My guess is that you have chosen to use "trigger_once" in the mapping?

It's not a trigger, it's a weapon entity.

In that case, the weapon is deleting itself once picked up, I would assume.

Maybe that is the case, dunno.Drofder2004 wrote:In that case, the weapon is deleting itself once picked up, I would assume.
But I want the weapon you drop to be deleted before the spawn otherwise during gameplay their will be a whole pileup of weapons people drop

Right, but what's the new weapon that has been dropped called now?Drofder2004 wrote:In that case, the weapon is deleting itself once picked up, I would assume.

Not sure what you mean, the error is because we are referencing "self" which is deleted after the trigger?Rezil wrote:Right, but what's the new weapon that has been dropped called now?Drofder2004 wrote:In that case, the weapon is deleting itself once picked up, I would assume.

I mean now that we've picked up 'weapon' and dropped our currently selected weapon, can we assign a targetname to this dropped weapon(to delete it afterwards)?

Is the weapon dropped automatically by ingame code or you handling it by "removing" the weapon form the player and placing it manually on the floor?
If everything at this current stage is working with no error, can you post the new current script?
(Or jump on Xfire, I think you are now on my list
)

Have added you on XFire, didn't recieve any invitation, hence the confusion.
That's what I've gathered so far.
Code: Select all
main()
{
WeaponRespawner("redeemer", 10);
}
WeaponRespawner(targetname, defaultrespawndelay)
{
weapons = getentarray("redeemer", "targetname");
if(weapons.size > 0)
{
for(i=0; i < weapons.size; i++)
{
if(!isdefined(weapons[i].script_timescale))
weapons[i].script_timescale = defaultrespawndelay;
weapons[i] thread weapon_think(weapons[i].script_timescale);
}
}
}
weapon_think(delaytime)
{
classname = self.classname;
model = self.model;
count = self.count;
org = self.origin;
angles = self.angles;
targetname = self.targetname;
flags = self.spawnflags;
self waittill("trigger");
wait delaytime;
weapon = spawn(classname, org, flags);
weapon.angles = angles;
weapon.count = count;
weapon setmodel(model);
weapon.script_timescale = delaytime;
weapon.targetname = targetname;
weapon playsound("spawnsound");
weapon thread weapon_think(delaytime);
}
Ingame code, probably hard-coded from cod1 since I didn't find any reference to weapons and picking them up in any .gsc.Is the weapon dropped automatically by ingame code or you handling it by "removing" the weapon form the player and placing it manually on the floor?

Yes, its hard coded.
So, one way of doing this would be get a list of entities and filter them by classname or model, or you could even compare the entities origins and locate the neareast to the player and this is almost always going to be the weapon...
Also, might be worth testing to see if "ent.owner" is used in CoD2.
