It is released :)
LPine, your work on this makes me far more inclined to forgive you for past troubles. :D

He's a professional at effects. All he needs to do is finish a shield effect
I've been curious about the future of shields in SB. (And CDS) Have you got a good way to block bullets yet?

The new space shield will block ANY damage done to anything in the shields radius.

It won't always stop the effects though

Nice. That sounds like it should do the job nicely. Good work.

I set up the overlay text system :v:
Does anyone else have a problem with Errors coming up when either damaging props or spawning CDS weapons?
Finally released.
But please get rid of the .svn revision info files in the Zip. There is no need to keep them and as more files you have in /addons, as slower GM starts up.
What are the errors?
I'm assuming Gcombat doesn't conflict with COmabt Damage System?
Just a little suggestion: I'm a person who dislikes any way of using Thinks, especially when it's looping through many entities.
How I see in CDS_Think() (ok it's more a timer :)), you are only updating the values for HP, armor and heat so you can get the specific values by doing the_entity.health.
Well, why not to edit the metatable of the Entity class instead? Pros: No need to update all entities values every second even when you don't need them. And you have always the latest values, not only after a second. Cons: None so far :)
[lua]local enttable = FindMetaTable("Entity");
if(enttable) then
local meta = getmetatable(enttable);
local old__index = meta.__index; -- I'm sure, garry uses a function for __index
meta.__index = function(t,k)
if(k == "health") then
if(t:IsNPC() or t:IsPlayer()) then
return t:Health();
else
return math.Clamp(rawget(t,k),0,t.maxhealth);
end
-- And so on :)
else
return old__index(t,k);
end
end
end[/lua]
Note, I haven't tested the code above, but maybe you are getting the idea :)
The errors are :
Spawning Weapon -
entities/base_cds/init.lua:264: attempt to call global 'Wire_TriggerOutput' (a nil value)
Damaging props -
Error:[Scripted Entity Functon] entities/base_rd_entity/init.lua:34: attempt to index global 'ent' (a nil value)
could this be my Wiremod not working right? It's been a little wonky lately.
So does this basically replace GCombat? Or can they be used together?
[QUOTE=Irish_Cereal]So does this basically replace GCombat? Or can they be used together?[/QUOTE]
Just use CDS for SB if you want to keep GCombat, the weapons in CDS are more suited for space than Gcombat. I would assume they confilict.
On second thought I may have found the problem. I had the older Space Anomalies (which i'm pretty sure was put into SB2 if i'm not mistaken) and my wiremod was installed incorrectly lol. I'm gonna fix those up and see if that fixes it.

I just svn committed a fix :)
