Createntity/mine issue
Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2013 5:11 am
anyone care to explain why this does not work as expected 
Should be fairly obvious that I created a new mine that is suppose to deploy regular land-mines around it when it explodes...only issues are that it only works if the creepers hit it before 'setting' and then when it does work the newly spawned mines seem to be on the enemy's force (ie, they become invisible and if you walk over where they were they explode 
)
Code: Select all
game.onevent(defines.events.onentitydied, function(event)
if event.entity.name == "trigger-mine" then
game.createentity{name="land-mine",position={event.entity.position.x,event.entity.position.y-1},force=player}
game.createentity{name="land-mine",position={event.entity.position.x,event.entity.position.y+1},force=player}
game.createentity{name="land-mine",position={event.entity.position.x-1,event.entity.position.y},force=player}
game.createentity{name="land-mine",position={event.entity.position.x+1,event.entity.position.y},force=player}
end
end
)
thanks, however it still only works before the mine 'sets'. If you place the trigger mine and give it a few seconds it sinks into the ground, at which point it acts like a regular mine (ie, does not spawn land-mines when it explodes)...Does the entity name change to trigger-mine-set or something lol
