Shame it's a few years too late

Update:
Firing through multiple walls works now.
Todo:
balance damage and maxwall distances
do some bulletspread

All done.
1. Wrote my own bulletspread function
2. gave a maxdistance (if you fired a shotgun towards a wall that was really far away, there still were bulletholes there. Now there arent.

The lite script is released
http://pastebin.com/ZcynD5pr
For educational purposes only
Or use in a mod with credits to me in menu and in readme file.

Lite version does not support:
Mg42s
Shotguns
Multiple walls
Bulletspread

Those features are only available in the private version, which is not released.

Very, very nice code. If only you had done this during CoD2's prime, this would've been a feature of many top mods, no doubt.

In my honest opinion, no matter how nice this code is to release, I would personally keep it private. That way, you can verify that this code is your own doing and it can be used as part of a portfolio/cv.

My only criticisms would be that it is a little messy in formatting, but that may just be pastebin.
And secondly, I would also add a lot of commentary, explaining each stage and function as the code advances.

Well done

[IzNoGoD]

Part of the release not having comments is security through obscurity.
About portfolios: Im not in the coding business, so its not much of a concern.
Also, i almost have the pro version done, which adds all those features i listed that were not gonna be released.

IzNoGoD, very good mod and perfect work;

The only thing that would be desirable add procedure to analysis of textures which could to be raked through
something like from extreme landmine installing:

allowedSurface(plantPos)
{
startOrigin = plantPos + (0, 0, 100);
endOrigin = plantPos + (0, 0, -2048);

trace = bulletTrace(startOrigin, endOrigin, true, undefined);
if(trace["fraction"] < 1.0) surface = trace["surfacetype"];
else surface = "dirt";

switch(surface)
{
case "beach":
case "dirt":
case "grass":
case "ice":
case "mud":
case "sand":
case "snow": return true;
}

return false;
}

In your case such objects as concrete and iron shouldn't make the way. And such as the haystack or a wooden crates on width exceeding parameters don't make the way.

Sorry for my bad english

[IzNoGoD]

As a matter of fact, im already using such code in the pro version of the mod, but not with "allow" or "disallow"

Code: Select all

getsurfacepenetrate(surface)
{
	switch(surface)
	{
	case "bark":
		return 1;
	case "brick":
		return 1.2;
	case "carpet":
		return 1;
	case "cloth":
		return 0.8;
	case "concrete":
		return 1.8;
	case "dirt":
		return 1.1;
	case "flesh":
		return 1;
	case "foliage":
		return 1;
	case "glass":
		return 0.6;
	case "grass":
		return 1;
	case "gravel":
		return 1.3;
	case "ice":
		return 1.3;
	case "metal":
		return 2;
	case "mud":
		return 0.8;
	case "paper":
		return 0.7;
	case "plaster":
		return 1.4;
	case "rock":
		return 2;
	case "sand":
		return 0.8;
	case "snow":
		return 0.9;
	case "water":
		return 0.3;
	case "wood":
		return 1;
	case "asphalt":
		return 1.5;
	default:
		return 1;
	}
}

As you can see, metal is very hard to penetrate (2).
The vars still need a bit of tweaking though
