Force Heal? [Solved]

PvtParts · Post by **PvtParts** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 11:48 pm

Is it possible to create an area affect buff (like all_weap_inf_buff_health or whatever) that heals the user, without necesarily healing others?

I've been having trouble and frankly am totally lost.

Basically, I want force heal, but its stupid and unrealistic that everytime I want to do it I have to be near an ally. I considered making the conelength/range infinite, thus I would always be near an ally, but then I'd be healing everyone on the map, which, again, is very unrealistic.

I don't mind if it heals people near me, but it absolutely has to work when I am alone.

If anyone has any ideas, by all means let me know. I'd definatly appreciate some help with this because I'm totally lost.

AffectFriends = "0" // default is 1. should the ordnance affect friends.
AffectEnemies = "0" // default is 1. should the ordnance affect enemies.

Put that in your all_weap_inf_buff_health_ord

doesn't that make it do nothing, since it usually only acts when it can effect friends or enemies

Huh. You'd figure the ordnance would still fire.

I'll definatly give that a try, but Dann raised a good point.

Usually, though the ordanance will fire perfectly, it will only affect if it affects others, I have AffectEnemies = "0", so those others are my friends.

Now, I know this is setup with the

Code: Select all

ApplyOnOwnerIfOnOthers = "1"

line. So, who knows.

I'll post up the actual odfs, so you all can see what I'm working with and whatnot.

Here are the originals, and this afternoon we'll see if they are going to be changing (AffectFriends = "0") or not. Would AffectPlayer = "1" work?

Anyhow...

If it doesn't work, I can tell you how to do it in the Lua, but the odf way would be much better.

PvtParts · Post by **PvtParts** » Thu Dec 21, 2006 8:41 pm

Nah it didn't work. Expected effect - no effect, on anyone.

This lua thing, will it work as a weapon.

....I really dont want to go with addhealth...it either does you no good, or unbalances the game.

Fusion cutter odf, sans msh and set to effect humans.

PvtParts · Post by **PvtParts** » Thu Dec 21, 2006 9:33 pm

to clarify, just call for no msh in odf?

EDIT: works nicely. Only gripe is the lack of any fireing effect at all, but I put in a nice new sound so its all good.

Thanks everyone.

(ps if anyone wants I can post odf, its really simple but whatever)
