Title: Using a trigger to reload?
Post by: MattTheJew on 12 Mar 2003, 00:25:33

I want to make a mission where you just have a LAW launcher.  But, having the capability of only carrying one missle around makes this somewhat difficult.  I don't want to have to put ammo crates every few meters.  Is there a way in which you could use a trigger to recognize when your one missile is gone and then re-equip you as necessary?  I'd appreciate any info.

Condition:

(player ammo "LAWlauncher") < 1

Activation:

Good deal, it worked for the LAW thanks a lot.  I also tried it with the CarlGustav Launcher and it didn't have the same effect.  I tried different operators (e.b. > 0, < 1, <= 0 ) but it didn't do anything.  I imagine it's because you can only cary one missile at a time?

Try this:

!("CarlGustavLauncher" in magazines player)

This should work for you. YOu could do a similar thing for the law:


!("LAWLauncher " in magazines player)
