( ! ) Learnt by examining XML code
Preparation
After the showHalo="true"
text, add blinkProgram="
after a spacing and before the />
Alternatively, if you set the light to blink in the editor the blinkProgram
text will automatically appear and you only have to change the numbers.
Pattern Creation
Directly after blinkProgram="
, add the Light On Duration and Light Off Duration in an alternating pattern, something like this:
sourced from Gestour's SOS Beacon, no idea where the ending angled bracket went
The pattern automatically restarts when it reaches the end. One time unit is one second (tested with SP Race Timer), and the designerBlinkProgram DOES NOT affect the pattern speed.
0.5,0.5
is quick blink and 0.5,2
is slow blink.
Profit
End with "
after your string of numbers. And remember to save! Test it out in the Sandbox level.
@hpgbproductions thanks alternating 0,0.5,0.5,0 an 0.5,0,0,0.5 made alternately blinking lights as in one on the other off repeating
@Sterben214
You can use
0.5,0.5
and0,0.5,0.5,0
Or use funky trees:
repeat(Time,1)<0.5 and repeat(Time,1)>0.5
Anyone know how to get 2 lights to blink in sync as in one one the other off and so on?
I got the demo and I found the blink program and used 0.05,0.01 to make an blinking go fast like flickering
That’s how I made my battle damage freedom gundam eyes flickering after it lost half of its head
Noice
If possible, can someone actually make a beacon with this program for others to use.
Nice
@2416creeper yes, alternate between on time and off time
Hahaha yea... mayby in 10 years later. Is it the blink battern like 1 seccond 2 seconds ect?
@2416creeper its very simple already, some practice and you will get it
Cunfusing.. uhh english please and its "simple"planes XD idk how you guys do it but keep up the good work!!,
@arcues theres no binary at all
do you put binary
Honestly... bravo for discovering this. I don't know if there is a running page with all the xml discoveries. Are you aware of a wiki page that covers everything?
@Gestour thanks, updated the post
Thanks! Thats great help
