Pressure Sensor
-
Hi guys!
I came up with an idea earlier, so I tried to make it.
I want it to be that if the pressure is greater than the temparature, the particle creates a spark.
My code is:
#include <element.h>
int update_PRSN(UPDATE_FUNC_ARGS) {
int r, rx, ry;
{
if (parts[i].temp>=256.0+273.15)
parts[i].temp=256.0+273.15;
if (parts[i].temp<= -256.0+273.15)
parts[i].temp = -256.0+273.15;
if ([y/CELL][x/CELL]>= parts[i].temp)
{
create_part(PT_SPRK)
parts[i].ctype == PT_PRSN
parts[i].life = 4;
}
return 0;
}
But it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing worng?
Thanks

I have to say this: wouldn't this break tons of saves? Maybe in an independent mod it might work. Sounds.like a good idea. Keep working at it. I'm not sure how to read such code stuff but I like where this is going. At first I thought it was a mechanical "ear". Using breakable material to pass through a detector to send a spark to a LCD display. I have been working on a project, highly classified but its almost completely out of the blue prints stage. :)

Oh so now its an element, I was thinking it was a new reaction. Sorry...thank you for disclosing this new feature in a manner people who don't understand code could also understand..your description was very vaugue, to the point of illegibility. I probably should have assumed that the word "particle" referee to a new element, but assumptions never got anybody anywhere.

To change the particle into SPRK (since that seems to be what your code is aiming to do at the moment):
#include <element.h>
int update_PRSN(UPDATE_FUNC_ARGS)
{
int r, rx, ry;
if (parts[i].temp>=256.0+273.15)
parts[i].temp = 256.0+273.15;
if (parts[i].temp<= -256.0+273.15)
parts[i].temp = -256.0+273.15;
if (pv[y/CELL][x/CELL]+273.15f >= parts[i].temp)
{
part_change_type(i, x, y, PT_SPRK);
parts[i].ctype = PT_PRSN;
parts[i].life = 4;
}
return 0;
}
To spark surrounding particles, see btry.c -

That code has worked fine, but the particle heats up when it transmitts a spark, and I don't know how to stop it...
