uMod - Removing non entity doors - Rust

Posted 7 years ago

Last updated 6 years ago

Hi everyone
im new here, and happy to join you all on Umod.

I have a problem that I would like you to help me with, if you can.
I want to remove some doors around monuments, but they are not entities. So my question is, is there any way to remove them anyway ?

Depends on what you mean by "Door"; a Barricade is a BaseEntity so you ought to be able to find them with a more generic method which searches for just BaseEntity or BaseCombatEntity. These are often found in doorways, and lead to actual rooms.

BaseEntity > BaseCombatEntity > DecayEntity > Barricade

Also many actual doors are part of the static map and may not be modified or removed. They could only be modified with a map editor. Such technology is being developed (thanks to FP opening up their mapping API) though none is yet available (AFAIK).

If you already have the location of the monuments, you can use Vis helpers and a method like this.

List<T> FindEntities<T>(Vector3 position, float distance) where T : BaseEntity
{
    var list = Pool.GetList<T>();
    Vis.Entities(position, distance, list, layerMasks);
    return list;
}

example usages..

var barricades = FindEntities<Barricade>(monument.transform.position, distance_from_center);

foreach (var barricade in barricades)
{
   barricade.Kill();
}

Pool.FreeList(ref barricades); // this is necessary to ensure the memory is cleaned up optimally

To speed up the Vis helpers, you ought to specify a layer mask..

int layerMasks = LayerMask.GetMask("Construction","Deployed");
