[SOLVED] Mount Player/Bot to a Vehicle?

[Platypi]

How do you manually mount a player or a bot to a wheeled vehicle? I tried...

Code: [Select]

WheeledVehicle::mountObject(%this, %player, %mountPoint);
// E.g. 28151.mountVehicles(findClientByName("SadBlobfish).player, 0);


Code: [Select]

Player::mountVehicles(%this, %vehicle, %mountPoint);
// E.g. findClientByName("SadBlobfish").player.mountVehicles(28151, 0);
and neither worked. It is possible I am using these functions incorrectly. I was also going to try to invoke Armor::onMount(%this, %obj, %mount, %node), but I'm not sure how to properly call it, and I figured this function is probably triggered by the proper mounting function.

Here is the trace of a player colliding with and entering a vehicle if it helps. Perhaps someone will see something I didn't:

[Ad Bot]

[Conan]

%obj.mountObject(%mounterObj, %node); where %node is any number (aka mountSlot, or mount# bone as named prior to export)

[Conan]

addendum: onMount is called after mounting, not a function you can call to mount someone on something

[Platypi]

%obj.mountObject(%mounterObj, %node); where %node is any number (aka mountSlot, or mount# bone as named prior to export)

Yeah, that works. I have no idea why this:

Code: [Select]

WheeledVehicle::mountObject(%this, %player, %mountPoint);
// E.g. 28151.mountVehicles(findClientByName("SadBlobfish).player, 0);


wasn't working last night. Must have been doing something stupid.

Marking as solved.
