Ammo system

[Damien4545]

I want to implement an ammo system for my weapons. I don't know how, so if someone can give me a quick run-thru I would be most grateful <3

EDIT

I am looking for a simple  shoot 10 projectiles > run out > plays reloading animation

open up other weapons with ammo built in and see how they did it. i don't know how, but thats how i'd figure it out.

I tried. No work

what do you mean 'no work'?

It had "Support_ammo" in it. I know what it is, but I don't know how to get it to link with the weapons.

you don't need support_ammo to do it.
i opened up a T+T weapons pack and literally found it in a matter of seconds:

There is no setImageAmmo, that is just the ammo hud

First find the function for when the weapon is fired, then add an if(%obj.ammo>=1) {blah} and else if(%obj.ammo<0) { reload }

His picture shows a reload function

It isn't too hard, I believe you can do it.

Code: [Select]

function M1014Image::onFire1(%this,%obj,%slot)

{
%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]-=1;if(%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]<1)

{
%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]=0;%obj.setImageAmmo(0,0);

}
M1014Fire(%this,%obj,%slot,0.0015,1,0.02);

}
function M1014Image::onFire2(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]-=1;

if(%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]<1)
{
%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]=0;%obj.setImageAmmo(0,0);

}
M1014Fire(%this,%obj,%slot,0.0030,1,0.04);
}


There is no setImageAmmo, that is just the ammo hud

Code: [Select]

function M1014Image::onReload(%this,%obj,%slot)

{
%obj.toolMag[%obj.currTool]+=1;
    %obj.setImageAmmo(0,1);

}
As for the setImageAmmo you can create that yourself. Or write your own script to replace this one for something totally different.

I don't follow; I can't code. at all. I just change numbers around to my liking in the scripts

learn to code
you will get literally nowhere without knowing how to code and you're making weapons

bump?

How are we supposed to help you if you only know how to change a few variables?
