oK, my idea is to make a camera that can be relaced by player (will be as inventory) and controled by him, until he press fire, then destroy it and kill all in range Someone can help?

If you're not using MotS, I don't think it can be done.

What are you trying to make - something like a guided missile?

*cough*key trapping*cough* there are ways to do in in JK, but I will keep that to myself for now. Sorry, but I want to keep it under total scilence how to do it. You understand, no? You can see a demo here. (I don't mean to inflate it, just a demo that it is possible)

oh yeah, forget, MOTS ofcourse.

Yeha, it should work like homming missile - but player can control it.

um, i dont want to mess with your heads, but...

use parcarg to change the palyer into a invisable camra, then repplace the palyer with a actor. that stands still.
sync the player and the actors health
you controle teh camra (palyer) and fire it off.
then when you exit replace the camra in teh palyer, and put the palyer where the actor is, destroy the actor, and ommit a explotion at the vaector of the eding point.

Well.. i know that this should work like this, but i have completly no idea how should cog look like. Perhaps someone can help?

Pilot, why be so secretive? It's not like anyone is going to patent your idea and steal the millions you'd make...

Ace, here's the way I did it. I'm assuming that you have a weapon to fire your missile-projectile and that you have a class cog for it. Have your class cog set the camera's to view your proj and start a thing pulse. In this thing pulse, take the player's torso lvec (using the FireProjectile() method) and give the proj this lvec - and either use ApplyForce() or SetThingVel() to give your proj velocity/momentum in this direction.

For movement, I'd recommend that you don't give your projectile any vel in its template, but instead, use ApplyForce() in your pulse to propel the proj. This will look a whole lot more realistic.

If you want, you can check for forward/backward and sideways movement for use in controlling the proj. Example granted, if your player is moving forward you can increase the speed of your proj, but be careful that you put the player back at his original pos or set his vel to '0 0 0'.

This method definitely works, but there is no good way to do this kind of thing for MP. It's just impossible to sync.

I do it because its who I am. You know that. Well, I haven't really released the keytrapping system and I am just paranoid. Thats all. Its also very complex and hard to implement, and if it doesn't work, it gives big headaches for all and I don't exactly feel like doing the whole keytrapping thing for something that I don't know will be released. (paranoia I know, but its me and I can't help it )

I think you should release the knowledge to the people. Knowledge shouldn't be guarded, knowledge should be free.

How...can you keep it under wraps if you just gave us a demo to download...?

if your making it for MotS just use the force farsight cog and modify it to work the way you want. that should make it very easy to do.

A demo doesn't tell how to what and use and implement it. People are stupid (yes, that includes me too). Well I'll get you started on the right track of thinking. Pulses and getting players vel and rotvel and reseting pos. Thats the bulk of it for the movement trapping. See if you can run with it.
