In case you haven't noticed, we're already at our third category, which is The Coolest Catapult. Please read the last page at least to see what is going on instead of just reading the first post and replying right away. Looking forward to seeing what catapult you'll make. If you make one that is.

How do you make things fall from the sky... seems this gives some an advantage...

PJMehaffey

hey PJ like this...

Just a simple design. change the |ws_i:578.35,20| to:
|ws_i:578.35,-1200|
and you will notice it will fall higher up.
change the -1200 to a greater negative number,
it will be higher still.
Anything above -6000 you can see fall after the screen goes to the trebushay.

Gotcha! Thanks!

@PJMehaffey

Nice catapult, but what does "fer" mean?

To make things "fall out of the sky" you must alter the code a bit. For example, you have this code(which happens to be a horizontal iron beam):

|fl_i:658.35,288.35|

Right now, the beam is on the map, but by adding a negative sign,"-", and making the last number(the one after the comma) bigger, like so:

|fl_i:658.35,-2880.35|

...it will make the object go higher up and off the screen. It will seem that the object is "falling out of the sky". This addition to the code also works for the first number(the one behind the comma), but instead of making the object higher, it makes it go more to the left side. Here's an example:

|fl_i:-1350,288.35|

-1350 also happens to be the furthest to the left you can possibly go, or it will "fall off the edge". This also applies to how high you can go. The lowest number possible(I think) is -20000. Any higher, it will stay up there forever. Also, as you may or may not of guessed by now, if you make the number higher, it will go lower or more to the right(which I think is pretty pointless). If you alter the number to be lower, it will go higher or more to the left.

And to sum everything up...

0~fl_i:X,Y|

If you change X to a negative number, it will go to the left(off the screen). -1350 or less will cause the object to "fall off the edge". If you change X to a positive number, it will go to the right. 1350 or greater, the object is off the screen on the right side and "into the unknown zone". If you change Y to a negative number, it will go up and the object will "fall out of the sky". -20000 or less will cause the object to be "stuck in space". If you change Y to a positive number, it will go down. 432 or higher will cause the object to "fall into hell". And there is your guide to altering CtC-CC codes.

Hope that helped!

So PJ, which is your official entry to this contest? If it's the second one, then please name it.

PJ Nice realistic castle, its a shame that its late. I like the first catapult of yours better, so i would suggest putting that one up.

Ok... after playing around with the off the screen dropping items... This is my official entry. I hope you think it's better. =)

@ivomur

Wrong section much? I don't see a catapult anywhere. Just lots of people. Dead people.

OK people the current category is COOLEST CATAPULTS

Hmmm.... not many castles..... WE NEED MORE CASTLES/CATAPULTS!!!!!!

I just loaded mine up again to watch it and found that it only works right every other time... The "correct" one ends with the King standing by the catapult and the Princess thrown off the right of the screen... Just so you can make sure and see it correctly.
