i keep looking but i cant find the lightsaber block odf, if it it even is a seperate odf from the lightsaber can someone please tell me where it is?

I think it's something like

CanBlock = "1"

But it was never included in the Lightsaber ODFs.

so if i make and odf with just that in it it would be lightsaber block?

(of course still keeping all the necesary stuff)

i want it to be a seperate weapon

I think so, but I can't remember whether it's "CanBlock" or "CanDeflect". I didn't use it.

well ill test it out and see

I am fairly certain that it's CanDeflect. Just remember that it blocks alot more than the SWBF2 version does. However, it doesn't block explosions, fatrays (which the AI won't use), and beams.

ok i tested it and it works, but you can still attack with it, how do i fix this?
here is the odf

Actually if you look at the Gammorrean Axe ODF there is a line: CanDeflect = 0

For my middle ages maps I wanted to make a sword that just deflects and the attack seperate. But I couldn't figure out how. Also were is the melee _ord?

there isnt one, but you can try to add the damage and maxdamage lines in there

and are you going to make a topic about your maps because id be happy to help

I am not sure if there is a way to prevent someone from swinging the block enabled saber atleast once. However, if one swing is allowed, you can give it some ludicrous reload time (or something similar). So, one swing, and then make them a good while before they can swing the block-enabled saber again.

well, napseeker did it so it is possible, but i guess that method will work

and i will try to give it the pistol anim so when you swing it doesnt look like it

have you tried adding the CanDeflect line to anything else other than the saber?

I've always thought that was how Napseeker did it- just doing that and giving the new weapon the saber model. If you look, when you try to fire it, it does the gun anim, making me think that it's a gun with CanDeflect on it, no damage, and very little range.

that makes sense, ill try it out

I had this problem and asked the maker of the redemption mod about it.
in my mod i made so that the swingtime is 99999999 they then only get 1 swing with it and no more.
ex.

I tried that in middle ages map but when you have it as your secondary weapon, you can't use your primary. If you have it so you have to switch then it is somewhat difficult to use. (That is for melee, probably wouldn't be so bad for lasers)
