Big Big Big Questions.

[Siva]

Okay, Here we go.

-)A)- Okay, If I was to make a server for my mod, DX:War, and ON said server, I would like a ranking system (Yes, I know this would involve a gametype). And when someone was to LEAVE said server, all they're personal belongings, Rank, awards, and etc. (Klop said something about writing it to a log file but I didn't understand.)

-)B)- A gun that removes all of someones weapons, and teleports them to a certain place.

-)C)- A grenade (That I meshed\textured) That would not be able to stick to walls, as I'd probably have to base it from a lam.

-)D)- A system where, If you was to go to a certain part of a map, get to a certain position, And a certain rank would automatically be given to them, as well as a message saying - (playername) Has been promoted to (Rankname).

-)E)- Computer System where you can email a certain person that has registered with the computer (Also stored on DB) and leave them a message, so when they come back, and log in, they can check they're items.

Why is everyone busy with a database as soon as DX: RPG has one...

Why is everyone busy with a database as soon as DX: RPG has one...

I've been thinking about a database since I first saw RPGCity.

I just was busy mapping.

Alex, I can understand that you had an idea, and now you feel it wont be as unique, but let him make his own shit.(no offense to anyoen there)

Lol, Alex is greedy

[Wasted]

Nah, I can uderstand him.

For C- Grenade that doesn't stick bla bla bla... , here's some code from FlakBomb(From the mods on my server) that might work for you

Code: Select all

Var(Special) float FuseTime;

simulated function PreBeginPlay()
{
ItemName="Grenade";
ItemArticle="a";
BlastRadius=256;
DamageType='Exploded';
bExplodes=True;
bBlood=True;
bDebris=True;
bBounce=True;
}

auto simulated state Flying
{
   simulated function ProcessTouch (Actor Other, Vector HitLocation)
   {
         
      if ( (Other != Instigator) && (Other != Owner) && (<YourClassName>(Other) == None))
      {
         if (Role == ROLE_Authority)
         {
            if (damagee.IsA('Pawn') && !damagee.IsA('Robot') && !damagee.isa('DeusExDecoration') && bBlood)
               SpawnBlood(HitLocation, Normal(HitLocation-damagee.Location));
         }
            PlaySound(ImpactSound, SLOT_Misc, 2.0);
         Explode(Location, vect(0,0,1));
      }
   }

   simulated function SetRoll(vector NewVelocity)
   {
      local rotator newRot;   
   
      newRot = rotator(NewVelocity);   
      SetRotation(newRot);   
   }

   simulated function HitWall (vector HitNormal, actor Wall)
   {
   local float speed;

   Velocity = 0.75*((Velocity dot HitNormal) * HitNormal * (-2.0) + Velocity);   // Bounce off Wall w/damping
   speed = VSize(Velocity);
   bFixedRotationDir = True;
   RotationRate = RotRand(False);
   if ((speed > 0) && (speed < 100) && (HitNormal.Z > 0.7))
   {
   Explode(Location, vect(0,0,1));
   }
   else if (speed > 100)
   {
      PlaySound(MiscSound, SLOT_None);
      AISendEvent('LoudNoise', EAITYPE_Audio);
      SetTimer(FuseTime,False);
   }
   }
   function SetUp()
   {
      local vector X;

      X = vector(Rotation);   
      Velocity = Speed * X;
   }

   simulated function BeginState()
   {
      SetUp();      
   }

      
   Simulated Function Timer()
   {
      Explode(Location, vect(0,0,1));
   }
}

simulated function DrawExplosionEffects(vector HitLocation, vector HitNormal)
{
   local int i;
   local Rotator rot;
   Local ExplosionLarge Pa;

      Pa = Spawn(class'ExplosionLarge', Self);
   if (Pa!= None)
   {
   PA.RemoteRole=Role_None;
   }
}

This should go on your grenade code, and it makes the grenade blow up if it draws to a near halt, or is in the level longer than the fuse length. If you want to use this, Don't make it expand ThrownProjectile, instead, do it off DeusExProjecile And, replace the bit that says <Class Name Here> with the name of the class, and you're ready to go

As for D- Player rank triggers, you may need the DXAG crew's help on that

[Gishank]

Lol, Flak is anti-air. Neways, Prodogy, even though i've got my own project @ gishank.tripod.com it doesn't mean i'm not helping you. (Because you haven't given me a second assignment.

B:

Code: Select all

simulated function ProcessTraceHit(Actor Other, Vector HitLocation, Vector HitNormal, Vector X, Vector Y, Vector Z)
{
   local float        mult;
   local name         damageType;
   local DeusExPlayer dxPlayer;
   local Teleporter   tele;
   local vector       loc;
        local DeusExWeapon W;
   local DeusExPlayer Player;

   foreach allactors (class'Teleporter', tele)
   {
      If (tele.Tag == 'LOCATION')
      {
         loc = Tele.location;
      }
   }

   if (Other != None)
   {
      // AugCombat increases our damage if hand to hand
      mult = 1.0;
      if (bHandToHand && (DeusExPlayer(Owner) != None))
      {
         mult = DeusExPlayer(Owner).AugmentationSystem.GetAugLevelValue(class'AugCombat');
         if (mult == -1.0)
            mult = 1.0;
      }

      // skill also affects our damage
      // GetWeaponSkill returns 0.0 to -0.7 (max skill/aug)
      mult += -2.0 * GetWeaponSkill();

      if ((Other.IsA('DeusExPlayer')) && (Other != Owner))
      {
         if ( Role == ROLE_Authority )
         {
            Other.SetLocation(loc);
            Other.SetPhysics(PHYS_Falling);
                                foreach Allactors (class'DeusExWeapon', W)
                                {
                                            if (w.Owner == Other)
                                                    w.Destroy();
                                 }
         }
      }
   }
}

C: just use the WeaponLAM code, but delete

Code: Select all

function Fire(float Value)
{
   // if facing a wall, affix the LAM to the wall
   if (Pawn(Owner) != None)
   {
      if (bNearWall)
      {
         bReadyToFire = False;
         GotoState('NormalFire');
         bPointing = True;
         PlayAnim('Place',, 0.1);
         return;
      }
   }

   // otherwise, throw as usual
   Super.Fire(Value);
}

Trust me to come up with overly complicated solutions

<3 mainman, Much <3.

Lol, always happy to help. I didn't test the code, so if something isn't working, post here, and I will try and fix it.
