Config: YellowChip

A collectable yellow chip. Usually five of these are linked together by a YellowChipGroup to trigger a switch to spawn another object, for example a Launch Star. It's usually stationary, but it can move on a path as well.

Arguments

Name	Type	Games	Required?	Description	Values
Obj_arg0	Integer	Both	True	Yellow Chip Group ID: The group ID of this object, the other Yellow Star Chips and their controller.
Obj_arg2	Integer	Both	False	Shadow Calculation: If set, the shadow's drop direction will use the object's gravity vector instead of calculating the shadow direction once.
Obj_arg3	Boolean	Both	False	Inside Bubble?: If true, the chip will be placed inside an Air Bubble.
Obj_arg4	Float	Both	False	Shadow Length: Sets the shadow drop length. Default is 2000.
Obj_arg5	Integer	Both	False	Shadow Type: Specifies the shadow model type.	-1: Sphere 0: Cylinder
Path_arg4	Integer	Both	False	Initial Position Type: The object's initial position.	-1: Start at nearest position on path 1: Start at nearest path point 2: Start at first path point
Path_arg5	Integer	SMG2	False	Snapping Speed: If used, the object stays at its original position and moves to its actual position on the path. This setting specifies how fast the object snaps back into its original position. The higher the value is, the slower it moves.
Point_arg0	Integer	Both	False	Movement Speed / Time: The movement speed the object has starting from this point. If Point_arg7 is set to 1, this specifies the time in frames it takes to reach the next point.
Point_arg1	Integer	Both	False	Acceleration Time: The time in frames it takes for the object to reach the movement speed set at this point.
Point_arg5	Integer	Both	False	Stop Time: The time in frames the object waits at this point before it continues moving again.
Point_arg7	Integer	Both	False	Speed Type: Decides whether Point_arg0 specifies the movement speed or the time it takes to reach the next point.	-1: Point_arg0 specifies movement speed 1: Point_arg0 specifies time until next point

MapParts arguments

Name	Games	Required?	Description	Values

Switches

Name	Games	Required?	Description
SW_APPEAR	Both	False	Appears when this switch is activated.
SW_PARAM	SMG2	False	The path movement speed is adjusted with ParamScale while this switch is activated.
SW_AWAKE	SMG2	False	Enables rendering and resumes updates when this switch is active.

Setup

Name	Games	Required?	Description	Values
