WaterLevel

Post by FangUp »

Hello all.
Im making this post becose soon i think of doing a map LavaRed vs AquaBlue but never mind of that.
The name of the thing is WaterLevel:

waterLevel
name example_waterlevel
height -1.0
end

That up there is an example of it if anyone knows it already.
So im asking, can the water and lava be made more realistic? like water could be seen through and lava like shining strong every some time?
That would be really cool!

Make the "water" and "lava" manually with a mesh and a material and death physics drivers. The waterLevel object doesn't offer customization like that as far as I know.

Water can be given an alpha value in the Material that is applied to the water mesh and the lava can be dynamically shining bright red like lava heating up and cooling down with the Dynamic Color ability.

Read up on Material and Dynamic Color on the wiki, as they provide enough example for your cases.

Like blast said, do not use Water level, use two separate meshes (Or meshboxes if you prefer) to accomplish this.

ok thhanks sig, but both of you, i already used lava and water so i do not know what u mean by use two different meshes?
I did not put everything in that but all the time i used this: size, location, death psych/not death psych , and if death psych the message when you fall in. It worked perfectly so i dont see the reason why i should not use waterLevel?
Ok anyways thank you very much for "Material" and "Dynamic Color" , ill go check in on wiki right away!

Um, no, you used a waterLevel object in your original post. Doesn't matter if you do it manually or not. It's still a waterLevel object.
