The Tiller...

[EM4life]

I understand there are many patches that fix the tiller and it's explosion issue but I apparently make an exception. I recently noticed my tiller exploding when it get's near a fire... not like 5 feet close, I mean like two lanes of traffic close. Now don't tell me to, "Go download the patch, it fixes the ploblem, case closed" because I'm running 2.0.3 so I've got the latest patch. I just want a script from someone who's tiller doesn't explode, or someone to point out the line to edit in which script to fix the problem. Thank you for you time...

I am pretty sure you know how to use the editor so I am not going to go step by step, but to sum it up, edit the traits for the tiller. Now check the material in the bottom left corner. It should say something like Emvehichle3 or Emvehichle3b. If you cant figure it out check about 2 or 3 pages back in the bugs topic, or my submod topic. The exact material is listed there. You can use the search at the top right to search a thread.

Anyways check that and well if you have the correct setting, I have no idea. The tiller cant be fixed by a script. There nothing in a script that says the tiller is invincible. Its all in the material. If thats already correct, then sorry, I have no idea. :-/

Oh, ok...so there's not much of a way for you to send me a good version then huh...?

BTW: I changed both the tiller and it's installed counter part to "emergency vehicle 03" or something... hope it helps...

You can grab the 3 prototypes out of my submod if you want to try them(use the zshare link as it does not have an installer just the files.

I thought you just had to edit the traits so the resistance to 'Fire' was higher, not the actual material.

It was fixed in a patch back in 1.8 or 1.9.

Heres the post from Hoppah.

Ok, I changed them to "em vehicle 03" and it works, I just can't bring up a menu for the tiller. It's ok...it's just meant to be a ladder anyways...

Thank you for your help.

The trailer in does not have any commands. I tried to add the redirect command to it, and failed. I think it is due to the length of the trailer, the redirect barrier(which is invisible) is not far enough back.

Simple fix ^

[Xplorer4x4]

Then tell us the simple fix!

In LADirectionalLights.script, find:

				float dx = -100.f, dy = 0.f, dz = 0.f;

MAKE SURE IT IS THE SECOND ONE.

Replace with:

				float dx = -100.f, dy = 0.f, dz = 0.f;
				// Let's fix our friend tiller.
				if (StrCompare(v.GetPrototypeFileName(), "mod:Prototypes/Vehicles/02 LA Fire Department/tiller_trailer.e4p") == 0 || StrCompare(v.GetPrototypeFileName(), "mod:Prototypes/Vehicles/02 LA Fire Department/tiller_trailer_installed.e4p") == 0)
					dx = -200.f;

Save, assign the command to the trailer and the installed trailer.

Francis to the rescue!

[SirMoo]

I'm assuming it was a typo.

[EM4life]
