Wire Ranger range limit

Eyjafjallajökull · December 2013

The other day when i was building a radar on the server, i noticed the small range of wire rangers.

The radar (which btw, im not trying to put on a ship) had this really small range limit at 2000 but that is only near half a cruiser, (my size) so there is no way i could possibly build something useful that requires that much range.

The radar was supposed to be my warning system because on most maps you have a hard time looking into space through the atmosphere, i do admit it may be primitive and kinda useless when you think about it but building a radar isn't the only thing you can do with a ranger that requires plus 2000 range.

This is something i think will not destroy the server by changing but only helping players with their many projects.

Best Regards
Eyjafjallajökull

Its a wireteam thing, I told you that yesterday. Your best bet for anything related to standard wiremod changes is going to their github page and suggesting it.

in the meantime you can use this glorious e2, which acts as a ranger in the direction of the red gear on the top of the entity

@name space ranger
@inputs 
@outputs &#91;E&#93;:entity
@persist 
@trigger 

interval(25)

rangerFilter(entity())
E = ranger(99999):entity()

if you don't want it to point forward you can always use

rangerOffset(Dist,Pos, directiion vector)

or rangerHull( Dist, box size vector )

Check all the documentation on http://wiki.wiremod.com/wiki/Expression ... -In_Ranger
