Rainbow Bananas?

I was fiddling a bit with teleportation of objects and all such and noticed something: Terra Reborn seems to produce rainbow colored bananas into the nothing! You can call them so to your Hand:
targ pntr setv va00 posx setv va01 posy enum 2 8 6767 mvto va00 va01 next


Did anybody else notice thos strange Bananas? As I said, it is only with the room Terra Reborn and only when it already exists in the world for a while.

Sorry for double post, but actually was this topic meant to clear up the questions: do you (if you have Terra Reborn) also those freaky colored bananas anywhere in the world when you call them to the hand (see code in previous post)?

Maybe posting this topic in the Help forum, and making clear the want for help, would've prompted a faster response. Would you like me to move it?

Yes, moving it might help. Thank you

I think I'll take a look on the scripts of Terra Reborn. Rainbow-Bananas don't appear from nothing, at least not from the point of view a coder has.

If anybody is willing to help me I might try to fix that and some other things in TB. Someone interested?

How? "Failed" is a bit too unclear to work with.

Then redownload it again.

That all is going too far away from the topic I wanted! >.< I only want to clear up the riddle of the rainbow bananas and maybe make some minor fixes on TB and not help other people to get their doors working... :\

On the other hand... Maybe we find out why the doors don't work and directly integrate it into that fix.

Ratkinzluver, perhaps you should start your own help topic about your difficulties with Terra Reborn, and then people can carry on helping you there. This topic is for Papriko's question about the Rainbow Bananas. :)

I've not seen the Rainbow Bananas, Papriko, but that doesn't mean much... Best of luck with the patch!

Could you please take a screenshot? Terra Reborn is DS-only, right?

Having a brain-dead moment here, but how do I get into Terra reborn? Where's the door?

A screenshot? Okay, I'll do that. I will post it here in the screenshots gallery.

@ Laura: I also only found them because I played a lot with CAOS and positions and such. Without the command (or a similar one) I posted it is almost impossible to get them.

And no, I did not create them. Any CAOS coder can tell you that that what I posted just calls existing objects to the hand. It is no gag of me :P



EDIT: Okaaaaaay, that's odd. In the world I discovered the bananas they are not longer rainbow colored, but the variables like ATTR, ACCG and AERO of them are messed. Some of them are like feather+rubber ball crosses, and there are also 1 or 2 which are not possible to be carried.
I think I also discovered how they get created: when you push the banana plant, it vends some bananas. When you push it again and again and again while it is vending it always goes on.
The scripter(s) forgot to lock the banana plant. When you push it again the script also restarts and does not have time to vend the bananas properly. That would also explain the messed ATTR and all such: the plant gets interrupted before it can set them!

And this is is why I think coders should use the Creation script more to set object variables. ;) Saves a lot of hassle if used properly.
