Throwing Weapons

#1 well I think we call get it .. but do other weapons work? if so it should work anyway ...

#2 The other weapons work.

I think It has something to do with the noammo stuff, but I'm not sure.

#3 make sure you have the "ammo = whateverammo;" in your image for your throwing weapon, or else it wont check for the ammo.

#4 Haha, I must have run into the funniest bug. I accidently set the weapon to throw itself constantly. So the player is standing there tossing frisbees on the ground and never stops. Technically he should only have one weapon and it should delete it when it's thrown. Maybe someone else can spot the problems.

stateName[0]                     = "Activate";
   stateTransitionOnTimeout[0]      = "Ready";
   stateTimeoutValue[0]             = 0.6;
   stateSequence[0]                 = "Activate";

   stateName[1]                     = "Ready";
   stateTransitionOnNoAmmo[1]       = "Fire";
   stateTransitionOnTriggerDown[1]  = "Fire";

   stateName[2]                     = "Fire";
   stateTransitionOnTimeout[2]      = "Ready";
   stateTimeoutValue[2]             = 0.2;
   stateFire[2]                     = true;
   stateRecoil[2]                   = LightRecoil;
   stateAllowImageChange[2]         = false;
   stateSequence[2]                 = "Fire";
   stateScript[2]                   = "onFire";

How do I make it fire the weapon and then stop?


Now the second problem... why doesn't the weapon dissapear from the players hands when it's thrown? Is it because of the code above or am I doing something wrong in my onFire code?

function FrisbeeImage::onFire(%this, %obj, %slot)
{
   %obj.decInventory(%this, 1);

   %muzzleVector = %obj.getMuzzleVector(%slot);
   %objectVelocity = %obj.getVelocity();
   %muzzleVelocity = VectorAdd(
      VectorScale(%muzzleVector, %projectile.muzzleVelocity),
      VectorScale(%objectVelocity, %projectile.velInheritFactor));

   %fris = new item() {
     dataBlock        = Frisbee;
   };
   %pos = %obj.getMuzzlePoint(%slot);
   %fris.setTransform( %pos );
   %fris.applyImpulse(%pos, %muzzleVelocity);
   
   MissionCleanup.add(%fris);
   return %fris;
}
