Super Abilities - My first LUA project !

[SpongeSonicGuy(?)]

I pressed all three custom buttons and it doesn't work.

The first one is with The second one is with And the third one is obviously
Custom 1. Custom 2. with Custom 3.

Did a little rewrite to this script
one line for the moment.

          P_NukeEnemies(skin inflictor, skin source, fixed_t radius)

keep in mind im still not good in lua
I'm a begginner

The P_NukeEnemies takes, in order:
- An inflictor as a mobj, as in "what is the object that caused the nuke?"
- A source as a mobj, as in "what is the object that fired the inflictor?"
- A radius as a fixed-point number, as in "how far can the attack reach?"

Inflictor and source may be the same mobj, if for example a player causes the nuke.

All you did was just change mobj_t to skin.
Lua has no idea what does that mean.

soooooo i have to do this:

          P_NukeEnemies(player, 10*FRACUNIT )

so the player is the mobj right ?
and the radius i just have to put a number, then *FRACUNIT right ?
also, im confused to where to put the missing end at.

I pressed all three custom buttons and it doesn't work.

For the first one, kiiiind of. player here is a variable of type player_t, but you need a variable of type mobj_t. And not only just that, but you need two of them at the start.

For the second, yes, it's a number multiplied by FRACUNIT.

Seems like you solved these already, though.

As for the last one, you need an end for every function/if/for/while/repeat/(others?) in your script.

As you can see, you have a function, a for and one if.
But you only have two ends: one for the first function and another for the for.
Because of this, Lua has no idea when does the last if end, and it won't do what you want.


By the way:
- G_PlatformGametype is still a function. You should be calling it: G_PlatfomGametype()
- Looks like you changed the hook type to ThinkFrame. That works!
- A player that is somehow not in the game (spectating or otherwise) has no mo field. You should probably check that the player does indeed have a mo before trying to use it.
