garrys mod radar
THE AIM: build a working radar which displays direction and range of any object it picks up. Without the use of expression gates or CPU chips, and all the programming malarky that goes along with them. The radar displays its maximum range with the blue outline, the green dot represents the radar itself, and finally the red dots are objects picked up by the radar. The red ring which fades is simply the default i have set up to show no targets in the radars range (currently set to 5000). The radar is not 100% fool proof, it has to have a decent sized object to contact with e.g a person facing it. The radar can pick up people sideways on but it doesn't always. Also this is my first version and so there are quite a few improvements i am looking to make. For instance the current version is not very good at picking up moving targets, and also i would like to make a screen which displays a 2d image of what the hologram is showing allowing the radar to be used in vehicles etc. I will be putting the improved versions on also when they are made. Finally there is a save file and an advanced duplicator file available at the following link: http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=85346 Thank you for watching, and i hope you enjoy it.
