Title: First round, have gun, second time start with no guns.
Post by: JasonO on 31 Jul 2006, 21:28:30

HI

I have just tested a co-op map i made and the first round we did, was ok.

After the 2nd go we started, but had no weapons, and this happened everytime after until we both restarted ofp.

I have a script to add the weapons, and in the units init line i have it so it executes the script

Soldiers INIT field

Code: [Select]

removeallweapons this ; [this] exec "weapons.sqs"
weapon.sqs script

Code: [Select]

; Get the unit parameter given
_unit = _this Select 0

; Strip the units current gear
RemoveAllWeapons _unit

; Add the new gear to the unit
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "M16"
_unit AddMagazine "GrenadeLauncher"
_unit AddMagazine "GrenadeLauncher"
_unit AddWeapon "M16GrenadeLauncher"
_unit SelectWeapon "M16GrenadeLauncher"
_unit AddMagazine "BerettaMag"
_unit AddMagazine "BerettaMag"
_unit AddWeapon "Beretta"
_unit AddWeapon "Binocular"
_unit AddWeapon "NVGoggles"

Exit
edit: Ive just noticed that im running removeallweapons command twice, do you think this might cause the unit to start with no weapons 2nd time round?

In the inits field there is no need to use RemoveAllweapons as this is done in the script;
Do you have respawn on ur map or what do you mean by 1st & 2nd round?

Anyway, the script will only work once in ur missions;
have a killed eventhandler to make the script work each time or use triggers;

There's enough examples in many threads
perform a search on "weapons respawn"

What i mean is, we finish the game, and go back to player reassign. If the person who had a gun, goes same person when we launch again. The gun isnt there. As if the weapon script isnt loading 2nd time around.

I try removeing the removeallweapons this, in the INIT line when i get around to it.

I have experienced similar weirdness related to unit init fields.  Calling the weapon script from your init.sqs instead would probably be more reliable.

Ahh didnt think of that.

Seems easier, I will try that then.

Thanks.
