RP thing idea

A scope.

I can't think of what they are called in particular.

===O

you look in one end and far off the other end shows

a one lensed binoculars thing,

BLARGH

anyways, you go into a scope screen and it can show 1-5 levels away, it also allows you to move it around to find people coming to attack kingdoms etc. It'd be more realistic etc.

You mean like the MAP?

We could also use the scope script and make it into a catapalt.
You get to look 5 levels away but then there is a button you press and it fires a cannon ball or so.

Of course it would take alot of iron to make a cannon ball though

Nothing at all like it, when in scope mode its like character movement except faster. You actually see the people up close. Maybe a way to block out chat if possible...really hard to script x.x

a Spyglass or a monocular

i think spyglass is what you mean, they fold up.... the pirate guys in the look out use them and then yell LAND HO! yeah you know what i mean

like the g2k2 palm tree lookout? that'd be cool but why would a spyglass fire a cannonball? that's lame

you could give kingdoms long rang cannons though

No, he means the cannonball aiming can be like the scope looking.

This would be awesome, but REALLY hard to script.

Oh, well right on... but have a spyglass and the cannon stuff be two completely different ideas...

the aimer thingy for a cannon is called the sight, they don't have scopes lol

you could have like a gani where he bends down and looks down the sights and then it takes you to the aiming mode thing, that'd be cool

Yeah, lol I didn't plan on using the scope thing to shoot cannonballs ;]. Maybe this is where funds can come in? Cannonballs can be 300 gralet each and are found at the properly named "Kingdom Store" which I can make. You can also maybe find those ladders Samurai had and many other one time use items XD..I just made an idea that might work

Lugie:

When I ran the Celt kingdom on 2001 a while back, we were going to stick a catapult on the roof.

But it didn't quite work out after all.

NPC Code:
setfocus x,y;

Sparkplug · #15 06-28-2002, 10:12 AM

That would be cool to have,

Brad · #16 06-28-2002, 10:30 AM

Holy:
Sort of like when you're atop a tree on 2k2?

WHIPENIE4 · #17 06-28-2002, 10:45 AM

Um.. Well in a telescope whatever you look into it forward.. if this was possible you'd be looking at the people from a top view, unless graal was 3d. So I think its safe to say that this is impossible... never know though.

ghostsamurai · #18 06-28-2002, 11:14 AM

it wouldnt be that hard, just make an npc that makes you fly, makes you invisible, makes it so you cant enter inside levels, and makes it so when you press A, you get warped back to your original location

maybe make it so you can only move in one diretion with it (the directoin you are facing) and after you change levels 5 times, it warps you back

If it's like that, it's easy to make.

Before Dustari was torn apart, we were going to get an observatory on top of the red tree platform that was going to use the setfocus script
