Still can't get my mod to work!
-
I am still having a lot of trouble with getting my custom elements to change when in contact with other elements.
My code:
BANG: http://pastebin.com/KqTMNQ22
BBNG: http://pastebin.com/iK16QSYS
BANG should make BBNG on contact with EXOT. MBNG should be formed when BBNG meets NEUT. I also am having trouble with case-by-case reactions (BBNG reacting differently to PROT and ELEC, for example) and tinkering with the explosive powers of the elements. I have not given the code for MBNG as it works.

For the first problem, change line 70 "if ((r&0xFF)==PT_EXOT && (r&0xFF)==PT_BBNG)" to "if ((r&0xFF)==PT_BBNG)"
Although I thought I told you to do that already ...
For the second one, it's a bit strange. phot/neut/elec/prot actually aren't stored in pmap, they are stored in a similar thing called photons. Change the code around 62-64 to:r = pmap[y+ry][x+rx];
if (!r)
r = photons[y+ry][x+rx];
if (!r)
continue;
For the possible third problem, i'm not sure what exactly it is but it might depend on how the PROT or ELEC are moving? idk.Edited 2 times by jacob1. Last: 23rd May 2014 -
Got this error:
How does one declare "photons" in a way that evades the error?
I also changed the code that you said would fix problem 1 (used outdated paste) and it still didn't work.
Regarding the third problem, nucular has made a case-reaction system. Their mod is in the Powder Toy mods discussion. Use the link to the repository and find the element RVRS (reversium).

Declaring means that you'd have to create another data structure named photons, but that's not an okay solution, you need to access an existing one. In a simulation function you can access pmap withpmap
but you'll have to access photons by the simulation object, aka replace every instance ofphotons
in your code withsim->photons

Okay, so no build errors, but the elements are still not changing - instead, they disappear. Why is this happening?
This is my second try at modding TPT (I tried once but I didn't decide to use the forums); I originally gave up due to errors of this sort that I could not fix.
