Title: DSL Tourney Arena Starting Points Idea and Assistance
Post by: RedAce on August 28, 2014, 12:55:27 PM
I really have no idea to put a thread like this into. If I'm posting this in the wrong place (which is very possible) can you please move this? Thanks.


Basically I'm trying to edit the DSL Tournament Arena so that start points are in a different location.

Right now, the start points for players 1 & 2 are at the far edge of the arena and players 3 & 4 are at the close edge of the arena.

What I wanted to do was edit the py or gmf file to move the start points around to something like this:

My idea was to edit the arena to have the start points for players 1 & 3 to start at the far edge and players 2 & 4 to start at the close edge of the arena.

What exactly do I have to edit in the py or gmf file in order to do this?


Help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hate to respond twice, but I still need some help with this. Does anyone exactly know what to change to switch the starting point locations? Thanks.

Find this part in the .gmf file:
Code: [Select]
*NODE_NAME Point01
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME Point01
*TM_ROW0 1 0 0
*TM_ROW1 0 1 0.000001
*TM_ROW2 0 -0.000001 1
*TM_ROW3 -0.797273 4.755553 -13.47725
}
USER DATA type = startpoint

id = 1
}
*GMID_ATTACHMENTPT
{
*NODE_NAME Point02
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME Point02
*TM_ROW0 -1 0.000002 -0.000002
*TM_ROW1 0.000002 1 -0.000003
*TM_ROW2 0.000002 -0.000003 -1
*TM_ROW3 -0.797273 4.755554 13.50001
}
USER DATA type = startpoint

id = 2
}
*GMID_ATTACHMENTPT
{
*NODE_NAME Point03
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME Point03
*TM_ROW0 0 0 -1
*TM_ROW1 0.000001 1 0
*TM_ROW2 1 -0.000001 0
*TM_ROW3 -10.92125 4.755554 0.011382
}
USER DATA type = startpoint

id = 3
}
*GMID_ATTACHMENTPT
{
*NODE_NAME Point04
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME Point04
*TM_ROW0 0 -0.000001 1
*TM_ROW1 0.000001 1 0.000001
*TM_ROW2 -1 0.000001 0
*TM_ROW3 9.326702 4.755554 0.011381
}
USER DATA type = startpoint

I think you would need to edit the first number in TM_ROW3.....think that is, but I am not sure.
