I can't say what you are doing wrong without seeing any code, so I wrote you a weapon script that calculates the distance between the aim point and the muzzle every time the weapon is fired:
Code:
function Create(self)
if self.Magazine then
self.ammo = self.Magazine.RoundCount
else
self.ammo = 0
end
end
function Update(self)
if self.Magazine then
if self.ammo > self.Magazine.RoundCount then
-- bullets are missing from the magazine so the gun must have been fired
local Parent = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(self.RootID)
if MovableMan:IsActor(Parent) then
print("distance: " .. SceneMan:ShortestDistance(ToActor(Parent).ViewPoint, self.MuzzlePos, false).Magnitude)
end
end
-- update the ammo counter so this script can't spawn bullets until the gun has been fired again
self.ammo = self.Magazine.RoundCount
end
end
if self.Magazine then
self.ammo = self.Magazine.RoundCount
else
self.ammo = 0
end
end
function Update(self)
if self.Magazine then
if self.ammo > self.Magazine.RoundCount then
-- bullets are missing from the magazine so the gun must have been fired
local Parent = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(self.RootID)
if MovableMan:IsActor(Parent) then
print("distance: " .. SceneMan:ShortestDistance(ToActor(Parent).ViewPoint, self.MuzzlePos, false).Magnitude)
end
end
-- update the ammo counter so this script can't spawn bullets until the gun has been fired again
self.ammo = self.Magazine.RoundCount
end
end
Thanks for the codes. I'm modding the Coalition's Revolver cannon.
Today i did several tests and i figured out that the actual reason why the ViewPoint i get in the grenade's Create() function is incorrect:
the Revolver cannon has a recoil effect when it fires. and the camera will be dragged back. which cause the ViewPoint to be much closer than what i want.
Any way to disable that recoil? i found that the Revolver cannon has already used the tricks of using an AEmitter to spawn the actual shots instead of the HDFirearm itself, just like the Heavy Sniper Rifle. that sniper rifle works good, no recoil at all. but no matter how i change the ini, the revolver cannon's recoil is still there.
Here is my ini and lua.

After another tens of tests, i finally got the line that caused the problem:
Thanks again to your help.
