I need a cog for a hotkey that changes the players saber mat (in other words color). I have addded 1 saber color by the way. Any ways my question is in the JkString.uni file, when you add a hotkey, do you just cahnge the 900 to 901 (message count at the top)?

In answer to your question, yes. Every time you add a line, update the count at the top. (like it says to do) [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

I think there is a tutorial here on massassi about adding hotkeys.

Thats not the type of cog I want. I want one like in IWP2, where you push the hotkey and it changes the saber mat.

If you know how to do hotkeys, just change the jkSetSaberInfo(creature, side_mat, tip_mat, base_rad, tip_rad, length, wall, blood, saber); side_mat and tip_mat to your choice and have it alternate.

------------------
As far as I can tell.

I don't exactly understand. How do you alternate?

Let's say the mat name is "saber_mat".

In the symbols section you would put all of the saber mats as saber_mat2 etc. and use arrays.

when the key is pressed:

Code:

i = i + 1;

if(i > 7)
{
i = 0;
}

jkSetSaberInfo(player, saber_mat, saber_tip_mat, etc etc);

So every mat under saber_mat would be in order from 1 to the number of symbols. saber_mat (the original) is saber_mat[0], so you should set i = 0 in the symbols section.
