Mav's weapon pickup system [Solved]

Ok guys. This may sound a bit odd, but I need to know how Mav did it. The entire mod relies on that one piece of code. Except, I want you to pickup a weapon once you destroy a prop. Also, if someone picks up a weapon, does the entire soldier class get it, or the entire side?

Please, I really need to know this code! I usually come up with it on my own now, but this time, I need you help.

Thanks in advance.

If you look through his WIP for Bakura, you'd see pretty clearly that the dropped objects were flags and he used OnFlagPickup.

Also, I assume you know this, but it can't hurt to point it out just in case: changing a unit's weapon will cause a MP crash.

Yes I know all of that. Except the MP crash...

Well, I guess I have a work around for that...

So the weapon replacement code would be:

Code: Select all

SetClassProperty("inf_classname", "WeaponName1", "weap_inf_weaponname") ?

If so, that code would be under: OnObjectKill, right?

All of the sudden I feel real stupid...

If all of that jazz above is right, this can be solve-ified!

EDIT:
Just tried it and it works!

EDIT2:
Wait, what causes the MP crash? The flag pickup command? Or the SetClassProperty() command?

Entire class.

This may sound weird, but Mav's way actually seems like the easiest - I made it (flag version) and another (steal from enemy version) before bakura was released and flag works much better.

The weapon change itself, the SetClassProperty, causes the MP crash.

Yeah I know, I already tried it. And sorry, I thought Mav was the first.

Blast! Oh well, I guess my work around will work...

EDIT:
Oh yeah, can be solved.
