Finally bring some PCs in.

I’m a PC and I’m way cool.

Adding PCs
#

Starting out simple, we just make a LivePC table that’s essentially the same as the LiveNPC table, and start pushing regular PC updates to it. Then we augment the NPCLite class to include an isPC flag, and let the NpcManager handle it.

  result = DragonsSpine.DAL.DBNPC.GetAllNpcsAndPcs(mapNum);

Ugly, yes, but it’ll get us started.

We add a Material for our favorite test account, Testttt, and we’re in business:

Hi there!

Follow cam

We want to be able to have the camera follow the NPC or PC that we’ve selected. We’ll expand the “look at a random NPC” code for now:

void Update () {
  if (followingCharId != 0) {
    CellLoc newFollowingCL = npcManager.locateNpc(followingCharId);
    if (!newFollowingCL.Equals(followingCL)) {
      followingV3 = CLUtils.CellLocToVector3(newFollowingCL, 1);
      mainCamera.lookAtNpc(followingV3);
      if (!newFollowingCL.z.Equals(followingCL.z)) {
        mapManager.UpdateZ(newFollowingCL.z);
      }
      followingCL = newFollowingCL;
    }
  }
  if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.N)) {
    followingCharId = npcManager.getRandomNpc();
  }
  if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.P)) {
    followingCharId = npcManager.getRandomPc();
  }
  if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)) {
    followingCharId = 0;
  }

So now N will choose a random NPC to follow, P will choose a random PC to follow, and F will stop following. Let’s see how well it works on Testttt.

Even between Z layers!
