Shield Emitter

Post by {(ss)}E_Pluribus_Unum »

Hello,
I put a cis_weap_walk_droideka_shield on my jettrooper and whenever i activate/de-activate anything on that weapons channel it activates/de-activates the emitter. I'm assuming it's because they didn't expect the shield to share a channel so they left out a small bit of text.
I appreciate any answers y'all give :)

Thanks,
Unum

I don't think you can fix that ... It's like this in all maps which have the shield ...

This wont really be helpful if you need the shields to be able to turn on/off, but you could put permanent shields that regenerate on your trooper. I believe the thing you put in your .lua is:

MaxShield:whatever you want. 2000 is my preference
AddShield:again, whatever you want based on how fast you want shields to regenerate.

Yeah, unfortunately, if you give a droideka shield to a weapon channel, it will activate any other secondary weapon you will have there. Or if you try to use the other secondary weapon, it will activate the shield.

I would follow Silas advice. That line will allow you to have automatic regenerating shields so you don't have to activate them manually and it doesn't mess with the weapon channel.

In the unit ODF, put this

Code: Select all

MaxShield	=	"100"
AddShield	=	"100"
You can fill in your own numbers of course.
