Shooting and killing
2002-05-10, 4:14 AM #1
What is the cog command to make somebody shoot something at a cutscene (like blaster fire, turret fire or rail charge) and when it hits a stormtrooper (or a tusken or something) it dies?
"Tickets, please."
"You don't have to see our tickets."
"What?"
"These are not the tickets you're loking for."

From JK specs try this (but there might be some other function needed also):

AiSetFireTarget() Control
Sets the firing target for an ai
Use: AiSetFireTarget(thingref,Target thingref);

Then to kill the thing in the cutscene use:

DamageThing();
Damages a thing.
Use: damage = DamageThing(thing,flex damage,flag,damage causething); returns amount of damage taken

For example:
Code: 
Symbols
message damaged
thing AIkilled
flex damage=0 local
end

code
damaged:
  damage = DamageThing(AIkilled, 2000, 0x2, GetSourceRef());
  return;
end

DamageThing() damages a thing, it hurts the thing, it doesn't return a damage value. In the damaged: part, use Damage = GetParam(0) [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]
