question with creating a wall attached node

[rubberduck]

i have a question with creating a wall attached node
i made two lamp models with the node box editor, one is standing, the other has to be attached on a wall.

i added both now into the game to see how they look, but i want them to be one node in game.

if i place the lamp on the ground, i want to have the standing version and when i place it on the wall, i want the wall version. how can i do that?

i also want to align the wall-node with the right side on the wall and i want to rotate the top texture without rotating the image.

here i have the code used at the moment

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

edit: forgot to post it in the mod questions topic

Carbone does this for signs, torches and ladders, but beware, you can apparently use only one tile set for all the variations.

[LionsDen]

Well, you can create two nodes and just have it change between them based on facedir. Maybe use the on_place or on_construct or something like those.

[addi]

you can look at Semmett9's 3d torch mod.

the function rotateTorch is may exactly what you need.
