How to Script in Horizon Worlds | Scripting Projectiles | VR shooting range Tutorial Part 3

[@EchoDarkFireGaming]

This series is going to be huge in the coming months as more people get quests. Great job

[@JackaldudeVR]

Thanks so much I hope so! It’ll be exciting to see a whole bunch of new creators playing in Horizon.

[@joe-uq7qi]

Thank you very much. It is difficult for a person who does not know anything about programming to start doing something in an environment like horizon. This turorial has been clear and direct. I have managed to make my first functional object. thanks again

[@JackaldudeVR]

That’s so exciting! Thank you for sharing! These are my favorite comments. Just keep playing and experimenting. The concepts of programming will come to you naturally.

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

wrong, it's a cluster fist-fcuk video that does not show shiit but mistakes

[@michaelgrier44]

Great video, keep them coming. You are the first person I have seen make a video on scripting that is easy to follow and you do great actually explaining the reason for each thing instead of assuming everyone knows.

[@JackaldudeVR]

You win my favorite comment of the year! That’s exactly what I’m going for and I’m so happy it was helpful. Planning on doing more tutorials even after this series wraps up. Thanks for taking the time to comment!

[@jumpersfilmedinvr]

Sweet. I thrive finding instructions for horizon Worlds. I know a few puppeteers in horizon Worlds. They're the cream of the crop.

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

LMAO! I WAS RIGHT! within 3:58 , you said "NOW PRESS TO UNSELECT THIS GIZMO" and there's no option to do that. THEND

[@ryankeys9044]

WOW!! Great vids man! Info overload! I’m new to all of this. Thanks for the help

[@JackaldudeVR]

It’s a lot but you’ll get the hang of it and then the wheel will start turning. I plan on making a discord soon where people can talk about their projects!

[@thetangibles8242]

I been tying to watch scripting videos and you are the best teacher so far, thanks man... I am trying to make a percussion instrument.. trying to link my drum sticks to the triggers on the pads and I am missing something. Getting the sound blocks to link with the triggers or something I am missing lol..

[@JackaldudeVR]

Thank means a lot thank you so much! When working with triggers make sure you go into the properties panels of the trigger and set a tag for the “objects tagged” section and then make sure your drumsticks are tagged the same. If that makes sense lol

[@thetangibles8242]

@@JackaldudeVR I DID IT!!!!

[@JackaldudeVR]

Awesome! That’s the best feeling when you get a script working. Congrats you fixed your first bug!

[@CoachLasker]

Appreciate these videos man. Keep it up. Any chance you know how to keep the stream continuous? I want to make a laser pointer if possible…. Thanks again!

[@JackaldudeVR]

For something like that I’d look into the raycasting gizmo rather than the projectile launcher. I’ll try to make a video using it soon

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

also, you did NOT show the GRAB ANCHOR TO ON position, yet your green/blue hand is already there. another missed step. bro.

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

this will be the second time watching this video and watching it fail even before i watch it lol. im guessing within 5:00 it'll have a missing step and it's all shiit from there. . . let's find out...

[@JesseRayWilliams]

Love the videos! Thanks for jumping on so early! I cant find any info on this game. Is their a way I can script a motion block to drive a car? And are their henges i can build for doors or steering? Iv modeled a mantion and need a engine in the Garage! Any info will help! Thanks.

[@JackaldudeVR]

You can script a whole object to move the tricky part is have enough inputs with a grabbable object to have it go in all the directions you want. But totally possible!

[@jacobwonder6735]

Great content! I have a few notes as a fellow creator though! This series is not grouped together in any way, so other peoples KZbin channels are audio playing after, having this as a playlist would be awesome. Also, your audio is GREAT, but too quiet! When it autoplayed Linus tech tips, I literally jumped.

[@JackaldudeVR]

All great tips! Thanks for the constructive criticism. Definitely will take all the help I can get!

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

do i hack your hand off and use that for the green hand?!? lmao

[@TechSquidTV]

Could you share how to change the grab point? my gun will only be help sideways haha

[@JackaldudeVR]

Haha that’s kinda funny. All you how to do is rotate and move that hand that appears when you turn on grab point BUT make sure you don’t have snapping turned on or it won’t let you grab the hand. Hope that helps!

[@fizx4121]

Thanks!

[@JackaldudeVR]

My pleasure! Hope it helped!

[@Jacob__1059]

Hey man I have watched all the part videos and followed every step correctly. I move my projectile to where I wanna fire, but as soon as I do that, I can’t grab onto the gun anymore. Did I do something wrong?

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at 3:48 THE TWO ITEMS WERE NOT GROUPED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and all of a fkn sudden they ARE GROUPED AT 4:15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how can something be grouped and WHAM out of nowhere in your video they're supposed to be grouped!!!??!!!! you said THE PROJECTILE LAUNCHER AND THE GUN ARE NOT GROUPED AT 3:48 in the video. and then youu're speaking as if they ARE GROUPED and it shows the two GROUPED with the blue rectangle outline of them BEING GROUPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! are you on drugs doing this bro?!? is this the problem?!?

[@cadekelley3405]

Hey man would there be any way to make a speaker that you could live play KZbin videos on so I could make a karaoke world?

[@JackaldudeVR]

Unfortunately that just something Horizon World doesn’t allow but that is a really cool idea. It’s being updated all the time so hopefully in the future. You can make a boom box with the music available in horizon but none of them have lyrics I don’t think

[@JackaldudeVR]

Well actually now that I think about it you could record a whole sone using the recording gizmo but idk what kind of quality you’d get

[@nicholasbelanger-jussaume6746]

Hey great video! Ive been able to build a magic wand spitting fire on the first day! I have 2 problems that i cant seem to find the answer: 1. Can you make bullets interact/collide with other objects? Id like my fireballs to make my cubes go flying when they hit them, now they just pass through and my cubes are set to physics. 2. Can projectiles collide with one another? For example: i have a wand who throws fireball and another one who throws a giant sphere, i would like that when the fireball collides with the giant sphere it gets desyroyed, but again they just pass through. Thanks a lot for the help great video!

[@JackaldudeVR]

Thank for the comment. Ok first in the properties panel of your launcher make sure collides with static objects is turned on and there should be a drop down menu right above that to make it collide with all interactive objects. I hope this helps for now but I’ll be going over some of this a little later in the series.

[@nicholasbelanger-jussaume6746]

@@JackaldudeVR hey thanks for the response! I just encountered another issue though and theres not a lot of help online! Is it normal that in the script saying "when colliding with object" we cannot change "obj"? I tried putting a variable to refer to one object in particular but it just couldnt change? Thanks a lot!

[@JackaldudeVR]

So for that in particular object need to be properly tagged. So go into the properties panel of the object with the script and find the section when it interacts with an object with a certain “tag”. Then go to the properties panel with the object you want the scripted object to interact with and set its tag to the same thing as the other tag you made. Hopefully that all made sense lol

[@nicholasbelanger-jussaume6746]

@@JackaldudeVR ohh thanks a lot that makes alot of sense and thank you for all the help it is so much appreciated! keep on making these tutorials they are so clear and helpful! :)

[@JackaldudeVR]

Will do and glad I could help!

[@leonardosanchez1248]

Would making the shooter local affect multiplayer?

[@JackaldudeVR]

Not as long as you are not trying to manipulate persistent player variables in the script you are making local. I also should mention local scripts have been a bit buggy so at this time it might be better to leave scripts on default if you can

[@jamesmclean1783]

Is there a video for how to take a gun like this and make it automatic? I tried using the event delay function in a while statement but can't get that to work, Could be using the event delay function incorrectly though.

[@JackaldudeVR]

I do plan on making videos for all the firing types. I’d stay away from the while statements and instead use a bool. Have the bool be true when index trigger is pressed and false when index trigger is released. Then only launch the delay function if the bool is true. Hope that helps a little.

[@AmarieDarvai]

Ok, so I got that lever we were talking about to work after hours of crafting, but now I’m stuck on trying to get the “look at” function for eyes to work. I can get it to look at the player when they enter but I can’t get it to follow the player. Ideas?

[@JackaldudeVR]

So if you got it to look at the player all you have to do is put that command in a loop. Then it will look at the player every time the loop runs making it look like they are following the player

[@AmarieDarvai]

@@JackaldudeVR I’ll try that, thanks!

[@JackaldudeVR]

Hope that helps! I make event loops in my new videos if that helps too!

[@KuyaRhamz]

Please i really badly need help for this part 2:05 specially 3:23 i try and everything you explained but its not working i can fire but the problem the gizmo not movin even i group it and the output is cant grabble.. so complicatied ive been fixing this thing for almost 9 hours im stackkk

[@JackaldudeVR]

Ok here are some things I would double check. When you add the gizmo to the group and you are in that dark mode. Make sure the gizmo is selected and has the wire framing when you enter that mode but definitely make sure you unselect it and it no longer has that wire framing when you leave the dark mode. If it still has that wire framing when you leave that dark group mode you are actually pulling that gizmo out of the group. If that’s not working you can try to regroup the whole thing by holding your index trigger down and slide it your hand through the gizmo and the model to make a new group. Hope this helps!

thank you

[@brendenpaquette1815]

Is there anyway to import this on to my own map? Would love to use it

[@JackaldudeVR]

Technically you could but honestly if you just want to import a gun you’d probably be better off with the projectile pre set world when you make a new one

Having issues with my script. Once I combine everything the gun will shoot the projectile, I even have a sound animation that works. But if I attempt to change the color of the projectile after firing it the projectile turns invisible or stops working but the sfx still works when trigger is pulled. Any idea on what I’m doing wrong? My script was {when index trigger is pressed by (player) {launch projectile from (bullet variable) {Play sound on (sfx variable) Combined all objects and attached script variables. It worked went into test mode shot the gun projectile shot it was default white and had sound. Went back to creating mode changed color of the projectile from white to blue. Headed back into test mode no projectile but sfx was still there. I attempted to erase my variables from my script and detach entire script from the gun. Re did variables re attached script to gun. Still no projectile but still have the sound. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

[@nordicaryanAntiZog]

and yet another fk up dude...wtf does "CLICK UP TO UNSELECT THE GIZMO" mean and what part of the gizmo?!?!? clicking UP doesn't do anything but make a sound of CLICK itself. what do we click up to unselect what gizmo where !?!?! at 3:45 dude..let's review this dude....ready..?...so i didnt see any option of "CLICK TO UNSELECT PROJECTILE LAUNCHER GIZMO" so i clicked "X" to remove the properties panel. because that's the only thing that UNSELECTS IT dude. it's not on the screen it's unselectable ffs lol. wow man just wow. . . . .

shiznit, i'll make me a video to explain something so i'll start at step 5 and skip a few too, you'll have to fill in the blanks just to cnt-fist your brain lol

this is nearly impossible to watch. start using the stabilization function for screen recording. don't' move your hands as much when you're explaining, think about slowly moving your head and no circling of your hands at the same time. good info 10/10 though.
