Hat code

[atrey65789]

So I am coding something for a hat.. when you frob the dacoration, you wear it on your head.. however, the code that I developed doesn't work.


[code]function Frob(Actor Frobber, Inventory frobWith)
{

dxp = DeusExPlayer(Frobber);

loc.Z = dxp.collisionHeight+ 4.0; // can adjust its height to any meshes head.
SetLocation(dxp.Location + loc);
SetRotation(dxp.Rotation);
SetCollision(False,false,false);
SetBase(dxp);

}



function tick(float deltatime)
{
super.tick(Deltatime);

if (dxp != None)
{
loc.Z = dxp.collisionHeight+ 4.0; // can adjust its height to any meshes head.
SetLocation(dxp.Location + loc);
SetRotation(dxp.Rotation);
SetCollision(False,false,false);
}
else
{
SetCollision(True,True,True);
SetPhysics(Phys_Falling);
SetBase(None);
}

} [/code]

How about adding..

Code: Select all

Super.Frob(Frobber, frobWith);


at the end of the Frob() function?

EDIT: or maybe.. this..

Code: Select all

function Frob(Actor Frobber, Inventory frobWith)
{
dxp = DeusExPlayer(Frobber);

   if(dxp!=None)
   {
      loc.Z = dxp.collisionHeight+ 4.0; // can adjust its height to any meshes head.
      SetLocation(dxp.Location + loc);
      SetRotation(dxp.Rotation);
      SetCollision(False,false,false);
      SetBase(dxp);
   }
Super.Frob(Frobber, frobWith);
}

Have already... doesn't seem to be working... hmm... strange.

[~DJ~]

err.. maybe this? XD

Code: Select all

function Frob(Actor Frobber, Inventory frobWith)
{
   if(DeusExPlayer(Frobber)!=None)
   {
      loc.Z = DeusExPlayer(Frobber).collisionHeight+ 4.0; // can adjust its height to any meshes head.
      SetLocation(DeusExPlayer(Frobber).Location + loc);
      SetRotation(DeusExPlayer(Frobber).Rotation);
      SetCollision(False,false,false);
      SetBase(DeusExPlayer(Frobber));
   }
Super.Frob(Frobber, frobWith);
}

HAHA I will give it a try

[Poor]

Look at PutCarriedDecorationInHand() in DeusExPlayer. It doesn't need to be updated in Tick.

[atrey65789]

Ok will do

[~DJ~]

Oh, and perhaps try doing that too.

Code: Select all

function Frob(Actor Frobber, Inventory frobWith)
{
   if(DeusExPlayer(Frobber)!=None)
   {
      loc.Z = DeusExPlayer(Frobber).collisionHeight+ 4.0; // can adjust its height to any meshes head.
      SetOwner(DeusExPlayer(Frobber));
      SetLocation(DeusExPlayer(Frobber).Location + loc);
      SetRotation(DeusExPlayer(Frobber).Rotation);
      SetCollision(False,false,false);
      SetBase(DeusExPlayer(Frobber));
      SetPhysics(PHYS_Trailer);
   }
Super.Frob(Frobber, frobWith);
}


(untested)

I don't know why I was telling you to call the Super anyway.. like that would do any good, but oh well..
alternatively you can look into Deadalus08's Parachute mod, it attaches the chute' in your back.. just some adjustments and volla..
I'd give you my code for the Reinmutt I created.. (attached Horns to the Mutt) but I currently don't have it and besides it was very buggy.. so yeah.. good luck!

Hahaha I will try this.
