I think it's because I haven't had enough time to experiment with lua, since I was busy with school and term tests. I'd like to dedicate more time to lua over the holiday right now. BUT, Fortnite is giving season 8 battle pass as a reward to people who complete 13 challenges, and I really want to have a skin for once...

(That was a long post that has little relevance what so ever)

I have an inspiration to make a zone that a bit similar with "Primitive Zone" plugin, but I try to make it with modern building. The purpose is to make the game looks more real with various RCI building in a zone rather than to build the same type building in a zone.

So, rather than I create the new buildings, I choose to create a code spawn some buildings from the game itself. Is it legal if I use in-game building ? What code should I use ?

Can be done, but it's complicated and the code is long.

:)

First step: collect the ids and sizes of the in-game buildings you wish built in your zone. Remember it's not a good idea to mix polluting industries with residential buildings. :)

Lobby wrote: 31 May 2017, 00:37 Since version 296 you may let buildings (e.g. decorations) automatically spawn in map creation. To do so, we added an object called "spawn" which contains probability p, main spawn height height and max deviation from it radius.

A small sample plugin that spawns grass in the ocean:

Code: Select all

[
  {
    "id":"$myspawntest00",
    "type":"decoration",
    "width":1,
    "height":1,
    "frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":32,"h":16}],
    "needs water":false,
    "needs land":false,
    "draw ground":true,
    "spawn":
    {
      "p":0.01,
      "height":-600,
      "radius":600
    }
  }
]
To give you some intuition about what height means I measured some height values in this map:

It's an attribute for cars; If you set it to false (e.g. for fire engines) they won't be charged by tollbooths.

@Lobby I've ran into a problem while making a body disposal plugin. I get an IllegalStateExeption for the "type":"body disposal" when booting up the game. Does this mean that its impossible to create plugins or is there a way to solve it?

code:

Code: Select all

[
  {
    "id":"$Modern_Crematorium_by_A_Dutch_Guy",
    "type":"body disposal",
	"title":"Large modern crematorium",
	"text":"i will add this later",
    "author":"A Dutch Guy",
    "width":5,
    "height":5,
    "frames":[{"bmp":"Modern_Crematorium.png"}],
	"influence body disposal":200,
	"price":50000,
	"monthly price":50


		   
  }
]

I think it may need a privileged code.
