[Sandbox] Orbital Friendship Beam
Bullitt 18 Oct, 2014 @ 8:46pm
No explosion, rainbow sticks.
[[Sandbox] Orbital Friendship Beam] lua/weapons/orbital_friendship_beam.lua:221: Tried to use a NULL entity!
1. SetPos - [C]:-1
2. start - lua/weapons/orbital_friendship_beam.lua:221
3. unknown - lua/weapons/orbital_friendship_beam.lua:140

Timer Failed! [Simple][@lua/weapons/orbital_friendship_beam.lua (line 140)]

This is apparently what happens when there is no explosion to come along with the beam itself, and the beam stays there forever unless you cleanup everything in the settings.

Hope this helps.

hm, interesting, it was a bug a few versions ago, but I fixed it.
I'll look into it and see if I somehow can fix it.
Does all sounds play as they should?
As soon as I found a fix I'll tell you :)

Yeah, all the sounds work.

Seems like I found the bug and fixed it in both versions.
Currently uploading the new version, please tell me if it works as soon as it's updated.

You fixed that, but I've recently tested a few things. If you die or run into it while the song is playing, the song will stop and the beam will stick, with what looks to be an error shadow beneath it, but no true error. The damage radius from the explosion to the player isn't that big (Not sure if thats on purpose) And it doesn't seem to deal damage to NPC's. There happened to be this in the console: Attempted to create unknown entity type func_viscluster!
Can't init func_viscluster
Precache of particle/particle_electrical_arc ambigious (no extension specified)
EmitSound: volume out of bounds = 8.111396
Sorry for not replying right away, completely forgot this.

And the only time I saw the beam and/or explosion interact with a prop was when the beam landed directly on top of it, and then the prop just disappeared from existance.

It does damage to the NPC's but as you stated,
the damage radius is currently really small, I am looking into it (It's a bug).
Secondly, the func_viscluster is nothing releated to OFB, since it does not 'attempt' to create it.
That it does not interact with a prop directly, is because there is no 'blast' radius, I will look into it.

Hmm, just downloaded this mod and got the same error. Rainbow and explosion frozen and then luna errors.

Sadly princess luna does not make an appearance in this mod, however the lua errors are a thing (sadly). I just wanted to let you know it is not abandoned and there is being looked upon fixing it in the near future.
