Movienight - support your friends and express yourself!

This mod lets players see the audience of people viewing them in netgames, and gives players a variety of ways to express themselves while doing so:

Emotes
This script has a variety of emotes available. View the list by typing .emotes in the game chat, and use an emote by typing it in chat as well! (E.G. typing .bruh will display the ".bruh" emote)

The emote will display above your head in the audience and in the game world. Use them to express things to people nearby, or to support the player you're watching, while creating less noise in the game chat.

Other addons can add their own emotes with the following method:

-- If your addon does things aside from emotes, and just adds them as a bonus
if MN then
    MN.AddEmote("emote1", {SPR_BLAH, A, group="My Emotes"})
    -- OR
    MN.AddEmotes("My Emotes", {
        emote1 = {SPR_BLAH, A},
        emote2 = {SPR_BLAH, B, color=SKINCOLOR_RED}
    })
end

-- If your addon is exclusively an emote pack
assert(MN, "This emote pack requires Movienight to be loaded first!")
MN.AddEmote("emote1", {SPR_BLAH, A})

-- Recommended emote pack filename: VL_movienightemotes_{NAME}-v#.pk3/wad

Poses
You can also pose into any sprite your character has available, as long as you're standing still. Type .poses in chat to view the different poses available, and type .pose <the pose you want> to pose with it! Pose with your death sprite when the person you're watching does something silly, idk.

Other things
You can change which way you're facing in the viewpoint audience by typing .stare, .watch, or .spin in chat.

You can make the audience see-through, or turn them off completely, by using the audience_opacity console variable, if they're getting annoying.

Type .help into chat at any time to see all available commands.

This addon executes a config_movienight.cfg script in your SRB2 folder when it's first loaded. You can use this to set up binds or store a default audience opacity.

Hello. Unfortunately V1 had a grievous omission, but thanks to Tyonic this has been resolved in record time and V2 is now up. Changelog:

• Added .dab
• Saved Christmas

Oh thank goodness, Christmas is now saved.

Wrappin' up some changes in v3, aimed mostly at making browsing emotes a more pleasant experience:

• Added search functionality to the emote and pose listings by using ".emotes search terms here" or ".poses same". This makes it easier to find all of the dab emotes loaded on the server.
• The emote and pose listings are now sorted alphabetically (first by group - see below - then by emote name) and sectioned into specific pages, instead of the previous quasi-randomized mishmash of sorting by however Lua decided.
• Emotes can be grouped, which will show up in the emote listing and is used to keep grouped emotes together in sorting. Ungrouped emotes will appear at the end of the listing. Search also checks group names.
• New (untested :X) methods for adding emotes. These will append a number to the emote name if needed to avoid name conflicts. The old AU_Emotes table is left in for backwards-compatibility. The new methods are:
  • For a single emote: MN.AddEmote("emotename", {SPR_BLAH, A, color=SKINCOLOR_COLOR, group="group"}) (color and group are optional)
  • For a whole group of emotes: MN.AddEmotes("group", {emotename = {SPR_BLAH, A, color=SKINCOLOR_COLOR}}) (color is, again, optional)
• Bug fixes:
  • Emotes now flip with the player in-world.
  • Fixed the welcome notice from showing up multiple times in chat for new joiners.
• Started on refactoring the code internally for my own sanity. If new bugs crop up, this is probably the cause.

I tried loading it and testing it, and the commands don't work. The console says they are unknown commands. It also says "couldn't execute file config_movienight.cfg", so do I have to make the required .cfg on my own?

[fickleheart]

Most of the commands are chat commands, so you send them as chat messages instead of using the console. I considered this a better interface than opening the console every time you want to use an emote.


config_movienight.cfg is optional. You can create one if that message annoys you, but it's not required in any way.

This is, like, the coolest addon EVER! It makes me want to play SRB2 more and more and more. It's exactly this sort of thing that improves the multiplayer experience and makes it truly a *social* experience, which is probably what a lot of us stick around the community for nowadays anyhow.

Great job! I can't wait to use this next time I am playing with friendos. :D

[Frostiikin]

If someone uses too high of a value for the speed it will crash the server it's on... This really needs to be fixed /:
Maybe limit the max speed for a pose to around 10k? that would be way more then enough.

This mod is nice but bad we can only remove audience because some emotes can be annoying and flood the chat and also it's glitched.
