Vehicle Energy
by Neil Marshall · in Torque Game Engine · 07/07/2003 (7:25 pm) · 6 replies
Are there any existing functions that will reduce the energy on the vehicle or is that something I'm going to have to program?
I see a setEnergyLevel function and it appears to work, but I can't find any functions that would reduce it.

Well, I was looking in the script, but I'm probably going to have to adjust it in C++ for what I want to do (eventually).

The vehicle script I'm using has a setting of 'maxEnergy = 100;'.

Yes, that sets the max energy, and then I can setEnergyLevel( 50 ); and it will fill the meter 50%, but I can't seem to find any functions which drain the energy. Are there any?

function reduceEnergy(%object, %amount) {
%currentLevel = %object.getEnergyLevel();
%newLevel = %currentLevel - %amount;
%object.setEnergyLevel(%newLevel);
}

Well, I walked right into that one :) So there are no existing functions. Gotchya. Thanks for the code.
