Vehicle mounting problems

by Ronald J Nelson · in Technical Issues · 08/31/2005 (7:38 pm) · 4 replies

Has anyone worked out a way that you can spawn in your vehicle at the start of the game. I don't mean spawn as a vehicle, but with the player already mounted in a vehicle?

Thanks in advance.

Well it looks like someone beat me to this one. Found the answer right here.

OK but here is my newest problem and after reveiwing over 100 posts I found that apparently some of you have a solution for this but the answer wasn't written.

So here it is.
1. How can you map a keyboard command to cause the player to exit the vehicle? Specifically what command would you call upon?

2. How can you make the vehicle mount option not automatic? I realize this is possible but when I tried to create a condition for it, it disabled all input commands. Not good. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Well I did manage to get this one to work with a mixture of two different resources, a bit of luck, and the help of a couple guys on IRC.
