Hello,

I have a few questions regarding weapons.

I want to make a laser attached weapon how do i make the laser not be a part of the weapon and not collide with objects? Please give me the script to this.

The other one is i want to make an 'AN-94' Rifle but as you may know AN-94 fires 2 rounds with each hit. How do i make a gun fire 2 bullets at the same time?

Thanks a lot.

Hi, and welcome to the forums!

If by "laser attached weapon" you mean laser sights, there are a few mods that use quite pretty laser sight scripts. They usually just produce a dot where you aim, but making a beam shouldn't be too much harder. It can be laggy, though. I suppose I could make a script for you. I don't have time to do that now, though.

I suppose you mean in bursts. Firing two bullets at once would require two barrels. Anyway, there is a vanilla script for 3-round bursts, so I think making a 2-round burst script shouldn't be too hard. However, making a gun shoot two bullets at once is extremely easy. Just change the ParticleCount from the round data to 2.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

Can you please give me a link to this laser?

And i tried looking into the round but it is already 3 and the gun still fires 1 round.

Thanks.

Do you mean firing three as if it was a shotgun?

You need to change the ParticleSpreadRange.

No. im afraid not. I mean 2 shots at the same time. Think of it like an ak47 but it fires two bullets everytime you pull the trigger.

I know how an AN-94 fires two shots like that, you're talking about burst fire.
Here's a lua script taken from one of the coalition pistols, add it to the gun itself to fire in bursts.
It shoots a three round burst, but it shouldn't take too much modification for just two bullets.

Im sorry if i am being amateurish here but how do i add it to the gun?

Thanks!

And i don't see a variable here that defines how many bullets it should fire.

Thanks.

Add this line:

under the "Mass" variable of the gun, and of course, write the file paths to the lua file, here's an example.


And for the number of bullets, I don't know lua coding so I can't answer how to change it, sorry.

Thanks a lot!

Anyone how to change the number of bullets? And The link to the laser would also be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hiya! Welcome to modding, etc.

To add a script to an object, you can use the following code:

The script that you're using (from what I can see) uses timers to allow the gun to fire for a certain amount of time before shutting it down to burst again. (I think) you could either lower the weapon's rate of fire to achieve a two-round burst, or shorten the first timer. (Line 16, self.burstTimer:IsPastSimMS(time in milliseconds)



EDIT: Ninja'd

Hey! Nice to meet you all too.

@KettenKrad It worked! Thanks a lot!

Now all i need is the laser.

Thanks everyone.

Here's an easy way to put laser pointers on your gun (the first post in the link). Follow the instructions there and you should be fine.

Im afraid it doesn't work. Thanks though.

Any ideas?
