How to OCL something at random position [Solved]

coolfile · 08-20-2004, 08:40 AM

I use OCLUpdate to create some objects around a Unit. but it seems that the disposition setting only works for CreateDebris. :dead: All of them are created at the position of the creator.
How to create some objects at random positions around the creator. here is my code. what's going wrong?

Code:

ObjectCreationList OCL_ChinaBlackLotusSuperInternetVirus
  CreateObject
    ObjectNames = BlackLotusSuperInternetVirus
    Disposition = RANDOM_FORCE SEND_IT_FLYING
    Offset = X:0 Y:0 Z:10
    Count = 1
    MinForceMagnitude = 10
    MaxForceMagnitude = 20
    SpinRate = 180
    MinForcePitch = 0
    MaxForcePitch = 90
  End
End

Thanks for any help.

Code:

ObjectCreationList OCL_ChinaBlackLotusSuperInternetVirus 
  CreateObject
    ObjectNames = BlackLotusSuperInternetVirus
    Disposition = LIKE_EXISTING
    Count = 1
  End
End

simple as that

No, it isn't what I want. there should be some distance between those objects and the creator.

give it a " Offset = *Coords* "

random postions they should be.

It works!

Code:

ObjectCreationList OCL_ChinaBlackLotusSuperInternetVirus
  CreateObject
    ObjectNames = BlackLotusSuperInternetVirus
    Count = 3
    SpreadFormation = Yes
    MinDistanceAFormation = 50.0
    MinDistanceBFormation = 50.0
    MaxDistanceFormation = 150.0
  End
End

Thanks a lot, Maddoc and everyone gave out helps.
