Description
Documentation on the jump table generatorinfo. This file deals with generator type actors that can spawn small enemies, elements, or even certain Portrait Ghosts.
generatorinfo can be edited with Jumpah.
| Field | Type | Proper Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | String | generator | This field must be set to "generator" for the entry to function properly. |
| type | String | Generator actor name. | Generator Types |
| path_name | String | Must match a filename in the path folder of the map archive. If not, then simply put (null). | Makes the generator use a path file with the string name specified. This path must be inside the path folder of the map archive, and also must be properly defined in railinfo to prevent crashes. |
| CodeName | String | Any string. | This string will allow the generator to be called with event script tags, specifically <GENON> and <GENOFF>.
|
| pos_x | Float | Coordinates within the room's bounding box. | These are the spawn coordinates for the generator. |
| pos_y | Float | ||
| pos_z | Float | ||
| dir_x | Float | -360.000000 < n < 360.000000 | The degree (n) of x-axis rotation for the generator. Negative values tilt backwards, while positive values tilt forwards. |
| dir_y | Float | The degree (n) of y-axis rotation for the generator. Negative values turn left, while positive values turn right. | |
| dir_z | Float | The degree (n) of z-axis rotation for the generator. Negative values tilt left, while positive values tilt right. | |
| scale_x | Float | N/A | Useless. |
| scale_y | Float | ||
| scale_z | Float | ||
| room_no | Integer | map0, map5, map6, map7, and map8: 0-3. | The room number that the generator should spawn in. |
| map1, map3, map4, map9, map10, map11, and map12: 0. | |||
| map2: 0-71. | |||
| appear_flag | Integer | 0-255. | This flag will allow the generator to spawn. |
| disappear_flag | Integer | 0-255. | This flag will prevent the generator from spawning. |
| appear_time | Integer | Any nonnegative integer. | The amount of time (in frames) that it should take to spawn each actor from the generator. |
| max_enemy_once | Integer | Any nonnegative integer. | The maximum number of actors the generator is allowed to spawn at once. |
| max_enemy | Integer | Any nonnegative integer. | The total number of actors the generator is allowed to spawn. |
| arg0 | Integer | Any integer. | Generator Types |
| arg1 | Integer | Any nonnegative integer. | |
| arg2 | Integer | -360 < n < 360 | |
| arg3 | Integer | Any nonnegative integer. | |
| arg4 | Integer | N/A | |
| arg5 | Boolean | 0 or 1. | |
| arg6 | Integer | N/A | |
| arg7 | Integer | N/A | |
| arg8 | Boolean | 0 or 1. | |
| stay | Boolean | 0 or 1. | (WIP) Something to do with keeping the generator on the proper path while switching rooms. This is only used by main Boo (telesa) generator that loads in the Foyer. |
