I thought of a neat idea and if it can be done i'd love to get some people together and work on it.
Since players or bots can be mounted to other players, I thought about a weapon system that mounts a weapon that would be an AiPlayer to the players hand.
Why? Because Other than vehicles, players are the only thing that can have hidden, completely customizable nodes.
This means we can make weapons that can have
- Custom Body
- Custom Attatchments
- Custom Rectiles
- Hands (If you really want to)
- Tumble Physics on item drop (This will probably need to be a toggle preference. If its off maybe make the dropped item a dead player?
All being completely colorable as well
the downside would be that
(Please correct me if i'm wrong)
- No LODs
- No eyeOffset
- No correctMuzzleVector
- No Weapon State System (maybe a workaround that mounts a blank weapon image to the bot?)
If and if its possible, anyone down to help with it would be really great. I of course would make all the models and some simple scripts
