Creating and Adding Socs to a character

[Eliwood]

For my character that I'm making (in Sig), I want to make a Soc where, whenever he spindashes, he leaves a trail of Fire, and he can jump the height of 130 instead of 100, I don't know how to do either of these, nor so I know how to add Socs to a character...so can anyone help me out?

 

[Zion Crayson]

I was thinking about that, too. Except instead of a fire trail, I wanted the character to infinitely shoot out Auto-Homing-Missiles. Admittedly, changing the thrown item gets a similar effect, but it's still not infinite.

 

[Eliwood]

but that might be over powered =O but the Homing ring is slow so...
but I'd still like to know how to get these 2 socs, I really would like them to be added

To get that fire trail thing i think you have to look into the code of the Fire Shield... Or figure it out yourself... The Fire Shield leaves a trail when you spin...

@Eliwood
Get the Thing for the Fire Trail (I forget what it is it might be hard coded) and set it as the Spin Item.

@Zion
Go into SOC edit, set it to A_TURRETFIRE (or if you want it to hit Super Sonic A_SUPERTURRETFIRE) and set var1 to the Auto-Homing Ring (I forget it's number)

 

[DeltaPhoenix]

The thing type for the Auto Homing ring is 120

That could work for Eggman, but what I was talking about the player, like this, but without changing S_SKIN.

It works for any object. It'll still be infinite and he'll throw it while spinning, unless you want him to GAIN an infinite amount of rings, then you have A_SPAWNOBJECTRELATIVE every frame and you make a new object that spawns an Auto a Homing and And infinite Infinity

Um... Any help here? or are you guys gonna talk about object's I'm not going to use...Also, here's a new one I need to...

I need someone to help me make a soc where the character boosts, but when they boost, it uses spindash frames, but also limits turning and requires 30 rings...

 

[A-star]

not possible kthnxbai.

 

[Eliwood]

Well then...what about a boost?

It's possible, it just requires breaking every other character and jumping.

 

[Eliwood]

Than what about JUST THIS?

I know The Flame Trail is possible, Nitemare does it.

Get the Thing for the Fire Trail (I forget what it is it might be hard coded) and set it as the Spin Item.

The Jump Height 130 requires Hardcoding, I was strolling through the SRB2 Source code and saw the cheat checks for that. It said something like:

if
          jumpheight > 100 jumpheight = 100

[/code]

Than how would I do that? Would I open a text file and call it .soc? or what? because I actually don't know how to do that.

hardcoding = EXE mod.
