Post subject: | A few questions |
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.

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

Add this line: Code: ScriptPath = Coalition.rte/Devices/Weapons/Burst.lua under the "Mass" variable of the gun, and of course, write the file paths to the lua file, here's an example. Code: AddDevice = HDFirearm CopyOf = Pistol PresetName = Burst Pistol Description = SavaGhost's burst pistol. Mass = 4 ScriptPath = SavaGhost.rte/Devices/Weapons/Burst.lua And for the number of bullets, I don't know lua coding so I can't answer how to change it, sorry. |

Hiya! Welcome to modding, etc. To add a script to an object, you can use the following code: Code: [tab] ScriptPath = Mod.rte/Path/Script.lua 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 |

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. viewtopic.php?f=61&t=16863&start=151 |
