Template Projectile Template!

[Vestras]

        call ReleaseTimer(.t)
        call ReleaseTimer(.ti)
        call ClearTimerStructA(.t)
        call ClearTimerStructA(.ti)

Hmmm... does that actually work correctly? Not 100% sure on how CSSafety works though :\ Wouldn't it be safer to clear the struct before releasing the timer?


And why isn't there a configuration menu? Noone is going to use this if they can't easily configure as much as possible

Look at the example. You call a line, like any other template.

And yes, it works completely fine.

Now read the edit, there's alot of fixes that are needed

Also, if you have the latest version of CS, you can use NewGroup/ReleaseGroup instead of creating/destroying groups.

Ye, DummyDie isn't running. I added a DebugMsg and nothing appears.

I'm not trying to be harsh but this is pretty badly made.

• Sin and Cos in the move function? Should be precalculated velocity.
• Two timers for each projectile? Should be a single timer to handle every projectile (keep them in a list).
• Structs used internally. Inline these.
• GroupEnum AND FirstOfGroup loop used. Wasteful.
• Triggers and attachment used to handle projectile death?
• Locations used for seemingly no reason? Use coordinates. EDIT: Also these locations appear to be leaking on every move.
• Using DestroyTimer on a null value. Twice.

These are just a few of the problems I've seen. In a projectile system as simple as this, you should not find yourself using:

• CreateTimer, NewTimer, etc for each projectile.
• Any sort of attachment system.
• Expensive calculations in the move function.
