This addon/mod was made by Overv (as far as I know since that's what it says on the beta page) at some point that I'm assuming was a long time ago. I found it in the Garrysmod beta only mostly fixed and I wanted to integrate it into a gamemode I'm working on (derived from sandbox, so I have no problem using it in addon form).
The Dimensions addon is designed to separate gameplay into distinct "dimensions" or "rooms" where you can only see and interact with props, npcs, other players, etc in the same dimension as you.
The main problem I'm having is that ropes and tracer fire are still visible when you're in another dimension. The code is otherwise working and I haven't had to add anything to it except minor bug fixing. I'm just going to post the actual area of code I'm having trouble with because everything else is working fine. I'm not getting any error messages, it just isn't working as intended.
Original Code (for reference):
cl_dimensionscore.lua:
[lua]function Dimensions:SetEntityVisiblity( ent, dimension )
if ( ent:EntIndex() < 0 or !ent:IsValid() ) then return end
local visible = false
if ( ent:GetOwner():IsValid() ) then
visible = ent:GetOwner():GetDimension() == dimension
elseif ( ent:GetClass() == "class C_RopeKeyframe" ) then
visible = ent:GetNWEntity( "CEnt", ent ):GetDimension() == dimension
else
visible = ent:GetDimension() == dimension
end
if ( ent:GetClass() == "class C_RopeKeyframe" ) then
if ( visible ) then
ent:SetColor(Color(255, 255, 255, 255))
else
ent:SetColor(Color(255, 255, 255, 0))
end
else
ent:SetNoDraw( !visible )
if ( visible and !ent.DimensionVisibility ) then
ent:CreateShadow()
end
end
ent.DimensionVisibility = visible
end
function Dimensions.RenderEntities()
local localDimension = LocalPlayer():GetViewDimension()
for _, ent in ipairs( ents.GetAll() ) do
Dimensions:SetEntityVisiblity( ent, localDimension )
if ( ent.Dimension and ent.Dimension != ent:GetDimension() and ( ent.Dimension != localDimension and ent:GetDimension() == localDimension ) or ( ent.Dimension == localDimension and ent:GetDimension() != localDimension ) and !ent:GetOwner():IsValid() ) then
local ed = EffectData()
ed:SetEntity( ent )
util.Effect( "entity_remove", ed, true, true )
end
ent.Dimension = ent:GetDimension()
end
end
hook.Add( "RenderScene", "DimensionsEntityDrawing", Dimensions.RenderEntities )[/lua]
My Version. trying to fix the error (doesn't seem to make any difference) I commented out a section that was another attempt (it still didn't work):
cl_dimensionscore.lua:
[lua]function Dimensions:SetEntityVisiblity( ent, dimension )
if ( ent:EntIndex() < 0 or !ent:IsValid() ) then return end
local visible = false
local localDimension = LocalPlayer():GetViewDimension()
--if ( ent:GetOwner():IsValid() ) then
-- visible = ent:GetOwner():GetDimension() == dimension
--elseif ( ent:GetClass() == "C_RopeKeyframe" ) then
-- if ent:GetNWEntity( "CEnt", ent ):GetDimension() == localDimension then
-- visible = true
-- else
-- visible = false
-- end
-- print(visible)
-- print(ent:GetNWEntity( "CEnt", ent ):GetDimension())
--else
-- visible = ent:GetDimension() == dimension
--end
if ( ent:GetOwner():IsValid() ) then
if ent:GetOwner() == LocalPlayer() then
if ent:GetDimension() == localDimension then
visible = true
end
end
elseif ( ent:GetClass() == "class C_RopeKeyframe" ) then
if ent:GetNWEntity( "CEnt", ent ):GetDimension() == localDimension then
visible = true
print(visible)
end
else
if ent:GetDimension() == localDimension then
visible = true
else
visible = false
end
end
if ( ent:GetClass() == "C_RopeKeyframe" ) then
if ( visible ) then
ent:SetColor(255, 255, 255, 255)
else
ent:SetColor(255,255,255,0)
ent:SetRenderMode(RENDERMODE_TRANSALPHA)
end
else
ent:SetNoDraw( !visible )
if ( visible and !ent.DimensionVisibility ) then
ent:CreateShadow()
end
end
ent.DimensionVisibility = visible
end
function Dimensions.RenderEntities()
local localDimension = LocalPlayer():GetViewDimension()
for _, ent in ipairs( ents.GetAll() ) do
Dimensions:SetEntityVisiblity( ent, localDimension )
if ( ent.Dimension and ent.Dimension != ent:GetDimension() and ( ent.Dimension != localDimension and ent:GetDimension() == localDimension ) or ( ent.Dimension == localDimension and ent:GetDimension() != localDimension ) and !ent:GetOwner():IsValid() ) then
local ed = EffectData()
ed:SetEntity( ent )
util.Effect( "entity_remove", ed, true, true )
end
ent.Dimension = ent:GetDimension()
end
end
hook.Add( "RenderScene", "DimensionsEntityDrawing", Dimensions.RenderEntities )[/lua]
If there isn't anything obvious there then here's the full code. This includes the serverside stuff for the Networked Entity, which I checked and seems to be working.
original code (I just added "_R = debug.getregistry()"):
cl_dimensionscore.lua

Dimensions = {}
--for debugging purposes -Zyler
_R = debug.getregistry()
--[[------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

function _R.Entity:GetDimension()
if ( !self:IsValid() ) then return 1 end
local val = self:GetDTInt( 3 )
if ( val == 0 and self != LocalPlayer() ) then val = LocalPlayer():GetDimension() end
return val
end
function _R.Entity:GetViewDimension()
local val = self:GetDTInt( 2 )
if ( val == 0 ) then val = LocalPlayer():GetDimension() end
return val
end
--[[------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

function Dimensions.ShouldCollide( ent1, ent2 )
if ( ent1:GetDimension() != ent2:GetDimension() && !ent1:IsWorld() && !ent2:IsWorld() ) then
return false
end
end
hook.Add( "ShouldCollide", "DimensionsCollisionHandling", Dimensions.ShouldCollide )
