  • Added 2 new Character properties: OverrideArmRotation and ArmRotation. These let you change the rotation of the player's arm from a script.
  • Added a new UI object: UITextBox
  • Added better crash handling. And it's actually useful, not the "we need to quit, we're sorry" garbage that lots of programmers like these days.

What's the difference between OverrideArmRotation and ArmRotation?

ArmRotation is just a boolean property that tells the game to use the other one.

I'm confused

would

Character.ArmRotation = 90 work

or would I write

Character.OverrideArmRotation = 90

or

Character:OverrideArmRotation(90)

Boolean means it can only be true or false.

YES! Now I can make tools with "animations"!

RE: 7/22/11 - Jacob__mybb_import1 - 07-23-2011

#2:
  • Added new AngularVelocity property for parts, and the associated FixedAngularVelocity object
  • New character function: setSeat(seat)
  • New player function: setTool(toolIndex)
  • FixedVelocities don't keep working after you delete them (only happened in the editor)

I know what a boolean is, but I got very confused when you said "ArmRotation is just a boolean property" I understand how it works now.
