Client Weapons Cog

[TheTwistedSpasm]

I've got some weapon templates I want to test over multi, so I rigged up the client cog, listed it in the items.dat with 0x020 flags and a minimum bin of 1, and launched. It didn't work. I've checked all the cogs over with Parsec, they're bug-free. I set the client cog to print out a message once trigger: is called, and I don't get the text, so I think it's something in the items.dat.

Here's the items.dat line:


mpweaps 185 1 1 0x020 cog=00_mpweaps.cog


here's the client cog:


flags=0x240

I've changed a couple other things, like weapon cog names, fire rates, etc., but that stuff shouldn't have any effect on this, should it? Please Help! Thanks.

Holy crap! I've confused a true master of cog? I'm trying to decide whether to feel triumphant or suicidal.

So far I've modified the 2,3, and 5 weapon cogs, and added some templates. I've also added four hotkeys, two of which send messages to the weapon cogs. Is it possible that any of this could be interfering?

[gbk]

Possibly. You shouldnt discount anything at this point. http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif

You could post the weapon cogs that sends the trigger and the entire items.dat for further analysis, if you can.

Well gosh, this kinda stinks.

The FireProjectile()s were used before I put the SendTrigger()s in, to test the cog.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Come on, a little help here?

[*_Seifer_*]

Ummmmm :| ?

[Hideki]

First you could put

sleep(2);
SendTrigger(-1, 521, 0, 0, 0, 0);

in the startup of kyle_m.cog(or any default cogs preferably unmodified) to see which of those 2 cogs are having the problem. If it prints, then the weap cog has a problem, otherwise, the client cog has a problem or not registered properly.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

I put it in the kyle.cog, since I haven't messed with it yet. It didn't work. The client cog itself seems okay, so how in the world is this not working?

[Hideki]

That makes that the weapon cog has no problem and the problem lies either in the items.dat or the client cog. (Assuming that there is no double mistake in both cogs)

And there seems to be no problem in that short client cog, so items.dat is very suspicious.

And btw what are those "???" in the items.dat? Hope they aren't really "???" in your items.dat file, or fix it.

The only thing I notice is to change "Print()" command into "jkPrintUNIString" or "jkStringOutput". (Both shown in jkspec for usage or in my cog verb list)

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Um, unfortunately, those question marks are in the items.dat. I used to have those as comments, waiting to be implemented. I can't remember why I changed it. I'll fix it.

Ok, I fixed it. No effect. The more I think about it, the more I think that it can't be the items.dat. All my other modifications to it are fine. That would leave the weapons client? But it seems ok. This is bad, isn't it?

[This message has been edited by TheTwistedSpasm (edited May 30, 2002).]

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Ok, I borrowed a client cog from GaS and modified it to fire the 556 when it recieved the 521 ID, since I've been worried that my code is the problem. Well, I tested it, and it worked. Great huh? Here's the catch; When I added in the code for the error vector, it stopped working. But when I removed that code, the cog still wouldn't work. I think it's safe to say that the client cog is the problem. What I can't figure out is why.

[Hideki]

So, it may be the vectors.

Does it print the first sentence in the trigger message no matter what or does so only when using GaS version?

Try PrintVector(vectornorm); if it can print.
It will print "bad vector" if the vectors are not a valid value.

It could be the template, but in this case it shouldn't have a problem printing the sentence in the cog though, but you may want to check the template values and see if there may be something that can cause a problem.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

It will only print the message when I use the virtually unmodified GaS code.

As soon as I made any modifications beyond changing the ID and projectile, the cog stopped working. It is still not working, no matter what I do to it. Vectors or not. I wonder if it's my keyboard...

I can tell you right now that it's not the templates. I've tested them all. I'll test the vector tomorrow, and we'll see what happens.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Ach, I was wrong. It is the templates. As soon as I add any of the projectile templates to the cog, it stops working completely. Here's the latest Static.jkl...

the 00_happy.cog was a simple test cog I'd rigged to print a greeting on startup. Intrestingly enough, the greeting doesn't print. What have I done?

[Hideki]

From my 2 year old knowledge, I guess mistakes in template don't usually interfere anything with other stuff(unless like a template that is based by many is jacked), so, try increasing world sections count numbers

ex : world cogs 50 to world cogs 200

If your number of cogs in use goes over that number, it simply starts ignoring.

Just make sure to have lots of rooms for each sections like that.
Since it doesn't crash, 3do may not be the problem.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Set the world cogs to 200, no effect.

What puzzles me is this (sorry that I didn't really say this before); it seems like when I add a template into the symbols section, it screws the cog up. I don't even need to put anything about 'em in the code section.
I just don't get it. They worked fine when they were in the weapon cog, now they're a mess.

[Hideki]

Just about ANY template?

Even adding

template ghostStuff=ghost local

stops it from working?

[TheTwistedSpasm]

No, it doesn't. Seems I was wrong again. The problem is in the code section. I removed the FireProjectile, and the cog works now. Doesn't matter what the template is. The FireProjectile is identical to the one that was in my weapon cog, except that I put the sound stuff to -1, and I removed all those vector variables. That's just '0 0 0' now. I don't get it, this stuff should be bullet-proof. Why is it screwing up?

[Hideki]

So, this can mess up in place of the 556mm line(with ID 521)?

FireProjectile(player, ghostStuff, -1, -1, '0 0 0', '0 0 0', 0, 0, 0, 0);

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Nope, it didn't screw up. Seems it's just my templates. Please tell me you know what's wrong, I'm about to go insane here.

[Hideki]

See which template screws up. Even try _weapon and see if it prints, and keep on moving downwards of your template list.

Where it gets screwed is the template that's messed.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

But _weapon is taken straight from the master.tpl in JED, and after that is my templates. That means it's my templates. But they worked fine when they were local. Oh well, I guess I'll mess with 'em a little and see what happens.

[TheTwistedSpasm]

Well, I got out Template Maker, and recreated my templates with that. They're almost identical to the originals, but these work right. I still don't know why though. Oh well...

Anyway, thanks for all your help. Hopefully I won't have weird problems like these again. http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif
