Here are some of the recent, hot Gamestudio features:
Terrain LOD improvements
Terrain LOD now also works correctly with nonstandard view angles (isometric or fisheye views).
path_set improvements
path_set will now return a negative number when multiple paths with the same name are found in the level.
var path_nodes;
action my_guard()
{
// the line below will return the number of nodes for path_001
// or a negative value if there are two or more paths named path_001
path_nodes = path_set(me, "path_001");
}
PANEL* display_pan =
{
digits(10, 10, "Number of nodes: %.f", *, 1, path_nodes);
flags = SHOW;
}
New lite-C function
The ifelse function is a more convenient substitute for the C ?: operator than if..else.
var number, x;
function numbers_startup()
{
random_seed(0);
x = integer(random(100));
number = ifelse(x % 2, 0, 1);
}
PANEL* display_pan =
{
digits(10, 10, "Even (0) or odd (1): %.f", *, 1, number);
flags = SHOW;
}
