DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE!

Update:
1. Made electric lines look less "cartoonish".
2. Added script to disable toolbars while sim running. Makes a cleaner looking scene. I'm going to use this in all of my scenes from now on. Put this script in the "update" property of any geometry: app.gui.playMode = sim.running

3. Made the sparks look more realistic.
4. Added some chaotic wind to blow the wires around.
5. Fixed the "Zoom to scene" glitch that s_noonan found.

6. Added some black smoke (where there's fire, there's smoke).

Thanks, faytree! :)

Very cool :tup:
nice, seems real! :tup:
Gent & lololoer - Thanks a lot guys!

s_noonan - I struggled with the color of that yellow rope, but I can't get no satisfaction, so I just left it as-is.
You should thank faytree too! he was the first person to comment you scene with a comfortable comment to you! :) :tup:


Edit: Oh no, sorry i didnt see your comment! :lol:

Sorry for this question, but, If working as admin (Xray) you ear money, how much money do you earn? If not sorry for this question :lol:
lololer - We earn the equivalent of $10,000 Euros per month. We also have free use of the company jet airplane and the company boat. We get free meals, and every year Algoryx (the company that developed Algodoo) gives our families a free trip around the world with all expenses paid.




Just kidding! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

It is completely voluntary. We Admins get paid nothing at all. I do it because I like Algodoo very much, and I want to be a part of making Algobox a quality website that everyone can enjoy. I hope that answers your question. (Sorry about the joke! ;) )

Hahahahaha dont worry, i have seen the joke before reading the first paragraph hehe! :lol: :lol:
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime you just might find
You get what you need

For those of you who are translating:

Ewe Kant awl weighs jet watt ewe won it
Butt if ewe tri sum thyme ewe jest mite fined
ewe jet watt ewe knead (esp. hell Czech Ed)

I couldn't resist (pun intended).

Nice scene by the way (Maybe I should have mentioned that a long time ago). I like the code. Looks like you spent some thyme on it.
You could make it a little bit more realistic just spawning some smoke and a big explosioning illumination! :cool:

Edit: What is the script that makes a geometry unclickable? :s

s_noonan - You are in the wrong business. Maybe your future should be in writing song lyrics. :lol: Thanks for the compliment.

lololoer - If you would like to improve it, please be my guest. Make any changes that you want, and upload the changed scene. I want to see what you can do with it! I added code to remove the toolbars while the sim is running. After you stop the simulation, you should be able to click on the geometries.
Xray, i like it to, however i do have questines quite often, and 2 of em hasent been anserd, 1 question is on dust particle controllable, the other is on my latest scean, weird engine
buildman - I am not the only person who answers questions. There are other knowledgeable people on Algobox who could answer your questions if they want to and if they have time. Also, keep in mind that although I am an Admin, I do not look at every scene and answer every question. That's not my job. I will answer questions as I have time to, and only if I have an answer.

Thanks

Good scene except "Zoom to scene" brings you to the outer limits never to return.
I noticed that too while editing the scene but I have no idea what causes that. Maybe there's a junk object hiding in that section of the Algodoo world but I don't know how to find it short of digging into the phz file.

Any ideas?

UPDATE: I FOUND IT! I found an invisible polygon in some far off distant galaxy about a trillion light-years from Algodoo's origin coordinates. I deleted that little devil, and now that issue you brought to my attention no longer exists. Yay!

Thanks for fixing that. I had found the stray polygon by deleting the power line image and everything in it and then zooming to what's left. I figured the hard part would be to get back to that exact spot after reloading the scene.
