Spawn Functions

Global functions that deal with anything related to making something appear. from a simple explosion - to an entire platform.

Explosions:

Spawn Explosion

Spawns an explosion with a given position + scale.

SpawnExplosion(number x, number y, number scale)

Example:

SpawnExplosion(-10, 10, 10) -- Spawns a giant explosion at (-10, 10)

Projectiles:

Spawn Arrow

Spawns an arrow with a given position, scale, velocity, and color.

SpawnArrow(number x, number y, number scale, number xVel, number yVel, number R, number G, number B, number A)

Example:

SpawnArrow(0, 10, 1, 0, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0)

Spawn Grenade

Spawns a grenade with a given position, scale, velocity, and angular velocity.

SpawnGrenade(number x, number y, number scale, number xVel, number yVel, number angularVel)

Example:

SpawnGrenade(11, 13, 0.5, 0, -3, 0)

Spawn Smoke Grenade

Spawns a smoke grenade with a given position, scale, velocity, and angular velocity.

SpawnSmokeGrenade(number x, number y, number scale, number xVel, number yVel, number angularVel)

Example:

SpawnSmokeGrenade(0, 10, 1, 0, -3, 1)

Bopl Bodies:

Spawn Mine

Spawns a mine with a given position, scale, velocity, chase radius, and optional chasing.

~ default chase radius: 3

SpawnMine(number x, number y, number scale, number xVel, number yVel, number radius, bool chase)

Example:

SpawnMine(0, 0, 1, 0, 5, 3, true) -- Spawns a mine with upwards velocity 5 at (0, 0)

Spawn Boulder

Spawns a boulder with a given position, scale, velocity, angular velocity, type, and color.

~ valid types are: "grass", "snow", "ice", "robot", "space", "slime"

SpawnBoulder(number x, number y, number scale, number xVel, number yVel, number angularVel, string type, number R, number G, number B, number A)

Example:

SpawnBoulder(0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 3, "slime", 1, 1, 1, 1)

Spawn Platform

Spawns a slime platform (like the platform ability) with a given position, width, height, radius, rotation, and color.

SpawnPlatform(number x, number y, number width, number height, number radius, number rotation, number R, number G, number B, number A)

Example:

SpawnPlatform(0, 0, 10, 5, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1)

Spike

Spawn Spike

Spawns a spike on a specified precentage* around the surface a given platform, with varying scale and distance.

* precentage is 0-1

BoplBody SpawnSpike(platform attachedPlatform, number precentAroundSurface, number scale, number offset)

Example:

plat = platforms[1]
spike = SpawnSpike(plat, 0, 1, 0) -- Spawns a normal size spike on the top of the platform

Spawn Spike At Position

Spawns a spike in a specified position - linked to the given platform (dont have to be directly on it but moves with it), with varying scale and distance.

BoplBody SpawnSpikeAtPosition(platform attachedPlatform, number x, number y, number scale, number offset)

Example:

p = player1.GetPlatform()
x, y = player1.GetPosition()
SpawnSpikeAtPosition(p, x, y, 0.5, 0)

Other

Spawn Black Hole

Spawns a black hole at a given position.

SpawnBlackHole(number x, number y, number scale)

Example:

hole = SpawnBlackHole(0, 10, -5) -- Spawns a white hole at (0, 10)
