Change functions of the same weapon

[chilmans]

How to change the functions of the same weapon, like the portalgun changes to gravitygun-mode?
How would I let the RL change to a gun-mode (so it shoots gun bullets)?

I tried to find it in the portalgun code, but it was so much that I couldn't find which of the lines were the lines that let it change

The portal gun 'changing mode' actually mounts a gravity gun that looks like the portal gun.

or you could just do:
if(somethingThatSaysYouAreInAnot herMode)
   return theOtherWeapon::whateverFunctionIsCurentlyBei ngCalled()

Quite vague, but it might help.

but what exactly is the code for it?

Search for "servercmdLight".

Code: [Select]

function servercmdLight(%client)
 {
  if(isObject(%client.player) && isObject(%client.player.getMountedImage(0)))
  {
   %name = %client.player.getMountedImage(0).getName();
   if(%name $= "pGunBlueImage" || %name $= "pGunOrangeImage")
   {
    if(%client.player.lockPortalPickup)
    {
     serverPlay3d(PgunInvalidSound,%client.player.getTransform());
     return;
    }
    %client.player.mountImage(pGunPickupImage,0);return;
   }
   else if(%name $= "pGunPickupImage")
   {
    if(%client.player.lockBluePortal)
    {
     serverPlay3d(PgunInvalidSound,%client.player.getTransform());
     return;
    }
    %client.player.mountImage(PGunBlueImage,0);return;
   }
  }
  Parent::servercmdLight(%client);
 }
I see the code is based on the light function.
How would I let it change on pressing mouse2? (alternate attack-button)

Look at the Flak Cannon.

You can find pretty much everything you need by looking at mods with similar functions...

I didn't knew flak cannon had a second attack ;D

[Space Guy]

Well, if you're already looking at the Portal Gun very similar code is there too.

[chilmans]

yeah, I have the code now, thanks
