Start with the same weapon

[Aldo15]

Hi

I wanna making a campaign, but I have a question: I want to start with weapon of previous mission for example: If I have a M16 and then I take a Ak74. I want to start with that weapon. How do I do that?

At the end of the previous mission use saveStatus to record the player's gear. Then in the Initialization of the new mission use loadStatus to return it to the player's inventory.

However, according to Nominesine you should use deleteStatus to make sure an entry is blank before writing to it with saveStatus.

Code: (exit.sqs) [Select]

deleteStatus "playerState"; player saveStatus "playerState"

Code: (init.sqs) [Select]

player loadStatus "playerState"NB. Like init.sqs the game should automatically run exit.sqs at the end of a mission.


If you fancy something more advanced try the WeaponPool Tutorial from Vektorboson's Homepage. It's old (dating from December 2002), but shows the functioning of the Resistance campaign with weapons carrying over in the player's group.

Edit: corrected the command in init.sqs - thanks to Raptorsaurus for pointing it out.

Thanks...

I'll try to make it, but if that script doesn't work, I'll ask you again

That is all good, except that the code in the init.sqs should be:

Code: [Select]

player loadStatus "playerState"
