Post subject:  CPU-controlled actor inventory
I'm trying to get actor's inventory, script works fine with player-controlled actors but for AI-controlled actor EquippedItem property is always nil. To check I use a simple piece of code:

Code:
   for actor in MovableMan.Actors do
      if actor.Team == CF_CPUTeam then
         print(actor.EquippedItem)
      end
   end


Although the contents of backpack seem to retreive correctly, the only problem is equipped item. Any reasonbale workarounds for this problem?

Well, you could do a check through all the MOs of the actor and check which one has ClassName == "HDFirearm" or ClassName == "TDExplosive".

I'm pretty sure that kind of code is used in mods for B24 or something.

EDIT:

CaveCricket don't kill me for taking this bits of code from your scanner!

Code:
for i = 1, MovableMan:GetMOIDCount()-1 do
      local gun = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i);
      if gun.ClassName == "HDFirearm" and gun.PresetName == "Scanner" and SceneMan:ShortestDistance(self.Pos,ToHDFirearm(gun).MuzzlePos,self.mapwrapx).Magnitude < 5 then


Well, I suppose you can modify the if to fit your needs, like "if gun.ClassName == "HDFirearm" or gun.ClassName == "TDExplosive" then actorweapon = gun" or something like it.

This is a side effect of the underlying C++ code. The EquippedItem property only exists for AHumans, but you are working with Actor pointers in the code above. The correct way of doing this would be to convert the pointer using ToAHuman() when appropriate.

Thank's a lot, now everything's back to normal :) Didn't took into account that actors and ahumans are not the same.
