How does the over heat system work?

Post by RED51 »

I'm trying to give my dc15 blaster an overheat, but I'm trying to make it so that it overheats after 25 shots. How would I do that?

Use these three values

HeatPerShot
HeatRecoverRate
HeatThreshold

HeatPerShot = Amount of heat for each shot. 1 is overheated. 0 is no heat.
HeatRecoverRate = Heat recovery per second. Allows weapons to cool down. If you set it to 0 and have a positive HeatPerShot value your weapon will be prevented from firing after a while.
HeatThreshold = The level (1 is full, 0 is nothing) of heat that your weapon must reach before you can fire again.

So for 25 continuous shots before overheat you should be able to use this....

HeatPerShot = "0.10"
HeatRecoverRate = "0.5"
HeatThreshold = "0.4"

This is assuming you want to be able to fire those 25 shots in 3 seconds (so shot delay of 0.12)
You might need to change it a little....Anyway hope this helped. :)

You can give a rifle weapon both rounds and over heat. I've been trying to find the right values for a 25 over heat for quite some time today.
