Item Surface Switch Switch

lol.
i need someone to right me up a quick cog that allows you to put ghost positions in the level, and when u assign the ghosts with the cog, they will change gun 3do when a surface is activated... you can go off the rules a little bit, and perhaps make one switch or 3 or more, you pick. I just need it to switch from Concussion Rifles, to Rail Dets, or partially inbetween if i duplicate the cog in placed cogs and resassign diferent ghost positions. (sorry if im thinking outloud). have it so concs are the weapon when you start the level, and have this work for multiplayer. if this is possible it would be nice, if you dont have a lot of time on your hands, assign me a beta that i will test and inform you with the details. I will CreDiT you! Thx for you time!

DeathSythe, i just tested the cog and nothing happens when i activate the surface, i set up everything correctly, but when i tested, i didn't even hear a sound when i activated the surface.

while your editing this, make sure that both the host and joiners can hear it saying the sound throughout the whole level. Thanks a lot!

the cog works fine when i test it in MP.
is the item there when the level starts? if its not then the cog probably isnt being loaded or somthing.
i dont know what to do about that.

as for the sound playing all over the level replace both of these lines:
Code: 
PlaySoundPos(act_snd, GetSurfaceCenter(switch), 1.0, -1, -1, 0x0);

with...
Code: 
PlaySoundGlobal(act_snd, 1.0, 0.0, 0x0);
that will make the sound play all over the level.
