Title: Sefe´s guided bullet script?
Post by: dmakatra on 03 Feb 2003, 18:03:05
Hi! Those of you who have tried SefeÂ's guided missile script knows what IÂ'm looking for. An exactly the same script, but with a bullet, of anykind. I donÂ't want to use setdammage cause it dammage every bodypart and I want one in the head! Does this excist, or can you do it manually in the editor? Plz help.

Thx in advance.

You can create bullets but they'll fall down in a straight line. But if you are running that script on OFP Resistance you can use the setVelocity command to let the bullet fly in a certain direction. Try this script:

("Bullet7_6" camCreate (_this select 0)) setVelocity [(sin (_this select 1)) * (_this select 2), (cos (_this select 1)) * (_this select 2), 0]

Call it like this:

[ Position, Bearing, Speed ] Exec "ScriptName.sqs"

where Position is the [x, y, z] position array, Bearing the compass bearing of the bullet and Speed the speed in m/s. I haven't tested this solution so don't expect that it works from the start. ;D

If you want it more sophisticated (provided the first solution works ;D) you can do it like this:

("Bullet7_6" camCreate (_this select 0)) setVelocity [(sin (_this select 1)) * (sin (_this select 2))  * (_this select 3), (cos (_this select 1)) * (sin (_this select 2))  * (_this select 3), (cos (_this select 2)) * (_this select 3)]

Calling:

[ Position, HorzBearing, VertBearing, Speed ] Exec "ScriptName.sqs"

HorzBearing is the horizontal compass bearing and VertBearing is the vertical bearing (ie. up or down). The other parameters stay the same.

Thx

Don't give up that quickly. What doesn't work? After my posts, I tested the scripts and they worked for me.

I found another way. I camcreate a bullet inside a soldier, he dies.

Thx.
