[GTA SA] Is it possible to <Introduce> this features with mods?

[Mauritium]

Hi people!

 

Today I was designing a map for my total conversion (Tomb Raider: Last Crusade) and I wonder if certain features from the Tomb Raider games could be introduced into the game with mods (Scripting) So... here are some questions:

 

 

 

First of all, I was thinking about the ability to climbing certain walls. I already saw a mod that does something similar, the Spider-Man mod, but in that modification, the player climbs in all of the vertical surfaces, that could be a problem for me because my maps would be too easy! Could it be that the player can only climb in certain .col types? (Let's say, "Wet rock" for example) So I would apply the colision type only on those walls I want the player to climb.

 

 

 

 

Second, and this is a tough one, the ability to displace in lateral movements while holding on the edge. That's a classic Tomb Raider move, I think the main problem when making this script would be the detection of the side edge, if the script is not written properly, the player could go out of the edge and "float" making lateral movements forever...

 

 

 

 

Third, the ability to grab the edges at anytime. This is a bit tricky to explain, CJ can grab an edge by jumping directly on it, but it can't grab it mid air when falling. That would be very helpful for making intricate and more interesting jumps.

Others:

 

Simple <non visual> inventory system (Finding keys placed on the ground for certain doors around the map)

Levers

Timed levers (You open a door, but it closes if certain time passes)

 

I was thinking about vending machines, they make sound, and force the player to stand on a certain position to work, maybe I can modify everything (Animation, model and sound) to make the visual representation of the lever, while a code could work for the action of the door. It's just an idea, I guess programmers would find a better solution for this

 

Do you think all of this is possible to make? It's easy for me to make all the artsy stuff (Animation, etc) but I don't know much about programming

I Think the Parkour Mod can do that
