[Client-Side] Bending Healing Beams
« on: July 12, 2014, 10:19:07 am »

Bending Healing Beams
This aesthetic client side plugin causes the healer's medigun beams to bend smoothly, rippling through the air, instead of shooting straight towards the targeted player.
The old graphics always irritated me, so I created this plugin.  :x8:




The beam does not bend around corners, so a LOS must be maintained between the medigun and the target, just like the vanilla healing beams. (it's only aesthetic).

Enjoy.


To install this plugin, download "bendingHealbeam.gml" and put it in your Plugins folder

Just a heads up, the beam is wildly out of control on the extended curve when healing players near and at max distance

Ah. Gotcha. I'll just edit the post and fix that :z5:

Edit: That was easy.

Any chance this will get a server-sent version? Think there'd be more enjoyment if everyone saw the wildly waving heal beams than just the client (yourself) as well as the reactions of discovery

This plugin doesn't need to be server-sent to function.
Besides, I've already created a pull request, now if Medo thinks this should be implemented into the game, he will add it.
There's been no progress though.

Don't see where the function part came in, works find client sided..
Not sure how I'd feel about a bending beam clipping through wallmask being standard, obviously the curve may confused players that the beam was updated to bend around corners. That's up to the Dev's though

When I say "to function", I mean "to work properly"

Yes, it's been three years, and in three years from 2.7.2 (I believe) there were some pretty big updates to GG2. Specifically in the 2.8.0 update reload animations were added, but due to how plugins work in Gang Garrison, using this plugin would not let them play. Fixed it. As always, sorry for necrotm

Plugin updated to make the code cleaner and to make the plugin compatible with GG2 2.8.
