Mounting problems

#1 Need moorrreee innputttt

#2 ahm... all I can think of is that its happening with the vehicles.

anything else in mind?

#3 Like I can't even mount a wheeled Vehicle, and I can't see why not.

#4 You need to be much more specific. Post your mounting code, for starters...

#5 player.cs line 2655 (ok so I added alot lol)
-------------------------------------------------

// Vehicle timeout

{
// Only mount drivers for now.
%node = 0;
%col.mountable=true;// Set Vehicle Unmountable
%col.mountObject(%obj,%node);
%obj.mVehicle = %col;
}
else
{
%obj.damage(0, VectorAdd(%obj.getPosition(),%vec), 20, "Impact");// to Run over players
// %vecLen * %this.speedDamageScale
}
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------


function Player::mountVehicles(%this,%bool)
{
// If set to false, this variable disables vehicle mounting.
%this.mountVehicle = %bool;
}

function Player::isPilot(%this)
{
%vehicle = %this.getObjectMount();
// There are two "if" statements to avoid a script warning.
if (%vehicle)
if (%vehicle.getMountNodeObject(0) == %this)
return true;
return false;
}
---------------------------------------------------
and the flying vehicle .cs which should be around somewhere, also the wheeled vehicle file from the that project on the vehicles.

I'm pretty sure that is it all. should there be any more somewhere?

Thanks!

#6 Is that code ok? should it work? can anything stop it else where?

Because this is really confuseing to me.

Edward

#7 Doubt it is your problem, but I can see one syntax error:

You have the last line of your "Armor::onCollision"
function commented out.

// %vecLen * %this.speedDamageScale
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

#8 Thanks, it didn't say anything :-/. But I bet it helps.

Edward

#9 anymore in-sights?

btw when I uncoment that bit it doesn't compile.

#10 Are you using the standard unmodified player datablock in server/scripts/player.cs ?

#11 no it has been moded

#12 in your playerdata block, do you still have this?

className = Armor;

If not, you should, since your mounting methods are Armor.

Also, your vehicle model needs mount points, at least mount0.

your vehicle data block also needs, at a minimum, this:


mountPose[0] = "sitting";
numMountPoints = 1;

and your player model needs a "sitting" sequence. IF you are using the default player character, then you should be covered there.

#13 Thanks, it works now :-), not sure how I got rid of it.

Thanks again!

Edward
