More questions. We could have a user manual at the rate I'm going on this board

 

I'm having trouble with a simple table with one solenoid for the outhole with no switches. I have tried a few ways but none seem to work correctly. Instead of taking up to 2 minutes each time to test the code I thought it's probably easier just to ask and save time.

	BxSwNode drain = subManager.AddEntrance("Drain");		// Entrance kicker without switch		
	drain = subManager.AddExit("PlungerKicker",1);	// Output kicker driven by solenoid 1
				
        // build the subway system
        subManager.Build();

I did have the two linked but there is no switch to link the two.

 

In one version it was starting the game and kicking the ball out correct but after the first ball hits the drain it would be game over.

This table in question, Roller Disco(gottlieb). I added a quick driver to the script for GTS1 and all other switches/ solenoids are ok.

Another thing was wondering about a kicker is, can the depth where the ball sits be adjusted?

 

Could be just me but they look like they're sitting pretty low.

Hi chepas.

 

If this is the only code you have regarding subway, there will be a problem.

I cannot find the Roller Disco's manual due to patent so I don't understand how it works.

 

Either, it is a "regular" through, so you need to LINK two kickers:

// Main through
BxSwNode drain = subManager.AddEntrance("Drain");	// Main drain node used as subway entrance (not switch triggered)
BxSwNode pkick = subManager.AddExit("PlungerKicker",4);	// Exit plunger kicker Node
//pkick.m_switchSlot = 52;				// optionnal kicker switch

BxSwEdge mainThrough = subManager.LinkNodes(drain,pkick,1.5f);	// main Through edge link (1.5 seconds for a ball to cross it) 

OR, it is a simple "in/out" and you have only ONE kicker, used as entrance and out:

BxSwNode drain = subManager.AddEntrance("Drain");        // Entrance kicker without switch        
    drain = subManager.AddExit("Drain",1);    // Output kicker driven by solenoid 1

In the latter case, you can prevent the ball to be "destroyed" by setting the flag to false:

BxSwNode drain = subManager.AddEntrance("Drain",-1,false);        // Entrance kicker without switch (-1), not deleting ball => aka saucer

Another thing was wondering about a kicker is, can the depth where the ball sits be adjusted?

 

Could be just me but they look like they're sitting pretty low.

Nop, no depth yet => TODO

[chepas]

I had actually tried the first two ways of doing it with no luck, so must be a switch missing or something. Also tested with just the drain kicking into plunger lane , but after the ball in play is drained , the ball doesn't get taken, just sits there.

 

Maybe one time you could get a look at it, the table is very small at this point so far, no rush, although I have needed roller disco 3D for a while .

[chepas]

Run into this problem a couple of times now with saucers, like this..

	BxSwNode LeftKicker = subManager.AddEntrance("sw34", 34, false);	//
        LeftKicker = subManager.AddExit("sw34", 5);		// Solenoid 5

If a ball hits the kicker containing a ball, one will disappear.

[BilboX]

If a ball hits the kicker containing a ball, one will disappear.

Strange. It should not because there is at max 1 ball by default in nodes...

Maybe one time you could get a look at it, the table is very small at this point so far, no rush, although I have needed roller disco 3D for a while .

Yes but without the doc manual, gonna be hard to debug...

[nath2099]

Hi there, I'm trying to get a saucer working but with a delayed kick out. How might one do that?

		BxSwNode KLSaucer  =  subManager.AddEntrance("KLSaucer",70, false); // switch #70, kill ball = false	
		KLSaucer =  subManager.AddExit("KLSaucer",70);		// solenoid #70

[chepas]

		BxSwNode KLSaucer  =  subManager.AddEntrance("KLSaucer",70, false); // switch #70, kill ball = false	
		KLSaucer =  subManager.AddExit("KLSaucer",70,5.0f);		// solenoid #70

That should work. You can see the comma and float time in the exit.

Try moving the kickers you've added before you build the subway.

 

subManager.Build();

[nath2099]

Nah still nothing:

	public override void InitSubwaySystem(){
		base.InitSubwaySystem();
		GameObject subway = GameObject.Find ("TABLE/SUBWAY");
		if(subway==null){
			Debug.LogError("Unable to find SUBWAY object");
			return;
		}
		BxSwManager subManager = (BxSwManager)subway.GetComponent("BxSwManager");
		if(subManager==null) subManager = (BxSwManager)subway.GetComponent("BxSwVisualManager");
		if(subManager==null){
			Debug.LogError("Unable to find the Subway manager component in SUBWAY object");
			return;
		}
		float swL = Global.Physics.g_BallDiameter;					// length of switches in mm
		BxSwNode drain = subManager.AddEntrance("Drain",5);		// Main drain node used as subway entrance		
		BxSwNode pkick = subManager.AddExit("PlungerKicker",4);	// Exit GoT_ kicker Node
		pkick.m_swicthSlot = 52;								// Node switch number
		BxSwEdge mainThrough = subManager.LinkNodes(drain,pkick,1.5f);			// main Through edge link (1.5 seconds for a ball to cross it)
		mainThrough.AddSwitch(50, mainThrough.m_length-swL*1.5f, swL*0.9f);		// First switch on the edge
		mainThrough.AddSwitch(51, mainThrough.m_length-swL*0.5f , swL*0.9f);	// Second switch on the edge (making 3 in total with the pkick node switch)
		
				BxSwNode KLSaucer  =  subManager.AddEntrance("KLSaucerKicker",70, false); // switch #70, kill ball = false	
		KLSaucer =  subManager.AddExit("KLSaucerKicker",70,5.0f);		// solenoid #70

Nate from P-ROC? I think I gave you that script.

 

If it's for original table you probably need switch/solenoid callback

[nath2099]

 

 

Nate from P-ROC?

Yes mate, getting there slowly!

 

So given the above code, I'd just add add to the switch statement:

public override void SetSwitch (int slot, bool state){
		base.SetSwitch (slot, state);
		switch(slot){
			case 61:
			case 62:
			case 63:
				SetSolenoid(slot,state); 
				break;
			case 64:
			case 65:	
				if(state) {
					SetSolenoid(slot,state); 
				}
				break;
			case 69:
				SetLamp (1,state);
				if (state) {
					SetSolenoid(69, state); 
				}
				break;
			case 70:
                                Delay(5000); // WHAT IS THE RIGHT STATEMENT HERE, AND WILL IT KILL EVERYTHING ELSE UNTIL THE 5 SECONDS EXPIRES?
				SetSolenoid(70, state); 
				break;
			case 71:
				Delay(5000); // WHAT IS THE RIGHT STATEMENT HERE, AND WILL IT KILL EVERYTHING ELSE UNTIL THE 5 SECONDS EXPIRES?
                                SetSolenoid(71, state); 
				break;
		}
	}	

[chepas]

Well, the float release time thing is weird. It rises up slowly then pops out. Almost like it's squeezing one out , lol.

 

Try this:

 

Remove the switch callback from the set switch function.

    public override void Init()
    {

        AddSwitchCallBack(70, switchCallbackTest);

    void switchCallbackTest(int slot, bool b)
    {
        SetSolenoid(70, true);
    }
    
        void PrepareElements()
    {

}

}

Add the line inside of the table managers init() instead, and the function before void PrepareElements

Still no go unfortunately. Am I still supposed to have the 5f in the AddExit declaration? It does seem to do something, but definitely not a 5 second hold. I also don't have a PrepareElements function.

The prepare elements here sorts the lamps out. I tested it and it worked kicking ball out. Your kicker code is ok  , so you should be ok with this

[nath2099]

Sorry mate I think I'm missing something... Are you saying that if I add your PrepareElements it will fix the ball kickout issue, despite the fact it only seems to deal with lamps? Also, does the 5f in my code signify 5 seconds?

////////////////// Correcting Playfield lamps(could have been done with material editor but too much lamps to do by hand )

 

That's all that is for.

 

The callback test is added into the  init() = AddSwitchCallBack(70, switchCallbackTest);

 

Then I suppose it shouldn't matter where the function is for that, but that's where I put it when tested it working. Yes, 5.0 seconds float value.

	//! Initialize table driver
public override void InitDriver(){
m_driver = new BxDriver_wpc();
}	

See this as well, if this is an original table , you would leave this blank for now. No way I know of to use pyprocgame with it.

Sorry not trying to hijack the thread....

chepas, I've been trying to get in touch with you, where should I send the PM?

[nath2099]

Cool, cheers for your help with that. It seems that the 5f isn't actual seconds. If I change it to 100f it holds the ball for about 5 seconds. I am running on a super quick computer though.Do I need a command to slow the program down a bit or is that expected behavior?

 

Thanks again.
