Re: Night Animations
Is there a way to add a probability that certain lights will be on/off?

Re: Night Animations
Probably fun, maybe check animation control, or random fun, as well as rnd. Those could be what you need.KINGTUT10101 wrote: ↑24 Jun 2020, 21:04Is there a way to add a probability that certain lights will be on/off?
I just love the DOPE-amine you get after completing a plugin!

Re: Night Animations
For the stadium I just put a date factor for the animation ("date": {"start day": 0, "days": 7, "days total": 30}) it is simply a periodic animation.

Re: Night Animations
That's a bit disappointing. Thanks for the response though. I would implement that idea into my plug-in, but I don't want to redefine all of the light animations to do it tbh. Maybe a developer could add it in the future.

Re: Night Animations
Is there a way we could easily change the color of these lights? I think having white or light blue versions available would be really nice.

Re: Night Animations
I could recolor all the lights white and use "color" in animation def and add blue variants. There is no easy way of changing colors without adding new animations.

Re: Night Animations
Since the latest versionIn a future version (that will be 1.8.90) a new attribute can be used. It is called
It can be used in animation definition. With the code above, the light has a 90% probability of spawning. It can be used to create more diversity of lights on the same buildings.
Code: Select all
"night light probability":0.9

Re: Night Animations
That upcoming version will also support color within animation spot definitions instead of only within the animation draft definitions.
Could look like that: You can either specify a color directly within a color object (like "color":{r:...}) or provide an id of a color that was defined before:

Re: Night Animations
All the "animation" codes go into your building definition. The "light" ones go into your animation definition, along with custom frames and such.

Re: Night Animations
answering your question I think the order does not matter I would put the code down to the bottom of the jsonAlparingitlgnd5 wrote: ↑11 Aug 2020, 07:26Where to put this code "animation":[{"id":"1x2l", "x":9, "y":-5}] and "animation":[{"id":"1x2", "x":9, "y":-5}, {"id":"1x2", "x":23, "y":-2}] this one? also this one [{"id":"1x2", "x":16, "y":-7, "frame":0}, {"id":"1x2", "x":12, "y":-1, "frame":1}] where do I put these ones even this "light":true/false, and this "light switching":true/false sorry for my question.

Re: Night Animations
Kulche do you know of any mobile app that allows me to see the coordinates of the windows or how can I know it? I use pixel studio to make my plugins, please answer me.

Re: Night Animations
I don't use Android so I don't know any apps that show coordinates. Maybe you could try Pixly but I'm not sure about it. I recommend getting paint.net on a desktop as it's far more convenient.

Re: Night Animations
and I have to write the exact coordinates of the window or those of the pivot point?
