Yes! I created an o_range() proc to replace orange() (what kind of friut names functions after fruits? hehe...) that returns a much wider area using block(), as you suggested. I was, in fact, able to scan the entire 100 x 100 playing field... although my radar stations probably won't have that kind of range in the game...

I forgot about orange() being limited to 2* world.view... Thanx for the reminder, Abyss!

BTW, where's the banana() and apple() procs?

It's not a fruit, and for those of you who still think it is here's a lession:

view is to oview

range is to orange

Gee, aren't you the clever one at catching jokes.

I was being uptight, I caught the joke I got a small laugh, then I felt like being uptight about it.

Sitting back in my old 3d engine.

Oddly enough, it stored the originating point of a ray in orgz, orgx.. and orgy. I didn't think anything of it until my programming teacher started laughing when I asked her something..

You should look through the other messages on this thread. That should be enough to help you.

<PRE> Is just like <XMP> and <PRE> put together on these forums anyways, usally <PRE> lets you use the font tag, but using it here acts just like XMP.

I was referring to browser compatibility in general. <XMP> is an outdated tag, but some browsers can use it -- others must rely on the functionality of PRE and CODE, which doesn't encode the HTML tags in the file.

DM probably alleviates all of this by manually encoding the HTML elements (like < into &gt;) in the snippet that it quotes.

I was wanting to know if I cold ake it so that the radar was like a obj i could place down and make it so that ever one in that oview(10) came up in the radar ibstead of it being the mobs in the oview(10) of u it would be the oview of obj rador is that posible??

Indeed it is! Using the valuble info provided in this thread, I made a radar that works exactly as you (poorly) described. Here's is the EXACT code ripped from my game:

mob/var/running=0

obj/radar/red
    icon='bases.dmi' // pick whatever icon you want
    icon_state="red_comm"
    var/obj/radar_screen/screen = null

    Click()
        if(usr:running) return
        screen=new(null,usr)
        usr.hud()
        usr:running = 1
        // do something here to add this to the events list
        spawn(5) Update()

    proc/Update()
        if(screen) screen.Update()

obj/radar_screen
    var/rrange=30
    icon='radar.dmi'
    layer = MOB_LAYER + 2
    icon_state = ""
    screen_loc = "14,1"

    New(newloc,mob/M)
        if(M.client) M.client.screen+=src
            Move()
                return

    proc/Update() // call this via an event loop
        var/icon/ic=new /icon('radar.dmi',"")
        var/obj/radar/red/RR = locate()
        if(rrange)
            for(var/mob/red/M in o_range(rrange,RR))
                var/dx=round((M.x-RR.x)*10/rrange,1)
                var/dy=round((M.y-RR.y)*10/rrange,1)
                var/icon/pix=new /icon('radar.dmi',"red_pixel")
                pix.Shift(EAST,dx)
                pix.Shift(NORTH,dy)
                ic.Blend(pix,ICON_OVERLAY)
            for(var/mob/green/M in o_range(rrange,RR))
                var/dx=round((M.x-RR.x)*10/rrange,1)
                var/dy=round((M.y-RR.y)*10/rrange,1)
                var/icon/pix=new /icon('radar.dmi',"green_pixel")
                pix.Shift(EAST,dx)
                pix.Shift(NORTH,dy)
                ic.Blend(pix,ICON_OVERLAY)
            for(var/mob/blue/M in o_range(rrange,RR))
                var/dx=round((M.x-RR.x)*10/rrange,1)
                var/dy=round((M.y-RR.y)*10/rrange,1)
                var/icon/pix=new /icon('radar.dmi',"blue_pixel")
                pix.Shift(EAST,dx)
                pix.Shift(NORTH,dy)
                ic.Blend(pix,ICON_OVERLAY)
            for(var/mob/black/M in o_range(rrange,RR))
                var/dx=round((M.x-RR.x)*10/rrange,1)
                var/dy=round((M.y-RR.y)*10/rrange,1)
                var/icon/pix=new /icon('radar.dmi',"black_pixel")
                pix.Shift(EAST,dx)
                pix.Shift(NORTH,dy)
                ic.Blend(pix,ICON_OVERLAY)
        icon=ic
        spawn(5) Update()

    proc/o_range(var/range as num,var/atom/center)
        var/start_x = center.x - range
        var/start_y = center.y - range
        var/end_x = center.x + range
        var/end_y = center.y + range

        if(start_x < 1) start_x = 1
        if(start_y < 1) start_y = 1
        if(end_x > 100) end_x = 100
        if(end_y > 100) end_y = 100

        var/turfs[] = block(locate(start_x,start_y,center.z),locate(end_x,end_y,center.z))
        var/contents[] = list()
        var/turf/T
        for(T in turfs)
            contents += T.contents
        return contents


This is set to track players of 4 diffrent colors, displaying an appropiatly colored dot for each mob in range. Of course, you will probably have to change a thing or two to get it to work with your code, but the foundation is solid! Thanx Lummox!
