There is a 'button' in the pie menu in the Actor Viewer that says 'Reload Code' or some ♥♥♥♥. I want to reload the code for a device in the same way so that I can get offsets right without booting the game every 20 seconds. I seem to remember someone saying you can reload a .rte through the console. How so? |

Can't. Make a CopyOf = Soldier Light, rename it and give it the device in question. |

if you define a copy of a coalition in the index, I'm pretty sure you can. |

So technically I can make an actor with the null image and make it 'hold' this device? Would that work? EDIT: Tried it, successfully made an invisible actor with a head, torso and FG arm and holding the device. However, it doesn't reload the device's code when it reloads the actor's code, which is not surprising. Surely there is a Lua function to do it? EDIT2: I searched in the offline Lua docs and found these. What do they do? Code: PresetMan:LoadDataModule PresetMan:ReloadAllScripts |

Latter only reloads Lua, former may or may not crash/work. |

Found it. Search helped, but I had to be a little obscure. If you put 'IncludeFile = Path.rte/MyDevice.ini' into an actor, everytime you reload the actor it reloads the device you want. Found HERE, solved by |

You missed an important step which numgun caught (not Grif, my mistake. Sorry  )findude wrote: Make a CopyOf = Soldier Light, rename it and give it the device in question. numgun wrote: IncludeFile ... in the beginning of the actor's .ini file. This would allow instantly to reload the whole thing through the actor viewer. |

if you're reloading a device, then what you should do is put the copyof actor snippet at the end of the main device code. any includes will be reloaded automatically (though why anyone would split ammo/effects/weapons is beyond me) and there's no need to fiddle with another .ini |

All I've done is make another index that contains all my Devices , rounds and magazines, then put the IncludeFile of that ini into the invisible actor I made. works like a charm and even helps with the JointOffsets of the firearm. Case closed, and thanks for all the fish. |
