AHumans have a head, 2 arms, and two legs
ACrabs have 4 legs
What do Actors have?

Arms and legs don't seem to work on them.
I also assumption that adding arms to an ACrab does not work.

And are there any other actor classes apart from these?

bleeh, lol

If you know about Object-Oriented Programming, AHuman and ACrab are subclasses of the Actor class. ADoor and ACraft are also subclasses of the Actor class.

If you don't know about programming, just think of Actor as a "category" AHuman and ACrab fall under, you don't add things to it since it's simply a category.

I think he means 'Actor' as in the class 'Actor'. Afaik they can't have any limbs, and so far their only function is accessing the Pie Menu.

the Actor class is the superclass for the AHuman and ACrab classes, AHuman and ACrab inherit their pie menu functionality from the Actor class.

You double posted dude, delete one.


And well, as said, Actors are the most basic form of actor. For example, brain cases are Actors. Then we have AHumans and the rest of the stuff.

The only reason for me to use Actor is when I want to create an actor which works exclusively with lua, in that way I have to reduce the time fiddling with it's ini, which tends to be much simpler.

So no limbs then I guess.
Is there any way to make an Actor (the class) pick up or use weaponry?
I've tried to attach the dummy dreadnought turret on one, but that doesn't work either.

I don't think you can.

You'd have to use lua I guess.

Know any mods that might have armless creatures using weapons?

RETARDS

You can define null arms/legs etc to produce "limbless" actors that can operate how you want them to.

Thanks Guys!
