what you would do is use a script callback and mount an image to the player's muzzle node during the charge state (the charging emitter) and in the abort script callback you would delete said image then play the smoke emitter

this is what i desire. how would one mount such an image to such a node

i know that waiting for timeout would work but i would like to be able to release the charge early

no, they are actually overlapping, the charge particle has a very short lifetime so any overlap caused in the way you described would be minuscule
i tested it with the added delay state and the emitter will still continue through that and into the smoke state and onward

that does not seem to be the case unless im missing something obvious

Code: [Select]

	stateName[3] = "Smoke";
	stateTimeoutValue[3] = 0.4;
	stateScript[3] = "onMisfire";
	stateTransitionOnTimeout[3] = "Reload";
	stateEmitter[3] = rocketLauncherSmokeEmitter;
	stateEmitterTime[3] = 0.3;
	stateEmitterNode[3] = "muzzleNode";
	stateSound[3] = rocketFireSound;
	stateWaitForTimeout[3] = true;

	...

	stateName[5] = "Charge";
	stateTimeoutValue[5] = 1.5;
	stateScript[5] = "onBoltback";
	stateTransitionOnTimeout[5] = "Fire";
	stateTransitionOnTriggerUp[5] = "Smoke";
	stateEmitter[5] = bigBangChargeEmitter;
	stateEmitterTime[5] = 1.35;
	stateEmitterNode[5] = "muzzleNode";
	stateSound[5] = bigBangChargeSound;
	stateWaitForTimeout[5] = false;

both emitters will play at the same time on the same node

i have a wepon that charges up and it does an emitter while its charging and i want to turn off that emitter when the charge is released early. right now it continues to play the emitter for the full defined duration even after switching states
