I did the template and it makes the sprite but it dosent shoot out an actor!
Somebody correct my code please
Code:
//This is a template that will allow you to create a Cloning Tube for an actor of your choice.
//To start, press (Ctrl H) and replace all "Mike" with the name of your desired Actor.
//Finish the rest of the template by adjusting the lines that have comments.
//To enable the Cloning Tube, go to (zzDispenser.rte/Index.ini) and delete the (//) in front of (IncludeFile = zzDispenser.rte/CloningTubeTemplates/Template.ini)

AddActor = ACRocket
   CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base Craft R
   PresetName = Cloning Tube Mike Craft R
   AddInventory = AHuman   //Change this to the type of actor you are using. (Actor) (ACrab) (AHuman) (ACRocket) (ACDropShip)
      CopyOf = UniTec/Mike   //Change this to the .rte name and name of actor. Example: Coalition/Soldier Light
      PresetName = Cloning Tube Mike Red
      Buyable = 0
      Team = 0
      AIMode = 1

AddAmmo = Round
   PresetName = Round Cloning Tube Mike R
   ParticleCount = 1
   Particle = ACRocket
      CopyOf = Cloning Tube Mike Craft R
   Shell = None
   FireVelocity = 0.0001
   ShellVelocity = 1
   Separation = 0

AddDevice = HDFirearm
   CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base Gun R
   PresetName = Cloning Tube Mike Gun R
   Magazine = Magazine
      CopyOf = Magazine Cloning Tube Base R
      PresetName = Magazine Cloning Tube Mike R
      RegularRound = Round
         CopyOf = Round Cloning Tube Mike R

AddActor = Turret
   PresetName = Cloning Tube Mike Turret R
   CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base Turret R
   MountedMO = HDFirearm
      CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base Gun R
      ParentOffset = Vector
         X = 0
         Y = 0

AddActor = ACrab
   CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base R
   PresetName = Cloning Tube Mike R
   Description = A cloning tube that creates Mikes for the Red Team.
   Buyable = 1
   Turret = Turret
      CopyOf = Cloning Tube Base Turret R
      ParentOffset = Vector
         X = 0
         Y = 50

Idea, needs some simple Lua though.

- Make a blank one.
- The user throws a sample of what you want it to create into it.
- It's then calibrated to create those.
- The gold cost of the device determines how fast it can generate them.
- Maybe have a means of re-calibration

Should be useful for any device ever. HDFs/HDs/TDEs
You could apply the same concept to other objects like actors and crafts too of course.

I'm assuming you can read the preset name and gold cost of un-held devices with Lua, am I correct?


You should make it (Im not being sarcastic or mean i want that) its awsome i would love that Azukki can you please make it :D

Combat Dispenser mod doesn't work for me...

ERROR:

Failed to load datafile object with following path and name:

Coalition.rte/Actors/Drone/LegFGMediumA000

---------------------------------------------------------------

Am I missing something? Last I Checked there was no drones directory under the Coalition Folder.
And yes I couldn't code if my life depended on it.

P.S I'm on a mac

EDIT: The medium typo was my mistake not the codes.

Now there's yer problem!
I believe it's spelt 'Medium' instead of 'Meduim', so try and delve into the code, and find said line, and change it.

EDIT: Disregard all the above. Maybe it has something to do with the slashes (/ and \), like in the other threads that you had the problem? I'm on PC, so it doesn't really affect me...

Edited My post, that typo was mine.
I think it's the drone directory, because I can't find any under Coalition.rte/actors/.

Would it be because mac release is only up to build 22?

Maybe, but it is most certainly because Macs can't read backslashes

sorry to revive this old thread, but whenever i try and make a weapon dispenser, i follow what the template says, and when i try and load it, the error says:

abortion in file .\system\DDTerror.cpp line 109 because: assertion failed: Stream suggests allocating an allocatable type in magazine::round::create! the last screen has been aborted to abortscreen.bmp


and i cant see anything wrong with the file.
