Multi-Slot Weapon System

by joint heir · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 06/10/2005 (11:45 am) · 4 replies

Hi everybody. I'm trying to script a multi-slot weapon system. Below is an example of how I want the logic to work:

Example: (On pick up) Weapon checks for object located in slot 0. If object is in slot 0, check for object in slot 1. If no object is found mount weapon in slot 1.

Please help me with scripting this! I've got a short time to do this & i've gone over weapon.cs in various examples time after time again! Need Some Help Soon!!! Thanx!

By multi slots do you mean more than one weapon mounted (used) at the same time, or just in the inventory ?

Yes. say there would be a rifle in the default slot (mount0) and a knife/pistol etc. in slot 1 (mount1)

My idea is that this could also be used to "show" the weapon mounted somewhere on the body of the character as if it were in a holster, or strapped to the players back.

Maybe u take a look into the scripts of legends (http://www.legendsthegame.net/)
or tribes2.
I think both got this to mount the energy module and some other stuff.
Rename the data .unf and scripts.unf to *.zip and unzip it .
..hmm and i think theres a mod for legends that uses shoulder mounted weapons and such stuff.
