easy, unrelated COG problem (I swear...)

I'm thinking that...
a. Everyone here has grown to despise me (because of the actions of my 'little brother', honest!)
b. My COG-related conundrums are far too complex for mere mortals to comprehend.
c. None of the COG savants have swept through here in the past 24 hours.
(or a combination of some or all, like all the COG savants despise me because my problems are too complex!)

This is a general editing/cog related problem, but since it's more cog oriented, I'm posting it here.

One of the main points in Life of Grismath level 1 was the use of a warhammer holdover from the Rites of Xanthus TC. After hours of painstaking work, I got the weapon to work once more ingame, actually damage people, and be comaptible with my custom master cog.

Here's the catch:

I can't seem to give the player the hammer (which replaces the crossbow) in-game through COG. I thought I was real clever, and as I was typing this, I tried to do it all with triggers and pickups, but noooo.

it works in-game, and when I use 'diediedie' to get all weapons, I can mount it manually. But otherwise, it doesn't show up. I thought it had something to do with the ammo, so I gave myself full ammo, and still no luck.

Code:

trigger:
if(GetSourceRef()==1337) {
 status=1;
 adventure=GetMasterCog();
 SendMessage(adventure, user0);
 player=GetLocalPlayerThing();
 SetInv(player, 12, 1);
 SetInvAvailable(player, 135, 1);
 SetInv(player, 135, 1.0);
 SelectWeapon(player, 135);
 SetCurWeapon(player, 5);
 ParseArg(player, "puppet=ky.pup");
 SetCameraFocus(0, player);
 SetCurrentCamera(0);
}
return;

[EDIT: The pup does change and is most definitely unrelated to the problem, answering an IM question by Ruthven.]

That's in one of the cogs. If any code would help you to fix this,a sk for specifics and I'll post it. But I don't know where to start anymore, let alone who i am. This has jellified my mind.

You're problem's doesn't seem to be that hard - if you're questions aren't getting answered, you should try rephrasing them so that they're more specific. If I have to skip over a someone's post, it's most often because I don't have time to write out a whole cog.

----------------

So your weapon doesn't show up? You mean it doesn't show up when you try to mount it?

Your trigger code is supposed to give the player a weapon in bin 135, and then make him use it, right? So why is SetCurWeapon() using weapon 5? If that's supposed to be the same as the weapon bin, then you'll need to put 11 for the 11'th weapon (it's not a bin number).

I'm glad you've clarified that SM [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

- there was another instance of something like this (Tazz, I think, was the topic starter), which involved a certain level of ambiguity with the contents of the DataMaster, with regard to SetCurWeapon()... that is if memory serves me correctly... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif]

[http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif]

Perhaps you could possibly clear this question up with the next release of the DataMaster? *hints* [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Hope this has helped (someone/anyone?) [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

I thought that the crossbow was weapon 5? I tried SetCurWeapon(player, 11);, and that didn't work either. Also, after the weapon is 'set' but nothing shows up, when I press G to cycle through the weapons, MotS freezes.

Perhaps there is some error in the selected message for the hammer cog? I'm far too rusty to write my own weapon cog for the hammer at this point, so I'm using an ever-so-slightly modified version of the original RoX warhammer cog:

I know, there's probably a TON of superfluous stuff in there, because I think Bel Iblis just modified a modified LEC cog (probably for the saber), and I was way too inexperienced back then to make it more efficient.

Here's the powerup cog that sends the trigger. Disregard the 'breakthrough!' part. ;p Due to time constraints, this is merely a crudely modified LEC cog as well. I tried using the call selected command twice in a row just in case that might actually mount the weapon, but to no avail.

Code:

# Jedi Knight Missions Cog Script
#
# POW_CROSSBOW_M.COG
#
# POWERUP Script - Crossbow
#
# [YB & CYW] + [RF] + [GRISMATH]
# BREAKTHROUGH!!!!!

I'm definitely thinking that there's some error in the mounting procedure or selected/activated procedure in the weapon cog, but I don't know where to begin looking for it or even solving it.

I hate doing this, but *bump*

I really want to release this level and this is the only thing holding me back. I can't think of any solution on my own.
