How would I simulate an earthquake effect with screen shaking.

Thanks!

You could try using pixel offsets

You would do it by randomly moving the 'camera' around. This used to be possible only by moving the player's eye around to turfs next to him and as such, but in BYOND 4.0 the client's eye can be pixel-offset for finer movements.

I prefer get_step(), its simple and straight forward and it has a duration.

mob
    proc
        Quake_Effect(duration)
            if(!src.client)return
            spawn(1)
                var/oldeye=src.client.eye
                var/x
                for(x=0;x<duration,x++)
                    src.client.eye = get_step(src,pick(NORTH,SOUTH,EAST,WEST))
                    sleep(1)
                src.client.eye=oldeye

Uh, excuse me, but it doesn't look like you really know what you're talking about. I admit you do know how to copy code from demos, though. ;P But you should try to refrain from talking about such code if you don't fully understand it.
