What is the difference between a weapon that an actor is currently holding in their hand and the same weapon after it is dropped by the actor? I noticed that the Create(self) and Update(self) functions are not called when an actor pulls the weapon out. However, they are called when an actor drops the weapon (including when a dropship drops it). So something must be different between them. |

Lua for now doesn't word on heldevices, but as soon as they are dropped, seeing as they aren't held anymore, lua works on them. You can of course get around it hackily. |

Weapons when held are considered attachables, basically. |

HDFireArms are HeldDevices and HeldDevices are Attachables. I found this function in the documentation for HeldDevice. Quote: Activate Activates one of this HDFirearm's features. Analogous to 'pulling the trigger'. Arguments: * None. Return value: None. So when an HDFireArm is held, it is an attachable (or HeldDevice) but while it is on the ground it is an HDFireArm? Activate() is a function of HeldDevices, so does this mean a gun can still shoot while it's on the ground? Or am I still not getting something? |

Yup, it'll work. Mail made heatseeking gatling guns using Activate(). |
