Some errors I can't fix

[Taboen]

Can some people help me with a few errors I get with the following script?

And, if you have more time, I would like to spawn people with a shieltbelt. Preferable a configurable int from 0 to 100 on how much armor exactly. I don't know how to do this yet, I'm doing tutorials at the moment at the same time. But I just wanted to start using my knowledge of the tutorials before I continue. Help would be appreciated.

From what I learned writing Elimination, I believe this is a good way to give players full weapons/ammo:


function PostBeginPlay()
{
Super.PostBeginPlay();

DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGameContent.UTWeap_BioRifle_Content';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_FlakCannon';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_LinkGun';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_RocketLauncher';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_ShockRifle';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_SniperRifle';
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_Stinger';
}

function SetPlayerDefaults(Pawn PlayerPawn)
{
UTInventoryManager(PlayerPawn.InvManager).AllAmmo( true);

Super.SetPlayerDefaults(PlayerPawn);
}

To give a default goal score, just do GoalScore=X not DefaultGoalScore.

[Taboen]

Allright, thanks. And it worked aswell. I did it a bit different though, a configurable amount of ammo it adds to every weapon. Later on I want this to be for every weapon apart, but I still have to figure out how. First, I want to replace the redeemer with nothing. Because CheckReplacement does not work when extending UTCTFGame :confused:
Also, when I set goalscore=10 it does not give any error but the goalscore is 20, whatever I put it on.


This is what I have now:

DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGame.UTWeap_Stinger';
}

function AddDefaultInventory(Pawn p)
{
local Inventory Inv;

Super.AddDefaultInventory(p);

For ( Inv=P.InvManager.InventoryChain; Inv!=None; Inv=Inv.Inventory )
{
Weapon(Inv).AddAmmo(AmmoAddition);
}
}
/*

*/


function Mutate(string type, PlayerController say)
{
if(type~="amIworking")
{
say.ClientMessage("yes im working"); ////////// prints to screen .....

}
}

AmmoAddition=21
bWeaponStay=False
bAllowTranslocator=False
bAllowHoverboard=False

}

For now I want to be able to set the goalscore correctly and also let CheckReplacement work.

I have just extended CTF as if it is CTF you're playing. All thats changed for now is the defaultproperties and that you spawn with full ammo. Weird thing is, it also changes other stuff. When I make a cap now it doesn't say 'Red team scores!' like it should. Same when the enemy caps. It also doesn't report flagreturns. Only 'Red/Blue flag taken' or 'Denied!'. How is this possible?

[Joe Wilcox]

Agentq_71's method for all ammo is the best way to do it. Also, CheckReplacement is a mutator function, not a function in the GameInfo so having that there will never get called.

For CTF make sure your extended CTFGame_Content or better everything you are trying to do so far should be done from a mutator instead.

[Taboen]

Allrigth. But I don't want all ammo, I want configurable ammo for every weapon. :) I'll make a boolean for all ammo though, in case server admins want to put it on all ammo, their choice. Thanks for the info on that.

[Joe Wilcox]

Then do:



local int AmmoAmount;
local UTWeapon Wep;

Foreach P.InvManager.InventoryActors(class'UTWeapon',Wep)
{
AmmoAmount = FigureOutHowMuchAmmo(Wep);
Wep.AddAmmo(AmmoAmount);
}
You obviously have to write FigureOutHowMuchAmmo().

Error, Bad or missing expression in '='
What do I change?

I figured I have to provide the date for how much ammo exactly. Also you say it is obvious to use FigureOutHowMuchAmmo() if you dont have this information stored in your head, is there a list of these kind of things?

[ambershee]

You create a function called exactly that. What more could you possibly need to know?

[Taboen]

Hmm, so


function FigureOutHowMuchAmmo(Weapon Wep)
{

local int BioAmmo
local int ShockAmmo
etc etc

Super. FigureOutHowMuchAmmo;
class'UTGameContent.UTWeap_BioRifle_Content' = BioAmmo
etc etc
}

Is that what you mean Ambershee? I dont know what I'm doing..

[ambershee]

I think you need to do some reading up on how the language works;
http://www.moddb.com/members/21982/ambershee/downloads/9298/unrealscript-reference

Essentially, it's on the right lines, but a lot of what you are doing makes no sense at all; why pass a Weapon to your function if you're never going to use it? Why try to 'Super' your function when the function is clearly a new one in your derived class? These are things you should really step back and look at properly.

[Joe Wilcox]

FigureOutHowMuchAmmo isn't a function in the game. You have to make a new function called "FigureOutHowMuchAmmo()" and have it return the default value given a weapon.

[Taboen]

Thanks for your advice. I've been working on it. I did it a different way than you suggested though. But it works. Next step will be to make the variables configurable in an ini and set a defaultvalue to it.

And it works. Oh, still don't know how to let people spawn with shieltbelt. Could anyone give info how how to do stuff like that? :)

[EntropicLqd]

You do it in exactly the same way as you did with the weapons. Only use the class name of the Shield Belt object instead of a weapon.

You have all of the information you need to be able to do it. All you need to do is spend some time looking through the UnrealScript for the classes within the game.

Also, I'd like to re-iterate what Joe said earlier in the thread. So far everything you are trying to do would be better done using a Mutator rather than a Game Type.

Okey thanks. And as I said before, I know that. its just that I have many features planned for this mod, and I doubt that will always be possible with a muator. And even if it would be possible as a mutator, I'd like to keep that seperate of the CTF gametype, if people search for CTF they should find CTF not something completely different.

I am trying to do the shieltbelt now :)


Edit:
Added
DefaultInventory[DefaultInventory.Length] = class'UTGameContent.UTArmorPickup_ShieldBelt';
to the function postbeginplay and it now gives an error for that line:
Error, type mistmatch in '='

This is what I have now, still curious about how to add a shieltbelt :)
