simple/diverse cogger help
2002-07-12, 12:27 PM #1
Hey im wondering if anyone would like to help me with a mod im working on, I just need a sort of 'advisor' as far as cogging, im very new to it and my mod is pretty simple but its still over my head, let me know if your interested here or icq: 52848698 any help appreciated.

cogs im looking into:
-class system
-scoring system
2002-07-12, 12:50 PM #2
Let me say this first, before GBK or SaberMaster says it. Welcome to Massassi Forums or Massassi all together. No offense or anything, but you should try doing little things to a weapon cog first, and test it, but DON'T I repeat DON'T release a bunch of hacks onto Massassi, we have enough already.

Onto the job. Good references are JKSpecs and Massassi's tutorials Tutorials can help you get under way. The JKSpecs are a great reference source.
As for your mod. Post the cogs here and GBK, SaberMaster, and/or I will look over them, completly free of charge, because thats what we do. Right guys? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] Another thing go see is my thread on my most recent ship model. (yes I'm cross referencing and making a fool out of myself, but I want people to see [http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif] )

I have some experience writing weapon cogs... just like changing projectiles and rates of fire and all that... but nothing as far as "multiplayer features" so im wondering where the best place to start is?
2002-07-12, 1:05 PM #4
What do you mean by class system? The Scoring in JK and MotS is done by the Game's engine (which we can't modify) But to add your own scoring system, that would be cogging ex. CTF. That what you're talking about by scoring system?

okay the class system would be like:
player joins game, uses numerical selection menu (if possible) to join team 1, or 2
then when team is selected, be prompted for class (say light, medium, and heavy)

scoring system modifications I was describing were:
player does action 'x' and gets 'x' kills

or would that all have to be cogged through a map?

Yes, what you want to do is certainly possible, although the selection menu is fairly difficult.

Make some preliminary patches and read some tutorials to gain experience. I would recommend the DataMaster as a good reference and tutorial, but I'm biased. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

As a (no offense intended) n00b cogger, you might want to use "Cogwriter". It has a built-in syntax checker, that will catch some of the more common mistakes...


You can find it in the programs section here at Massassi.

The menu thingy would be easier in MotS, palyeraction (thinking of doing something like that in one of mine). No offense, but a n00b (aka noobie and newbie) coggers is the bottem of cogging, if you show us something good, you could very easily become a biginner, then intermedate, advanced (my level), then the masters (GBK, SaberMaster, and Hideki). That's how I do it anyways, don't know how you two (GBK,SM) do it.

Add int i local to the symbols section.
Add this right before the FireProjectile line.
Code: 
If(i<4) i = i + 1;
Else
{
   FireProjectile(blah blah this is the line said above ^^^);
   i = 0;
}
Also add this after startup: and selected:
i = 0;
That way, you will have to fire the four shots, no matter what you finsih on.
For the sound, just change the sound file in the symbols section and leave everything else it should work.

wheee okay im going for it... hopefully it will work but I kind of am starting to understand the layout of these weapon cogs... just some of the stuff is in arabic or something so ill continue staring

-------------------------
if (mode == 0)
If(i<4) i = i + 1;Else{ FireProjectile(); i = 0;}
{
dummy = FireProjectile(player, projectile, -1, 8, fireOffset, '0 0 0', 1.0, 0x30, autoAimFOV, autoAimFOV*2 );
}

(sorry I dont remember the small quote thing)
is that right or did I manage to screw it up?

You have an extra code block in there, Mischa. It should be something like:

Code: 
if(mode == 0)
If(i < 4) i = i + 1;
else
{
 dummy = FireProjectile(player, projectile, -1, 8, fireOffset, '0 0 0', 1.0,
 0x30, autoAimFOV, autoAimFOV*2 );
 i = 0;
}


The if statement runs the next statement (EG, i=i+1) or code block (EG, { code here })
if the condition (EG, (i<4)) is true. If the condition is false, JK ignores the statement
or block after the if statement.

If there's an else statment following that code and the if statement's condition was
false, JK will run the statement or block after the else; but otherwise, it will
ignore the code after the else.

The problem with the code in your last post was that you had two code blocks after the
else statement.

Pilot, what do you intend this code to do? You're stopping the player from firing four
times before he fires... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif]

As for the DataMaster, the link is in my signature. It's a JK Cog reference written
in HTML. It includes basic and advanced tutorials.

For text editors, there's CogWriter and EditPlus. CogWriter has a convenient syntax
checker, but EditPlus is by far easier to use. I've created some user files for
EditPlus so you can it's autocompletion, syntax highlighting, and cliptext library
features with Cogscript.

SavageX actually had a simple ingame menu system kind of like what you were describing in SS3 8.5. I believe it worked on the same principle as custom crosshairs for its graphic effect. However, the MotS playeraction verbs would make it a lot easier to do it 'cleanly'.
2002-07-17, 7:06 PM #19
It did not in fact work like custom crosshairs. I opened the cog to take a look, being the incredibly curious sort that I am, and discovered that he used jkSetPOVmodel(). There's a different model for each variation in the screen. Seems odd, but I think it looks a lot better than sprite-based menu systems.

Wow thanks for the help, I have messed around a lot with weapon cogs and gotten some results but I have a theory and im curious how to go about it, I have a general idea of making symbols/new blocks of code so my idea anyway was, on the stormtrooper rifle I was going to add a bit of code where the weapon would "holster" play a sound, then come back up (just use the holster animation, playsound, unholster) but the area im worried about is how would I get that code to "work" as a bind, like triggered by a button... where it would store the ammo but only a certain amount could be in the gun at a time?

Alright, so you want to make some sort of reloading system? Assuming you have your hotkey set up, here's what to do:

Put this in the activated message of your hotkey cog:
Code: 
player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
SendMessage(GetInvCog(player, GetCurWeapon(player)), user0);

This will call the user0 message in the cog of the current weapon.

Add this at the beginning of the fire message in the weapon cog:
Code: 
count = count + 1;
if(count > 4) { Print("Out of ammo. Reload."); Return; }


And add this message to the cog:
Code: 
user0:

disID = jkPlayPOVKey(player, dismountAnim, 0, 0x4);
SetMountWait(player, GetKeyLen(holsterAnim));
holsterTrack = PlayKey(player, holsterAnim, 1, 0x4);
if(trackID != -1) { jkStopPOVKey(player, trackID, 0); trackID = -1; }

Print("Reloading...");
Sleep(1);
Print("Reloaded!");

StopKey(player, holsterTrack, 0);
PlayMode(player, 41);
jkStopPOVKey(player, disID, 0);
trackID = jkPlayPOVKey(player, mountAnim, 0, 20);
SetMountWait(player, GetKeyLen(mountAnim));
count = 0;

Return;


Now make sure that you define all of the symbols used here. And for count, make sure you initialize it to zero in the cog's startup message. This system isn't perfect, but it's a good beginning for you.

Good luck. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Here's a cog that allows you to have a 3rd fire. You can change the User0 to the rearm instead of a third fire...
Code:

# FIRE3.COG

# Activates 3rd mode for every weapon

2002-07-20, 12:35 PM #29
Need to change Items.dat, and jkstrings.uni. Other then that, put all of those files in with your project and your good to go. Add this line to Items.dat
Code: 
reload_fire3            116             0       1       0x120   cog=fire3.cog
and this line to jkstring and update the count.
Code: 
   "ACTIVATE17"      0 "Reload/fire3"
There, now you should be able to reload using a new hotkey.

Or you can do it the simplier way.
Add SendMessage user0; between Print("Out of Ammo") and return; in the fire message and you don't have to have the hotkey or items or Jkstrings, so when you run out of ammo, it sorta auto-reloads. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

No, no, it should be a message, not an integer. Put this in the symbols:

I suspect that your hotkey may not be working. Follow this tutorial to make a hotkey (the DataMaster also includes a hotkey tutorial).

Try that and then see how it works.

wait... could it be the fact of WHERE in the cog I put the user0 reload part? because I put it in the "fire" section under the primary/secondary fire....
should it go under activate? or in its own entirely new section?

nope.. that wasnt it
