at me. Is this typical?
I thought it was funny though. Also there is still plenty of issue with characters
not being animated, just sliding across the ground.

3-- Zombies (and every other stock GG AI character) loves the water. They can
run through it just as easily as cotton candy-- well maybe easier, and if there was
a person who wanted to be safe on the other side of a river, no such luck. I knew
about this long time ago, just posting it presently.

4-- I am still having unexplained issues with the screen settings (ambience / surface level)
etc. I don't know where the problem lies. My script changes them, but checks their values
before hand, then resets them to the original map levels afterward-- (it's supposed to.)
The values seem to not only go mostly dark, but random values -- so hu?
I checked dozens of times... what is it?

Guess that'll do for now, folks.

I know of this issue as well. I think only Lee can help us out here? IF you try to "save" the settings via lua and then output them, it does not reflect the same appearance in game.

2) No it is not typical that a rocket guy shoots two rockets. I can replicate this.
Characters that slide have the wrong animation frames in their scripts. This can happen if a script is not made for a character

3) You need to script movement in water yourself. Standard AI scripts have no behavior for this.

4) DO not use the slider values.
Here is a list with the convert values for the sliders:


So it should look like this:
SetFogNearest(slidervalue*100.0)


DO not ask why and GG transform these values, it is how it is and I think nobody will change it soon. We could add a flag for slider values to these commands (setter; getter), but the system itself will not change, I think.

Strange, but that would be GREAT Corno_1 if that works. Thanks so much.

BTW I see no method to extract Brightness and Contrast (ex GetBrightness/ GetContrast)??

Not your fault, but that doesn't make using them in a script seem much useful?

Edit... Thanks community.
I must keep things simple when start scripting!
