3 round burst...

[Lord Kaje]

Any examples of how to get the stock StormTrooper rifle to fire a 3 round burst in secondary fire mode...?

look in the weapon cog in JKadvanced

Whoah...! I looked -- way too intense for me to figure out...! Thanx for the info though: that's some mean scriptin' I don't quite comprehend, I'll HAVE TO figure out what's going on in that .cog sometime...

How 'bout any other ideas (anybody?)...?

How about the modification of the character's AI file (PrimaryFire instinct, I believe can control the "burst mode" ;))? I thought that the ST rifle didn't really have 2 modes of fire, so you may be wise to modify the actor's template to include a "weapon" and "weapon2" attribute, so the AI file can distinguish between the two modes...

Just a couple of thoughts - that said it's well too early in the morning for some serious thought, but it at least gives you options to explore...

Hope this info helps :)

Wanna just get the players to be able to fire 3round bursts? No problem, in the fire message of the weap_strifle.cog, add the following lines below the fireprojectile stuff:


// Check if we use primary or secondary fire mode
if(GetSenderRef() == 1)
{
// Wait a third of a second
Sleep(0.3);
// Fire 2nd bolt
// Copy and paste the Fireprojectile line of the original cog onto this line
// Wait a third of a second
Sleep(0.3);
// Fire 3rd bolt
// Copy and paste the Fireprojectile line of the original cog onto this line
}

Replace the two "Copy and paste bla" comments and you are ready to fire three round bursts with secondary fire mode.

Does it work? You know, I didn't test it. I can fix it if it doesn't...I just didn't have any JK resources at hand when I wrote it.

I imagine in such a case, it'd be best to ensuer that the fireWait is 1.0 though. Other wise you could fire overlapping series of 3-round. Nothin big, but just mentioning it.

[Lord Kaje]

It works...! I used what you gave as a template -- Lo & BeHold, 3 round burst STrifle's a blazin'...! THANX...!

Oh, I don't remember what values I assigned to SetFireWait and/or Sleep: I did, indeed, have to tweak 'em a bit.

Thanx a million -- no -- THANX a BILLION...!
