Programming Question (Ability Listeners)

[SenpaiBlaze]

So I went through some of Coolade's displayed videos and I did his tutorial, and successfully made Ingnite. Now I want to move on to something bigger. I have two questions, and here they are.

Question 1.) How can I make it so when you shift at water, the particles appear, and it shoots a certain order of blocks forward. Here, let me brake it down.

1. Shifting at water selects the source block
1.2 It displays particles (I Could Find This On My Own If I Need Two)
2.On Right Click, it shoots a certain order of water blocks forward
2.1 The Damage and Potion Effects It Gives The Player When It Hits Them

Question 2.) How to make it when someone shifts at a block, it turns into something else. Also how can I make it so it falls under the list of Earth-bendable blocks. Again, let me brake it down.

1. Shifting at a block triggers something so it turns into another block
2. How to make the blocks that it can be used on the earth bendable block list

If you know how to do this feel free to comment below, link me to tutorials (Won't Help As Much), or PM me. Thank you all! ~ Blaze

as for question 1, look at block iterators, and look at the korra methods for setting TempBlock (thanks @runefist for the help with that), and i think korra has a method for creating particles (i use my own tho) so you might have to ask @AlexTheCoder for tips on that. For potion effects, when iterating thru the block iterator locations, do a check to get nearby entities and apply potion effects to them.

As for question 2, no idea.

hope ive been some help-ish xD

The bendable block list is in the Project Korra config. c:

I found that out, but my question was how would I make it where the move used the list as its bendable blocks instead of, lets say Stone

get the block and check it with

Methods.isEarthbendable(player, block);

get the block and check it with

Methods.isEarthbendable(player, block);

Thanks again

For anything more detailed relating to PK Methods, feel free to ask any of the developers, up until we get a working JavaDocs or other Documentation of the class so any dev should be able to help

Somebody should put together a medium level tutorial that involves particles and progressing abilities over multiple ticks.

i am more than tempted to make a youtube series on how to make an ability, but im unsure if i want to cos i dont feel confifent enough incase i fuck up ;-;

 

[Coolade]

A youtube series would be much more tricky than just writing it out, but either one would be a big help to other people trying to code abilities.

why cant u do one?

 

[jedk1]

why cant u do one?

hes made one. the move im going to teach you to make, is going to be a tutorial of a higher level. It will involve block iterators and particles, then as a higher up tutorial it will be about checking blocks etc (maybe). Thats all im saying for now tho until i actually make this!
