Output Event: BotMountToObject

[300spartan]

Well, I've seen the threads here (RAWKET LAWNCHAIR) and they're basically crap, and I have a request that is not completely ridiculous and handicapped.
Without much further ado, this basically makes things like onActivate -> Self -> BotMountToObject. That would mount the bot to you.
And lots of things can be done, like bot construction projects that won't be host-only.
Is this a stuffpost or does this have some bang for the time put into it?

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Kthx.

EDIT: 17 views, one reply. No serious discussion. D;

EDIT 2: More, 22 views, but no one except the corp cares a stuff about something that could allow people to make a revolution in weapons?

Bump. It's easy to make, right?

I don't quite understand what you mean

There's a mountplayertoobject, If you change the target to Bot it may work, but I don't know where to get the event.

That's not what I mean. I mean if you activate a bot spawn with the event onActivate -> Bot -> MountToObject (0) or onActivate -> Self -> BotMountToObject (0), then there'll be a bot mounted to your hand. Get it? And the (0) is the node number.

No one likes me.

I just don't quite understand how this would be useful...having a random bot on your hand doing nothing sounds more annoying than useful.

Not to defy the principle of the OP, but a Rocket Lawnchair might be interesting. Old guy sitting in his lawn, not doing much. SUDDENLY, rockets come out of his chair and he goes into space.

Ontopic: This might be interesting, but there aren't a whole lot of things brick or person-related which would be of value to mount to. Unless they mount to whatever vehicle is on a vehicle spawn.

The demonstration video was about a rocket launcher.

It's like building blocks. Combine this with VCE and it would be actually really great. You could make lots of weapons, with the bots being invisible and you mounting them to something else. You could make WEAPONS.

That would be a Player target.

That would be a Player target.

You mean onActvate -> Player -> BotMountToPlayer?

True, but they wouldn't be genuine Items.
And GCat has tried 3 times to mount a model to an item.

Yeah, they wouldn't be items, but also, what I'm thinking of is mounting an invisible bike with a weapon to your hand. Along the lines of that.
